Jim Butts Intermediate Member Username: jbutts Post Number: 65 Registered: 10-2003 I apologize in advance for perpetuating this crap.

Lots more money in loving the military than serving it.

Bunch of Rhodes Scholars over there. The number of posts there that ignore your point and make arguments that have nothing to do with Glassman's (or that pesky DL claim) actually make me embarrassed for them, which I didn't think was possible.

But we're the idiots, which is a scream.

Why not cool? He is a dirty Jew isn't he? Please explain.

Gotcha. So, just to be clear, do you agree or disagree that KB balistic lifts do not train explosiveness? That is what Bill and others take exception to. If explosiveness is speed-strength, then I definitely agree. KBs are neither heavy enough to deliver limit strength nor fast enough to deliver sp...

This is a great thread.

Good-god-a-mighty, it's still going on and I'm still here too. And I know better... This discussion of whether KBs train explosiveness better than BBs borders on the "Who is stronger, gymnasts or powerlifters" argument, which is really just another version of "Could Batman beat up Sp...

Re: Glassman's losing his shit now....reverse magic manna

This is still a top thread on both forums, so this must still be fun. Bill, having read your post here and your post on XFit, I am unclear as to what your claim is. It seems unclear on XFit, too. Hard to believe the lack of clarity isn't willful. Couch said: the line of KB snatch "will not deve...

Scuttlebutt sez Couch G showed up on a spec op forum touting his methods in what I'm sure was his usual modest fashion, and Nate flamed him over lack of evidence and credentials. Couch wasn't pleased.

True. But since at least five people, some with half a brain, have tried to find confirmed info about this study and come up with nothing, including alleged witness and sloppy authors who wrote about it, you start getting close to proving a negative. But you can't, of coarse. Can you give a referenc...

The topic on Dr. Squat was specifically Oly lifters beating sprinters in a 10 meter dash. The first sentence of the post indicates that's what he's talking about. There were a dozen threads on DD about it. Everybody who believes it says it happened in '68 in Mexico, including, according to Makena, T...

Reference, please.

BTW, it was 1964, not 1968, and Hatfield's old Oly coach Joe Mills was involved.

Edit : 1964 not 1946
'64 Olympics weren't in Mexico City.

It's in lots of books, then you ask the author for details and the backtracking starts. Hatfield has it in his book and retracted.
