gym etiquette ?

As for the dumbell I just use the 80's and above that way most people aren't reaching for the dumbells in front of me :)

Good idea, I'll start doing that too then...

Yeah I noticed that too. I still do lateral raises for my shoulders, and some other lighter db stuff. But come to think of it you are right, when I get to the 70s, - 100s, it's never a problem.
 
Anyone of you guys workout in a gym with no area for deadlifting?

Here in my college town I just deadlift in front of the rack because there is no where else to do it.....but when I go home (like for spring break) I use the YMCA and there is absolutely no where to do it. They don't have any power racks.....the last time I just did them in a random ass spot on the floor......and felt like an oddball. Any suggestions?
 
at my school, there's no rack, nor any space on the floor. i take the bar off the bench, and do the lift in front of the bench.

besides, when everyone else is just doing bicep curls or something, just tell them to fuckkoff when you're doing your deads.

random ass spot will do just fine, thats kind of the nice thing about deads...just a loaded bar you gotta pick up.

lola- do you train at Golds? the 'wood' platform is for deadifting- not oly lifts. The way Plrs drop the weight would ruin the platform...they always lift on matted floor.
 
Nah - I train at a college gym. Have yet to see anyone using the platform, maybe it's meant for dls.
