[QUOTE="BigTex, post: 235261, member: 43589"] Never said it would not work, it is not optimal and certainluy not the only way to train. I teach my beginning weight classes to do exactly what you mentioned. When the weight gets easy add more, we never leave the machines. Most of them will never walk into a gym again after they got our 1 hour required credit to graduate. I however, don't spend 40 hours in the gym, not even close to that. I meet the current health guidlines of 75-100 minutes of vigerous activity a week. Usually 275-300 minutes (4.5-5 hours). I guess the purpose of being in the gym for many is life extension, right?
