"I Don't Like That!" He Said. Hail to the Dinosaurs! A guy sent asked me for a program that would help him gain strength and muscle mass. So I gave him one. He didn't like it. "I don't like squats," he said. "They're bad for your knees." "Then do deadlifts," I told him. "Or Trap Bar deadlifts." "I don't like deadlifts," he said. "They're bad for your back. And they overstress your CNS." "So do cleans, snatches and pulls," I said. "I don't like them," he said. "They're ballistic movements, and that's bad for you." "Try the farmer's walk," I suggested. "That's too old-fashioned." "Try heavy partials," I said. "They hurt too much. And they're too old-fashioned." "What about sandbags?" I asked. "I don't know what you're talking about," he said. "Do you like the pec dec?" I asked,. "Of course," he said. "Lift the thing over your head a couple of times, then drag it outside the gym and carry it around the block," I suggested. "And then take a big sledge hammer and smash it into a million pieces." There was a long pause. "Is that for real?" he asked. "Absolutely," I said. Did he do it? I don't know. But if you see some guy lugging a chrome plated pec dec around the block, you'll know he took my advice -- and you'll know there's hope for the human race -- and for the current generation of bunny blasters.

I have buddies asking me stuff all the time, and this is the type of respone I get. It's gotten to the point where I just say fine, enjoy being skinny fat and weak, not my problem.
