but you're right about this, and you're right that i never gave a scientific answer. but i don't feel i need to. why's that? because i wasn't the one making a statement that goes against what is considered common knowledge (which doesn't seem to matter to you, since you never picked up any info from others).

you see, if most of us think one thing, and we all picked it up from different sources and have never heard of your argument before, you need to back it up with proof of your argument. that's how discussin/debate works if you want to change people's opinion. you see, you could have taught us all something, but instead, by not backing it up, you come of as a random person telling us that the sky is blue because god used blue paint when making the sky. could you be right god used blue paint? yep, but prove it.
so basically, if you're gonna make a claim that goes against the grain, the burden of proof is on you. i think that's all i ever asked for... [/B]

Forget the topic and complain about how I write now...that's ok.
This is some interesting reasoning, one which I'm not familiar with. 'common knowledge' does not mean anything. 'common knowledge' can be wrong. 'common knowledge' doesn't give you special privileges that excuse you from providing scientific proof of your own. In fact if you have any to dispel my claims it'd be great.
My claims are not opinions. They are simply describing how the human body parts move and react. I'm sure there are studies in around 1850s describing how the rotator cuff works.
The thing is, my rebuttals are not as big a deal as you think. I'm not making super wild claims like 'weight lifting gives you cancer'. It's, again, about just how the anatomy works. If you frequent good lifting boards we won't be having this.
So I guess you want now peer reviewed literature on the function of the rotator cuff and deltoid and wrist flexion and yada. I recommend you go subscribe to Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research

I didn't think I'd have to do this much common sense convincing. But since I'm a stranger here I should make myself more known so I become part of the 'general knowledge' shouldn't I...
