Know a coach who trains olympic wrestlers, who suggests otherwise.. Guess we can both use anecdotal evidence too.

know 2 wrestlers who have won nationals who also suggest otherwise.

So, were beating a dead horse.

Anyway this is 1 uncommon tip that I swear by. What works for me doesn't work for you. I love feeling fresh as a daisy after a day of training while still making progress. Just don't go around telling me I'm WRONG and then try and use anecdotal evidence to back your argument lmao.

if you had said

" for me feeling sore is bad, and the best program is when i wake up without doms or soreness the next day works best for me " or something along those lines.

instead of posting a generalizing statement as fact.

i wouldnt of even replied

I didn't say it's a fact you just inferred that and came off as a cunt.

Train like a fucking savage.

you implied it, he inferred it.

Thank you sir.

Athletes aren't supposed to be extremely sore because of lifting. Lifting is supposed to be accessory work compared to their actual training. If you're sore from lifting and you're an athlete, you're reducing your productivity and ultimately reducing your progress in your actual training for your sport. It's also a fantastic way to end up on the bench with an injury if you go too hard in the weight room.

Not sure if this is what you guys are arguing about or not.

Look at a D1 athlete and compare them to a guy who doesn't play a sport and just goes to the gym to lift.

Go listen to Mark Rippetoe and his explanation of a good athlete and a great athlete.. essentially he says that two athletes with the same skill level but different compositions, the one that's more muscular will be always better.
