I still struggle with squatting the bar only. I find it hard to balance, it's so much easier with at least 135 on.

I hear a lot of people say that... I'm fairly sure that must point to some mobility issue... Probably ankles.

Maybe, I just have a hard time balancing it and controlling it.

Saw an incredible ass in yoga pants at the gym today. It was nice.

She was being trained by her fat overewight DYEL boyfriend. Ain't that how it always goes? He had her doing some stupid ****. Pushdowns followed by some inchworm/bearcrawl type thing. But she had a great physique and a great booty.

There is one bf/gf combo where the dude is legit yolked as **** and the chick has one of the better butts I've seen. She does what he does and it's more or less legit.

Love yoga pants.

Last week there was this chick with a nice little booty in volleyball shorts. Couldn't stop staring.

Last week one day, I followed this chick on the way to the subway who had an ass that yoga pants were made for. I was sad when we parted ways.

I'm pretty sure it's this for me, need the weight to help push me down into position.

I thought this until I got to the point where he took the dumb bells out of the guy's hands

ETA also I think carrot top has a much "nicer" physique?

Why are the weights bouncing? Are people throwing the weights at the mirror? Is there a platform or are you lifting on a trampoline?

wtf is a bumber plate?

I've seen two times where someone was stripping the bar on the rack everyone uses for rows (and sometimes curls), and the bar flipped and almost broke the mirror.

Our platform for deadlifting is right by the mirrored wall and I've had the bar slide and hit the wall. It makes sense.

A bumber plate I think is one that makes you feel bummed out?

Our gym had mirrors that went to the floor. They were broken about once a week. Finally they raised the mirrors about 2 ft. No more broken mirrors.

Our mirrors start about 2 feet from the ground.

Should be safe from bumbers bouncing into them.

Surely there is a market for clear plastic mirrors that don't break and have excellent mirror like reflection properties. Every gym I have been to has had smashed mirrors.

Its cold as **** where I live, record setting low this morning. I went to the gym at 9am and every single cardio machine was in use, but the pool was empty.

Had the only power cage all to myself. Platform was in use by the mega fat guy who has been doing oly lifts for at least two years, has dropped over 100lbs but still has over 100 to go, and is getting pretty damn strong. He lifts every single session, at least 3x per week, with the yoked female trainer I've previously posted itt. I don't want to know how much that costs.

there's a gym in my building, and there's a personal trainer dude who lives in the building and works with people in the gym.

overheard today :

trainer : hey, did you hear today that nelson mandela died?
hot chick : no! that's so sad...what floor did he live on?

Nothing pisses me off more than a person who uses the bench right next to you when there is only 1 other person in the gym and there are countless other benches, machines or squat racks that he could be using instead.
