DON'T DEADLIFT IN THE SQUAT RACK

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>35726294
Yet another Ausfag shitpost...
People pay to use the gym just like you. If an area isnt being used they can use it however the fuck they want as long as it doesnt hurt anyone
>>35726294
>commercial gym that doesn't have extra barbells
what do you want me to do, take the bb 10 feet away and do my deads and rows in the freeweight area? and leave the squatrack without a bar?
fuck off m8, it's easier to do almost my entire workout in the squat rack
>>35726294
If nobody did any of those things squat rack would be forever empty since i am the only one that squats regulary there.
My gym has 1 squat rack and 1 bar and I saw guys doing pullups in it last time
Pisses me off
>>35726294

>>35726366
Yes faggot there are barbells on shit that people aint using, move the fucking barbells.
>>35727973

>40kg

>>35727990
10kg - black
15kg - yellow
20kg - blue
25kg - red
>>35727998
All the plates in that gym are blue, you can see blue Dumbbells and blue 2.5kg plates in that picture.
>>35727998
For bumpers, yes (although 10s are usually green).
Random coloured plates can be fucking anything.
>>35728010
>>35728011
Good point. Didn't notice that everything else is also blue.
>>35726481
This
Since nobody uses it i squat, deadlift, shrug, row and ohp in the squat rack.
i do OHP in the squat rack too
my gym only has one and no one ever uses it anyway
>>35726294
>using fancy squat racks
i squat like a man. only me between the weight and the floor.
one of those days i'm going to die squatting.
>>35727880
1 blue plate
>>35728043
Is it wrong to ohp on the squat rack?
Need to unrack from somewhere, goddamnit, for proper form of course
>>35728109
I do proper form by cleaning it. I am literally weaker if I grab it at neck height from the rack
>>35726294
I do OHP at the bench (one leg on each side) before bench press.
R8
>>35726307
This.
As annoying as things can be everyone pays the same as you to be there. So don't be a cunt.
Unless someone literally takes Dumbbells, a bench, a machine your using for a few sets you can't really say shit
>>35728145
>seated ohp
DO YOU EVEN LIFT?
>poverty gym only has a squat rack so people have to use it as a bench aswell
Every Monday, it's set up as a bench.
Rest of the week you can squat and deadlift in it. Stingy fuckers won't pay 150 quid for a bench platform
>>35728165
Nah man I'm standing up, one leg each side of the bench.
>>35726294
lol i do my entire workout in the rack at the jetts gym
does that upset you?
>Mixed grip for lmao1pl8 (probably less since those may not be 45s)
fucking dumb roastie whore
>>35728075
live by the squat
die by the squat
>>35728189
its cool, people can still use the bench.
would be hilarious to see one guy benching and another guy doing OHP above him.
no homo though
I deadlift in the squat cage because there isn't enough space in the freeweight area
Plus there's a mirror on the side you can use to correct your form
>>35726294
Those are rack pulls
>>35726294
Get out Ausfags.
>>35727998
First world gyms are crazy
Hex shapped weights,colours instead of numbers,etc
>>35726294
>reverse grip
>>35726294
in my gym a small girl took the bar away from the squat rack. walked away with it. put on big 2.5kg used for DL and started curling with it. in the dumbbell area.
where there were freee DL and several preweighted curl bars next to her.
>>35726294
Whoa man I think that's my gym
Any idea where the pic is from?
>>35726294
Why the fuck do people deadlift in the squat rack? I don't get it
Went to my friend's gym, and holy fuck, shrugs errywhere.
>Shrugs in both squat racks
>Shrugs in power cage
I actually find this more aggravating than curling in the squat rack.
>>35729542
In Jetts, there are no loose barbells, so there's no point taking the bar away from the rack bc nobody will be able to use the rack anyway
Jetts is a filthy casual gym in that way
I got told not to drop my weights while deadlifting lmao6pl8, after that I moved to a different gym lel
>>35726366
This. My gym already doesn't have enough barbells for all the power cages, squat racks, and bench press stations, so I highly doubt me taking another would go over well. Plus the rules say you have to deadlift in the power cages anyways.
>>35729565
>not doing the eccentric movement of the deadlift
>literally half repping so you can pretend you're stronger than you are
>>35729565
people who drop are weak and just attention whores. you are nothing more than a girl.
I will squat then ohp and then deadlift in the squat rack. I go to 24hr and there's no extra barbells to use. No one usually uses the other squat rack so I don't feel bad.
They have like a deadlift platform thing but you can either start with the bar at waist height or it rests on pegs too low where I can get my feet under it for my right stance to pull so I do it off the floor in front of a squat rack.
>>35726294
Have you ever stopped to consider that it's called a barbell rack, not a squat rack?
>uni gym has three power racks
>with lifting platforms
>and spare barbells for each
>but no bench press stations
Any given day sees at least 2 of the 3 racks taken by dudebros benching, and people do barbell rows and power cleans on the platforms all the time
>only local gym is PF
>no squat racks, no benches, no deadlift platforms
>they only have smith machines
how fucked am I
>>35726294
You're right OP is you are going to be picking up a weight off the floor why would you have to use a rack for it. Just put it on the ground
>>35729812
excessively
My gym has plenty of equipment but there's no real free area to move around, feels pretty claustrophobic at times, especially during a rush.
>>35729519
>a girl curling 25kg
I don't believe you.
>>35726294
B-but there is only one platform at my gym
I d-dont want to wait all day to do my deads senpai
Am I in the wrong for using a squat rack for OHP and occasional pull-ups? I normally transition into squats after and usually do the OHP when there's at least one other of the five squat racks available. Clear it out if someone needs to do squat and just use the OHP rack thing.
I got super fucking annoyed at some tiny ass dudes using a squat rack to do floor press while there was a line for the racks. Don't want to be those ass dudes.
>>35728043
You mean you OHP in the press rack.
>>35726294
Literally just ask, "Is it cool if I squat here?". If they say no, just look at them like they're literally retarded and say, "But, you can deadlift/row anywhere..."
It will work 100% of the time. I can guarantee you that.
>doing anything other than squats in the squat rack
Fucking kill yourselves
>>35726307
I agree
There's a guy who does his whole SS in the squat at my gym. Even brings a bench to bench there. I hate that guy so much
>>35727950
fuck off
>>35726294
Have no other place to though
That is true if your gym has extra barbells. My uni gym has 1 bench 1 squat rack and 1 powercage.
I used to do OHP and rows on the bench (because you can bench in squat rack/ power cage) but I was told to do it in the squat rack or power rack for "safety reasons"
>tfw gym has outside area where I can deadlift in the sun with fresh air
There's a bench outside too but there's no pins and I don't have anyone to spot so I just bench in the rack inside.
>>35729542
There's no room elsewhere. And more people use benches than the squat rack. And there are no extra barbells.
>>35728177
My gym is like this. I signed up cause it was the closest one to my new place and open 24/7. I always feel so weird dragging a bench over to it. I pretty much only go after midnight now because I'm positive it would be hell trying to get to use it when there's more than 3 people in the gym.
And since it's Canada I still pay out the ass despite how shitty it is.
