Worst Advice Ever?
-
Tuesday, August 19, 2008 6:23 PM
Whats the worst advice anyone has ever given you on bodybuilding - whether diet, specific exercises, routines, etc?
Did you follow the advice?
What were the results?
For how long did you follow it?

I've had advice from doing behind the neck pulls(still controversey over this) to drinking beer to add more calories to the daily intake.
Both of which, I never followed.

"Arch your back when you are doing curls, and lean towards the side that is curling, it helps you get under the weight."
I don't remember what I said in response, I think I blacked out.

I don't usually listen to other people's advice. I research stuff myself, and I try things out, and I then do what works for me. I guess I'm just stubborn.
I will ocassionally ask for a critique on my form on a certain exercise, but even then I'm a bit skeptical of whether or not the person knows what they are talking about.
Squats are better than steroids

"If it's too heavy to lift properly, just throw it up." To which I replied, "Nah buddy, you can go hurt yourself if you'd like." Never stepped foot in a gym again.
"In the wild, there is no health care. In the wild, health care is, 'Ow, I hurt my leg. I can't run. A lion eats me and I'm dead.' Well, I'm not dead. I'm the lion, you're dead."

Difference between droping the weight on your chest and bringing to your chest... anyway some crazy advice I heard a long time back was you want to be in the gym for 3-4 hours to really build some muscle. connelly

HaHa! A guy told me one time to smoke weed before working out because you'll be so stoned you won't feel all the damage you're doing to your muscles....LOL I tried it but didn't work too well I forgot to workout and ended up at the arcade at the mall playing Galaga for 3 hours...LOL

Women should only use weights for their legs, like the leg press....
