I got to see my doctor this AM at 9:20......she`s talking....I`m drooling....damn she`s hot!! :P
Anyway she tells me I`m in good health, and that at one point they were concerned by my somewhat elevated blood sugar.....after a thyroid test a while back, that was found to be fine.
Anyway while were talking I tell her I`m gonna` rejoin my old gym at the University (there are only two gyms here both on college campuses unless I want to drive 100 miles round trip to do legs....that got old fast....I can do upper body at home),so she tells me...."Oh I workout there, but in your case since you never got a Covid shot and refuse to get one,they`ll make you get one....it`s mandatory if you want to workout there".
I was pissed...what a letdown cuz that gym is great,and I plan on doing a contest in a year and a half or so.....maybe even two.
I can train legs at home but it`s very limited.....I need machines....I can`t squat anymore my back is fucked ....so I`m pissed off, and I leave and go over to the other college 10 minutes away.
Now I have trained at this place in the past also and they have a line of machines by "Hoist" called "Roc-It" they fucking suck.....if you use almost any of these machines......they move while you`re doing a rep.....WTF ???
For example while doing Seated Rows.....the whole fucking machine is rocking like the old horsey rides you put a fucking quater in outside of grocery stores! LOL ;D
Anyway,for legs they have what I call a "Fischer Price" leg press.....the kind you sit on and press the plate forward....I think it`s good for Unilateral Leg Presses but nothing else....plus a good extension and seated leg curl machine.
Then I spot a brand new 45 degree Precor leg press machine.....brand new.......guess where I`m gonna` train....plus for a 3 month membership its $35.00 cheaper than "Covid City" ::)
The nerve of people today telling someone they have to get the jab just to fucking lift weights!! >:(
Anyway,glad I stopped at the other gym cuz it kept my hopes alive!
Sorry for my Matt C. imitation.
Just kidding Matt! :)

You should have asked her why, since it doesn't stop transmission or acquisition.
Or just get a fake card.
-
Pics?
-
Glad to hear you are in good health wes. I’d rather train with rocks and trees than get a covid shot so fuck them.
-
Those Roc-It machines are f'ing horrible...
Romper room bullshit of peace.
-
Those rocking machines are the worst. LA and Crunch love to buy them. Fucking sucks

Lol. ;D
They are STILL doing this...in the USA?
This must just be because it is university gym.
Universities are batshit far-left indoctrination factories.
I can't think of any of reason why this would be. Universities tend to be the most far-gone on these issues.
I'm fine with individual organizations privately deciding on these matters - let the free market sort it out.
But I'm still a bit surprised...in general, the USA is not doing this.

You`re surprised......I was pissed and really bummed as I thought that gym was my olny recourse.
It`s set up similar to Soul Crushers gym....one room has dumbells from 5-100 pounds.....the other room has dumbells from 5-150 pounds.....tons of benches,power racks,lifting platforms,and more Olympic sets that I have ever seen in one gym in my life....PLUS a Nautilus Leg Curl,Nautilus 4-Way Neck Machine.....but the nitwits did remove an awesome Glute Ham Raise machine made by a company called "Power LIft".....it rehabbed my back.....I started using it with one 25 pound plate and ended using over 200 pounds on it and my back issues were gone.
Anyway,just relieved to know that the other shitty gym has a real leg press.

Still flogging that dead horse (covid)::)
-

Dude if someone just gifted me an entire line of those machines....I`d douse them with gas and light those fuckers on fire.......total junk......AND they cost a ton of coin.....they could have done a lot better if they had a clue as to WTF they were doing.

Unreal isn`t it.....I`d go to prison first before they made me take in that poison.
How can you tell an adult what they can or can`t put into their body or their will be a penalty?
ASSHOLES!!

Pics?
I`ll PM you some big boy! ;D

Screw `em bro......I`ll be fine now.

Especially as the crisis has long since disappeared. Do they require other jabs for you to be able to train there?
::)

So, I'm confused.
There's two colleges.
One has a great weight room and one sucks?
But the sucky one has the new leg press?
We also need pics of your doc. Can you sneak some pics when she's not looking?

Wes many years ago I was training in my buddy’s garage and his house sold quicker tvv he an expected so we were out of a gym.A friend of ours told us they had a great gym at one of the local hospitals.So we go up there and they tell us yeah they do therapy on patients who have had heart attacks and back surgery and shit like that and we told them they probably didn’t have what we were looking for.The gal told we’ll take a look and I could not believe it.They had everything a serious lifter would ever want.Many dumbbells and Olympic bars and you name it. I had no idea this place existed right in the middle of a damn hospital.So you never know where you might be able to find what you’re looking for

Wow,that sounds great!!
Many years ago,me and my training partner drove to New Haven Ct. to watch Mike Katz train.
So we got to the local "Y" where we thought Mike was training......some janitor directed up to this tiny little room with a few old barbells and a couple of dumbells.....we looked at each other and just left.
I guess we went to the wrong YMCA. :)

The great gym requires a Covid shot to train there....the sucky one has the crappy machines....it looks great but the machines suck....I will be wearing that Leg Press out bro.
You`re fantasy about my doctor is also mine,though mine is much more detailed and graphic ;D ....I doubt if I`ll ever get pics though.....stuck up bitch! LOL ;D
-
Yep
I bet you had 20 covid shots , all in your left arm so you could roll your sleeve up and flex for the nurse.

Still making people get the clot shot to workout at a fucking gym? What state is this? I bought a squatmax MD for my home gym. It's amazing for anyone with a bad back.

You lose,I`m still doing the contest and still didn`t get the clot shot. :)

She’s probably wrong. It’s not 2021. The covid shot is not a mandatory issue anymore.

Dave,that whole gym, and all of the people associated with the university are stuffed shirts and think they are the geniuses of academia....you`d have to witness them to truly get it.
I trained there for 12 years straight and they have the right,just like any business, to turn you away if they want to
Never had a problem there with anyone but they make no exceptions for anyone.
