I put my gym clothes in the washing machine in the morning and I forgot to take them out. Now by the time they are dry the gym will be closed. How stupid can I be?

Once you figure out that you don’t need to nuke your body every time you train, progress.

This capacity is different for everyone, but if you are legitimately fucked up after “leg day” you need to fix your “leg day.”

but the russians do it

Jeez today a guy did a whole set of squats with 25kg on one side and 30 on the other.

HOW CAN YOU NOT REALISE THAT THE BAR IS HORRIBLY IMBALANCED?

Also my arch nemesis was at the gym, the DYEL asian dude. 
He can’t squat lmaobar and deadlift lmaohalfplate properly, but every time I see him he has another person with him, going together on a nice trip to snap city. I try hard not to point out that he’s gonna ruin his spine/knees, cause I don’t want to come out as a douche. In any case, he seems so smug he wouldn’t listen anyway >.>

I talked with some guys at the gym and they think that my stalling is in my head, not because I can’t lift the weight.

Damnit, I must go harder

thatguyyousawbefore replied to your post: Theres a really cheap powerlifting gym in london…

I found a weightlifting gym at the halfway point between my school and home, considering it.

do it, you know you want to.

It’s much better to lift with other powerlifters anyway

Theres a really cheap powerlifting gym in london with the seal of approval of the GB powerlifting federation, but its in the middle of fucking nowhere. Just the tube cost to get there and back is £5, which is half the monthly fee of the gym 

Geez. I dont think I’ll join this year, but I will be training at the Oxford powerlifting gym for the summer which is awesome. Plus the people there really look like they know their shit about powerlifting, unlike here at Imperial.

Based rippetoe did it again

Holding the bar on the squats was so easy today I wanted to cry. The SS book barely has enough stuff on the grip, the videos are a must.
