Saturdays in the gym...........
« on: March 25, 2006, 12:48:03 PM »
what is it about Saturdays that brings out all the high schoolers doing 50 sets of benches with a 35 lb. plate on each side, 200 sets of pushdowns, the fat chicks doing adductor machine squeezes and the butt blaster, the 6'3" 148 lb'ers doing seated calf raises with 6 plates with a spot, WTF? it's as if there's a full moon bit it's daytime.

Maybe because they want to pump up their "biceps" to impress people in the clubs.

In Norway everyone tries to get fit for the weekends starting on mondays, and it seems like they think that one work out will do for the rest of the week  :P that's why I never work out on Mondays, too much people.

i always schedule back or legs for saturday.  why bother trying to wait out a bench or the DB area with all the scrubs playing over there.  

Also, every sat is powerlifting day.  Today the big guys had this aerosol spray you put on your back, I think to prevent sliding/moving while on the bench.  Whatever the cause, their backs were torn and bleeding after a few sets.

LOL @ "27 more reps".  That might be right up there with "moster triceps" and "brutal mass".

Every Saturday is universal chest and arm day.  Guy's throwing on their finest bodysuits, spikeing and gelling their hair up, and sporting a cloud of CK1 or Coolwater.  Painful.

No, I set up a fully-equipped gym in my house. It was expensive and time-consuming to put it together, but way worth it to never have to deal with "gym people" again. It also makes it far less likely for me to miss a workout due to time.
man i wish i had the room.

Great thread.  I resort to sat nights if I need to go (24 hour gym).  There are still some honkies there at that hour, but at least there are fewer of them.

Honkies??

You mean us white folk, negro?

I'm white too, but these are serious honkies - like it's trailer park discount day or something...  How can these people afford 50 bucks a month for the gym?

It wasn't cheap, but it's a great piece of equipment. Practically unlimited number of exercises, and it'll last forever. It literally weighs half a ton... it's a good thing my house is built on a slab, I don't think plywood floorboards could support it.

Is it too big (tall) for a 2 car garage??
