    I wonder how many people we have on here that lift weights. I know that everyone that lifts weight have came to a weight that they couldn't lift A 3lb weight could seem easy to lift than a 5lb weight. A 5lb weight seemed easy to lift than a 10lb weight. There's a reason why true weight lifters couldn't just jump into lifting 25lb weights.

    I lift weights and I am not going to lie to anyone and say that I had to work my way up the weights ladder. A true person will not lie.

    I wonder if we have any personal trainers on here that can explain why people that lift weights have to work their way up the ladder.

    I posted this once already, then you made me go back through all of these posts, so that I could re-post it for you, AZ person.......Please see where YOU asked Jvkh127 and let me know if that question is properly written. Take your time. We'll be here all night.

    You explain to me what is wrong with what I have said. You are the teacher. I'm not.

    Wow, that's not even what you were originally discussing. Of course you have to work your way up with weights. However, once you can lift something that's 10lbs, regardless of what it is, you can lift 10lbs. Are you doing reps with that ream of paper? I'm sure if you did, it would feel the same as lifting a 10lb dumbbell.

    Paper. It's made of paper.

    Of course now there's a huge dent in it from my repeated head bashing.

    I have a feeling this debate will continue on for at least another 15 pages.


    Does anyone know how many calories I can burn by repeatedly bashing my head against a brick wall?

    how heavy of a wall are we talking?

    Is the wall made of feathers or rice?

    Hm...I'm not sure if the dent will affect the DENSITY of the wall...Gah!

    Holy Moly!

    Well usually because you start with the weight you can lift, and then move up as you gain more strength. Three pounds is lighter than five, five is lighter than 10, etc. And the sky is blue. What the heck does this have to do with your very wrong assertion that 10 pounds of fat is heavier than 10 pounds of mucsle? 10 pounds is STILL 10 pounds.

    I actually lift weights, but here goes...... YOU said "Jvkh127, why, you have such a small brain."

    1) That is a QUESTION, not a STATEMENT, therefore, it needs to end with a question mark.
    2) You missed a word.
    C) It SHOULD read "Jvkh127, why, DO you have such a small brain?"


    make sense now?
