My bally gym only has 2 smith machines,  its almost impossible to get a change to use it, i only really use it for behind the neck shoulder presses, i don't mind the chicks doing squats on it, or even the tiny tit guy dreaming of inclining 150lb on greased up easy slide pole, But this guy here with his bag of Gold Metal Summer Olympic Gymnastic equipment really pissed me off last night....I mean cant you find a bar at home and leave the weight room the people that actually go to the gym to lift weights ???

I see this shit a lot but I think these are military dudes that do it.  maybe it is some sort of marine workout that they try to replicate it with. Hard shit though.  You try it and see.

Picture this with the guys feet on the bench of the hamstring machine hanging accross the main aisle of the gym...

That was the first thing I saw last week.

I know, I know - pics or it didn't happen.  For some reason camera phones are not allowed in the gym  ;)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

looks difficult, but why do these complicated band and swiss ball workouts in a regular weight training gym? it just gets in the way of the regular trainers.

maybe 2% of people do this specialized alternative stuff, others do regular stuff, they get in the way, using equipment in ways other than it was designed for, with innovative exercises often taking up space and rendering 2 to 3 machines/pieces of equipment unusable by anyone else.

it's like Biggest Loser tryouts.

Shit you couldn't make up.  Fat people on 3 of the 4 bench presses - doing 1/16th range crunches on top of the benches.  Wearing t-shirt from some sort of food festival.

I'm still working on my GetBig Certification, But hey if you like to use a smith machine to do pushups using rubber bands to gain some monster flexibility and balance, then by all means do it, but do it at home so the girls at the gym wont laugh at you
