Agreed.

The average Redditor's knowledge of strength and hypertrophy training is not what disappoints me. It's how confidently wrong they are.

At the end of the day, it's technique and also neural adaptation. It does not make a bodybuilder inferior to a laborer in strength as claimed by some.

You must be disappointed all the time because this same damn argument gets repeated every other day.
