I also found it amazing that after burning your muscles, your body turns it into fat. I think that must be something like transubstantiation. . .
fat is not muscle. muscle is not fat. One cannot be the other. What an idiot.
edit: I was calling Mr. Trainer idiot. Not you Easjer.
dude is a dumb ass, just ignore him as you did. but don't let him keep you from using the machines or weights you want to use! ...keep the volume on your music up, lol.

lol personal trainers are re ed. i see them in the squat racks doing curls 24/7. lmao
some are legit and real, others are noobs.
Curls on the squat rack = #1 pet peeve.
#2 not replacing equipment where it belongs.
#3 using dumbells in front of db rack and blocking out a whole section of db. Get what you need and get the out of the way.
What are some of you guys pet peeves at the gym?
1) not wiping down equipment you've sweat all over
2) chatting & hogging weights inefficiently while someone else wants to use them
3) not re racking weights
4) curls on a ing squat rack you ing bags
My only pet peeve is looking at me when I am working out. Other than that, nothing else.
My biggest pet peeve when in a gym is being in a gym.
So how fat are you then?
I'm not fat at all. There are ways to keep in shape that don't involve spending time in a gym.
Like eating.............it keeps in a round shape.
Sure.
If you're happier thinking I'm a fatty, knock yourself out.
I won't lie, what I said was pretty damn unfunny.
Today was a light day so i just did 4 pushups.
Question: Are ass to ground squats bad?
I was doing them today and as I finished my set one of the personal trainers approached me asking how long I've been going that low. I said for a little while and he said that it strains my lower back and I should discontinue. I have always heard going lower the better. Is this guy just dumb as or am I doing something bad for my lower back?
Weakling.
Can you hammer a six inch e through a board with your penis?
Your knees should not move past your toes, it strains the knees, also i don't see how you can maintain a neutral back by going down so low. The legs will surely get worked out but it probably stresses other things that should not be stressed. So unless you have the balance of an elven rogue with an agility of 99, and the strength to maintain that balance throughout a weighted squat, you should not be doing that.
corso.
I just go down until I feel the excess weight is gonna make me my pants. If you are ever near me while I am squatting, I am farting a lot because of all the weight that is affecting my butt, so it will be pretty smelly around.
Really low squats piss me the off, I had to do a load of them the past couple of years for football. It pisses me off how all football coaches stress getting so low, nothing was worse than maxing out on squats. You would feel like you were going low as with a lot of weight on, and they never count the squat max because it wasn't low enough for them. That is bad for your back and knees...even if I wore belts and used perfect form, my back was always ed after squating. I hated it.
okay all you ST girls.. somebody must have this problem on here.
i've been working myself out strongly the past year, trying to lose at least 3 pounds off my legs. i'm 5'3.5, and weigh 120. ive been trying to do everything from squats, running on the treadmill every day for one hour. it won't work.. im fine with my upper body, its pretty thin. but when it starts from the legs, it just gets curvier.. like not too big, but i just feel uncomfortable with my butt and legs. at least getting them toned....
anyone got any suggestions? thanks so much
i'd say, for most people going that low is not bad at all, provided you keep proper form. most trainers are so ing stupid i wouldn't put much stock into they tell you.
here's the deal, its a must imo to go past parallel, anything beyond that listen to your body. some people cannot handle the mashing of the hamstrings against the calf when doing a full squat as it changes the stress on your body. that being said, for some there is no bother at all. in fact, i go past parallel but not all the way down, like i used to, b/c i can feel unusual stress on my knees when the hammy meets the calf. that being said, if going all the way down does not hurt your knees then you should probably keep doing it. don't forget, your knees should track your toes.

Do leg curls, flutter kicks, Two/One legged hamstring bridges, also against a wall squat down and hold at a 90 degree angle for 30-40 seconds.okay all you ST girls.. somebody must have this problem on here.
