    Is this a spot gone wrong?



    I need a new gym.
    The things with these static holds like this . . . .
    Me thinks this would be hard to do if had as much weight below your waist as you are supposed to.

    and yes, you need a new gym.

    I would spend all my time there working on mind control: "just let go, just let go, just let go, just let go"

    The dude on top... err... dude holding onto the bar, slips. Both plummet to the ground. Teeth. Everywhere.

    pffff! block pull elevated heel deadlift . . .for dem quadz.

    and they are very particular about the starting height . . .precise

    Explain this to me (caught this is my self-vid-form-check)



    They use that bumper plate for something, several dumbells, ridiculous elevated heel set-up, etc , etc, etc . . .
    All under supervision of "certified" trainer.
    At least your guy came up with his stupid set up all on his own.

    Re-derail:
    1. Most of my jeans fail at the inseam from my thighs rubbing together; looks fine for a long time and then one day a huge tear will open. They're cheap and expendable, so I never really cared. Recently though I noticed similar wear in my suit pants, only it's wool, so pilling instead of straight up tearing, but I fear the eventual result will be the same, and in this case, it'd be rather obnoxious to lose a pricey suit over a hole in the inseam. Anyone have any solutions for this? I saw various suggestions on the interwebzz about silk liners, different crotch fits, and pilling as a function of wool type, but nothing concrete.

    2. Two-tone saddle shoes: In 4th grade there was a kid named Yakov who wore a pair every day, light brown with dark brown saddle. Of course we made fun of him because they made him bad at kickball, plus they weren't sneakers. Fortunately now I realize the follies of my ways and am wondering if these babies are due up for a comeback. Might be a fun way for the wearer to stand out from the rest of the rat race juuuuuust a hair? ....or might just make him look like an asshole. Not sure. PS I eventually realized that as an immigrant from Ukraine, those shoes were the only pair poor Yakov had, which made him both fashion-forward and pitiful....but mostly just pitiful, so I tracked him down on Facebook to apologize and he was pretty much like, "Dude I forgot all about that until just now." I can't tell if he meant, "It's cool, long time ago + we were kids" or "Fuck you, I can't believe you dredged that pain back for me, asshole." Shit.

    If your thighs are rubbing together and abrading the fabric I don't see how a silk liner is going to help. Maybe start buying two pairs of pants for every one jacket and rotate them? Or just walk like a cowboy everywhere you go.

    I hope that two tone saddle shoes aren't making a comeback. Not a fan.

    This is one of the worst things I've ever read. The irony of an article telling you how to lose muscular bodyweight appearing on a web site called "livestrong" also isn't lost on me.
