what are your unpopular opinions?

[rfan2020]

I mean do you call your neighbor with heart failure or your brother with a liver transplant a pussy for being afraid of the coronavirus? Or is everyone you know in perfect health? I'm not personally afraid of it, just conscientious of others that I could kill with it. I think it's weakness to align yourself with any political side in a debate that sadly exists due to politicization of an infectious disease. Insofar as I am told, the polio vaccine was adopted without much debate. But anyways, back on topic, true a flat barbell bench can be one of the bad choices for some people, just as the full squat is bad for others, just as the hammer row machine is bad for others. Everything is contextual. I just say, do what you can to work on the basic human movements as best you can.

I usually align with the far right but I disagree with them on many things

not a fan of religion
not a fan of the flag
I encourage poor people and dumbasses to abort away, I don't want to pay for their kids and we don't need more people
not a patriot, I was born here I don't owe a country or any person shit unless im married or have kids (im not)

He said if you use flat bench do it like a powerlifer. He did say he’s not a fan because it’s not if but when you get injured doing it.

I don't recall the exact wording but I had thought he posted on one thread, or started one, basically saying he saw so many pec tears on flat bench. not sure what his suggest alternative was maybe it was what you just said

I’m a huge fan of DC. His philosophy had the most effect on me and how I do things more than anyone bodybuilding related. DC training is what I think most people should do and stick with for years. His advice on health and health supplements is why I never have bad blood work even when I go crazy blasting.

he is a smart guy but not a fan of his holier than thou persona he has created and the anger. helpful guy im sure a few supplements work but all 1,000 of them. and the 90 different powders, ill stick to food lol

fuck its crazy how many people In this sport claim they can't digest food anymore, and in the world in general. iBS, lactose intolerant, heart burn, gluten intolerant, no idea what any of this is I just eat what I want and my shit is normal 90% of the time no pea protein or qual protein or peacock feather protein needed lol

I don’t know about other people but I do have very bad stomach problems. The drs showed the pictures of burn scars on my esophagus from bad indigestion. I also take bentyl daily to keep my stomach from cramping and bloating.if I don’t take it I get bloated and feel like I’m being stabbed and can’t even stand up straight. I cant eat a lot of protein because I don’t digest it properly. Most of my protein intake and sometimes all of it is liquid. Liquid egg whites, hydrolyzed protein, pepto pro, and huma pro. I have ibs and crohns. When I was a kid everytime I’d eat I’d throw up. I don’t think this is a new thing I just think we have more access to other people and we have better ways to diagnose issues.

 

[rfan2020]

I am the opposite, I couldn't eat liquid egg whites, I crave food all day every day even when full, if I didn't have pride and into this bb shit,,id be 600lbs. I think years of eating tuna and oats, then I realized I could keep lean eating other stuff, I get crazy with it. always looking for ways to increase my calories while keeping lean or making my food more volumes aka eating sauerkraut and mushroom omelettes to fill me

I think fluoride is worse for people than is being admitted.
And the fact that it's pushed so hard by dentists and in products is odd to me.
The way some dentists talk about fluoride is like its some cult they are following.
I'm sure it helps your teeth, but so do many other compounds that are less toxic.

My unpopular opinions eh? Ok.

1) tattoos are douche - they were once cool, a symbol of badass rebels, then everyone and his mom got a tattoo, now they are a classic pre-requisite to being a millenial douchebag getting a job at starbucks. I was remotely considering a tattoo, then my mom, in her 60s, got a tattoo and at that moment i knew it was now more badass to not get a tattoo. Sorry tattoo boys, your gonna have to ride that shit out.

2) gauged ears are double douche - remember this trend? Fortunately it seems to be dying off, unfortunately thosr who partook are not dying with it.

3) money is most important - in a society based on a monetary system money IS the most important thing. Whenever someone tells me “moneys not important” i know they are a lying piece of shit, thise ppl who say that are the first ppl to stab everyone in their family in the back to get a piece of some dead family members inheritance after having spent their lives saying its not important (because they sucked at making it).

4) religions for the mentally ill - ya listen if you wanna believe in god thats fine, im agnostic so i believe there is a possibility of god - the universe is a mesmerizing place, but to believe in RELIGION is an obvious sign of mental fucking illness. When i argue with christians i ask “you believe in the bible?” And they are like “yes” and i go “so you believe snakes can talk and eating an apple created evil?” And alot are not willing to blindly commit to that as its as ridiculous as it sounds, but then i remind them to be a true believer you cannot cherry pick what you want from the bible, to be a true believer you must believe everything in the bible with absolute blind faith no matter how ridiculous it sounds. Like a bunch of primitive fucking humans who wrote that shit had any understanding of anything. Fuck off religion, all religions, you need to go the way of the dinosaurs.

5) addiction is NOT a disease - fuck all you emotional enablers who tell drug addicts and drunkards that its not their fault, that they have a disease. Its not a fucking disease its a fucking CHOICE. I was an addict, and nobody hates addicts more than former addicts, i made the choice to get high then one day i made the choice to stop, the end. Telling ppl its a disease is absolving them of being responsible for their choices. Sober up you pathetic drunks, or dont, i really dont care, but dont believe you have a disease called addiction - because you dont, your just a weak willed sack of useless shit with no ambition to become anything in life.

This is just the tip of my unpopular opinions iceberg. Are you offended?

Ingestion isnt good for you certainly.

But you should see countries with no flouride use....bro... everyone has a blackened grill.
I'm an obsessive coffee drinker and smoker and they make my teeth look like some Hollywood shit

Yeah you're right about that. Some countries have pretty bad teeth lol.
I use activated charcoal toothpaste these days, my dentist said it seems to work.
Full disclosure: it's only been a year. So I guess time will tell haha.

The charcoal can strip the enamel off your teeth.

I never thought about that. But where I was locked up I don't think our toothpaste had fluoride. Even brushing my teeth twice a day, no sweets, no smoking, and no coffee, my teeth were yellow after a couple years. Actually had friends comment on it after I was out.

Now most days I only brush once and my teeth are at least halfway white and I won't get into my coffee and Copenhagen habit.

Thanks, I appreciate the heads up.
This is what I like about Meso, members always looking out for each other.

2. agree

I used to sleep with crest white strip, those things made my teeth white as fuck, too white, and didn't take the enamel off

but I do believe they can and sleeping with them is a bad idea but in my case it didnt

no idea about the toothpaste

trans people are basically professional cross dressers, like on a pro athlete level because they use hormones and surgery to change their sex.

also, there are only 2 genders and they should ban trans athletes from sports.

Ironic isn't it? Steroid users are cheaters, but a man can lie and say he identifies as a woman and cheat the fuck out of womens sports.

Banning them or segregating them would cause an uproar now thanks to forced acceptance, so fuck em. Let them cheat and destroy the records for professional sports. The pro organizations made their bed of blind acceptance and now they can lie in it.

I like his recommendation to avoid blood clots…
