Something I found hilarious was yesterday was the 4th so I knew the gym was going to be busy. We get there and low and behold... 5 people in the power room. 3 doing knee bends... or what they like to call squats. SS and I walk in, see everyone and she asks me not to play my speaker till they leave. I say, ok... I'll wait. I drop my bag in the corner and set up everything. I ask the 3 guys in the cage... are you pulling? (I ask this b/c they're all standing on the platform) They reply after squatting, we're gonna deadlift. So, I look at them and say... you're not pulling now, so I take a bar and drop it on the platform. I go put red hot on and skip my band warm up. I'm not going to end up waiting to pull b/c they get to the platform first. I warm up with pulls; 135 for 5, then again, 225 for 5, 315 for 5. I do 365 for 5 and all of a sudden their attitudes change... lol This is hilarious b/c 365 for 5 is good if you're a chick. I put 415 and do a couple sets of 5 before they start asking me questions. They ask me about my lifts and I offer some pointers when squatting like spotting since they did a terrible job, actual depth when squatting, etc. While they're asking me questions, I tell them we can share the platform and they say... that's ok we'll do rack pulls out on the main floor. One of them tells the other.. you can stay and try to pull that. I almost break out laughing b/c again it's only 415 If I was pulling 515 for easy 5's then I would feel a bit different but 415 is baby weight.
SS informs me I was an asshole to them and I tell her I was just being honest and if they want smoke blown up their ass they should talk to their girlfriends and not me.
