I don’t do traditional hypertrophy exercises except maybe extensions in a Roman chair, RDL and lu raises ( practically lateral raises). I usually do variations of snatches ( muscle, PS) and c&J.

Last night I some guys were watching with interest and I overheard a gym trainer comment: “that doesn’t build muscle. Look at him.” As if to discourage the guys.

Except for shoulders and traps I don’t look like I lift. I wanted to reply I am not training for looks but choose to remain silent.

How do you react to people who look down on weightlifting?
