nice work. i'm getting started at knockin' down my cc debt. -
Amen. At my university's gym, it's really common for guys and girls to go really done up to the gym - guys: shower before the gym, hair styled, etc; girls: full makeup, hair done, etc-. So you'll have a bunch of people trolling the gym to pick people up, meaning you'll have guys do a few reps of something moderately heavy and then hitting on the girls walking around the free weights area. It's fun because people say they spend 2 hours in the gym, but really only spend 30 minutes actually working out. I also really enjoy seeing the random exercises people invent. There were two guys that were doing something that looked like a dip combined with a rocking/flailing movement. My absolute favorite is people dropping weights. There are guys who grab heavy dumbbells like 100lbs each, put them up for bench press and then drop them when they start violently coming down from their 1 rep that they barely got through. I know it's a lot of weight to control, but I swear it's like Donkey Kong in the gym at 5 every day.
