i dont see how weights could fall off the bar when benching unless you a complete uncoordinated idiot. lol

and why would you use collars?? (unless you have a spot, then they are ok)

For unco people and in case you lose a lift due to injury. If you screwed up and a plate dropped on my foot I would smack you over the head with it. It's rare but it does happen. And no I don't use collars in my home gym just at work.

It's different when you have a spot to when you don't as well.

yeah, if im alone i never use collars for bench, so if i get stuck i can tilt the bar so the weight falls off so i dont get pinned. but when im with minh or have a spot ill use them coz i wont get pinned.

I don't think the racks at Spartan's get too much use.
The DBs and EZ curl bar in front of the mirrors on the other hand . . .

How many racks do they have there now?

I used to go there about 6 years ago, from memory, he had four?

When I was there, the racks were used quit often, by a group of power litters, nice blokes.
 
In the small peoples section, last time I went in, there was a full cage and a half cage.
In the big peoples section there is 2 or 3 . . . Marduk trains there ask him :p

*edit* he beat me to it.

Marduk, Andy's little warehouse gym is actually around the corner from Spartan's on Colchester(?) road
 
Well, in a factory off mountain highway.

@5pm there were 4 or 5 big bastards there that would hog the racks, all wrapped up in their jump suits.

One rep every five minutes.

Andy, do you train clients or is it just a personal gym?

I bought this equipment for my own use.

There are four boys now using the machines, I let them use for free.
I knock people back as I haven't the time, it's frustrating.

The results of these workouts are literally outstanding.
 
I'll give a rough run down

Today we did goblet squats and nautilus circuits, yesterday we did goblet squats and nautlius circuits, tomorrow we will do goblet squats and nautilus circuits :p
