Funny, considering Spar's thoughtfulness is apparently lacking on the actual thought part. I like the unwarranted hostility and ridiculous accusations, when you have absolutely nothing to base them on. Bad posts? Not doing the program? And you base this on...what exactly? (Note this isn't directed at you, Rip. I've taken even your sarcastic responses somewhat seriously)
Now I'll admit that I've fucked up in areas while trying to get the most out of this program, and you haven't told me anything on that front that I'm not already aware of. I know this is a long time to be on a program, but to sit here and give me shit about things you literally have NO information on is absurd.
First of all, I'm a fucking college student with enough expenses to worry about without spending money on a MRI. Several different doctors have already told me that there's nothing structurally wrong with my knee. I've gotten a X-ray and received the same response, so I'm not getting a MRI unless I absolutely have to.
Second, what the hell else could have caused it but a squat form that was initially bad? You say I make "bad" posts, when I've pretty received some type of correction in nearly every topic. The very reason that my squat form seems to have no major flaws is because I consistently posted videos of it here and in the technique forum. If you want to call that bad, then fine. I don't give a fuck. Clearly I benefited long term, so that whatever I did wrong to cause these problems will not be a provoker of more nagging problems down the line.
Most importantly, you're just pulling shit out your ass when you sit at your computer and claim I'm not eating enough. Let me put some numbers down.
I started at 168-169 pounds. I stopped bulking at 215 pounds roughly. I think I ate properly. And I've only been cutting properly for literally less than two months tops. Where do you get the idea that I've been cutting for HALF A YEAR or something?
Okay, let me post some other stats now. Starting weights compared to where I hit on SS.
Squat: 135 -> 270
Deadlift: 135 -> 315
Bench: 90 -> 205 x 3
Press: 55 -> 125
Rows: 110 -> 185 x5
So don't sit here and claim I didn't do the program. You're right I'm frustrated, and I don't kindly take to you effective trying to shit on all my efforts up to this point. I'm not posting these topics for the fuck of it; I'm trying to figure out where I've gone wrong. And if you can't do that without making up a bunch of baseless assumptions or labeling me as a TROLL of all things, then stay out my damn topics.
Really, it's amazing I've put up with these personal attacks up to this point. I'm still a novice and I'm still growing, but I'm not a dumbass. I HAVE THE BOOK and I've read it.
