Gym owners should not let these people back into the gym (older footage)

The funniest thing i saw was a guy who loaded a smith machine to the max & waited untill he was being noticed, proceeded into a Squat & got about 5 inches..
His face was like fuck, he then straightened up & pretended he was doing calf raises (which he couldn't do either)
He actually got kicked out of the Gym for stalking one of the Reception Girls  ;D

Afterwards, he probably told people that he decided to cancel his membership because the employees were conceited and unapproachable.

was a big guy but overweight & he was strong on weight stack machines but avoided all free weights. The smith Machine is a type of machine but this is the only time i saw him use it ( try to )
I worked in the Gym & so i can confirm that we were OK to him until he started stalking

I'm impressed with the extreme flexibility of some of these people.

Didn't watch the whole vid but it's peak retard/lazy to lift in a rack and not use the safeties that are there for a reason.

in a Gym yes but even with a pair of basic squat stands you can squat above a flat bench so you can sit down & rest a moment if you canīt make the rep
try one legged squats off a flat bench works too..not for pussy boys  ;D
some people in the Gym are just looking for attention, donīt understand the risks

Squatting with a bench between legs is too dangerous, if you can't make it and have to ditch you probably ruined the bar as well :D Ever since I started lifting regularly at 14-15 I made elaborate safety mechanisms LOL, when squatting I put a bench on both sides and then a plate or two on top so it was the exact bottom height minus an inch. On diagonal leg presses I put weights or some type of box on one side so the weights on the machine would hit them at the bottom.

Even at 15 I had spotters, I was very safety conscious. Remembered I had this pic in a photo album. 440lbs lock-outs over the stands. Spotters look prepubertal LOL. Some time after this pic tiny Indian kid in the back took 10 single 5mg Russian Dianabol tablets and benched 200lbs! LOLOL

I hope you stored your mops and buckets away safely.
