And we do a lot.
It's because it's a means to an end, I think.
We do this to other forms of exercise.
Running is my favorite example.
The reason why running is the highest rate of injury of all forms of exercise, even though humans evolved or were made, depending on what you believe, to run, were actually made to run really, really well.
The reason why there's so many injuries is nobody respects running as a skill.
Everybody goes and runs until they're tired.
And this is what happened with strength training.
We look at strength training, and we don't look at it as skill.
We look at it as body parts, chest, back, shoulders, arms.
That's what I'm working right now.
Now, yes, those body parts are being worked, and they'll grow when they're corresponded to the exercise that you're training.
But if you want to really get the gains, if you want to build strength and get the muscle growth that comes from it, look at them as movements.
And when you're practicing good movement, daily practice, short practice, the right dose without fatigue is what's going to produce the best gains.
And this is why, again, this is why people are reporting, oh my gosh, I can't believe how strong I'm getting doing what feels like so little.
Which along those lines, your best bet is to build your calorie burning machinery, which is muscle.
because that's your best bet.
How would you like to burn more calories all the time rather than just when you're moving or exercising?
This is why building muscle is such a great strategy for fat loss.
It's because it moves you in that direction.
