This is really well done. Everyone needs to watch it.

I love this.

Note to self for future reference:

If the gym is crowded and you see the squat rack open up, even for just a moment

run for it.

So there were some children in the gym tonight

Thinking they were hot shit with their Beats by Dr. Dre and hogging the same bench for +30 minutes at a time and their prepubescent mustaches and their boyish frames.  I also had the misfortune of eavesdropping on one of their conversations while two of them were “curling” next to me.

“Do we have any homework?”

“Just that religion project for Ms. Such-and-such”

“What do you think you’re gonna do for it?”

“I don’t know man, I’m just ready for this year to be over.  Did you hear back from any colleges yet?”

And then it dawned on me.  These weren’t children.

They were high school seniors.

This is why we can’t have nice things.

Squatted 185 today

Still nowhere close to the 235 I was hitting last summer, but I’m getting there. I probably could’ve gone for more if I’d eaten a bigger breakfast. It didn’t feel like a newfound strength though, it felt more like it’s still there and I just have to reawaken it.

I only deadlifted 165 tonight…

I joined a new gym near my house

I was looking forward to start working out again tonight, but i just got back and Jesus Christ, that was terrible. That was the most crowded gym I’ve ever seen in my life, and that’s saying something. The weights were all rubber coated (I prefer exposed metal) and had five handholds arranged pentagonally, so holding them were really awkward. I also got asked “how many more sets do you have?” Like 5 times in 30 minutes. I don’t know if it was just because its a Monday night or what. I’ll give it one more shot.

How to pick up a girl at the gym

But the user reviews on Google are less than favorable, to put it lightly:

I’d rather be fat. This gym is the worst. They’re basically getting monthly donations from me since they refuse to cancel my membership. I wouldn’t want to cancel if it wasn’t for the fact that their parking lot is absolutely horrid, their staff is rude young miserable kids at the front desk, and half their machines weren’t broken. What’s the point of a $35 a year extra service fee every January if you can’t even fix a treadmill in a reasonable time frame. 3 months 4 of them have been broken..”


this place is a nightmare and the staff is so rude. the equipment is nice but god help you if you ever try to cancel a membership. they take forever, they make it so difficult and expensive to cancel a membership. they were so not helpful and rude. they didnt even know or understand their own policies.”


RUN FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. I advise anyone even considering to join this gym to do some research online. There are tons of complaints against this company and they even have any F rating by the BBB. I have had to consult a lawyer in order to deal with them. I joined and I regret it. Nothing but a hassle.”

Goddamn it…


Old man died at my gym today
Thought he was asleep. Paramedics came and kicked everyone out and took him away in a bag. Thought he was just sleeping in pic
