Yeah I realized they were for resistance...but even if it added 50 lbs to the squat..whats the point of squatting 300 onto a chair..and having two guys guide and help you back up...why not just squat the 300...

SO a couple AF'ers were cdoing bench today (of course, I mean it is Monday). Anyway, "bigger" guy puts 225 on and lays down. He does about 6 half reps - at least 6" off his chest - at least i tell ya. I then hear him telling an old man working the bench next to him "you could do the same w/ a lot of hardcore training". I couldn't resist.............
I went right over and asked him why he was training a 3 board press. He looked at me confused and asked wht that was. I explained it was a bench press that went NOWHERE near the bottom and was used to train weaker points in a lift. He said that touching the bar to your chest is cheating and I asked him to try his next set like I was doing mine - 2 sec pause at the bottom resting on chest - needless to say he couldn't do one - it was fun. BTW - the old man he was "coaching" was right there and he was pleased w/ the show - nice.

wtf.... so he just picked it up, thats it?.... lolninesecz said:
just like these assclown h.s. kids watching me do incline dumbells... they see me getting 5-6 reps per set with the 65's... (after flat barbell presses)... and they have to out lift me
...they start with 65's and dont even go down far enough to make their arms parallell... let alone all the way down... they ended up using 85's with a spotter on each arm struggling to not let him drop the shit on himself...then they glance over at me and try and look all tough...

there was this time when i was doing some seated cable rows to warm up for bent over BB rows. i can't remember how many plates i was doing, but this skinny kid sits down after i'm done, he puts all the plates and starts to "row". basically he was moving his back more than his arms - more like a seated SLDL. then he jumps off with the "i pwn you" expression all over his facetheprofessor said:wtf.... so he just picked it up, thats it?.... lol

I am so glad school has started back up. The gym is finally getting back to normal until Dec/Jan sign ups start popping in.
The guy I am glad has left the gym is the skinny white kid with the ball cap sideways as to show how "urban" he is. Well, this kid has always given me a chuckle when he shows up. He is one of the typical upper body only workouts since I can't say I have ever seen him do a single lower body movement except for a walk around the gym. So skinny white kid after every single set seems to find it important to not only flex the muscle group he is working, but to also feel the muscle as if he's checking to see if the arm, shoulder or pec has grown since the last set. I have to check this out by watching from different mirrors as I think he is onto me, since he did catch me cracking up at him a few times.
The best exercise he does has to be on shoulder day, he does this form of front raises where he picks up a db and raises his arm, when he reaches parallel to the floor, releases the weight, then quickly catches the db after gravity has dropped it about 6 inches from the release point. It's got to be something he has created on his own, but he sure enjoys it since he does it every other day. And yes, after every set, up goes the sleeve and the non-existant caps are flexed and massaged. One of these days I have to walk over and ask him what that exercise is doing other than bringing a smile to my face evertime I see him, lol.

not considering this to be something a "moron" would do but i never understood the exercise where guys do seated barbell overhead press for shoulders but load the weight up real high and only bring it to the top of their skull then back up again. why not just lower the weight and do full range of motion?
