Well that's what I was thinking.

I see what you're saying and Dave I'm not trying to down your ideas, I'm just discussing. And I didn't forget that you're also training in MA. And I agree to some extent. What I am talking about is getting the most out of every type of training you do. This all comes back to specificity. If your body (CNS) becomes more effecient at a certain weitht exercise through many different types of neural adaptations and/or more muscle that strength does not 100% transfer to other movements. It is somewhat specific. The more disimilar the movement is the less the strength transfers. Your body does not say "lets take this bench press strength and learn to apply it to this other situation." Either the movement is similar enough to realize a lot of strength gain; or it's not. The closer the specific movements you train are to the demands or the sport, the better the results are lible to be IMO. But I'm just talking about the sport. If that is not someones goal, then it doesn't apply.

This is the point I'm trying to make.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
