Rogue’s trolling is just tiring right now.
Might just be me, but this guy was using straps for dumbbell flyes.
Seen a dude put his whole mouth around the water foutain faucet
I haven’t witnessed that since first grade.

Yep…I’ve seen a guy do it for DB curls, and another guy taking a helluva long time (about 2 minutes) to wrap his straps around the lat pulldown bar…he was very meticulous about it…so I stopped between sets to see how heavy was going to go…ened up being about 50 or 60 lbs and he did 3 reps. He literally took 10 times as long to put the straps on the bar!

How hard is it to take plates off and put them back where they go? If you are all so big and strong then putting away all your plates should be no problem. Every night the employees have all the plates perfectly put away and by 11am when I go in there is no order to anything.
At my gym no one puts away any plates and the ones who do put them away just throw them wherever (and when I say throw sometimes I mean it literally. Some guy was doing curls in the squat rack next to me while I was doing my shrugging. Apparently the 10# plate was too heavy for him to carry the half step to the stem and he just threw it in the general direction where it proceeded to bounce off the floor into the wall and leave a nice mark)
I find myself constantly doing vulture impersonations trying to figure out if this bench or squat rack is in use because someone left the weight on it.
I really miss my old gym where people had common courtesy. All the weights were put away after people finished what they were working on. All the weights went back together with their matching sized plates. Benches were wiped if someone was sweating excessively. Everyone was friendly and helpful, but still serious about their lifting and respectful of others. Spots were properly given. There were chains and bumper plates and a prowler and a safety squat bar and a yoke bar and round plates (none of this boxy flat sided shit that makes deadlifting a pain in my ass) and dumbbells that went up to 150#. It was heaven and I didn’t even realize what I had until after it was gone.[/quote]
heres a hint, if nobody is on the bench lifting, then nobody is working on the bench. I will wait maybe 30 seconds, just enough time for someone to get a drink of water. If they aren’t back, the bench is mine. You don’t leave a work station and just wander off, then come back expecting that bench to still be yours. no way buddy. finish your sets first, then get some water. not in between. You leave, its mine.[/quote]
Yea man, who the fuck do people think they are drinking water between sets when you’re trying to bench? BETWEEN SETS!?!? Fucking assholes, imagine how many more things you could have posted on T-Nation if some dick didn’t need to drink between sets.[/quote]
Whatever happened to bringing your own bottle of water? And like I said, I wait enough time, in case someone did go get a drink. But others may want to use that equipment. Why can’t someone get water after they are done with that equipment. If they are doing more than 3 sets, they are doing to many and don’t know what they are doing.

Hahaha! Awesome!
But you and I would be fighting over that bench, RV – well, after I had returned from sipping water at the fountain. You know, I do take my time sipping the water. Like a cat. slurp, slurp
Especially since it’s quite refreshing. Mmm… better than mid-workout shake…
[/quote]
My opinion is that people should be bringing their own water bottle with them. if they don’t and leave where they are working out, you can’t expect that piece of equipment to still be available… If nobody is there, its not in use. simple. If you don’t want someone else to take it, don’t leave. simple.

Exactly how am i trolling. You think if someone leaves where they are working out, you expect people to just sit and wait forever for someone to come back. Eventually, someone will take that equipment. I love how people say I’m trolling. funny. I guarantee, if it was someone else saying what i’m saying, people would be agreeing with me.

lol. Volume can work, on occasion. But I have found, it burns you out rather fast. It has always been the case. When I was 17, same thing. Age is nothing but a number that exists within our own mind.

No, no it burns YOU out fast. Volume is probably one of the best ways of getting strong (dont know about getting big). Anyway 3 sets is not volume, its probably minimum sets for most people.

Let me clarify. no than 3 worksets on any given exercise. Thats not counting warmup sets. I think its been pretty much proven, that few sets done to high intensity is better for growth than simply doing set after set after set. remember, whos more jacked, a marathon runner or a sprinter. hmmmmmmm?

It’s not BB, but would about those Westside guys? The volume on some of the assistance is crazy. I think they have an idea of what their doing.
LOL @ all these RV rules
- No women in the gym. This…is…MANLAND!
- If you can’t warm up with 135, GTFO.
-
30 seconds away from equipment renders it up for grabs.
- No trips to the water fountain between sets.
-
3 sets is useless
Maybe if I start implementing these rules, I too could wear a size 60 jacket and be 285 at 5’8" while living off of perfect protein shakes with perfect nutrient breakdowns because I’m a vegetarian but not really because I still eat meat sometimes even though animals are equal to humans and then women will worship the shit that I emit from my ass and men will be in awe of the dust that I pulverize with each step because age is a figment of my imagination but the hard-on that I have for a 400 year old woman is oh so real and I am unable to take a picture of myself because I’m too busy editing my literary masterpiece.
^ That doesn’t sound like troll to you?
