Probably not a bad point, but generally back in the 80's the Gym owner would walk you through your first few workouts, his qualifications was usually owning the gym.
 


And that is why you are Big Mick - you got strong while the rest of the idiots copy how to destroy your kidneys/liver and body "insert random youtuber here" or rich piana's "dead at 60" cycle lololol
 

Not trying to inflame anyone into wars, but just adding to the discussion, this bloke just won a comp.

But is what he is about any good? Not if you use drugs that have no proper test or long term research periods.

You can win any comp, bench heaps, powerlift heaps, by using drugs, damaging your tendons, joints, bones, but remember that knowledge is not the same as what you look or accomplish as a lifter. Hence why physiotherapist and doctors don't look like bloody fitness models.

Not being inflammatory, just stating what you might have missed in your excitement and passion about your fav youtube vids. Being natural to me, without drugs, supplements or doing jerk movements that damage your tendons is the most crucial aspect of lifting.

I grew up reading Weiders muscle and fiction magazines, it got me no where, wasted a lot of time.
it took a long time for me to realize that doing 4 sets a body part sub maximally was getting me nowhere and was in fact in an over trained state in a sense that I was actually losing muscle and strength
