I've asked before but I will ask again just to be sure.

Planet Fitness in Garner only has Smith Machines for Squats.

Anyone on here have a home gym or know of a place that has barbells for squatting I can use?

I dont want to pay a ridiculous amount for another gym membership...PF has everything I need except leg day.

halp!

12/6/2013 12:02:18 AM

Not bullshit bro. All of that is truth. I felt bad taking the hornets but everyone gotta get their comeuppance if they challenge me to nba jam bro

I signed up at Lifetime fitness on black Friday because they have gyms in both Raleigh and Maryland. Today I go to the one in Columbia, MD and find out that they require a higher priced membership than the one in Cary, and the jump in price is higher than the cost of what I'm currently paying for the strongman gym I'm currently signed up for here in Baltimore.

The lifetime fitness up here does have 5 squat racks and bumper plates for each one, so the only thing I'd be giving up are atlas stones, sleds I never use, and a gym full of hardcore bodybuilders/powerlifters/strongmen.

Only thing that bugs me with LTF in Cary is you can't use chalk and I don't wear gloves

Ive been to several gym that had no chalk rules. none of them ever had an issue when i used this.

12/6/2013 9:48:33 AM

Worked out again. Hit the trifecta thats 3 non missed consecutive workouts. Postponed atlanta one week so I got a chance to hit 7 if I stay dedicated to the game.

Nursing a lower back injury so ive cut deadlifts and squats for now. Having trouble figuring out what to do for abs while those two exercises are on the shelf.

12/6/2013 5:43:42 PM

OK, this is one of my many diet/nutrition pet peeves. People who think they eat super healthy and they instagram shit like this- pseudo healthy fad food trends.

Kelp noodles? GTFO. Almond cheese? Come on...

Over-processed shit to make it pallatable. Just eat normal foods guys.

I like planks and ab roll outs.

Not talking about the kind of planks your mom does, either. Squeeze your glutes and abs as hard as possible for 15 seconds. If you can go longer than 30 or 45 seconds you aren't squeezing hard enough.

12/6/2013 10:59:00 PM

did lunges in the new shows today...bad idea.

Running shoes =/= training shoes.

I'll be sure to remember to use the old reeboks whenever I'm doing leg day...every other day I love these new Adidas though.

Still no luck on finding a squat rack/bar

I love face's posts - they're hilarious and motivating (I too enjoy drinkin' n fuckin' while trying to maintain an acceptable physique).

Killer workout today - 30 min spin + 30 min TRX + 30 min sandbag.

Worked on TRX inverted push ups and rows... my arms are now jello. Also did rotational back lunges and cleans with the sandbag. I love sandbag workouts - they make me feel like such a badass

12/7/2013 2:38:05 PM

It seems like a bit more than drankin'.

And I'm super jelly. I want to watch the sun rise with strippers.

12/7/2013 2:46:12 PM

No...trust me...you never want to see a stripper in the light.

12/7/2013 4:30:08 PM

Had two racks to myself yesterday so I did drop set squats. Great stuff.

12/7/2013 6:37:33 PM

same. did drop set curls

12/7/2013 7:28:39 PM

LOL

12/7/2013 8:39:50 PM

haha I read Mr. Joshua's post like he was continuing the stripper convo

Hey face, how about you take BridgetSPK and me the next time you go out?! I'm a great wingman.

12/7/2013 11:34:40 PM

Are you training to be a sculpture or a bear fighter?

12/8/2013 7:58:58 AM

Yum. Bear fighter. Makes me wanna climb Mount Man. Rawr.

12/8/2013 8:03:42 AM

don't let that description fool you - anyone shaped like the top diagram is plenty strong, unless they're 2 days out from a contest and weak from dehydration.

12/8/2013 11:14:34 AM

^ Don't you compete? Let's say for a local show, what is the average cash prize for Place 1 and 2?

12/9/2013 12:01:18 AM

I don't compete, but I know a bunch of people who do. They don't get paid for winning local shows - I think they have to hold a pro card before they can compete for money. Local shows just award you with a trophy and offers from shady people in attendance to become a stripper/porn star.

Everyone I know that competes does NPC, so some of the other smaller organizations may be different.

It's leg day! Woop Woop.

12/10/2013 10:49:48 AM

thoughts on the jefferson deadlift? there are a couple guys at the gym who do this and it looks very strange.

12/10/2013 10:51:44 AM

I don't understand why people wanna get all fancy. I can see doing a split squat on the Smith or heavy lunges achieving the same thing.

12/10/2013 11:02:37 AM

doing that at maximal weights is begging for injury.

yup, and still keeps you in safe leverage positions as well

12/11/2013 10:59:55 AM

So since i still havent purchased my own squat rack/bar like I plan...

what, if anything, will most resemble a true squat to get my muscles and legs back up to terms with the squat routine.

I have a smith machine at my disposal although apparently everyone hates them with a passion.



I looked into Fitness connection instead of PF where I go now, but everyone says they try and rape you with charges.

12/11/2013 7:28:49 PM

No leg press or hack squat in the gym? Go with either or both of those. Otherwise, smith machine, unfortunately.

This may stir up the Paleo discussion again, not trying to, really. But I think at the end of the day, what people should take away from Paleo is this ( first comment at the end of the article). It's not about eating like a true "caveman", people like to poke fun of the diet with this line.

Got a gym membership for the first time in my life on Monday. (before that when I did go to a gym, it was either at uni, or at residential compounds which had gyms)

Eating a lot more than I was before Monday.

Case in point: I was having a bowel movement just once every 4-5 days, but I have already had 3 in the past 3.5 days

I have been twice, and I haven't seen a single person doing squats, deadlifts, or lunges. Or even legs at all, except for one guy doing leg extensions. Errrrybody workin' away on arms and chest

I am doing free-weight squats every workout (3 times a week). And people look.

12/12/2013 6:59:53 PM

you should post before pics

12/12/2013 7:11:28 PM

Guess who's back in the motherfucking house with a fat dick for your motherfucking mouth

Okay so let's see how I'm doing on my plan. Mice and men and all that. Peep the strategy:

Not that fucking good. I'm working out consistently, i'm eating almost enough but not quite, and i'm not getting nearly enough sleep.

The drinking has been fairly low but the appetite suppressants and lack of sleep offset most of that achievement.

I've gotta find a way, better way, better wait.

Tonight im going to dollar night and im gonna get flat out fucked up. Then im headed to atlanta for a week next week to go slut hunting and boozing. Other than that im focused man tell stout to holla at me man.

I think you may be over working your legs. Now if you are hitting different muscle groups that is fine...but just normal squats...I'd make it every 3 days at the least!

and a poop every 4-5 days? wtf...your body hates you.

12/12/2013 9:22:29 PM

Bulking

12/15/2013 10:50:36 PM

holy crap i woke up at 830 pm today and weighed myself at 164.6 lbs.

So much for bulking i dont think i ate since Thursday ive been partying so much. Okay well im off to atlanta tuesday and im going out tomorrow night with some girl whose divorce is official tomorrow so that will be a late night.

Then christmas and new years and shit. Lets put off the bodybuilding goals until 2014.

oh i borrowed a buddy's shirt last night because my other one was musty from wearing it like 36 straight hours and his girl said my arms looked big in it. hells yeah bodybuild 4 life

^^ LOL. Face is a trip.

Did heavy back squats today and weighted pull-ups. 12-9-6-3 on the rep count on squats and 3 reps each time on the pull-ups. Got to 325 on the 3 rep squat and 70 lbs on the pull-ups. Probably should have gone higher on the final set of squats, but I went a little too high on the earlier sets and felt fatigued. I was happy with the 70 lb weighted pull-up as pull-ups are definitely not my strong area.

12/16/2013 1:44:01 PM

That was completely depleted and when I woke up at 8 pm.

Im 169 right now.

Average is probably like 180 so just imagine losing 10 lbs of fat from there. Im not big just toned and vascular.

Girls always comment on the veins in my forearms and biceps which sets me up for good pickup lines like yeah thwy have to be strong to pump blood all the way to the tip of my dick. It sounds a little crass but the quicker you get girls minds on your wallet and dick the quicker they stop thinking about things like how you are 10 years older than them.

If the girl seems conservative I go with a less crass response like yeah im very vascular. If I stand on the other side of the room you can actually see the veins in my dick.

It still gers the convo headed in the right direction but its not as aggressive or intimidating to girls who get scared off by big dick jokes.
