Why do you train for strength when it causes you to lose mobility?

Basically your body adapts very specifically to your training. Picking a heavy barbell up off the floor makes you good at...picking a heavy barbell up off the floor.

You can always do flexibility training on the side. Yes I know most faggots don't but still, nothing wrong with strength training

There's a lot wrong with strength training. Namely that it's detrimental to your mobility. Your body has to adapt to the heavy loads in such a way that reduces mobility. What do you need to train so strength specific for? What's the point? You'll still get knocked the fuck out all the same in a fight.

Maybe if you'd do some deadlifts you could pull your mom's black boyfriend off her once in a while

>>42704410
You think you need to train deadlifts to pull a couple hundred lbs?

You're an idiot. Basically what you're saying is remember to stretch. Sage

"no"

I'm saying training for strength is retarded and harmful unless you have a specific reason to. The body builds strength without training specifically for it, without making detrimental strength specific training adaptations. When you load your body up with hundreds and hundreds of pounds your structure becomes more rigid and less flexible to avoid snapping under the weight. Why make yourself this way unless you have to? You can build muscle, strength and mobility just fine without training specifically for strength.

>You'll still get knocked the fuck out all the same in a fight.
Why is this even an argument against lifting and only lifting? It can also be applied to everything else like
>Running? You'll still get knocked the fuck out all the same in a fight.
>Drawing? You'll still get knocked the fuck out all the same in a fight.
>Reading? You'll still get knocked the fuck out all the same in a fight.
Yet you fags only use that one when it comes to lifting. My bet is you are skinnyfat and trying to rationalize why you don't lift. Protip: A lot of lifters could not only outlift but also outstretch you, faggot

I'd ask what purpose you're training for like I said. Running is very useful in life. Drawing and reading aren't fitness. Fighting is a useful skill. Lifting 500+ lbs is a "skill" you're all but guaranteed to never use outside a sterile little weightroom.

How does it feel to be literally wrong about everything, all the time?

Neither is fighting. What are you even training and what for, if you train at all that is?

Fighting is a "skill" you'll only have to use if you're an arrogant shit and/or the city has blacks, not to mention the only skill involved in street fighting is throwing the sucker punch first and then kicking your enemy's head in

nigga who cares i just want to get stronger

Are you saying training isn't fitness or a useful skill? You're retarded either way.

You find me a single man on planet earth who hasn't encountered a fighting situation in life and you've found some gimp who lived in a bubble his whole life.

That's cool but not the point of this thread.

Wait how come i can squat 450 and do the splits? Could i be more mobile if i didn't squat?

>>42705345
your hip anatomy. people who can develop high levels of strength and mobility are rarer than either of each. like a 50" vertical.
