I think he got that from Bill. But Bill also did a allot of cleans which probably carried over to his deads also.
Random thought⊠i think allot of people get the text book definition of effort and intensity confuse .

Yup: that was how the program worked. Cleans, shrugs, partials, etc. Just no actual full deadlifts from the floor. A totally viable methodâŠunless someone ELSE does it, and then theyâre stupid because theyâre not doing the deadlift, haha. It was a total clownshow.

I have bittersweet feelings about the now-vanished bodyfat percentage thread. There were some quality side conversations.

I agree. But what happened overnight was pretty weird. I caught up on it before I had my coffee. Kind of a surreal start to the day.

What happened? I stopped following a couple days ago.
OP went religious fundamentalist, called people fags, mods shut it down.

There were a few serious attempts to stay topical, attempting to talk about training methodology. Then some weird âI donât want to do a cookie cutter programâ where he claimed 5/3/1 and texas method etc werenât cookie cutter programs.
And CT chimes in and gives some great bodyfat discussion, showing how one of his guys who was â10-15 pounds awayâ was actually 40 pounds away.
And somehow⊠I really donât remember the path⊠but somehow it ended up like ^
Lots of insults bandied about.
Oh. And youâre vs your. Lots of egregiously misused homophones.
Checks out. I felt gross continuing to engage, so I backed off. He seemed mentally unwell, and I even started to feel bad for him.
I think dude thought this word was a slur of some kind. Thats when he got all wound up.
Confession: Iâve always really liked Thibs approach to people and training. He seems like the nicest guy in the world.

Yeah, and he seems like the type of coach that would charge you for an hour session, and 2 hours later still be sharing all his wisdom, then tell you not to worry about paying for the extra hour.

I should have. I tried to be kind but he kept trying to kick me in the nuts so I went grammar Nazi on his inability to comprehend the difference between your and youâre - explained it at least three times.
I think @SkyzykS is right - I never thought about it.
Anyway, live and learn.
Yep. Whole thing went down if flames like âHomophone? Iâll show you homophoneâŠâ.
What can ya do? There just wasnât much to work with there.

It seemed like you were aware you were in a pointless internet pissing contest for funsies though. He most definitely was not aware and was taking everything literally.
On a side note, do you think he has any friends IRL? Lives with his folks? Ever had a serious girlfriend?

I agree. I got upset with the continued regurgitation of verbiage he had read - 531, cycles, calories in calories out - now I think it was a defensive mechanism to cover up a mental deficiency.
My grandmother had Alzheimerâs and had a rap - so nice to see you again, how have you been - had no idea who you were. I think the OP was doing something similar.
There was a dude in the Pharma section a few years ago that kept using terms like pinning, slin pins, etc⊠think it was the same gig.
I am not sure why that triggers me - probably because I feel like an impostor myself.
Yes, I was, and that is actually why I feel bad about it. Kind of a cat and mouse thing where the mouse has no chance. I should have walked away.
Oh well, moving on.
