The Great Bodybuilding Debate

I like how dave handles the situation. He is very educated both through science and real world. Both guy's make valid points and for us to think Ian doesn't make any is just as ignorant and arrogant as he is. We don't have to believe every word he spews out to realize he does have something to offer. In fact Dave himself agrees with him quite a few times on his opinions. The f'd up part for Ian is he can't see Dave's side at all.

What I dislike is the fact that Ian makes fun (resorts to name calling) of experienced lifters.

Back in the day we had to be pragmatic. At least a lot of us did. We weren't being spoon fed info on how to handle every tiny bit of minutiae. There was a bit of art to the process. Now that side of things is being mocked, which I think is utterly idiotic.

Trying to make every issue black or white - well, good luck with that. Unless you're a freak, there has to be some art, trial and error.
