Instability, it’s functional dontcha know.

Actually, now that I think about it, this trainer was talking about how she needed do a better of job of moving the weight slowly during tempo bench press. Maybe the momentum from the hanging weights would make it more obvious if she was moving it too fast?

I've heard people claim the instability is good for rehab for "reasons". I have no idea if that is true, but putting a bunch of unstable weight on the bar is going to require benching in a rack unless you don't value your teeth.

New one for me.

I was updating my logbook, leaning it against the bar, when the guy next to me slammed into the collar of my bar with a snatch attempt.

That was interesting.

Overheard yesterday:
Client: “But we worked the back last week!”
Personal trainer: “Yes, yes, the back was last week.”
I can’t imagine what they’re doing.

lol, that is wonderful. There is a guy at my gym that I thought was bad, but this guy takes the cake on ROM.

I'll be. I thought Powerfactor training had been dead as a doornail since the 90's.

Goes to show bad new ideas and Silly Bullshit never really dies.
