Speaking of weirdness - I saw a guy doing supinated bench presses a few days ago at my gym. Has anybody ever seen such a thing?

I also started to do one-arm cable rows but seated.

But only doing what you can do already is a great way to never learn anything.

You're right.

Oh well, back to learning some barbell bosu ball squats.

I have 20 kg plates and 25 kg plates in my gym. I think the 25 kg plates are the bigger (have the longest diameter) so I actually use them for deadlifts.

Good luck getting ANYTHING out of that, Raptor.

Wait... so this is why I was stalling?!

Love the sarcasm.

Damn, you're improving as the day passes in sarcasm, Lance!

The reality is that "strength people" have such narrow views of training... people never have an open mind and actually THINK about stuff. It's sad that we don't have more open minded SMART people that think.

We usually have either the close minded "it's 3x5 exactly as Rippetoe said or it's wrong" or "we need to squat with chains and have two ketlebells attached using bands on a bosu ball with a weight vest and a powerjumper in order to have any "functional" training effect".

So they either are very close minded, or they are very... "flamboyant" in their approach. We need more people in the middle ground when it comes to training.

So girljordan put more effort than training like a champion?

What's a "toad"?

A toad is any of a number of species of amphibians in the order Anura (frogs) characterized by dry, leathery skin, short legs, and snout-like parotoid glands.
