thread of getting sw0le

didn't even bother with the customary "xp lol" up there did i

Ty, I have none of these

serious answer, i bring my phone, earbuds and flat-soled shoes. why? cause i'm a loner, dottie, a rebel

xp You don't have a phone?

龜 the real ans from me is next to nothing.

a water bottle is about it, just to keep you from walking back and forth to the drinking fountain

clothes you can move in, that's about it.

shoes are a slight consideration. if you're doing a lot of lifting with your feet planted, flatter harder soled shoes are best. cushier running shoes aren't great, bball shoes can hamper ankle movement

i don't fuck w/ a phone or ipod working out. i hate having things in my ears or wires hanging off my body. just me tho.

xp You don't have a phone?

lol

I forgot to bring a lock :(

:(

parallel bar dips r my new thing i think theyre really going to help me

they are the shit

the first time i tried them i literally could not do 1. now i do 3x5 with 30kg between my ankles just sayin

may i feel yr ankles, TH?

My gym doesn't have parallel bars, but I dunno, the rings?

morbius you CAD

lol

my gym EDC consists of a backpack containing a padlock, a pair of underarmour compression shorts, basketball shorts (or pants on deadlift day), some ugly old chuck taylor low tops, a Klean Kanteen, , two 1.25lb microplates, and a new weightlifting belt. I love my weightlifting belt and wish I would have bought it years ago. I bought it from Best Belts. I got the 3" model because my ribs are close to my hips and I like to wear it while deadlifting. I consider it a piece of safety gear because I am old and have hurt my back a couple of times when I've lost tightness during lifts when exhausted. the belt helps me remember to brace my core hard during the whole movement even when exhausted.

joined a gym, did some squats :)

guys someone taught me how to lift weights today it was fun!

How do u lift weights. Asking for a friend

i did squats today also

Can somebody lift my weights for me

the best way to lift a weight is with your mind unless the weight is on your mind and then you should get a friend to help

take a load off danny

lagoon which gym?

blink, its equinox cheapo brand, not bad

$15 - 25 depending on if u want to go to the manhattan gyms

need more kettle bells and a better pull up set up to tbh

i am sore in weird new places

notice trying to squat im not even approaching a weight where its really gonna work my legs yet cause my core is not strong enough

Aren't there machines where you can do squats while leaning up against something?

probably if u r coward

Ah, OK. Well then get your core right with some yoga immediately.

i think if i just keep doing the squats my core i will catch up, yoga is cool tho too, i mean i do core exercises regularly but i guess its just diff w heavy weight

not that im lifting that heavy but i plan on working my way up

need to get more xplosion

depth is always the problem for me, may be the problem i have forever. that's fine! it's fine.

um its actually not fine

if any of you have some tips for loosening up unusually tight hamstrings, tia

cf: yoga

nooooo
