Now who am I???
Well three gold medals for world powerlifting championships and two bronze for the pan am games for oly lifting.. three different heavy weight titles in MMA and also a member of team USA for MMA..
pretty much means I know a thing or two about fitness.
You do realize that the other guy actually ASKED for him to state his credentials on why he is an expert on lifting, right? It bit him in the *kitten* when it actually turned out that OP has some pretty solid credentials. And don't belittle his accomplishments just because you don't agree with his opinion.
Oh. Well that puts things in a different light. Let me reconsider.
Nope. Still don't care. Accomplishments are not carte blanche to be an *kitten*

OP wasn't really being an *kitten* till he called wheird fat. He came off arrogant before but wouldn't call him an *kitten*. You and I both know plenty of people on MFP who are arrogant yet make decent posts.
btw, it seems rather odd that you posted so many "I don't care" gifs. Almost seems like you care enough to search and post them.0 -

One guy asks who the other is to be giving advice. The other says who he is and what he has done. I guess I missed the part where answering a question makes him an *kitten*.0 -

I just wanted to support the OP and say only a fraction of the people on here lifts heavy.
To start with you should lift light. And possibly even lighter than that.
I just started myself. I have been lifting light and less than light for two years now
Of course I look into programs like SL5x5 and HST and use / abuse them for my own purposes, but to recommend that everyone should be doing heavy lifting as part of a general plan for better health just doesn't make sense. I have had quite a few injuries on and off in my 2 years going to the gym and usually because of lifting too heavy. But like I said I don't even lift heavy, but sometimes light is still too heavy 0 -

Man I haven't been in states since october but BK made burgers that get your penis sore? I'm not sure how I feel about that. At one hand... sore penis.
On the other hand... SORE PENIS!0 -

Nope, I already had him clarify his point. That beginners shouldnt jump right into lifting heavy and others shouldn't advise them to do so. Which I agree with. And I also stated that the heavy lifting programs normally cited have the beginners start out light and progress relatively slowly with weight.
I just like the irony of it.0 -

Oh you mean like making up stories about fantasy women... and talking about it all the time.. and just saying the most idiotic things to get the attention of women"hi" like that?
Well, I personally have always believed that stories about women have always been more fascinating than being a hacker, and then claiming to be a biochemist and ... are you a researcher and a trainer nowadays?
also, hi Pu_2390 -
Wow, so much cool story in this thread. So if someone isn't a power lifter they don't lift heavy? Thanks for that info.0

Can we tell new people to lift an appropriate amount of weight for them?
And that they should work this out by doing an appropriate beginners workout?
Like, oh. I don't know? Stronglifts?0 -

Its not a good joke if you have to explain it.. and you've done it more than once. I'd stick to sailing with the sore penis rather than joking if I were you0 -

Well yeah.. the whole strong lift reference was just saying that actual strong lift regiment is not heavy lifting and people shouldn't call it that0

I think, and correct me if I am wrong, that you are ok with something like SL as there is progression built in, and it starts light. However, you are not ok with the pressure to do SL (or the like) if someone does not have the inclination or the resources to do so. You believe (as do I) that you can get results in other ways if something like SL (whether you call it heavy or not) is not something that the person wants or maybe is able to do? Also, you are not ok with the pressure to push too hard too soon and to 'run before you can walk' (or lift too heavy for your ligaments, adaptations etc etc).
Is this correct? Just trying to clarify your position.
Oh, and :flowerforyou:0 -
I have three lilac bushes in my yard..its awesome. But they bloom and go away so fast
