Here, OP, I made an infographic to help you understand the situation.

The blue bar represents people who don't know enough, and KNOW they don't know enough about a given subject, so they either don't just dive into it at all, or wait until they DO know what they're doing. They're no problem.

The green bar represents people who have done their homework, understand things, and are confident in their knowledge and learning, and do things correctly and competently. They're no problem either.

The RED bar in the middle, is YOU. It represents people who THINK they know what they're doing, but in fact they DON'T, they just THINK they know everything already. They act like the people represented by the green bar, but in fact are a danger to themselves, and perhaps to others, because they clearly DON'T know what they're doing.

READ THE BOOK.
READ THE FUCKING STICKY WHILE YOU'RE AT IT.
The life you save may be your own.

Good post and ill back u up on everything you say
But dude, /threading ur own post is just gay

How DARE you say ANYTHING against a double-dubs post of truth?

Because autists always overthink everything and spent more time researching about the 'best routine' than actually putting effort in the gym.
Meanwhile Chad does a brosplit and gets mad gains.
His form for bench press? Lift the fucking bar down and up your chest.
Autists think about leg drive, kinetic chains and other things youtubers come up with to create content and get shekels.

>Starting
>Not a book for people who are just starting lifting and have no idea what they are doing
So you admit your a retard with that post?

>>39932695
you must be some special kind of retard to prefer to read a 400 page book instead of asking someone at the gym to spend 5 minutes with you showing proper form and watch a couple of 5 minute youtube vids doing the same.

This thread is bait and everybody is taking it

>>39931981
because if you lift heavy and/or frequently without understanding the science behind it you will eventually hurt yourself (more severely and often)

The book is for the teachers not the person learning the routine
