I don't take my phone into the gym because I'm simultaneously afraid of dropping weights on it and i don't like it when people pay more attention to their phone than their lifts. So basically, I'm going to lift wrong forever and kill myself that way.

I love getting judgy looks when I'm on my phone between sets. Yes, I'm taking 2-3 minutes of rest between sets, yes, I'm browsing the internet while I rest, I don't see why that's such an issue. Half the time I'm on my phone between sets I'm looking at form videos/instructions on the lift I'm currently doing anyway.

Lifting for the first time after ~10 weeks off. How bad am I going to feel? Tomorrow will be leg day so I'm going to assume I will be wishing I were dead by Wednesday.

Enjoy being mocked for sitting/standing/walking/climbing stairs like a 90-year-old. This will last for 3 or 4 days after your leg day. Enjoy!

Khorne posted:Lean your phone against a towel. You can put your phone in insane positions where it would never stand up without a towel. It lets you angle your phone at crazy angles, too. Test it on the floor near a wall or standing object, try it on the rack of those fixie minibarbell things that are like dumbbells, put it on a machine of some kind or the safeties of a squat rack or the dumbbell rack. The possibilities are endless once you start employing a towel as a stabilizer for your phone. i don't have a gym towel and im running PLP with weak numbers so nothing 2 film

The worst part is I was in a frat and lived for 2 years with a nationally-ranked bodybuilder who would have been more than happy to coach me into a shredded monster but he died a couple of years ago

Grump posted:That is the craziest poo poo I've ever heard. I might have gotten one of these numbers wrong, but that's the gist of it. It replaced a few legitimate gyms near me. The owners of the local ones had no lunk stuff and kept power racks and bench setups. Corporate forced them to get rid of that stuff within the past few years. Now it's a wasteland of the exact type of people you'd expect. And a few people who are making it work due to the cheap cost.

Pizza on the first Monday of the month, bagels on the second Tuesday. So if the month starts on a Tuesday BOOM the following Monday night you get pizza and bagels the next morning.

I like that the gym specifically designed against people doing heavy lifting provides free food that would be most appropriate for people doing heavy lifting

Ended up making out at 8 reps of 205 for bench. I guess that's not too bad for not lifting a drat things since July. Not looking forward to leg day tomorrow.

Noice. I'd kill to bench 205. I failed a set yesterday at 120  Failed my 5th squat set after 2 reps at 115lb. I don't think it's my back because it doesn't feel like I tweaked it at all or anything, but I have a hard time believing it's my legs, because I also hit 2x5 @ 215 deadlifting today which is by far a PR for me  VVVV I'm doing Stronglifts so I squat 3x a week and DL either 2x or 1x depending on if it's an ABA or BAB week.

Do you do all your legs on the same day? I like splitting them up with something like 5/3/1.

Have you seen that Planet Fitness ad, where the big dumb goon says "I lift things up and put them down," over and over, like a big dumb goon? Ha, what a big dumb goon, right? What a mindless, repetitive, boring, lifestyle he has. He just lifts things up and puts them down. What an uncreative, inside-the box workout program he has, that big dumb goon. Just lifting, and putting down. Over and over again.

my office building just opened a decent gym for tenants and it's actually pretty dope being able to lift during the day. i know what I'll be doing for lunch every day now for the last few years I've only lifted in my garage so i have to remember what lifting around other humans is like. i forgot about the animal impulse to lift heavy to show dominance over others who may be watching. plus the added fear of publicly failing a lift is good for an adrenaline boost
