Our gym is so hardcore

[ruggermu]

my gym is so hardcore I'm the only person there who does deads or squats (some people do squats on the smith rack). people look at me funny when I'm doing my heavier deads and I grunt. it's as if i was in a library, i'm waiting for the staff to walk up and say 'shhhhh.'

oh well, at least i don't have to wait in line to use the cage.

I know what you mean. I've actually had many people tell me I better start using the Smith Machine so I don't hurt myself. And bro you say no place to do dips at your gym, I would be pissed !!!!!

i have really started to hate talking to most people at that gym i go to. all they do is complain that they shouldnt do squats and that they are bad for my knees. then they want to work in the rack with me for some curls. had a kid doing 1/4 squats the other day. weighed a weak looking 160, started with 225..... then he told me how doing them ass to grass didnt work as well because of the "lighter weight used". at least he had a bar on his back.

I used to use the peck deck religiously... I've since changed my ways. It's funny to see the "hardcore" guys go over there and look proud pushing up 180 lbs. I just shake my head.

i use the smith machine for squats sometimes when i don't have anyone to spot me. guess i'm a pussy. my gym doesn't have a pec dec at all!!! that's nice to see.

Our gym's Pec Dec gathers dust...dont think those that would use it have a clue on how to.

Pretty hardcore gym; half the gym is free weights including two full squat racks (w/ puke bucket by each one of them)

I don't know what that even is --makes me feel good not to use most of you find useless anyway!
