No lie. Lard bottom with the greatest advice of all time.
Ok... I was doing my "other" workout. The one I do when I need a break from the usual routine. Chest and Biceps tonight. Nothing funky on chest :
Cable Crossovers
Incline Barbell (slightly higher reps than normal around the 12 range)
Hammer Strenght flat bench press (again, reps around 12)
and the finisher...
dumbell pullovers supersetted with flat bench barbell presses to the throat. I do 10 reps pullovers and then 10 reps bench presses where I let the bar go down until it touches my throat. This is a killer for upper chest.
So I am sitting there after the first set, wearing - out of all things - the Demon Wear (All Natural, Swear to God) tshirt that Wynn off here sent me. A not so subtle 'I use roids' shirt.
Pear Boy (body shape) comes over and says "hey man, you doing that wrong. You need to let the bar come down to here" (touching a spot below his pec line on his sternum).. "you taking it too far up". Then he goes "and that exercise you doing before, that's for back. You working back too?"
So I tell him no I am not working back, that I just do bench presses like this to shake things up. Thankfully, he wanders off.
I do my last two sets and then ready for my bicep workout. Unfortunately (for me) tonight it is the "other" bicep workout as well. I think he had a melt down over this one.
I start off with very narrow underhand pulldowns. I keep my pinkies about six inches apart and only move the bar from my forehead to my upper chest just by curling my arms. Awesome movement. Again, he trots over. "whatcha doing? I thought you said you were not training back". I tell him No, I am training biceps and he just goes "uh-huh, that exercise works the back" and rolls his eyes. But he leaves. Whew.
Then I go over to the smith machine and do body drag curls. If you have ever done these you will know they work from the contraction around the lower bicep area. Again, he comes over "and THAT.... works the traps". If you ever see body drag curls, you will know why he may have confused this with shrugs.
Man, I can't take no more. I say "dude look. you ever heard of the Weider Confusion Training principle? You know where you keep your muscles guessing how you are going to train them? Like, keep them confused so they can't adapt to your workouts"? He is like yeah.. I know all the Weider Principles. I tell him "well that is how I train. It works. And next I am going to work my biceps with seated calf raises." He goes "what? that makes no sense". I am like "yeah. I know. Weider Muscle Confusion Principle. You see, if I do seated calf raises, the biceps won't be expecting me to hit them from that angle. So it sort of, like catches them by surprise. They start thinking ok, work out is over but then BAMM! I nailed them with seated calf raises. Total surprise. They never see it coming. See? it works. You look like you don't an idea what I am talking about. Muscle confusion there. "
Dude looks at me blankly and then says "YOU.. need a personal trainer dude."
