*.* NEW- 2014 General Fitness Thread *.*
I guess we filled up the old one... http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=280149
Welcome to 2014! Now get your ass in top physical condition! No one else started it so here it is! **From the 2013 Thread** If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs If you have questions about the SS programs, look here: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started. Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE: http://madcow.hostzi.com/5x5_Program/Linear_5x5.htm If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point. |

What if that person's weights are way more or less than your own?

Get stronger so you don't have to un-rack all their weight.

I generally don't talk to people at the gym. I have my headphones on and the look of business upon my face.
I think one of the trainers said hello to me once, just to make sure I wasn't a serial killer.

Seriously, if you want to work in with them and it is a machine just make sure you put the pin back at the weight they had it at. If free weights un-rack and re-rack what they had on.

I was taking really long breaks in between sets as I usually do. But, I don't have a problem speeding up the process if someone asks politely how many more sets I have left or if I'm almost done. This guy, who looked pretty young so I'll give him a pass, clearly has yet to learn proper gym etiquette. Funny thing is, he ended up jumping on the rack right next to mine about a minute later. Him and his buddy were squatting 100 pounds. 100 pounds. |

What about the fact my gym only has one squat rack and my workout consists of multiple work sets of squats, Ghetto GHRs, Good mornings and RDLs. I spend almost an hour using that squat rack on a given leg day but given the fact the rest of the douches mostly curl in it, I couldn't give one **** if I take my time.

I'd guess about 5'11" 170 and his friend was a little bigger. I mean, it's not like they were struggling with 100 pounds or anything, but I had a good laugh at the fact that he was rushing me in mine so he could get in two sets of 8 reps at 100 pounds. Then they left without re-racking their weights.. |
