"The Truth" w/ Eric Broser (Q&A and Training Articles)

[bodyfx2]

That's not a problem, I'll be sure to do that.
I'm a bit confused why the change in rep range. On page 1 the sample chest routine is in the 3-4 range. I would like to understand this as best as possible to fully utilize this program. Like most serious bodybuilders, when i start a new program I get fully involved in all aspects, constantly trying to hit the target and achieving it's full potential.

On the first movement, make sure you can get 3-4 reps on your own. On the second make sure you can get about 4-6 or a bit more on your own. On the stretch movements look to get about 6-8 on your own.

These are not CONCRETE rules though. Some days you can try a bit heavier or lighter weights, but keeping the principles of the program constant.

Don't want children? I will just CRY now.

As far as the other part, remember that I was on Dave's Lipolyze for about 3-4 months (but then there was break) and I still take one Somalyze at night before bed. You know I am a FREAK about drugs and too many supplements, so sorry!

LOL, I told my mom I didn't want kids and she totally freaked out. But I was only being honest. To me, at least at this time, I don't see it ever being something I would want (kids that is).

LOL...not everyone wants children my dear! I know that I don't! My two dogs are enough for me!

I will not express my sadness here. The world would be a much better place if you reproduced.

Now I wonder if this sick feeling is the fat burner, hunger or just me being so, so sad????????????

I feel the same way. My 4 legged ones are my kids. I can spoil my nephews and niece and give them back. That works perfect for me.

Who? Me personally, or everyone in general?

Kids are not right for everyone. Just because we have the ability to reproduce does not make it mandatory or beneficial to do so. You have to TRULY want to be a parent, which I don't...despite the fact that I believe I would be a good one.

That is one of the greatest things you have ever posted Eric. I truly believe you'd be a great father as well, but your honesty about reproduction and that statement could not be further from the truth. Being an educator I just wish people that don't have the characteristics to be a good parent would realize the same things.

Thank you Hoss. There are too many kids in this world with lousy parents, and often these people do not stop having kids. Its disgusting. Before having a child one should consider that once you do that child needs to become the most important thing in your entire life. You have to be totally dedicated to being a parent in mind, heart, and spirit. If you are not, do not have a child.

DUH. Yes, you personally. And hopefully you will not regret feeling this way in 20 years....which is my fear.

Well, YOU have the mindset to be a parent...but I don't. Too selfish.

Better than having a child and regretting it.

Respectfully disagree. In my job I work with many, many wonderful parents who have been given the challenge of raising very sad, problematic and/or handicapped children.

I don't think you can make a global statement like that.
