Is functional strength useless?

I use it for most functions.

>work in the trades
>lift things without killing my back/knees
that's about it for me.

To easily lift your gf to the bed

>lift gf
>moving shit around the house
>prevents trades from killing your joints
>fighting, moreso grappling but if you're a strong cunt who can throw a punch you're dangerous

lol you fell for the meme broheem

>>41985629
everything that has functional in its name is a meme

>helping my friend move
>"anon help me with this couch?"
>lift it by myself, not even a heavy couch
>she bites her lips thinking I wasnt noticing
I'm too autismo to do anything about it tho

If it's useless, then, by definition, it's not "functional".

Carrying groceries from the car to the house easily thanks to hundred hours of biceps curls

Acro yoga
2 stairs at a time
Milk jugs
Vacuuming with ease
Deadlifting 5pl8 for reps for mires
Strong fingers for fast typing and sick bends on my guitar

any kind of strength training makes you better than the average guy.

All strength is functional

Ohping girls is a cool party trick.

>>41985629
there are bound to be loads of examples, but here's the simplest.

Moving yourself around. Just living your everyday lfie.
there is no question someone who trains flexibility and balance as much as strength is going to have an easier day-to-day and age WAY better than a 250 pound muscle mountain of fat-ass permabulk powerlifter.

*or fatass permabuk.

>do anything other than shitty manual labour
>don't kill my back/knees anyway
Fucking brainlets I swear

>>41985629
uh, almost everything? are you a bedbound cripple?

>>41987683
Can confirm all 3

>>41991070
Basic calisthenics is better for that it also gives functional strength.

Fat kids with big thighs cores piss poor all around endurance and nothing else are jokes.

>250 pound muscle mountain of fat-ass permabulk powerlifter.
seems small for a powerlifter desu

>>41991070
t. never had to do any hard physical labout

>>41991979
if you think hard physical labour is about strength rather than stamina, you've never had one.

Worked farming and construction, and there is no rest time for 4-5hrs straight, 8-10hrs a day are only interrupted by lunch, massive bodybuilders wouldn't last pissing time in those jobs. There is literally no job that needs humans capable of lifting a small house, we have machines for that.

burglar breaks into your house, kicks your ass and rapes your dog (because we all know you dont have a gf XD)

fucking wimps

Found this thread and don't want to make a separate one so I'll ask here

I know hypertrophy is good for a butt because higher reps and low weight equals bigger butt. But what purpose would a strong butt formed by low reps and higher weight have? Would it help with sex pounding a girl or not?

I can drive a golf ball about 60 yards further
