Nothing. They're one of the best exercises available.
Get out now, before it consumes you.
There used to be people here who knew what they were doing, but they've almost all left. Instead we've been swamped by the people that pretend everything they do is behind a layer of irony, so when they do something right it looks clever and when they're wrong "they were only pretending to be retarded".

I work at a gym, I'm the guy at the front folding those towels you use. Most gyms either send their towels to be cleaned by a third party company, or just use the cheapest/worst detergents available.

Always use your own towel.

Was impressed by a girl squatting 2pl8, she's a year younger than me, so she's 17.

Then when I get to the rack myself I see that she has the safety bars set waist-high and also has a bench she sits down on when she squats. She quarter-squatted 2pl8 with a chair bench to sit on wtf

When he goes to another machine you go to it.

When he says hes using that rack in addition to the others you tell him that you will share the rack with him. Don't ask tell him. If hes dyel as you say he'll listen
>>
>>37781477
That's when you play dumb/nofucksgiven and just use what he isnt using.

Want to superset? Get a home gym or take your chances when the gyms dead. I can't start imagining the arrogance required to say "oh, I'm not using that right now, but you're not allowed to use it either". Unless he's paying 3x as much as you are, you have equal claim to the facilities. Fuck him.

This kind of shit is exactly why I became homegym master race.

the owner is great. if he has room for it, he buys it. They've been around for going on close to 20 years now, I'd never go anywhere else. Only thing that is kind of lacking is the cardio machines, only about three treadmills, three ellipticals, and two bikes (that's fine by me)

Can someone help me out on this. He spends about 20-30 minutes on the squat rack with several sets of 185.

He wears powerlifting singlets, kneepads, weight belt, lifting straps and chaulk.

He looks like he knows what he's doing but it just doesn't make sense to me.

>>37786067
Saying you can't grunt during a heavy set is like saying you can't heavily breath after and during intense cardio. Shouting something after the set is altogether different, DYEL.
