Mine fits so no.

Ahh ok. Thanks

traps are 65 usually, and wtf pressing it overhead just seems freakish and weird

yeah, pressing a trap bar is wtf

Aren't we just debating high vs low bar squats which stress different muscles?

Most people that use a pussy pad do it because they don't know how to tighten their upper backs properly and use their muscles both as a cushion for the bar to keep the bar from being in contact with the spine and to keep the spine in a safe, neutral position. They typically let the padded bar rest on their rounded spine, which is harmful - now they have a pad digging into their rounded spine, so that hurts less than the metal bar with no pad, but its still obviously bad. Its harder to get a straight bar in a good, safe position with a pad on it, than without a pad.

People that are good at squatting know how to hold the bar properly with no pad.

Exactly.

I come back to this thread for the first time in years and I see people unironically advocating using the puss pad while squatting. What the **** happened here.

a wild sando appears!

You don't need a rack for cleans or rdls if there are other barbells and space to lift

Loaded up 10 plates a side on the leg press and a girl comes over asking me how many sets I have, I reply 4 sets and she stands behind me watching every set. When I was finished I asked how many she wanted me to leave on and she replied 0, she then proceeds to do 10lb a side 1 legged side press thingys(there is also an adjustable weight stack leg press she could have used) then once she's done she goes onto deadlifts lol could have just done them before instead of 15 minutes of standing... Also again yesterday on the leg press I had 10 plates a side and walked 2 steps to grab a few extra plates and some guy strips a plate off to put on the shoulder press, I ask him to put it back and he says "sorry I didn't think anyone could lift this much" like wtf y else would it be on there

I hope you took your sweet time while she was lurking behind you. So annoying when people do that, and all too common it seems.

Hmm that's a little unusual for a girl to approach someone lifting that heavy... maybe she wanted to talk with you

Gilr stands there for 15 minutes thinking "why won't this meathead pay attention to me!"

Yep my initial reaction was her wanting to flirt but is socially awkward.

Nah I don't think so I'd be more suspicious of it was a guy in my gym lol

I live in columbus ohio. Hit up the gym after work and its basically an instagram session with like 10 people here for the arnold(i assume). Guy with a legit camera and everything.

Brag: i was bigger then half of the guys and have only been lifting 18 months

Beat: only 1 girl was really attractive

Variance: probably photobombed a couple shots

Dont think any of them have any level of noteriety

Lol so this 50 yr old Russian woman in my gym uses the cable stack for these weird body pull up smash things I can't really describe well, but the owner was in today and politely told her not to do them and she lost it and told him to go **** himself and kept doing them and he explained he owns this gym and she is going to have her membership revoked and that set her off worse and she went on a rampage of weight stack smashing and profanity , eventually everyone in the gym told her to chill out but she wouldn't stop and the police were called but I left before they got there and on my way out she was telling everyone in the gym to go **** themselves.

Gosh and usually Russian women are so placid.

Maybe you shoulda just let her use the leg press.

lol i heard some weird crashing noises coming from the elliptical behind me today and there she was, i dont see how this is possible she must have begged her way back into the membership somehow but yet she continues to **** **** up

I'd literally pay per view
Please more of her. Invite her to dinner, .... , Profit!

Saw some guy sprint from the locker room to the front door to hold it for two chicks the other day, I believe he is still tipping his fedora as I write this

She should get a membership in delray

Havn't you heard? World Gym closed up shop and we'll be Misfitless for a bit as they get acquainted with the new Palm Beach gym.
