Fitness has gone corporate and many places don't cater to bodybuilders.

\actually
stairs are good for working the tibialis anterior
heels on step
see how many times you can lift toes up as high as possible
serious burn

Yep, i do this on the leg press. Just put your feet on the sled like normal, and like you said, just lift your toes up. Very small movement, but burns like a mofo.

Good to have you back, Moose.

Yup. Most of the 'gym' members are 40kg+overweight/obese whores who 'walk' on the treadmill at 2kmh and chat endlessly with each other BUT after an hour of working out ~~talking~~, they feel better about themselves.

I've mentioned this before but my gym sucks, it is terribly equipped; no squat rack, no smith machine, nothing for calfs, etc. But it is cheap and only 8 minutes on foot from my flat so I go there. Well there is nothing to do calfs with so I usually do calf raises on the stairs with a dumbbell. Never had a problem before but this 'woman' comes up to me and tells me I can't do it and I am friendly and say "don't worry, just two more sets and I will bring the dumbbell back to the rack." and then she gives me an angry look and gets some other 'staff' member, some 50 something guy with a pot belly that would make the Buddha jealous and tells me "he can't allow me to do it." and I am friendly and tell him that there are really no other options for training calves and I just have one more set. and he just tells me the same thing and starts raising his voice. Well for some months now there has been a complaint/comment book in the 'gym' and dozens and dozens of people have requested a squat rack, smith machine, calf machine, etc. and they just ignore it so I tell him if they would pay attention to people's complaints I wouldn't have to be doing calf raises on the stairs and he just claims "that is a separate issue." He then threatens to report me to the manager for "disregarding the rules". Schmuck. Seriously, came that close...lucky I am taking a week off now for a bit of 'holiday'. Moral of the story, whatever the rules are I wasn't doing anything wrong, wasn't grunting or anything, just doing some quick sets of calf raises at the only place I could...

change gym.

these kind of people sicken me.

Good advice for preventing shin splints. For people who can be bothered running, that is.

Btw Im not gonna bother starting a new thread about it.

She said she was maby traverling with her mother this weekend So she didnt know if she could visit me then.

So I have her 2 weeks and if she isn't here by then I don't want to see her, and she made sure she would infact visit me within 2 weeks,
But you can never take things seriously when girls talk lol.

But If she comes, Im gonna do a thumbs up fucking pose!

Gyms don't have to care because they make more money off casual types. Even name brand gyms are corporate and about selling people t-shirts and other crap.

Hard core gyms are probably a lot more difficult to manage. Liability issues, collecting dues from friends, low overhead, equipment costs, financing, upkeep, staffing, taxes, bills, w-comp, business plans, etc.. are all down to a formula when people buy into a franchise.

Finding people who'd be satisfied with nothing but weights, benches, squat racks and maybe a leg press is probably more difficult than folks would like to admit. How many of us would really go to a place that only had equipment for the three main exercises, free weights and a few dumbbells?

Stack up 2-3 45 lb plates on the floor. Put the bar through them so that they don't slide and also for balance. Do 1-legged calf raises there. Hopefully, they won't have a problem with that.

In a gym with no squat rack noone has ever added 1 pd of lean mass.

Get out there as quick as possible and stop waisting your time.

SamoanIrishman · « **Reply #49 on:** June 30, 2009, 07:10:06 AM »

Bro I would have told him to get his manager (while I finish my last set) then explain to the manager the issue and how I don't appreciate his staff raising their voice at me etc...

...then I'd "trip" and block the fat guys face with my elbow as Im walking out the gym to join another.
