I should in a perfect egoless world just let the bodybuilders do their thing without judgment but I'm stricken in my insecure emotionfull mind with a preponderously sized ego to feed so this is where the hate comes from. Most of the time I do not care what other people do when they lift, but sometimes I get the urge to tell them how utterly wrong they are inspite of the fact that I myself could be wrong.
A good example of this came up when you said the likely nonsense that you had to eat immediately after lifting to gain strength. I get angry when I see such crap touted as the truth. What other nonsense do you guys espouse? I hate knowing that so much misinformation is going to be spread around. I dislike our current medical system and most doctors and baseball managers and financial analysts and talk radio hosts and so many more the same way.
Bodybuilding culture implies steroid use, which I would assume there is a high probablity of you having taken it(sorry if this is a wrong conclusion). People willing to risk long-term health for short-term gains. There is so much wrong with bodybuilders - the total time they work out, the minimal strength associated with their muscles, the limited range of motion because of the muscle size, the limited functionality of such muscles, the scar tissue you build up over the years, the endless use of machines that allow you to help you say "I lift very heavy". Its just all a scam like the AHA's diet for diabetics. There are very simple solutions to both gaining strength and ending diabetes yet thanks to some powerful idiots we have a convoluted shit storm that keeps people from finding a simple truth.
Your assumption about me using steroids is entirely wrong. Im 25 years old and have been into bodybuilding for approximetely 4 years. The first 3 years of it have been spent cutting off about 130lbs of fat. While trying to maintain as much lean mass as possible. Yes bodybuilding does have a negative conotation associated with steroid usage, non functional strength and very short life spans due to the drug abuse, and terribly unhealthy diets., but I do not fall into this catagory of bodybuilders.
I didnt say that eating immedietely after lifting is required to gain strength but it is working for me. I feel that My pre workout nutrition (which is my first meal of the day) of 2 eggs 30-45 minutes prior to my workout is essential before lifting, due to me being in a fasted state for approximetely 13 hours prior to lifting. I also feel that my post workout nutrition is also essential to my success due to the fact that all the aminos in my blood have probably been utilized during my workout.
Now your saying that I use all machines? Where are you getting this assumption from? Im quite proud of my 2.5x bodyweight deadlift as well as my 500lb squat. My bench is lacking, but I do have terrible leverages for it, but it is something that Im working on. I actually do use very few machines when Im lifting. My physical culture is VERY, VERY different from most when it comes to bodybuilding, diet and views on the whole scene in general. I laught at all the add in muscle magazines, and the supplements that the pro's claim to take, that which give them their massive physiques. I too am angry about all the misinformation floating around, it so vast that nobody can possibly know what is right and what is wrong, especially when it comes to nutrition. In my opinion nutrition is PURELY individual, and should be prescribed individually. People may use other people dietary models as guidelines, but must make adjusts to it so that it suits their needs.
