Not by me. I think it’s just the new forum method of abbreviating when a Block of text is quoted.

I recently bought some leggings to keep my thighs and knees warm during these chilly winter workouts. Of course I wear shorts over them, and a long tailed shirt as a courtesy to other gym goers.
This morning after putting them on I caught myself in a full length mirror and realized I was a mask away from being a luchador.

Hey… Don’t limit yourself. You’ve got over 20 years of training yet to go. You’ll get there!

Probably how it’s going to take me to pull that.
Back to confessions… I have a B.A. in Exercise Science, I’m CSCS & TSAC-F through the NSCA but mostly use all that knowledge on myself. I still come here daily with a thirst for knowledge. Every week there’s a new article talking about the best program for hypertrophy, strength, etc. Each author has had success with their program but they’re all different.
Fact: there’s more than one way to get things done. My reality: most days I feel like I have no idea what the hell I’m doing.

I’m pretty sure I hate benching.

Yes!! And squatting! But when I think about it, I hate the lifts that I suck at and often question if they’re actually important.
Isn’t 4 plates per side for reps strong on single-leg leg press??
(For what it’s worth I’m doing 5/3/1 with squats no matter how depressing it is.)

Ehhhh, I actually really like front squatting. Back squatting I could take it or leave it.

Then you are more of a masochist than I could ever to aspire to be.
I’ve always thought comic book characters be kinda dumb at times. If I had spiderman’s powers, I would at least come up with some bullshit reason about how I tried weightlifting and boom, I’m a natural at it and the next thing I know, I’m at the olympics and winning medals and getting paid and shit.

I’ve thought stuff like this before haha. I imagine Spiderman would find rock climbing very easy as a competitive sport.
I’m pretty sure he and most other superheroes gon find most sports pretty easy.
Dude has a upper strength limit of 10 tons or something like that. Imagine his deadlift, damn…
