It's a gym, people go for different reasons and have different goals in mind. Strength is as legitimate as any other reason for working out. He might not look huge, but he does look like he is in shape and works out.

Why may be argumentative and self-righteous, but if anyone is currently looking like a troll right now, it's you, beasty.Originally Posted by Brian SD
Nope. Do you know what a troll is? My posts are not calculated to get a rise from anybody. My posts actually point out the stupidity of others like why. So how can that be trolling? Why is not self righteous and argumentative. The right words are delusional, oblivious and no grasp of reality.

But if he's pulling for a PR you have to expect a little wonky form. I only saw it once and there may have been a hitch, but honestly I don't much care.Originally Posted by lefty
I know, but it is not because of joint angles like he claimed. I've pulled similarly before and cursed myself after
My bad, thanks for the explanation.
Pfft, it knows.
I said bloodstream, though, not the stomach. I can work out either way. It doesn't matter much.Originally Posted by why
No, you said digestion in a sentence following a meal timing quote. And yes, you can work out either way.

+1 We get it, your goals are different than his, mine, Eason's, lefty's, etc. There's no point in having this argument last 9 pages. I've had it before as others have, it won't get very far and just upset people - it looks like yourself the most.

I know that!
My point is this forum is for people into style and vanity etc.
This forum is not for people who want to be strong and can deadlift their momma.
So what is why doing here if he is not into looking good as a result of his workout?
The answer: He is trolling here. Enough said!
BTW he doesnt look in shape nor work out.

Have you seen people who don't work out and are not in shape? Because they don't look like that. Not everyone who works out and is in shape looks like a bodybuilder.

People who work out/in shape may not have a 6 pack or bulging biceps but they look presentable and respectable and what a common man in the street would view as ‘keeping in shape’ either via sports or running.
Why look like some old guy in his mid to late 40s just beginning to do some sport. His arms are too small for someone who allege he can lift so much. BTW you don’t have small arms from deadlifting hundreds of lbs but it need not be gargantuan.
So what is Why? You got it! A troll who doesn’t know what he is talking about and doesn’t do what he claim.

I use straps too and my arms aint puny like why.
Straps cant help you if you aint got the muscles to lift.
If you tried lifting heavy, you know, cos your grip will loosen and weaken and the strain lifting from your fingers is tremendous.
BTW using straps would not make your arms atrophy and his body parts don't look like someone who deadlift a lot. Lets see his back. His back thickness should be there if he does lift.

That's a thicker bar. I didn't feel like changing the weights so I used straps because I can't hook grip thick bars. I don't know why you're trying to judge the size of my arms from that picture as if upper arm size has something to do with grip strength. You're just looking for stupid **** to make yourself feel better.

It is because of joint angles. PRs require a lot of effort and the body almost naturally gravitates toward the strongest joint angle during them. You don't know what you're talking about, so please just stop. I don't get why people can't just say 'good job'. Your almost constant attempt to drag me down speaks volumes for yourself.

Digestion != stomach.
