Tards Balancing on Exercise Balls
« on: November 21, 2006, 11:43:17 AM »
This is now getting out of hand - today at the gym a "tard" was balancing on an exercise ball in the squat rack - thats it  ! nothing else.  "Tard" did this for approx 20 mins....

I guess this would also be acceptable behavior at planet Gayness, but the guy grunting while benching 400 plus pounds is ban worthy...

that clown wasn't benching 400lbs., he was quarter squatting 500 in the Smith Machine, if you look at him 400 would crush him on the bench.

One day someone's gonna fall on his/her ass, and a dumbell is going to crush the individuals face and kill him/her in the process.

Then it will stop. For a while. And a few years later, it will resurface.

Its called natural selection.

I think the tards here are those who havnt yet grasped the concept of doing an exercise like this.  He's obviously not doing it for MASSIVE QUADS... jeez. 
Little something called balance, rehab, working around existing injuries, motor unit recruitment, etc. 
Seriously.  This pic has been posted like 99million times and I'm still willing to bet that maybe two people on this entire board could pull this off.  A feat nonetheless if only a few can do it right?

Ony time I used those exercise balls is when some fat bitch was using the roman chair and I wanted to rush my workout so I grabbed a gay ball, procedded to do my set of 50 reps and let out one of those roaring wind farts, the kindthat sounds like you tore your pants, it was priceless. Needless to say when people ask me about exercise balls, I reply to them " I shit on exercise balls"

Squatting on an exercise ball looks dangerous.

Not too good if that's the only squat rack available. There are certain things you can do elsewhere and not take up actual weightlifting space. Bodyweight squatting on an ex. ball is one of them.

i cant help but wonder everytime how the guy got himself positioned on the swissball like that, especially with 135 on his  shoulders...that's a feat in itself.
Oh, and Sean, you've got a point when you're saying he isn't doin that for massive quads, but there are many better& SAFER excercises for balance, rehabilitation and motor unit recruitment than squatting on a swissball...wouldn't you agree?

Peace

I just joined a new gym.  There was a guy and his girlfriend or wife training with one of those rubber balls but it is only half a one with a solid bottom.  They would stand on the flat part and balance themselves while doing some dumbell work.  It was fucking hilarious watching these two.  Every other rep they would fall off or start to teter to one side.  They were doing side laterals and kept fallingoff so the other one would hold them.  It truly was a sight.

I saw this in my gym too. He could slip and fall with the bar knocking someone out or hurting someone really badly. Why do people invent there own exercises? With all of todays modern day free weights and equipment there always seems to be a squid that has to do something stupid.
As for buddy that got banned at Planet Shitness, I saw it on the news yesterday and he has a fleet of lawyers and is suing that fat ass gym manager. He went mainstream public with this and I hope that fat ass gym manager gets what she deserves.

No I am in Toronto.... I guess this is a new fad.  If this ball balancing is for rehab why is it not done at a Physiotherapy place ? if at a gym then it should be done in a back room...

Have you ever tried it? It isn't easy and should be apart of an athletes regular core training, balance is a HUGE part of athletic training and what that dude is doing is a regular part of sports teams strength programs, if this guy wasn't hanging on to the rack an was just balancing of that stability ball that's an awesome feat, I know many hockey players who do the same thing.

BTW, the dude doing squats on the ball is just plain retarded!

Don't knock the exercise if you don't understand the concept Mongo. There's a little more to weight training than maxing out. I love you local, amateur, "bodybuilders". Dime a dozen.
