"No cage? What the hell. "
An old friend once said:
“Like it or not,
Like what you got.”
I also bench, MP sometimes upright row, and shrug in the smith…
3 smiths.
8 benches (4 adjustable)
1 decline bench
2 benching benches (one is incline) Nice Olympic collar bars (didn’t seem to flex, with 460 on it)…
1 45 degree leg press.
More plates then I can lift.
I think I can only get 6 45’s on a side though in the smiths, but that will be awhile…
2 nice 4 sided cable towers.
Bunches of machines (some quite nice, all utilitarian stuff) and Cardio stuff…
2 sets Db’s up to 70 increment by 5.
They don’t like you dropping or setting the weights down hard.
Just me, but I figure setting it down controlled is part of the form.
$20 a month, can lift at lunch, and bring my boy from time to time…
All in all I’m happy.
Uh, Found this I think off of Soldog’s log…
Gotta agree it’s different exercise, I figure a %20 penalty and will start at less then 1/2 when I do go free… Cause I feel imbalances and stabilizer injuries are likely…
I do some free weights, mostly at home…
Got PowerBlocks (to 130) and Ironmaster incline/decline bench at home. Never heavy always volume. I don’t have anything to protect the floors and find lift off a bitch. Also my shoulders dislocate easily, so failure is NOT an option.
