I don't even lift.0 -
I'm amused because usually it's dudes who get into this ****, and then someone chimes in making fun of the testosterone-fueled battle. Or maybe "she" is really a bored fat guy who got tired trolling bb.com and needed a change of scenery.0

He. I'm going with he at this point.
Yeah, I know it's sexist to assume....0 -

She is just bored, and we have entertained her for a few minutes, time to move on.0 -
We're all here for the same reason.

http://articles.elitefts.com/training-articles/dips-done-right/Really? Excuse you and your ignorance. 90 degrees increases torque and increases the chance for injury.
I'm sure you use that same excuse for your squats.0 -
I called it! ...on a friend's wall that we were being expertly trolled.
Well-played. Well. Played.
(Although admittedly, using the direct insults every single time for the last 4-5 posts was a little over the top. I probably would have went with a backhanded compliment followed by some kind of thinly-veiled blanket insult, but we all have our own style. You went with what works best for you, though, and I can't criticize anyone for going with what they know.)0 -
lol, thanks for the laughs. this thread is funny.0

But my actual true main point was that you're all idiots. You don't know her experience or abilities. So to say she needs to be doing what you are pushing off onto her, you are clueless, and it is clear why you are not a personal trainer. You aren't taking her physical ability into consideration. For example... is she doing upper body exercise because she has a lower body injury? And you all are pushing that on her? Is she doing arm work because she has a disc tear? And you want her to do deadlifts, squats, and overhead press?
Not just that you guys all ambushed her and told her what to do, you disregarded what SHE wants to do. You're all idiots.
So why come here at all then? You didn't even read all the responses before you replied. Not all of us were"pushing" her to do anything. I personally said "you *might* benefit". She's new poster with no pictures, and empty profile, and she didn't leave much information. Yes, we assumed she was a beginner. However you assumed we were all clueless idiots, which is worse?
I did, they were all negating what she specifically asked for.
Obviously not. There are 3 or 4 posts listing specific weights that she asked for.0 -
Dips. Learn them.
Oh wait, you can't, because you're stuck in the mindset of a narrowminded loser.
In a few years, you are going to look back at your life, remember this thread and feel incredibly embarrassed.0 -
Methinks Sleepyhouse22 is a big girl now and is able to squat with 5 lb plates on her (women's 35 lb) barbell. She looks super-duper cute doing it in her cute workout outfit with color-coordinated sneakers.
Haha. And when she broke a sweat with that, she goes on the interwebs and smack talks other women to try to address her obvious insecurity.0 -

Sorry, I'm not that annoying ***** who takes pictures of herself at the gym to try and feel accomplish. I write down my gains on pen and paper, not on my Facebook.
You need to go back to FB and get off MFP.0 -

When one protests too much, there's usually a reason.... also looks like someone needs a hug!
Learn how to respond like an adult, as opposed to a pre-pubescent adolescent who has no vocabulary other than the word *kitten*!0 -
How heavy do you go for Biceps, triceps, shoulders and back?
As much as you can, maintaining good form for as long as you can . . . usually 10-12 reps.0 -

Who takes pictures of themself with their finger stuck under their nose?
You've proven repeatedly that you're a troll. Thank you for further verification.0 -

At least you draw the line somewhere at what you're not willing to do to be annoying. No, really, it's good to set boundaries on what is acceptable and what is off-limits.
However, you might want to reconsider where you currently set this line, especially if your focus is truly on strength/hypertrophy training. Some progress shots might be helpful to better support your obvious expert status on the topic. It will lend you some credibility, and honestly, admittedly based only on your participation in this thread, you seem to be just a wee bit deficient in that area right now.0 -
You say that like it's a bad thing.
Bad-no. Pathetic-yes.0 -
You guys, no seriously, I'm crying. I just... I just wanted everybody to like me!
I made you this smoothie.

At least I've actually done Starting Strength and Wendler's 5/3/1 for a substantial amount of time unlike most all of you.
But you're right, my 16th post WAS a waste. I'm going to get back to real lifting forums where people actually have a single clue about lifting and assitance work.
Oh, I didn't realize you had insight into our lifting routine. Congratulations to you for doing programs that myself and most of the other girls are doing (and have done) as well. I didn't know you were the first to discover those. I've done stronglifts, RPT, and Wendler's, I must be a fracking expert! We'll go ahead and chalk it up to you being a typical 24 year old that considers herself smarter than everyone else.
If you did any of those then you'd know the importance of assistance work.
You are all touting the importance of doing and ONLY doing the main lifts.
I'd love to see your *kitten* struggle on unassisted dips because you've never attempted them. OH! But you get enough tricep work on your main lifts? LOL! I'd love to see your tricep gains on bench and overhead press. Really, I would.
How about weighted dips? I'm up to a 45 pound plate to depth now.
Way to not accomplish an actual dip.
Really? Excuse you and your ignorance. 90 degrees increases torque and increases the chance for injury.

um excuse me.... i am a certified personal trainer and i said nothing against anyone!!! Thank you very much. I simply told the OP to go at her own pace!!!Oh God, a bunch of n00bs who think they know everything about lifting. This is why you don't go to a fitness forum with 90% women.0 -
