I didn't think etiquette required a sign. Could you imagine if you had to have a sign for everything? I imagine signs are for the things that plague a gym like not putting weights away and not throwing them ect. by the lazy retards that think they pay their dues so it gives them the right....

Agreed. This place cracks me up sometimes with all the tough guy talk. It is hilarious? A lot of bad asses around these parts

I did! About a month ago. It must have gotten lost in one of the "upgrades"; I figured I just wasn't up to snuff. But I'll try again. It's not the first time a request has gone astray.

In that case, you were probably pretty mild in your response. I'm not sure I'd be even half-civilized on that kind of diet. But I'm hoping to start cutting by the end of March, so I may find out. I just returned from Kaffee und Kuchen with some family friends - I think I got this year's budget of refined sugar.

Agreed. But common sense isn't necessarily that common....

15 years ago when i was working out last, my gym was hard core. Massive lifters - where you'd see 7-8 plates squats on a daily basis. We had a room set aside for deads and legs. Had a nice dead lift platform, and 3 power racks.
Way over on the other side of the gym, near the shoulders and chest section, was a squat rack.
No one ever used it for squatting - so me and the guys used it for curls.
/meh
In my current gym, no one squats. Well, they squat in the smith, but that's it. I think I'm the only one I've ever seen squatting there. It's a small gym, and in the afternoon when i train, there's maybe 3 ppl there.
So I curl in the rack.
-waiting for a barrage of red. lol
It's all in your mind.

EVERY GYM I've been to has squat rack curlers.....except maybe Gold's Venice.
About 8 months ago I begged my gym to get a proper decline bench setup. Was promised one for ever but it never showed and I gave up (did'em in the smith with a raggedy decline bench). Two weeks ago I got sick and was out for a week (was okay because it was a deload week for me anyways). Showed up on Monday morning to find a brand spankin' new shiny decline bench in all its glory. I felt like Clark Griswold staring at his new pool.
Went about my normal workout, all the time Mirin' the new bench and gleaming oly bar. Finished up a set of something or another, turned and what did I find?
I think it's all a symptom of laziness. Someone passes by the first bar they see, and instead of thinking about what that particular bar is for they just proceed to do their curls.
