    My Sincere Apologies...

    I used to do curls at the squat rack. I didn't think it was a huge deal, as long as nobody was hovering.
    Last month, I torqued my shoulder and have basically only been able to focus on legs while I'm rehabbing. Only now do I see how obnoxious it is to show up on squat day only to find some dude curling at the squat rack.
    My b.

    Now everybody have you heard
    If you're in the game, then the stroke's the word
    Don't take no rhythm, don't take no style
    Got a thirst for killin', grab your vile...

    You put your right hand out give a firm hand-shake
    Talk to me about that one big break...
    Spread your ear-pollution both far and wide...
    Keep your contributions by your side and stroke me,
    stroke me
    Could be a winner boy, you move quite well...
    You got your number down...
    Say you're a winner but man you're just a sinner now

    You put your left foot out keep it all in place...
    Work your way right into my case
    First you try to bed me you make my backbone slide
    But when you found you bled me-- skip on by...
    keep on---stroke me, stroke me
    Give me the business all night long...
    You're so together boy...
    Say you're a winner but man you're just a sinner now

    Better listen now (said) it ain't no joke
    Let your conscience fail ya, just do the stroke
    Don'tcha take no chances keep your eye on top
    Do your fancy dances you can't stop you just stroke me,
    stroke me

    lol it happens A LOT. That's why I prefer pulling a loose barbell out and putting weights on it somewhere in front of a mirror or out of the way.

    It's all good. To be honest though, I would ask them nicely to move aside or move over to the dumbbell area and if they do not want to cooperate then that's when I would get mad.

    You're using a squat rack to curl bro! But seriously though, there really isn't a need to curl at the squat rack. You would still get a hell of a good workout even without have to curl at the squat rack...

    Who cares. Do what you want unless someone asks to use it for squats.
    Bodybuilding is 60% training and 50% diet. Yes that adds up to 110%, because that's what you should be giving it. Change the inside, and the physique will follow.

    IMO, having short sets still doesn't make it acceptable. There are fixed barbells readily available.

    Does it really hinder you that much? Why not just ask the individual how many sets they have left.

    Not once in MANY years of lifting have I become worked up over folks curling in the squat rack.

    You mean the guy wearing the "Godzilla" shirt, curling 155? I don't think he'd appreciate me breaking his concentration.

    A gym I go to has an area with 3 dual cable pulley systems (i.e., dual = ability to do cable crossovers). 2 of which also have chinup/pullup bars, the other against a wall with a long mirror. Triangular setup /__\.

    The other day some guy came over and brought about 4 of the fixed EZ bars over from the DB/fixed bar section, 2 benches, and basically commandeered the entire area. Took up the one against the wall to look at himself while curling (didn't use the cable harnesses at all), another to do chinups, and the other to hang some Olympic rings from. Inside I laughed. I'm usually a live and let live kinda guy, but this was just too much. If I wasn't there to do chest, I would have been a little ticked.

    I rather someone do curls in the squat rack if they need their own personal vanity mirror than that. At least that only effects one person at a time.

    The thing is that, if these guys were to curl 135lbs with the BB at the squat rack, then I wouldn't mind. However, the guys at my gym are putting 2 10s on each side of the barbell and they never add anymore weights after that!

    You're only curling 85lbs! Use the barbell that already has the set amount of weights on it!

    No offense. It's just unnecessary to take your time to curl the 45lbs barbell when the other one is there available and easy for you to curl also!

    Sadly at my gym if you wanted to do barbell curls you are stuck with either using the bench presses or squat racks. Only EZ curl bars there. Stupid as hell really.

    I've never been bothered about people curling in the squat rack. I ask them if they can move aside as I want to use it for squats and they always do. It's the ones that use it for shrugs and shoulder press that bug me. They never move aside.
    Love to train.... hate gyms!

    I'm going to be honest with you. I actually hate it when someone is squatting in the squat rack. Some of these guys can be in it for a good 30 minutes.

    I curl, shrug, row, SOHP, squat, rack pull and RDL in the rack.

    I don't give a flying fck if this bothers you or any other faux-hardcore people in this thread.

    If you ask me nicely, and there's somewhere else I can go, I'll consider moving. If you try to act tough (which you wouldn't, because no one ever has in real life), I'll poop on your chest.
    Who was this love of yours?

    Curling in the rack/cage isn't a big deal. Most gyms don't have weighted barbells for 135 and above.

    Nothing wrong with doing any exercise you choose in the rack. If I think "Your curls are stupid, get out of my squat rack" whats to stop them from thinking "your squats are stupid, get out of my curl rack"

    I betcha people would rather have me doing curls in the squat rack than squats in the squat rack. On my squat days, I camp out; 30 minutes minimum. Curls, I do 3 sets over like 5-7 minutes and I'm out.

    I ALWAYS do BB curls in the squat rack. In fact I do my tricep work in there, my bench presses in there, my deadlifts in there.......

    Ah, the joys of having a full cage in the garage. Bliss!!!

    Once I had to wait for 25 minutes.. 3-4 kids curlin... two of them fairly seriously... wrist straps and all.

    I wasn't happy to say the least.



    edit: I remember I took a photo, I was that annoyed (mostly because I have to run against the clock... as the gym closes)
