I'm pretty sure I've read that Dave Tate did use barbell complexes, passed on from Alwyn Cosgrove, to lose fat.johnst_nhb wrote:You guys know Wendler was being very sarcastic with this, don't you?sanchezero wrote:that shit IS @fit.

Whatever is going on it includes a bunch of drunk college sluts which is A-OK in my book.Freki wrote:It could almost be the infield of the Preakness, which is notorious for drunken debauchery.

Re: The couch thread
No, Tate did not.
Complexes were hard for Tate to do because of pre-existing injuries. Tate has stated, in many places, that long, slow, low intensity cardio is the best thing he does to burn calories and burn fat because anything harder will compromise his weighted workouts, and the weight work is what he enjoys the most.

Lately I've been getting edgy and adding in some walks on a steep treadmill.
I'd bet I can still hit a sub-5:00 Fran too.

BB complexes will kick your ass though. At least mine anyway. I've been adding them in on occasion as a warmup or finisher.

lulz...rant is broke dick who gave up and does bikram. Tate is a productive accomplished bidness man who still finds a way to be a good dad and pursue his passion despite the injuries.

Re: The couch thread
If you watch the Tate videos under Wendler's you see him talking on a stair climber. I have seen him talk about dragging a sled with an injury, but long and low cardio for the rest.

Maybe, but my love for power bears is unending. Besides, I was just saying that LS cardio isn't the bugaboo it was made out to be, especially by those at @fit.Shafpocalypse Now wrote:Maybe someday you will wash the taste of Rant's dick out of your mouth.

Re: The couch thread
Aerobic training, in particular, LSD, is one of the most studied topics in exercise science, so of course couch would ignore it.

Plus, it's hard to do aerobics of you have a leg gimped from polio.
I'm thinking he had one of the last cases of polio in the US.

Its' polio now? First it was a gymnastic's injury, then a war injury and then a motor cycle injury. My guess is that it was a drinking injury.Shafpocalypse Now wrote:Plus, it's hard to do aerobics of you have a leg gimped from polio.
