My gym has been open for a while now - 1.5 hour slots. Seems to be working ok, just means you have to make a rush for the squat rack as there's only one which is a pia. Squats as the last leg...

Now this may have been discussed...but the lenght of the thread means I go reading it all.

But... how many of you have lost significant weight due to not being able to workout as you would have...

After dropping down to 148lbs (10st 8), Im now at 161lbs (11st 7) and would like to see 168lbs (12 stone) by summer.

Now that's a thread reserection! Nice pics though.

Someone else also gets the cracking, popping - any grinding? I can't do press ups anymore as all I feel is this grinding sensation in my elbow joint.

I must be really popular then.

I always eat before. Eat at 4.30pm, finish work at 5.30pm, on the gym floor at 6.40pm, home by 8.30 and consume dinner.

Got over that ages ago, although it does make me look about the gym and wonder how much of peoples size is down to frame / genetics / workout effort.

But black is the slimming colour... Perhaps a...

Feeling slightly empowered, although the thought of directly lying on a bench after somone else has used it, skin in contact with faux leather soaked in sweat doesn't really appeal. Maybe for cardio...

THe only thing I can come up with is that its a cold day, its leg day too, so you want to squat whilst keeping nice and warm. You then have a light bulb moment - I'll borrow my gfs leggings....

Ok so that doesn't seem too bad if not the 'designer' work out gear.

Now I'm wondering if I need to take a look at the 'sports' t-shirts. Am I missing out? One things for sure, you will never see...

Ok is this normal?

Two work out shorts, various workout out T and polo shirts which are just old ones I dont wear out anymore, and one pair of trainers.

Swimming - wet suit, rash vest, hat,...

Sweaty hands maybe? I was stuck on 60kg deadlift for a while, the first few reps were fine, then the bar would start to move in my hands, and before you know it, I'd have to set the bar down, wipe...

Interesting responses ITT. Just thought I would add - the smith in my gym is labelled as 16kg without any weight. If you take that and the lack of free movement, if you're not aware, you could be in...

Try being made redundant, twice, that really doesn't do you any favours. But then again, being able to afford to go on holiday and do more things does improve the mood!

Was expecting blue vs red. But Left. Right looks like your on the pull.

Ideally 4wd with winter / snow tires. One or the other - snow or winter tires.

Getting a PB on day (squats - YES), and then doing crap the following workout (deadlift). Whats going on?

Had to take a look after that comment - can confirm, the cats dead, well lost one if lives, and you don't look like you're in your 40s!
