You dont know how right you are. I went to a health club the other day and was browsing one of their welcome packs. In it they had an FAQ. The first question:

Q. I dont want to get big muscles like bodybuilders. Can I still train?
A. You wont get big muscles like bodybuilders. You can only get big muscles if you take steroids or train for six hours a day.

- Ignorance, stupidity and bulls**t all blended into one!

Plus what kind of message does that give to young guys looking to put on a little natural muscle. They are going to think 'well I need to take steroids' or at best they'll think 'shit, I have to train six hours a day' and either give up immediately or give up after a few months of torturing themselves for six hours a day with no gains.
