I had a HS bench press pack in the gym.  They were doing 225 and then went to 315 and did it once with a spot.  They were football players.  They were kind of acting like they were the thing in gym.  So I told them to leave the weight on when they were done.  They were watching me I could see in the mirror.  I warmed up with the 315.  I did it for 6 the first set then 8 after that with 5 to 10 second pauses for each rep.  The manager loves it when I do that.  It put the young lads in their place

Yeah my gym is full of these idiots right now, I guess cause schools out and they gotta get buff for the summer.  Most of them are skinny, wearing wife beaters, and acting all big.  They come in packs and act like fools talking loud hanging on machines, trying to lift way too much weight.  This tooth pick was doing cable side laterals with like 40lbs (about 25lbs more than he should have) and it looked like he was combonation row and press.  I just shook my head.

Do respect the kids that keep quite and train responsibally in the right fashion but they are few.  Sarcassm is right on with this thread......its monster true!

Sweeet!!   That's exactly my approach.....I always get em on curls.....they'll drop the 90lb dbs they'd be screamin with for sets of db bp and I ask if I can work in and use the dbs for sets of curls......it's always fun when I watch a group of "guys" sulk away in my peripheral vision AHAHAHAAH!!!   Classic pwnage Onlyme!!!

LOL, I know what you're saying. I saw a bunch of 11th and 12th graders 2 months ago, they were maxing out all the way to 375lbs, I was watching them, until I step in and slam 405lbs off my chest, and then they all try to asked me for advice

shut the f**k up, i'm not watching anyone but if you tell me you don't notice shit between heavy sets of squats when your senses are heightened then you're lying your ass off, don't even try to tell me you're one of these psychos who just stares at the floor between sets, those are the weird motherf.uckers.


 Is sarcasm melting down? :-\

Does that aid with greater negative resistance......gravity and/or negative reps past failure always did the job for me.

I have a set up like that in my gym, except we use 2 70lb. 5' chains.  The higher you  go, the heaver the lift and as you lower it, it get lighter.  Easy to put together and makes chest day more productive.
6 meals lift heavy and 1/2 hr cardio

Yea I like doing stuff like this now cause even though my shoulders are still very wide and my arms are big I have this huge gut still, so i think people who don't know me or have seen me before think I am just some fat old guy who is just in their wasting time.  So now that I am getting my strength back I am enjoying showing people I am not just fat but at least strong.  I am back doing seated front presses with 315 so my shoulders are getting their strength back to.  I'll be training with David Paul next week so hopefully I can put up a couple pics.  I just have to make sure no gut shots.

I have a "Today in the Gym.." story...This guy probably about 5'8 looks like a swimmer was working back...He was doing pull downs on this weird little plate loaded machine we have. After, each set he would let the wieght slam down and then walk around the gym like a lion in a cage sing out loud whatever sound was on his Ipod.....I thought WWSC...(What Would Sarcasm Do?)  ??? LOL  then I laugh to my self and continued working out....Hahahah... ::)

I've only seen that done a couple of times and wondered what they were doing..I kind of figured it out but never tried it..sounds like it's logical..
