How many top level/pro bodybuilders do you see using straps? Pretty much every single one! Or am I just seeing things?
No need to bring relevant information into the discussion! Haha... Yeah I was thinking the same thing this afternoon. Every video I see has them wearing them. Jay and Kai have no functional strength...
How many of you are top level pros? If that's how we are going to judge I guess you use the same routines as them? Same weight perhaps? Look at them before they reached that level and it will give you a better sense of what they were doing when they were your size. I've never seen kai or jay doing functional work so I can't really judge functional strength, what I can do is tell you at different levels of muscularity, different levels of a sport and for different goals you train differently. They are in fact training for vanity that is what bodybuilding is.
It was you II that said grip holds you back without straps...what's wrong with the idea of making a weakness a strength? I understand our goals differ as I want to be overall strong but I still don't see how anyone here can think that emulation of the pro's is the best course of action.
