Matty, itās not even about semantics or dislike, at least for me. Itās about a poster who whined over and over that others said HIS method was wrong or made little sense. Then, when others point out that he did the exact same thing, he denied it, diverted the conversation, made personal attacks, then here at the end just flat out ignored it.
The "arguingā was about blatant hypocrisy and the inability to say āOh, youāre right, I did say that. My badā. Instead, that fact gets ignored and the discussion gets framed around how āmaybe if the little guys were in the gym instead of arguingā or āIām bigger than you so you donāt knowā.
Have you seen him ONCE address this issue below?

I understand Cue, Im not trying to defend X, as we all know he can defend himself. I do however feel even if he did admit he was wrong, some people (not you specifically) would still come in this thread simply to bust his balls just to turn the thread into a shitstorm. Seriously there has been posters in this thread just to make fun of his lunges. If you wanna see something really comical watch me do a lunge! I dont even have the excuse of an accident![/quote]
I agree with both of you 100%. X was ridiculous and some butthurt posters couldnāt help themselves.
And I didnāt see this infamous lunge video but as I havenāt ever performed a lunge, I canāt imagine Iād look good, either.

I was ridiculous? Me and Matty both made the same response initially. LOL at that.
What I noticed is that the larger posters here mostly agreed on thisā¦while everyone else here just for the purpose of causing shitstorms seemed extremely confused.
I donāt do lunges. My knees are blown out. I couldnāt do any leg work for a month after that trip to COā¦so people can laugh all they want.
Most of the ones laughing havenāt built enough muscle to justify the attitude.
I wasnāt familiar with the term as it is used in training articles. neither as Matty. My guess is, none of the big guys in my gym over the age of 30 know or care about it either.
It would help if most were here to make progressā¦instead of do this in every thread.

You were ridiculous in that you wouldnāt admit bashing the other method, and youāre still pretending thatās not what several people in this thread are referring to.
It appears there are large people on both sides of the debate, so my guess is that both methods have merit, but again, thatās not why you were being ridiculous, IMO.
And I agree there are a handful of even more ridiculous posters that get there jimmies by coming at you. Specifically the ones referring to this lunge video I keep hearing about, as if your inability to do lunges, by way of e-magic, disqualifies the amount of muscle youāve built.
