ANd Bruce Lee was almost paralyazed for life becasue of em. So be careful! -------------- Those who lift understand it. Those who do not, think we are crazy!

With weights this is gernerally true, mostly for your compound exercises. For some exercises, piling on the weight is not necessary. Good mornings are one of these I believe. Just a word of caution. Execution means much more than weight on this exercise.
