The Official Gym & Fitness Thread

I was at the gym earlier. In planet fitness they have a bunch of treadmills with huge ceiling fans over head. I got off my treadmill and there was this lady, probably mid thirties a few treadmills over, as I walked behind her, HOLY CRAP, I hadn't smelled anything that raunchy in a few days. This lady just let out a silent deadly one!

I looked her way on the way back, I had to go get a spray bottle to wipe the machine I used down, and you could tell she knew I was looking, she just kept looking straight ahead.


this is the area...





I only come here for upper body, I use the squat racks at school for legs. The workers at PF probably think I'm one of those dorks who only ever does upper body.

 

Planet Fitness.

Don't lift too hard, you might grunt to loud...I hate those fuckers.

I'm doing legs tomorrow morning. Not excited at all.

 

That's no offense to you, either...I just hate Planet Fitness

 

Ya i noticed a huge decrease in strength since swithing over from 5x5 to 4x8's.

You guys ever try Upper and Lower body training?

Ex.

Week1
Workout A - Upper
Workout B - Lower
Cardio
Workout A - Upper
Workout B - Lower

Week2
Workout C - Upper
Workout D - Lower
Cardio
Workout C - Upper
Workout D - Lower

 

I have a friend that does upper and lower body workouts. He does something similar to yours, except instead of doing ABAB in wk 1 and CDCD in week 2, he just does ABCD each week. I've never hit a body part more than once a week, but he said the key is to make sure you diet right for the extra training. Working out twice as much per week won't do anything if you don't up that calories and macros....you'd probably even lose size! But, I've never done it. The guy I know that does it knows his shit, though lol. He's prob 5'10, 180ish and maybe 7-8% bf. The only reason I don't try it is that my 4 a day plan works for me

 

NOPE! I know what you guys mean, no offense taken. But for 12 bucks a month I can get an upper body pump all day any day!



The atmosphere there is way better than the school gym though. Except for the farting lady... she should never be allowed to return!

 

Care to share your 4 day plan? Im looking to switch things up again

 

Legs are my favorite days when they are feeling as they should

nothing is better than doing legs and almost falling down the stairs because you forgot how much you just worked your legs

 

dont tell me youve never accidently ripped one when working out. I remember one time doing my lower abs on the floor mat....didnt even feel it comming. I must have look as dumb founded as the girl next to me. That was a conversation starter actually haha

This is my 2nd time doing this workout and can vouch 100% for it. The first time I did it a few years ago, I did it for 3 months and put on about 10 pounds. I just started it again this past Monday. Best workout I've ever done. You won't regret it.

I don't know what it is, but I hate em! I love the soreness the next few days, but I hate working them out...

Some of their rules just piss me off. They try so hard to make people feel comfortable that it gets ridiculous. People who are die-hard lifters are automatically shunned b/c it'll make the self-consious people feel bad. Bunch of damn liberals haha

Ripped one dead lifting with a friend a few months ago. There was a 35-40 yr old lady (milf) right beside us...as soon as I did it, he went, "DANG DUDE, DID YOU SHIT?!"...I was so embarrassed

 

Getting kicked out of a planet fitness is on my bucket list

 

Kali Muscle has become one of my favs......still want to try some Hyphy Mud!

 

Me too. Have ya'll seen the commercial for Iron Sports Gym? It's a response to the stupid Planet Fitness commercials:

I will be cheering for Steve Cook

 

Oh yes! I'm cheering for all the US fellows, but especially Kai Greene, Jay Cutler, and Phil Health.

Steve Cook is a badass. Hopefully he'll win the physique competition

 

The moon is only gonna be 30% visible tonight...can't do legs today.
