They don't know what they're doing.
And if you're the bodybuilder guy, it's like, yeah, those weak functional guys, have them try to pick up groceries.
It's this thing where you will find your audience.
You will find the people that will agree with you, that'll rub your ego and tell you that everything you're doing is the best and these other people are wrong.
And I get it.
That's how all these groups develop their cult, cultish type of mindset.
And I'm not going to knock them for it, but that's why I try to be very careful with how I put things forward.
I'm not going to, I see the weaknesses that come from excessive amounts of traditional type of training, but it also has a lot of strengths.
I see the weaknesses that come from the functional side of training because you can't load a kettlebell as heavy.
You can't load a sandbag as heavy as you can a barbell or a machine.
You can't,
Lift on a machine, machines are great because you get to push in this linear fashion and load it.
Actually, one of the greatest machines out there for absolute load is a Smith machine or any of those machine presses, because you can really load that tissue with a lot of load.
But doing that chronically can have negative impacts on the way you move if you don't have anything on the other side that allows you to exhibit that with fluidity and force and interact with weight.
That's what this other tools allow you to do.
Ropes allow you to interact with a lighter load because a rope is still a weight.
Remember, rope is weight.
It means it's a technically resistance training because you're swinging a 500, 600 gram or two, three, four, five pound rope through space.
So you're resistance training.
A club can be 5 pounds, 10 pounds.
