New Years beginner shit

Are you gonna say that or just think it really hard haha

Idk, did you ask him? But I'm guessing it's because people like you let them.

>tfw I do this for my working sets

How many 10 lb plates is too much? 3 on each side?

lmao no you won't

because i can and nobody will say a fucking thing
also good for drop sets

Nah I didn’t ask him, didn’t wanna catch his autism and become a mathlet myself

If he's training with those two other guys it could be so they can quickly change the weight in small increments between their sets. Still a bit retarded though.

How do you guys load any weight ending with 8 or 4 (in kg but I'm sure plates in pounds have equivalent problem)? For example 58, or 104. The most optimal way to get that is to load 2 2kg plates on each side. Why isn't eleiko making 4kg plates?

Why would YOU need 10s, are you a fucking weakfag?

My gym only has 25/20/15/10/5/2.5/1.25 kg pl8s, progressing on OHP is a pain in the ass. Oh there are also oly barbell locks which somehow are 5lbs each (2.27 kg) and they cause a complete metrological chaos that triggers my OCD.

Because they’re weak and or niggers
Alternatively it’s a power move to annoy everyone in the gym

Wait how do you get the plates on/off

I can forgive using three sets of tens if you're going to be quick. I see that a lot with overhead press.

Dumbest thing I've ever seen though was someone who strung up five of them on a belt and proceeded to use pull up machine with more than 50 lb counterbalance.

>Why the fuck do people do this shit
Because this way you can both work up to your training 1RM and do a giant drop set from there, getting both your power training and volume, without a gajillion sets of redundant movements.

>shitskin niggers being mental midgets and subhuman scum who care nothing about the people around them
imagine my shock

Eleiko have microplates, in powerlifting you can load any half kg

what the fuck

I think he means that instead of taking off a five and putting on a ten, he'll just throw on a another five if it's the last set.

So I can brag on fit how many plates I bench

Probably brainlets who can't into math so they only use 10s to make counting easier or something.

Based.

This. I only have 25lb plates in my home gym because I’m not a weakfag

i am seeing a lot of girls and guys doing curls and lunges at the squat rack.

What’s actually wrong with doing curls in the squat rack? I do them

>progression in 50lb increments

So you started on a 95lb ohp and next session went to a 145lb ohp?

Wait..Is he attempting a 445lb squat?(if those are 10s)

Attached: 727DDBCE-1E62-44C6-B9DA-EC407FDE8E9A.jpg (299x302, 8K)

you can do curls anywhere else. You can only do squats at the squat rack. Not sure if you are just trolling me to see if i am new here

I should add that there’s the same amount of bars as racks and if it’s busy I move

But if it’s not busy I stay there

>he doesn't do pyramid sets or burn outs
if he does continuous sets dropping 10 pounds each set I see no problem with it

>implying implications
I moved up when 95lbs was my 20 rep max, I could do 135 for sets of 3 reps.

No, I meant my OHP is 50lbs

>tfw not even at 95lb ohp

>doesn't warm up

I do this with OHP if I'm warming up from 65lb to 5 10s (145) on each side.

You mad?

those are at most 5's, maybe 2.5's

Truly the anti-gravity machine.

Just swap out plates you fucking homo.

>he doesn't causally squat 445lb
never going to make it

>op is such a newbie he doesnt know what burnouts are

>my OHP is 50lbs
That means you are using 2.5lb plates...

He didn’t do burnouts tho, he left the 10s on the whole time without taking any off

Does your gym only have barbells and dumbbells? Your gym doesn't carry bars specifically made for curls?

Theres mathematically no reason to have more than two 10 lb plates on one side if the bad

>he counts the bar

>not warming up with 135.

oh good one

>warming up with 135lb squat
This is actual NYR faggot talk. If you were joking about joking then you are just some edgy fuck. If you were trying to make a joke, then you are a NYR

Saw someone doing fly pulls without weight and 3 pound curls last week

There’s EZ curl bars but they are bad for my wrists

4kg - small blues
8kg - small reds + small yellows

Squat rack is literally perfect for overhead press

please dont

Do. I do Squats, Ohp, then DL w the same bar. Usually both squat racks in my gym are empty for the most part..

>what are drop sets?

>eggman.gif

epic :)

based ohper in squat rack

looking at the nogs shoes and the fact that its january i can guarantee you he has no idea what a drop set is, had no intention of doing one, and definitely does not give a flying fuck about power training or volume. sometimes OP is right

>tfw mystics hogging the gym abacus again

I don’t understand

People getting gym memberships just to only run at the gym. Literally paying for something you can do for free.

So I'm on day.. 7 of going to the gym almost every day

I'm eating clean. I'm intermittent fasting. My doms is gone. But i haven't fucking lost any weight.

Will this shit kick in eventually?

Are you in a caloric deficit?

Oh yes. Much so. Even cut out all alcohol

I just hope that maybe my metabolism is show as fuck from not exercising in years

>walk into gym, all 8 squat racks are full
>mostly competent lifters doing their thing
>2 dudes in one rack squatting 115lbs not even to quarter depth
I’m all for inclusiveness but come on. I just want to actually use the rack properly

That's not a thing.
Don't worry about it for at least another week or two, some people have the "woosh" where your fat cells fill up with water instead of just fucking off, so assuming your math isn't wrong you'll piss it out soon.

>ends in 5
user, are you counting the bar?

Fucking got me

Thanks dude

Find someone in your strength class and ask to work in

I’ve been OHPing in the squat rack lately but I only do it if it’s been empty for a while

>OHPing in the squat rack, because fuck cleans
>dude bro that i never saw asked how many more sets
> "six, but you can work in if you want"
> - "that's fine i can wait, i need to do some deadlifts"

Don't you ever tell me that i can't OHP in the squat rack.

>that's fine i can wait, i need to do some deadlifts
Why wouldn't he just get a second bar?

>Today
>Doing cardio on track
>Looking forward at equipment room where broscience and dumb faggots who have no idea what they are doing go

How do they get away with it?

We have less than 1 barbell per bench/rack, so usually they're allocated to said stations, didn't check if the benches were available.

You can squat and in case of failure you can drop the bar behind if you have bumper plates
I also do but anywhere has rack is suitable for ohp if you are trying for over %90 1rpm. Since cleaning the bar will make you loose energy.

Please explain how you're going to get squat weight onto your shoulders without a rack.

wait, are you not supposed to ohp in the squat rack?

What's wrong with drop sets?

Why not do lunges in the squat rack if you're using the barbell?

I do lunges right after back squats

I do all the time. Fuck cleaning the bar for each set.

but...how?

Fuck off cunt, i squat 115 to full depth. I've just dislocated my patella too many times to overload that shit

no idiot you only put 1 plate on

>That image.
I do that unironically every year.
What are you going to do, fight me?
Also, chek'd.

Nobody gives a fuck that you say it. But just know you’re a fucking loser with the shitty sense of humour of a 56 year old dad.
