There are actual idiots doing these same type of exercises at our YMCA here in Surrey, Canada.  I'd seriously shit-kick them if they fell on me while doing a set.  Pure f@@king assholes, none of them got any muscle either.  TRUTH

Looks like the same type of assholes that come to the gym to skip rope and shadow box in the free weight section.

What the fuck are they doing in the gym in the first place one wonders. Go join a boxing club.

If anyone tried that in my gym in abby I think they would get laughed out of the gym and never recover.

one day he will fall over and smash his head on a machine. or he'll hurt another gym member. Some of these pussy trainers now just talk about " hey man, this is a core workout"..  i mean this will pack on the beef Bro...better than Deadlifts right?? I got a phone call the other Day from a Local Gym and they want to offer me a Free Training Day. It was a Girl on the phone..so i played along and said, "i want a 6 pack and want to lose my fat Belly...how long will it take? " After listening to a load of Bollocks i said " you will train me on the Day i come"?. She will train me ...LOL. Should be funny...only got the offer because my son trains in the Gym. I will not be bad to her but i will just see what she says. Sounded like a nice chic...you never know ;)

How are you man, long time no see. You are missed.

I never left though sometimes, it is a week or more between visits.  Just been busy, but still training and getting back to fighting weight.

I gained about 20 lbs because of being too busy and using eating as a sedative / leisure activity.  Now I've lost about half the weight and thinking that I might have gained 1-3 lbs of muscle if I'm lucky.

I also switched my training style to do around 10-12 reps most sets with little to no momentum.  I'm getting old enough to know that low rep progressive overload is just a recipe for injury.

What about you, still freaky ripped?

Oh I have discovered that I love Austrian wines, nothing better than a nice riesling kabinett.

"without a spotter"
What kind of spotter do you expect and what do you think he can do anyway?

Nah, just normal but hitting it hard and trying to stay strong.
I actually like american wine better myself. Been to Cali for some wine tasting lately and also like south american heavy reds.

oh yes then I can see why you wouldn't like your wines, I'm partial to white with a light taste almost like juice.
