I find the current social media culture to have a feminizing effect on the male psyche

The constant need to demonstrate ones success, the peacocking, the belief that fame is necessitous to make money

It creates a dynamic of a man demanding constant attention...
There is nothing masculine about it.

The belief that a mans achievements should speak for themselves, this is a valid idea

Your competency and reputation precede you, you are talked about, but this is downstream effect, not a goal of and in itself
I have many zoomer age men that follow me now, and I correspond often with them

So much of their focus is how to generate attention towards themselves

But they no depth, they struggle to orient themselves and what they should learn outside of being observed

BRIG 20 EXERCISES:

These are the best isolation exercises to perform if safety and joint health are of paramount concern

2. SHRUGS For Trapezius

Doug didn’t claim to reinvent the wheel

Many common exercises were fantastic and aside from his preference to use cables, there was no need to get fancy

HOW TO WORKOUT IF YOUR BODY IS A WRECK:

You could make an endless list of joint issues that inhibit exercise

But if you still want to train, how do you train around them?

The Isolation based methodology of Doug Brignole is one you need to know about and apply... Image
Doug Brignole passed away last year (RIP), but in the final years of his life, he made a major impact on the fitness industry

Doug was a veteran bodybuilder and won multiple AAU titles,

He developed a training methodology grounded in physics and pure biomechanics... Image
The basic premise of Dougs method was that ISOLATION exercises were more efficient for musclebuilding than compound movements

This is heretical to mainstream fitness, which constantly preaches squat bench deadlift press

But Doug did not care about Dogma, he was hyper logical...
