I just re-read my previous post and thought that it might have came across a little harsh. That wasn't my intent. Even after my experience of doing exactly the same thing, I look back and wonder how I got this notion. When I came back to weight training 8-9 months ago I started by trying to do the same things that I did when I was 20, i.e. a split routine. After a month or so I wondered what in the frilly heck I was doing. So, I started writing out my "routine" and realized that it just didn't make sense. This is what prompted me to start looking for real information on exercise and the body. It's what brought me to The Fitcast and JP Fitness.

I'm still shocked by how much poor information has worked its way into fitness culture. Even when I first started listening/reading fitness info this time around I had to wade through a pile of crap to get to the real knowledgeable population/publications/books/ etc.

So, my question.....Why? was a legitimate question. Not a sarcastic comment. I didn't want it to come across that way.
