Why do so many here seem to hate barbells and barbell exercises?
because they associate them with fat powerlifters with aspergers
>>75463473They hate us because they ain't us
>>75463473I'm a dyel
Terminal contrarianism plus a perception of fitness and optimal exercise selection generally informed by the decisions of steroid-using bodybuilders and influencers plus glassbackery which creates the perception that free weight exercises will make your spine explode.
>>75464040Shut up with your fancy words, nerd>>75463473Barbell movements are unnatural and everybody ends up injured. Machines respect more the natural movement of the body and lets you apply more force and isolate the exercise more>inb4 blablablaI dont care. Deal with it.
>>75463473They don't. What you see is some faggot spamming >does nothingwith a pic of OHP
>>75464457>Moving a free weight bar however your body naturally wants to is more natural than a machine in a set path and motionFucking lol, lmafo evenDyel detected
>>75464457Contrarianinsm is not a valid substitute for a personality + you outed that you're brown with your ESLdom.
>>75463473I don't hate them but they're overrated and not absolutely necessary. If you were here in the mid 2010s, everyone shilled SS, Stronglifts, and simplified barbell strength training and the end all be all to making gains.A lot of people found out over time that wasn't true.
>>75464457>Barbell movements are unnaturalno, they are retarded, all of them, it's quite natural for human to spot abnormally heavy stick and get the urge to lift the dumb fucking thing >>75464457>everybody ends up injuredalso not true, u are injured as soon as u try benchpress incline skullcrushers ohp bent overbarbell row etc. relatively hard>yeah at some point if u overdo it u will get bum shoulder from benching and aggravated biceps tendon form bent over barbell rows etc. not talking about that, not at some point, once u load proper weight for magical 8 to 12 reps (anther bullshit) near failure u are already injured>like from the act of loading weight? ? no but if u try lifting it u are already injuring urself >Machines respect more the natural movement of the bodyexcept 62,9% of machines emulate the dumb fucking abnormally heavy stick where your hands are shackeled together by retardo heavy stick and u push or pull in exact smae plane of motion, there is nothing magical about "machines" either>machine lets you apply more force and isolate the exercise morethat's exactly why it's bad - lotta weight in complex movement (complicated) that isolates nothing, good thing u pretended to be extra retarded here bot and didn't say machines isolate muscle, because isolating exercise and isolating muscle have maybe tangentially in special cases the same meaning, and u have to isolate muscle to grow, u have to distill movement and keep tension on particular head muscle belly entire duration of set >>75460668>>75461013pecs and side deltoid without retardo heav stick, without impingement even if "it isn't real", yesterday i did clavicular head, brachialis >>75451955 , and side deltoid and i can feel my scap glued to my back and upper pec is warm and delt and brachialis and nothing elseif u get random pains after ur workouts in seemingly unrelated to exercise places it's because u've done stupid shit that doesn't work
