Most elite athletes and social media influencers only post their heaviest lifts on Instagram. Young, impressionable lifters see this and assume they need to lift heavy all the time. This is misleading because most elite athletes do NOT lift that heavy all the time. In fact the spend much more time training within a lower intensity range.
In this context, it’s easy to see why younger lifters assume that the majority of training revolves around lifting heavy. That’s what they are constantly liking and that’s where they stop the swiping and the scrolling to pay attention. The A.I. knows it. Thus, it’s not surprising that the majority of the content that pops up in most people’s feed is PR galore.
This situation puts the young, inexperienced lifter at a great disadvantage nowadays. Not only does he have to go through the long learning curve of getting proficient at foundational movements, which is hard enough in itself. But he also has to understand the purpose of the AI in front of him. And if that wasn’t enough he has to suppress the social pressure of everyone else seemingly performing high intensity sets all the time.
Today more than ever, we need to be aware of who we are as humans. We must be cognizant of how technology works, or otherwise we will end up with a distorted perception of reality.
Remember that the flashy Bench press PR was preceded by many, many boring, repetitive sets over a long period of time. The vast majority of your strength is built within a less intense range. The bench press PR is the culmination of hard work being done over years, if not decades.
