Woke up this morning….

Just great.

I really need to avoid training content on certain social media outlets. The level of stupid is lowering my IQ and at times makes one of my eyes twitch.

You guys are both experienced enough to know who/what to avoid. Tougher, too.

In general, I don’t follow fitness social media. I don’t see what I’m going to get out of it. I like books. I’ll listen to podcasts. Basically: long form stuff. Social media is all about clicks. It’s showbiz, not education. It’s something I teach my kid as well.

Same here… the social media stuff B.S. Burns my ass simply because you get all these new guys who are getting fed a bunch of horse shit 90% of the time. I honestly feel for those guys that dont know any better.

As is always the case in the world of fitness: those kids needed to pick better parents. This time, it’s less about genetics and more about being taught what social media is and isn’t.

I’d say what’s more frustrating is the particular flavor of BS that’s getting fed. WE were told that ANYTHING was possible, NO ONE was doing steroids, and everything was just hard work, lots of milk, and gold old fashioned protein powder. Now the opposite is getting sold: EVERYONE is on gear, NO ONE works hard, and you should NEVER lose your abs in pursuit of muscle. At least the lies WE were raised on gave us a chance to fly too close to the sun. These dudes aren’t even trying to flap their wings.

Called off work… Will be no lifting today again.

@T3hPwnisher im so on the fence if I truly want to actively involve myself with direct dialog with the new expert poster in the new thread. Opinion?

When I hear “direct dialog”, I interpret that to mean calling a spade a spade, vs indirect dialog, where we infer and imply.

I’d prefer direct dialog, if any at all. Otherwise, no dialog.

Got you… well i did ask a direct question so the poster could establish their qualifications. As expected the opportunity past. Same old story.

Yup. His silence speaks volumes.

Which, you can certainly point out, with direct dialog :slight_smile:

I love popping into some of these threads and watching a few of you guys rip into someone without ripping into them. I wish I had popcorn…

I dont rip into anyone… i just making a observation. If said poster gets upset . That normally says more about them than anything else.

Years ago a guy wished death on me on here.
