# Why Range of Matter Doesn’t Really Matter 

The cult of range of motion is tired. 

A polemic, war cry *against* this loser range of motion idea.

## 1. Fake virtuosity 

Besides NASSIM TALEB, am I the only powerlifting philosopher out there? 

Also, am I the only bitcoin investor, MSTR shareholder who can lift over 1000 pounds? 

Join the 1,000 pound rack pull club.

So am I honest read on the whole thing is that people trying to turn fitness into a fake virtue signaling thing. For example, to complete a full range of motion with perfect form is the goal, to simply fit some sort of Procrustean bed of what is “proper”.

## 2. I want to see you get hurt

OK… Just search my thousand pound Atlas lift, I was essentially micro loading with the barbell, for like a full year. Everyone at my local gym, thought I was a bit peculiar; at first, nobody really paid that much attention to me. Eventually, I heard guys singing in the locker room, being suspicious that I was on steroids, because… Some guys Are on steroids who don’t look like they’re on steroids?

The reason with 100% proof you can know that I am not on steroids is that I don’t even consume whey protein powder. Also I do it while fasted. Also I’m not on Instagram. Also I’m already a bitcoin independent rich and wealthy.

Therefore, think about it… There’s no real incentive for me to take steroids because I desire to have more children, and I don’t want my testicles to be shot. 

And also… Come out look at me… I have like the clearest most beautiful skin of all time, I’m always topless, and I have glorious, Brad Pitt FURY haircut... and also, I don’t really even look that buff. I look pretty modest. I’m like Brad Pitt from fight club, but like the demigod version.
