True story is true.

Boring squat deload is boring

No arguing that. Monday will be a little less boring.

I occupy the rack so much these days that guys I don't know but see regularly will tell me they are almost finished as soon as I walk in.

Right away mr Morton.

Yeah, happens a lot to me as well now. The squat rack at my gym is in this little separate section that's almost like a tiny-a$s room without a door. Like the pain felt in the squat rack can't be seen by normal human beings or they will quit coming to the gym.

Same here. When people start asking you "how much are you squatting today?" you know they're paying more attention to what you are doing then what they're workout is.

I just have one squat rack next to the smith machine. I get a kick out when I am squatting and there are skinny dudes on the smith half squatting 225 like they accomplished something. The best was this week I was doing 290lbs and the 3 bros on the Smith were doing what they though was 2 plates and after each set they'd check out their abs after doing 1/4 squats.

I would have no problem with this. I'm starting to get to know too many people at my gym. They always want to chit chat.

Such is life at the Kraut gym.

Thanks for the tip, brah. Good night, sweet knees.

I wants quads of war...

Agreed.

[Jasonk282]

I talk to two people at my gym...and we all lift heavy. Other than that they're just skinny bros.

[MakeGoBoom]

list of things to do to keep people from talking to you in the gym

1. punch any one guy in the face
2. use the hip abduction/adduction machine heavy as faurk w/ molester smile while nodding up and down and pointing at random dude
3. when next dude walks up to you to chat, start doing 10m suicide drills slap him on the arse and tell him not to "pull a hamey"
4. answer ever compliment given w/ the response "nice d*ck bro"
5. anytime someone comes up to you, hold the entire conversation while performing "the macarena"
6. ^^ while wearing tight shorts and doing hip thrusters
7. ^^ pantomime
8. ^^ creepy stripper towel between the legs thing
9. ^^ awkwardly rub your nipples.
10. not sure if you guys do this but the little kid "i got your nose game". adults dont find it so amusing

[ktj4l]

I just ignore people. All that other stuff seems like too much effort. It would take away valuable lifting energy.
