I think every Gym has an old bafoon know it all / done it all. Ours is called Bernie. If you totally ignore him (I mean pretend to not even see or hear him) he will go coach some other poor soul.

just outta interest... is he bald?
 
ipod and headphones is truly the way to go.

I have been working out off and on for almost 12 years.

I just recently bought an ipod nano and downlaoded about 50 songs for it and will download an additional 25-50 this weekend. My first workout with it was fantastic. I was seriously impressed by how much better my focus was and not hearing other people bullshit chat.

hard work+ipod=kickass lifting.

kickass lifting fo sheezy
 
Damnit Kab, now I'm thinking the 45's at my gym vary. I used the different colored 45's at my gym because I didn't want to walk the 15 feet for the ones I usually use for my squats and my squats were so easy today that it was pathetic.

I mean, I was holding the arch all the way down and keeping my shoulders pulled back all the way down and focusing on it, a new change in my form, but now I'm thinking that too. I'm thinking next week a 10 pound jump in squats though is fitting.

Yea, mp3 player + lifting = awesomeness. They used to play Car Wash and that Boy George Chameleon song type things all the time in my gym till they got Siruis, my mp3 player helped me get through those rough, horrible, should have charged them for crimes against humanity times.
 
Was he wearing Zubazz pants??

Seriously, ALL commercial gyms have fucked up plates. 49lbs may be a slight stretch, lol, but most are 44-48.....don't sweat it. So, it's not a lifter's gym with Eleiko equipment, but guys have certainly gotten big and strong using the cheap, fucked up plates at the commercial gym.....even gyms and weightrooms I have been to with good bumpers don't have enough of them for everyone to bench and squat with at all times, they're expensive, so they have the shitty plates for the static lifts, lots of people got plenty big and strong with assed up plates....York, Ivanko, and ''good' commercial brands are usually a little fucked up and not totally accurate.....just don't think about it and you'll be fine, lol.

If you're anal, you could probably weigh 10 of them and mark them somehow so you know, but if they're ever unavailable, you'll have a stroke and get a shitty workout for no good reason, so I wouldn't recommend that.
 
I used to use an I-pod all the time, I just think the cord gets annoying and I really like just enjoying the sights, sounds, feel of lifting. I passed on the story cuz the guy was so outrageous I thought it was kinda funny...

More importantly as for the plate thing, T, you are right it is not worth getting paranoid over... Goose don't follow in my footsteps thinking about it.

The plates in my gym are definitely all the same brand... so I am sure there is some consistency, whatever the weight is. Seems like if you manufacture a 45 pound olympic bar... you should be able to consistently produce a 45 pound olympic bar though, etc.. that's your company's job. Damn cheap manufacturing methods.
