Ok.... Everybody has the right to train wherever they want
fine.
what really puzzles me is this
ok I train at Muscle limit one of the most hardcore gyms in London 24 hr gym
yet you have guys all of 150lbs who come in.. not to knock them i started out light too they come in and do cable movements exclusively.. like rear delt raises one arm concentartion curls...front raises and the most cable crossovers i will come in see a guy chatting and laughing with his friend doing cable crossovers do a hardcore chest session ..come to do cable crossovers.. and still see the same guys on the cable crossover machine....
i saw this guy on the hammer strength press machines
after doing some heavy ass incline dumbell and flat dumbell presses..
and flyes and pullovers i asked this guy how many sets he had left
he said 18
like i said everybody pays their membership
but why come to a hardcore gym just to do hammer strength presses.... when u could do so in any of those soft leisure centre gyms... i think its unfair to guys who actually go to a hardcore gym gym to train hardcore. to have it invaded buy guys who have no interest in training properly (only there for summer) and hold up the machines doin damn foolishness.. i mean cable concentrated curls when your arms are 14 inches max.... you will never see them touch any free weights... aside from bench ..and the reason they do that is to ego lift and to answer the how much do you bench question.. i am sick of it.. i had to change chest day from monday to tuesday because on a monday evening you arent getting any of the benches as the gym is filled of 150 lb guy "benching" i meaning pulling bars off their friends chests
i can count on one hand the amount of hardcore gyms left in london.
it sucks
Shit man, I share your pain. Just the other day while I'm doing legs, this fucking skinny twerp (looked like Freddy Mercury) was fucking going around doing his "hardcore" leg workout. I go in there with a fucking plan, and I bust my ass.....this asshole has no clue, and goes from one fucking machine to the next with zero fucking regard for anyone else. I try to be considerate of others, so I don't see why it's so hard for people to do the same.
Fucking asshole Bogart's the fucking leg extensions and shit, while doing his fucking murderous He-man like 30lbs sets. It's one thing if you're rehabbing (I've been there), but these fuckers are just there to take up space. I leave my water and gym bag next to the machine, and take a few steps away to loosen up my legs, since they are so fucking fried, and next thing you know, he's trying to fucking take the machine I'm on as well.
Fucking asshole.
As far as Hardcore gyms go, they are going the way of the Dinosaurs.
All that's left are these fitness centers, which cater to fat people who wouldn't dream of showing up 2 fucking days in a row, or to skinny twats who "don't want to get too big".
