I could almost see the trigger in my friends eye's So I was in the gym with my friend and he's a big guy, he is 6ft4" and is almost 280 pounds- it is definitely not muscle. He use to play as a prop in rugby but that was a while ago now. So we were in the gym and I was just doing my normal rounds. Like many hams in the gym all he does is squats but I told him he is only doing squats because he is good at it after carrying around all of his weight and he should just concentrate on cardio. I actually told him not to build any muscle until he had dealt with his obesity as that should be his main concern.  Anyway's he ignored that and started asking me how much I could squat, and then was telling me about how much more he could squat than I could. I said to him "fair enough, let's have a competition. You have won on squats so now it's my turn". I then turned around to the pull up bar and managed 26 reps and said "your go". He looked at me a little concerned, attempted it and couldn't manage one. It all went a little silent. I then turned to him and said "until you can do at least 10 pull ups stop doing squats and stay on the fucking treadmill". I think he got the message
