You won't lose the bar. At these weights your thumb won't stop it anyway.

Thumbless grip puts the weight straight down your forearms as opposed to outside your forearms with thumbs wrapped.

To my understanding, it's all a money grab. Premium insurance companies will cost more, because they will pay the doctor more. They can comensate paying the doctor more, because they charge more. Other insurances cost less, and will rebuttal with a doctors office about price gauging, so they are only paying the adequate costs of a procedure. Hence why doctors won't accept all coverages, because they want max profit. The medical industry is literall a scam, and price gauging for insurance payouts should be highly illegal. It's unethical, but somehow legal. (Ded fkn Srs)

Your doctor is wrong. And is most likely very ignorant about hormone replacement. Just because someone went to medical school doesn't mean they know everything about hormone replacement. Unless they specialize in it they must likely don't even know as much as the average layman who researches the topic.

The 25% that do maybe 1% will hit 300 naturally if that.

The amount of men that can hit 400 natty is small.

People that try to bypass their God given levels are cheating.
Do you take any kind of prescribed medications or supplements? One could argue that's cheating too. If you are a diabetic and take insulin you're cheating. If you have high blood pressure and take meds for it, you're cheating. If you wear contacts, eye glasses or had vision corrective surgery you're cheating... See how that argument can go? In 2022 with modern medicine and technology its stupid to limit yourself physically just because you think hormone replacement is cheating. You could literally have the energy, drive and stamina of when you were 20 years old but you choose not to. Because feeling youthful and vigorous is cheating in your mind.


It really doesn't make any sense to me. I'm about to be 35 and I'm in the best shape of my life. Far stronger and more athletic then when I was 20 years old.

Well, you dont even play a sport currently and the sport you did play you were not proficient in. If anything the bodybuilders and powerlifters are athletes more than you are.

You should keep the camera rolling next time to show how an elite athlete struggles to get off that bench lol

What percentage of dudes 50+ do you think lift? You see 5 lifting when you're there, you're not seeing the 5k sitting on their ass eating cheetos and watching sports.

I agree, Leo can certainly be a little bit douche. But I still respect an older bro who lifts.

Yeah, this is the problem for sure. People still would have given him chit even without that because that's what Misc does, but I think more people would have given him props without the hate in the OP. Sillie is correct though about what he's said. It will be interesting to see if any of these guys are still lifting in their late 40's and into 50's+. The majority probably won't be.

It's also easy for a 20 or 30something to say stuff about injuries not putting a major kink into your lifting progress but injuries and surgery in older age can cause quite the setbacks.

I'm not running down bodybuilders. I love all of you. What I'm doing tho is giving a lot of folks here a dose of reality.

You see regular guys get in the gym. Alot get on juice and then they think oh I could beat up Floyd Mayweather. I could play safety in the NFL. I'm either just as strong or big as those guys.

When the reality is they can't and never will get close to that and it's OK.

Yep guys here live in an echo chamber. They don't realize how small a percentage of the worldwide population goes to the gym.

Of the ones that do very few lift seriously. Walk into a planet fitness, LA Fitness or YMCA and look around.

Just because you may go to a hardcore gym and see others like you doesn't mean it's a tiny sample size.
