Lots of people recommend going heavy on shrugs and usign straps. Wendler recommends it


I'm not after hypertrophy dumbass!
 
0ni, if you had put on 8-10kg of muscle naturally this past year then I'd have to step back and think shit this guy's getting some damn good results, there must be something to his method of madness however, all we have here is no results, just madness.

He has massive traps showing that low rep work is good for hypertrophy
I am not after hypertrophy, im after trap STRENGTH. He shrugs TEN PLATES A SIDE

I dont have a problem with going heavy on shrugs as I said do a mix of heavy and high rep shrugs but not max effort lol, but if your grip isnt the best in the 1st place or your at a fairly beginner level like you are then why use straps for anything? you should be doing everything possible to increase grip strength...

ok strong logic

ive seen guys loading up the bar with lots of plates, and do maybe 1-3 reps on shrugs. Traps the same size as yours.

I don't own a trap bar!


I do dedicated grip work! That's what you're missing here!
Look at my videos, I hold my deadlift 1RM for a good 5 seconds after the lift!
Grip is not a problem for me! However double overhand grip and hook grip is a problem for me, but I don't use that in any of my lifts anyway! May as well use straps for them!
 
buy one

your 65kg.. your traps are okay, but they only look decent because everything else is tiny

I don't think I know everything
It's just stupid shit like "straps are for pussies" and "direct grip work is bad, just hold back your deadlift until your grip strength catches up" that I find laughable
 
You see in most cases after someone fails to present a solid argument, they resort to slander and petty name calling, typically with big words that they hope will make them sounds more intelligent than the other person in the discussion. You seem to be performing excellently in this phase of the argument.
 
why darkman? No one else on this forum shows their face? lol

Well, very few.

I would like to see pics and vids of half the blokes who throw their advice and weight around in this joint?

Actions speak WAY louder than words in my opinion.

0ni doesn't need to post up pictures of his face. Just like no one else on this forum has to either.

cmon darkman?
 
0ni's already shown his face a number of times, both in pics and videos
I'd just like to see it when he's posting photos of his physique
 
I'd like to see pics or vids of members and their faces actually training and showing us what they lift and where they're at with their goals too.....but you know....sometimes, they just never come darkman??

lol

The proof is always in the pudding.
 
yep, I have seen some people buddy. Incredibly inspiring too many of them. But there are others, who I have never seen a pic or vid of...not ever.

It's good to see people practicing what they preach and living by their comments and showing people what their results are? More of that is neccessary and less of the shit talk imo
