You know what, I've had ENOUGH!
Of what? of the various debates that seem to typify information about strength training on the internet.
The thing that first attracted me to working out was the LACK of ambiguity, the CLARITY of the thing. You were strong or you were not. It didn't matter about what people thought, strength was a real thing.
And as soon as I start looking up routines and stuff on the internet I'm forced to care about HIT and superslow and all that crap and the agonizing over reps and sets that OTHER PEOPLE care about.
You know what, sod it. I'm going back to doing old-fashioned exercises that I know work. Turkish getups. Pushups. And I don't give a damn about sets and reps, I'll do whatever I bloody well WANT as long as it's progressive.
And yes, I'm drunk, but god damn it I'm right.
