But then again, those who argue against squatting and deadlifting on the same day may just be pussies.
Mark RippetoeExercise is not a thing we do to fix a problem - it is a thing we must do anyway, a thing without which there will always be problems
Mark RippetoeI welcome you to the community of people who have decided that EASY will no longer suffice!
Mark RippetoeIf every day of your life you are told by authority figures that the Earth is flat, you will be scared of falling off the edge whether you want to be or not.
Mark RippetoeYou do not need to do many different exercises to get strong - you need to get strong on a very few important exercises, movements that train the whole body as a system, not as a collection of separate body parts. The problem with the programs advocated by all the national exercise organizations is that they fail to recognize this basic principle: the body best adapts as a whole organism to stress applied to the whole organism. The more stress that can be applied to as much of the body at one time as possible, the more effective and productive the adaptation will be.
