    Hip adductor/abductor, scales in the gym

    I think I'll soon hit the MAX weight there is...I believe it is 205lb (in my gym)
    Could I do them with one leg instead and then switch?

    And have you ever noticed that the scales in the women's locker room are showing that you weight is less than it is? I checked my weight today, it said 149... but I'm around 160lb

    Wow, that's some heavy weight. Have you tried doing them one leg at a time since you posted this? If you can keep good form by doing them this way then yes, you probably can.

    Report your scale to the mgmt, there is something wrong there. Or is it your home scale that might be off. That's a big difference. As a rule of thumb, one should try to weigh on the same scale due to these differences. Though the gym scale is waaaayyy off.

    I know my precise weight, b/c I was required to weight in every since time during wrestling matches about a week ago, I know for sure I didn't lose/gain those pounds in a weeks time

    it seems like the women scales are always off...especially in the gym

    Sounds like you can't rely on the scale at the club then.

    Personally, I have no other scale to campare to as I only use the scale at the gym. I will weigh in at a bodybuilding show in 12 weeks and I bet I will experience the same thing you did.
