Kinda want to try that lol! Afterwords I could flex and look in the big ass mirror like the other idiots. The funny thing about it is I'm bigger than everyone, but maybe 4 people at my gym and I'm not very big at all.
I say do whatever you want in a rack every other dumb ass does, but I will only squat, rack pull, and sometimes from the floor deads. Fortunately for me no on ever uses the racks, but the gym only has like a combined total of 2000 lbs of weight so that sucks.

It's ok to do curls in the squat rack, as long as you can do at least 135! (my rule)
+1 that happens to me and i only have one squat rack at my gym also

Id have to say doing deadlifts INSIDE the rack pisses me off more then curls. That is a waste of fucking space, why do you need to be inside the rack to pick shit up off the floor?!11111

If you gym doesn't have bars for curls then it sucks ass. I have yet to go to a gym that doesnt have at LEAST a plate loadable straight bar and ex bar for curls. Infact all the gyms ive been to recently all have racks with preloaded bars on them, ez and straight.

There are always those pussies that put ten pounds on each side of the bar and do curls in the rack. Then they rest about five minutes between sets! There is nothing more upsetting than getting all geeked up on the drive to the gym to squat some heavy ass weight and seeing "that guy" standing there! Oh the rush of anger that comes over me! I came in one day to squat though, and saw this beasty fucker curling 225 in the rack, I was like go ahead bro, dont mind me! That's pretty badass in my opinion. People look at me crazier when I curl 135 than when Im deadlifting 495 for reps. That day I just warmed up a little longer with some leg extensions.

seriously, dude, I would have to watch someone curl 225 too, that is so rare, I can not remember seeing that in ever, then again, no one deads either and I get weird looks when I do that.

Anything over 2 plates to the average gym goer is impressive. I stopped by a gym near my house when i was on break and was just taking it easy seeing what i could do with legs since my injury, threw on 5 plates and the whole gym dies and just stares at me waiting to lift, then just as im about to some dick comes over and asks me if i need a spot and i go nope, all set. Banged out an easy rep and smiled.
Your a fuckin beast BK
i do all kinds of shit in the squat rack. fuck em. 99% of the people are there to waist time any way. and with there goofy lifts with horrid form i may be saving someone from a broken back any way. if you ever want to see someone do a squat and make the letter s with the bar as they go down instwad of a straight line go to my gym for a day and you will see 20. that and people benching 135lbs with a couple 2x4's on their chest it is comical. i make it shoulder day when i see that so i can go side press that shit for higher reps right in front of them.

In my gym there is a preacher curl chair/ bench facing the rack. The other day I got in the rack and the dude doing peachers asked me to move as he was using the rack mirror...how could I argue
lmfao!

The guy doing curls with 225 was a professional wrestler I think, they were in town that week, and I heard they were staying at the holiday inn by my house. His form was cheating, but it was impressive just to see a 7 foot something tall person, especially a very strong one. I am only 5'8, so that was crazy just to see someone that tall. I put a beach towel over the rack in front of the mirror and squat outside the rack anyway, so Ive let people do whatever in the rack when Im squatting. When the weight is heavy I can't really see anything too well, so it doesnt matter to me. There's no mirrors in a meet and plenty of distractions, so its good practice anyway.

Thats my rule, you only do curls in the squat rack if your the baddest mf'er in the gym. iN this case I guess the dude doing the 225lbs curls was definately the baddest fucker there. Good call on the leg extensions while he finished.
