I think a lot of bodybuilders get stuck in old ways due to what DC was speaking of on his point #1. They started with the basics and saw great results because they were starting out. Furthermore, their methods got further verified when their genetic make up allowed them to exceed the gains of 99% of other gym goers in the same period of time. It's only when they face the other 1% that they can't beat in gains that the first line of excuses surface. Usually that they don't use enough gear compared to the next person, or that they just don't have as good genetics. Don't get me wrong, both excuses might be very well justified but I strongly believe at a certain level it's also their comfort level not allowing them to try out something new (i.e. method of training, increasing weights etc...) that result in their stagnant gains.
