In reality, functional refers to being able to perform a specific task. This has been my issue ITT from the beginning. Instead of trying to understand that, you decided to lash out at me for no apparent reason
Functional training = Sprinting, bodyweight training, walking with 45lb backpack in forest, light weight training and so on

Non-functional training: Lifting 500lbs in the gym for two seconds and breaking your spine eventually, or dying of heart attack at the age of 40

You refer to stockpots by how much water they hold .

Filled with bones its probably around half filled with water so maybe 125ish lbs water, 50 or so lbs bones and a 15lb ish pot.

So only around 200 but anything that heavy and boiling hot so it cant be held against your body etc gets awkward.

Fixed your wording for you, brah. Now everything you've been espousing makes sense without coming off douchey and condescending.
The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.

How does the word functional apply to what you're doing? Function is about specificity. That's not what you're referring to

If you would just admit the you're applying the word incorrectly, we could move on from this. If you'll simply note that I have never once criticized your methods or training preferences.

Are you saying the big 3 dont create functional strength?

Most people at the gym are fools, YouTube is a great place to find legit strong ripped dudes.

functional and functional... i dont care about the word. Functional training is superior to weight training.. what training did mankind do since birth? Functional training. What did mankind do the last 40-150 years? Lift weights in gym and breaking their spines

They dont create functional strength, but they can be a good part of a functional workout if you use low weight and high rep

THIS!!! this is what im talking about

you could take any pro fatman, (strongman), that can lift a car over their head, yet get tired and worn out within a few minutes if they were to do a real manly physical job

this is due to weight lifting illusions, it does not give real strength

Seriously, fat guys have found another way to ruin the gym.

It's a goddam YMCA, and these fat out of shape douchebags with their Adipower lifting shoes, knee sleeves, wrist wraps. lifting belt take up the power rack for 2 hours straight doing their ****ty 'powerlifting' low bar squats (which aren't even real ****ing squats btw, olympic lifting squats or gtfo). 10 minute rest times, still look like a heap of **** day after day.

Stop coping with ur ugly body with 'strength'. Powerlifting is the most useless unaesthetic piece of **** sport ever and it attracts only neckbeards.

Srs. **** off .

Its the "Cool" thing now adays in the gym. I took time off of the gym for awhile and came back and bodybuilding is going extinct. I'm seeing 140 lb 20 year olds in SBD gear now just doing powerlifts and walking around like 250 lb meatheads.

Bet you yell at the top of your lungs doing your pathetic 3 inch deep low bar 'powerlifting' squats.

Bet you can't do a 225 olympic weightlifting squat.

Every powerlifter I've challenged to do a proper oly squat can't even do 1/3'rd of their rippetoe neckbeard squat max
