In the 5 years the sub-forum has been around, not one person has posted a single impressive photo. Just empty claims of amazing progress and how great the protocols are.
What a clown
Darden has been around since the bodybuilding scene since the 70s, wrote a ton of books with thousands of before and after pics with all different methods of training
and here you are suffering from severe DDS
like i said, what a clown
Thanks I understand
I don’t have anything against Darden. If I did, I probably would not come to this forum. In general, the man himself is pretty quiet here or brief in his responses. That’s understandable; he’s been writing, teaching/coaching for decades.
To the dude who keeps bringing up the subject, I definitely will not be posting any shirtless pics here (or anywhere on the internet) for a few reasons. I’m not bodybuilder material, but I’ve been training (not just resistance training) and doing sports and learning for most of my 68 years. Over time, I came to look pretty fit, and you can tell I lift, but I ain’t winning any awards lol. But I know.
That’s probably why I’m a bit snarky about outlandish claims and magic training techniques and food supplements. They had a lot more impact when I was 12. I get it, clickbait and the need for NEW & SALES, but come on.
So mostly I like and get inspiration from a handful of regular posters here and pick up a few tips or ideas, but all in all, it comes down to a few principles. You do not have to have a braille plan that you follow in lockstep.
I like brief, intense, and safe.
PS - what’s with the dentistry obsession?
Darden Derangement Syndrome
Yeah I got it lol. Very worrisome.
I’m not sure you are granted the terms to say this, as you are as much of a ghost on here there is. I have not posted a pic on here as I don’t need others appreciation of my accomplishments. I only compete with myself. But, if to be compared, I have decent genetics and look like the part - 225 lbs and 12% bodyfat - You do the math.
As always, respect to all the posters here. We all have our points of view and there is no single truth.
BUT
I notice that again (?) we have one of those posters that starts a topic AND NEVER ENGAGES WITH THE REPLIES. 27 posts over 10 days …
Is this some kind of weird trolling ?
Is someone trying to generate activity on the forum ?
