Well that's my story.

I almost passed out doing front squats today. Apparently all it takes is a couple seconds of the bar on your carotid to put you down. That was fun.

How are you managing to compress both your carotids at the same time on a front squat without crushing your trachea flat?

What am I, a doctor?

I unracked the bar a little tight on my neck but it wasn't too uncomfortable, so I tried going with it. Oops. It was at the end of my session and I thought maybe I didn't eat enough, but I recovered quickly. I was mostly just working on form, which surprisingly is complete poo poo, so I luckily wasn't going too heavy. It's apparently not the most uncommon thing. You can find a bunch of videos on yt of dudes passing out.

True, I just recently managed to get back up to my 180kg deadlift after my back injury and just thinking of frontsquatting my deadlift is humbling.

My Y would be full of people like that during peak hours. I avoid them by going at rear end o'clock in the morning (0530), where it's me, the other go-getters and the elderly. Glad my schedule allows this, a busy gym is no fun.

Turns out Alan Aragon is a sex pest, he gets drunk and either makes unwanted advances on women or there's full out sexual assault. Up to 7 accusers now.

I've heard that he gets really out of control at the fitness summit in KC every year, but drat.
