#207: A Rant on People Doing Anything Except Lifting Heavy Weights to Get In Shape

“Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder but don’t nobody wanna lift no heavy ass weights” - the great Ronnie Coleman.

This basically sums up this episode perfectly. And even if you don’t want to be a professional bodybuilder, I can almost guarantee that you want to build your body in some way. So all the same principles apply.

I’m genuinely sick and tired of people selling lies. All exercise is good, but that does not mean that all exercise produces the same results.

Human beings are hardwired to avoid struggle and difficulty, and people in the fitness industry prey on this. “Do this thing that much easier than that other hard thing, I promise it works!”. Sure… if that were true, why wouldn’t everyone just do that then???

I go into more detail in this episode of course, but I hope you stay with me here. All I’m trying to do is deliver the truth. And I may not always be nice, but I will always be good.
