Badass BOR's

I love it when weak people excuse the fact that they are weak by making fun of stronger people's form.

"Oh, sure I can only use the pink dumbbells for rows, but my back is PERFECTLY STRAIGHT!!!!"

Nobody cares. These people didn't get big and strong by accident.

And you are calling me weak compared to who's standards? Yours? Do you actually know anything about me or my training history?

guys guys, what is with the flaming each other lately? Why not just accept that YES they are bad form but so what? Try doing what they are doing with that weight I'm sure you would struggle, just agree to disagree...

No, I'm generalising. I don't care if you're weak, but slating people who are obviously strong because they have bad form is stupid, because if you only ever use perfect form you will never train hard enough to get strong. They are obviously advanced and experienced enough to make that decision for themselves, because if they weren't advanced and experienced they would not be using 150 kg+ for BORs.

Cute how you pick out my weakest lift to use as an example, from a couple of months ago. You won't find many posts when I claimed to be a strong bench presser. My other lifts are far from spectacular, and I will be the first to admit that, but they beat my bench. Calling me out on my lifts is missing the point somewhat, since the thread is not about them.


Curt, that's exactly my point. Form isn't spot on but it's silly to flame because of it.

Ok, this thread has definately run its course, as it is just breaking down into a squabble. Closed.
