Hi all,
This thread is worth bumping. So much to say, let's number the points:
1) cl2606, Sir, you are a gentleman. What tough ethics you believe! Helping a friend but not offending a community. When I grow up I want to be like you.
2) Thanks & congrats to StrongFirst for providing this forum. Great new company.
3) This forum enticed me to participate, just for the quality. What fun!
4) It says "Ladies and Gentlemen Only" and "Strength Open Forum" That should be enough.
5) Let's keep the quality high.
6) Buy and read most of the books and DVDs. Honest pros deserve payment.
7) Controversy is fun.
8) Factual statements about physical reality is better.
9) Humor is not appreciated in this camp.
10) Counterarguments are OK -- mobility first, or endurance first, or whatever.
11) If you have a point to make, put it on one thread. One poster thought kettlebells were overhyped. Fair enough, but post it once. Instead of every thread.
12) Identify yourself. I happen to be a habitual amateur. Don't confuse me with a newbie or a professional.
13) Read this forum. It's already a glute-load of information.
14) Don't ask redundant questions. There's already threads about which brand of kettlebell to buy.
15) Everybody who posts has access to the internet. So please have a hint of a shimmer of one day hoping to have a clue of a dream of asking something intelligent.
16) That said, I'm not ashamed to ask dumb questions if I honestly don't know.
17) Re-bump old posts instead of starting your own.
I like to end on a Fibonacci number. Please add your own thoughts on keeping this forum high-quality!
