Appreciate you contributions here, and you're spot on: it's not JUST lifting. People in power have used these tactics to hoodwink others for generations, and people are all too willing to fall for it because of the security it provides. It's so awesome to know that all this inadequacy will be worth it...SOME day, haha.Emevashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983296057210465714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241010404351033906.post-4840263085169483132022-05-28T17:14:28.661-07:002022-05-28T17:14:28.661-07:00I hope I can be forgiven for necrocommenting here ...I hope I can be forgiven for necrocommenting here but I am struck by the similarities in this way of thinking between the lifting and running communities to this day. <br /><br />It seems like the online running world is plagued with people afraid to go against the gospel of 80% of runs at "easy effort" or SLOWING WAY down once their heart rate gets above 150. People afraid that if they wear the wrong shoes or if their heel touches the ground at the wrong time that their IT band or achilles tendon is going to explode. <br /><br />No one following these rules can progress beyond plodding 12 minute miles because that would require effort which is against the rules.<br /><br />It's the same with dieting or weight loss. The current gospel states that if you're ever hungry, or denying your cravings, or excluding a food group, or counting anything it's (cue horror movie music) DISORDERED EATING! <br /><br />It's funny how "convential wisdom" seems to dictate that everyone will spin their wheels on and on into eternity.Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10357577333982269422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241010404351033906.post-53990535160164337892014-07-26T13:35:44.864-07:002014-07-26T13:35:44.864-07:00Your comment is eloquent in its simplicity, haha. ...Your comment is eloquent in its simplicity, haha.
