I see people doing **** like that all the time, they pick up the end with the weight and move it around, back and forth and what not.

So it's not rare to found a barbell in a corner like that.

In most gyms, that's pretty cleaned up. Not sure what the GGO was.

Monday evening, and I did only see a single new guy at the gym, who seemed to be amused about the way I used a wall like a bar, to rest my upper body. Space and free benches everywhere.
New year's run good, I think

bar in the corner is fine. Any bar you feel you like in any corner you feel like is not fine. That **** is for a ****ty bar in a designated corner because everything will be beat to ****.

The problem I had with that is there is nothing on tap there.

I'm confused about how Rare used the wall as a bar.

Rack pulls from above the knee are for giant ******s. Whoever is doing them invariably is an ego lifting piece of **** who grunts audibly in a way which is not consistent with the valsalva maneuver solely to attract attention to how much weight they have on the bar. To make things worse they often damage the bar by slamming it un-necessarily to get bounce so they have to do even less work.

**** rack pulls.

Lots of fatties tonight, mostly walking on the treadmills. The place was busy but not packed. Then the best gym troll Ive seen-

Tinybro Asian reg pumps up a treadmill to God knows what and starts to carioca, jump to run backward, back to carioca, hops off, leaves it running and peaces out.

Many lulz were had.

I came really close to filming a guy on the pull up assist machine standing on it and pushing himself all the way up so he was practically in a dip position, like it was some kind of kids ride.

Then I realized I would have felt uber bad -- it became obvious he had some sort of slight mental and slight physical handicap so props for him being in there alone and doing stuff, even if it was all sort of randomish.
