    FUUUUCK. This gym makes me just want to lift and lift. I BLEW through my main stuff like they were toys. Then I hit a bunch of bruhbuilding.

    SO. MUCH. QUALITY. STUFF.










    This is just the two "barbell rooms".

    There is a huge ass room with plate loaded machine stuff (hammer strength, life fitness, magnum stuff)

    THEN another fucking room with selectorized cable stuff

    THEN a fucking cardio bunny room

    the crossfit room has 5 c2 rowers, all the crossfit shit. paralletes, boxes, kbs, bands, and shit. Buncha GHDs and roman chairs. FULL line of free motion cable machines.

    DBs up to fucking unmarked gigantic 2 hundos. Its crazy.

    CRAZY. I LOVE IT.

    best part is all sorts of people working hard buncha large ass black men benching 4billsplus in jeans. LOVE THIS PLACE!

    29 a month wtf man. Why havent I joined sooner?

    If you guys are ever in town. Fitness world in Florence and Darlington SC. This location is Darlington and its awesome.

    Sweet gym. Wish there was a place like that in Spartanburg. All we have are a couple Crossfit shitholes.

    yeah plus it has actual powerlifters who actually compete in full meets.

    150108
    Front Squat: 45x8, 135x8, 185x8, 205x8, 225x8
    Pause Bench: 45x10, 135x5, 205x5x3
    Hack Squat: sledx8x2, 1ppsx8x2, 2ppsx8x2
    Hammer Pulldown: 3x12
    DB Curls: 4x10
    Pallof Press: 3x10

    Ok day, its purposely light, and I didnt really have any assistance planned so I dicked about a bit. Not sure I really like hack squat. It puts a lot of pressure on my knees and doesnt feel like a quad movement to me. Not as good as front squat. Also did not like the hammer pulldown it puts my wrist in a weird ass position.

    lol wuts a bodypart split. This week training wise has been fun. More fun than I can ever remember having the entire time I have lifted short of meets. I go in hit 1-3 important big shit lifts, then do some bruh work. I admit i went a little machine nuts, its nice to have those movement s at hand because 1) they dont require a shit ton of stablization which makes them pretty easy to recover from. 2) most of them are just isolation movements so the “muscle” gets worked. Thats total fucking bro science but I dont care. I turned a relatively crappy day due to work into a fun night. I love having a place to drive to that is open to my schedule.

    I dunno dude I just wanna lift and be happy atleast 45% of the time.
