A guy benching but only touching one pec/side at the bottom he was so off balance.
It looked insanely awkward

Was last night, almost popped a vessle.
Walk in to do legs and sure enough there is 3 17yo anorexics doing biceps curls in the squat rack, the other rack was being used by a guy doing DLs, fair enough. There is a selection of straight bars and EZ bars already set up in in racks and 4 machines, 2 pin loaded and 2 c/weight curl machs. Not to mention bars and weights of various sizes to choose from that can be set up anywhere and a wall full of dumbbells to train arms with, but no it had to be done in the squat rack, with a 10kg plate on each end. Must be some new age training technique, us old school grunters wouldn't understand.
So I wait, finally finish my sets and move to the hack squat press to blow up the quads a bit and the anorexics beat me to it by about 10 seconds, to do calves, reversed, front resting on the back pad and moving 1" up and down. Not happy again.
We have 4 available machines for that, 2 sitting and 2 standing all hitting from slightly different angles, but no it had to be the hack squat machine. Must have been something wrong with the other 4 calf machines or they are so far advanced in the science of muscle training that mainstream excercises are just too outdated for them.
To top it of, they stood around the press talking and lifting the legs of their weird Alibaba tracksuit pants to check the instant growth progress of their new age, cutting edge exercise. Did a set every 4-6 minutes.
I am all for young new commers joining this "sport", we were all in thier shoes at some point, but why do they insist on ignoring equpment specific for what they are training and using equipment that is designed entirely for another excercise? My gym offers free program and training plans with an instructor for all new mwmbers, so they can get familiar and ask about anything they are not sure about. But these guys are already a step ahead of the majority of the gym population and onto "revolutionary" techniques.
And what happened to gym etiquette?
Well, thats my bitch for the day, phew, feel better now!

lol what was your max?
@GRUNTA Your to nice mate, i would have "politely" told them to fuck off out of the rack so I could actually utilize it for what it was intended for, OR walk over to the rack and throw your gym bag and towel etc. on the ground and tell them your going to work in with them and start setting the rack up for squats... have done this on several occasions if im forced to train in a commercial gym, their reactions are usually quite amusing.
Training in the on base gym at 0430 in the morning leaves me pretty much exactly like Bradders

Went this morning and looks like three year 12 students were there too, all talking, i had me headphones on.. i just load up the bar and get to work, one of them does one set while i do 3, then i start on some rows, another one does one set on a machine, i finish my rows and get on the bench and press 70 kilos or so, the third one tries out the cable machine about 10 tries...
I am like '... was i ever that green?' on the way to work i lol'd
Then i saw this chick in yoga pants and some more lycra for her top walking her dog.. she was fkn fine. no where to stop on the road to kidnap her though

Pretty sure we were all that green, but hopefully without the stupid looking Alibaba track suit pants.
