That sounds like a new CrossFit routine.

that is gold!
 
Fark... I struggle to balance enough to do normal pistol squats imagine doing it on a plate... thats insane balance!
 
FF Park st. A PT had a guy doing smith machine squats with his feet on two of those squishy medicine balls out in front of him.

Predictably, his feet flew forward and he landed on his back with the bar crashing down. Would have given his head a knock I imagine.

Adding them to my program.

I wouldnt have been able to stop myself from pulling the PT up about that and embarrassing him in front of his client.
That shit is straight against the clients best interests. IE training them safely.

Saw a new chick turn up doing the crossfit session at lunch time, was pleased they did a lot of skipping rope, could have watched it all day....
 
Old lady with guidance from a PT gets on the assisted dip machine. Old lady gets her knees on the pad but the counter weight is not heavy enough and she doesn't take up any of the slack in her arms and crashes straight to the floor. Appeared to shock her abit but to her credit she got back up and gave it another go...
 
saw these school kids doing bicep curls with the fixed barbells. It was obviously too heavy as they were heaving it up with their lower back and shoulders. After that, he does the bodybuilding pose, the side bicep/chest shot, where the hands clutch each other but shows the one bicep side on with the side chest view. It was terrible.

Where?

Same thing, I saw last night.
 
lol, it wasn't last night, it was on Tuesday night. I'm in Sydney but like WarbyD said, happens at every gym at that time which is why I am trying to have my own setup so I don't have to deal with those people.
 
I just watched 3 dudes trying to box squat....a shame they seemed to have no idea what that is other than having a box in the same vicinity as you. I guess on the plus side they were very nearly making parallel.
 
what annoys me the most is that it seems the gyms are a place to hang out now. I used to go at 4.30 am which was great, did it for a year consistently and had to take time off for injuries so now I find it really hard to wake up at that time so I go around 5 pm and its just packed with people standing around having a chat. Also no gym etiquette which is really disappointing. Anyway thats my 5 minutes on the soap box lol.
