Strength gains

You didn’t have to say it. The fact that you said dog crap says enough. Also, lr1400 saying “cute” is a bit condescending as well. So much for establishing the requisite physique. So much for Charlie’s advice to look the part first.

My point is initially this was a good discussion that shifted it’s focus to whether or not someone played at a high enough level? I’ve helped train guys that played in the NBA and I’d be lucky if I could dribble past my 12 year old nephew. As far as your coach having a purpose, put a world class chef in McDonald’s and he’ll be limited in what purpose he has for the fries and big macs. I’m not saying he can’t make a decent meal, but it would be a different story if he were in a world class restaurant in Paris.

We have people out there drinking the kool-aid saying not to squat, influenced by a coach whose team has won only 50% of it’s games played since his groundbreaking DVD’s were released. Perhaps the comments on the BOSU indicates a battle going on there as well. When coaches perceived to be at a high level don’t know how to put the meat and potatoes of a workout together, the industry has a bigger problem than what level someone played at.
