Finally went to the gym!

[LiveFromThe781]

i felt it was time for a change, a fish can only grow to the size of his pond. Get ready for Shamu. Once i got more serious into my lifting and stopped my stupid ass cut and ate some real calories i gained 20lbs in about 1-1.5 months, with limited equipment, so im feeling very optimistic about my growth potential with
the capacity to do more exercises and a seemingly infinite amount of weight to use.

Im going through a recovery week right now so i basically went to the gym and did some lifts but i wasnt going all-out in the least. The thing that sucks is they use hexagonal plates so i cant do ab-rollouts, but its not a big deal. I didnt like that there was no E-Z bar there either, i may have to bring my own. All in all it was good though, even though it was hard to figure out some of the machines (i still have no idea how the hammer seated calf raise works) and afterwards i felt like i relieved a lot of stress.

ive also already seen some of the gym characters people talk about. while i was using the squat machine there was some guy next to me on what i believe was a leg press and everytime i looked over he was just sitting. then i saw him move to another machine and he just sat, he also weighed about 100 lbs drenched so i dont think he was resting everytime i looked over. there was another guy who seemed to be doing overhead shoulder presses the entire time i was there. i spent the whole time in the weight section away from those dreaded treadmills and bikes. the funniest thing was everyone on them was reading a magazine or book. wtf, if you can read words and comprehend a storyline while youre working out then youre not training hard enough. plus who the fuck goes to the gym to walk and run anyway? like you cant go outside and do that shit?

and hey all you guys were saying how theres so many girls there...well wtf i didnt see any. i guess no girls do weight training ='( owell, maybe when i decide to do some cardio ill go grab a treamill that i just bashed so badly, and try to stir up a convo while i do some HIIT skipping.

lol @ you bragging that you gained 20 lbs in 1-1.5 months... I hope you don't think that was solid muscle or something. You'd be lucky to gain 5-10 of muscle as a noob with a strict workout/diet regimen, comatose like sleep, and enhancements in that time period.

lol @ you bashing people looks when you look like the 2nd coming of Gheorghe Muresan.

glad you went..just keep going

beats working out at home IMO

and the girls...it depends on ur gym and when u go I guess. mine has hot ass employees to begin with lol..so hot women actually coming to the gym is a bonus.

man when they do yoga and all those stretching exercises.......MAAAAAAN..damn lol

anyway..ask the people who work there if you have any questions about the equipment..they will explain how to use everything

just don't become one of those people who sit around in there haha

nah im not going to become one of those novelty gym characters. like i saw a guy talking on his cellphone while doing cable curls...wtf?

i went yesterday and messed around some more, did a lot of back lifts, T-bar, lat machine, wide grip pullups (only did 4 proper ones lol) and deadlifts. i came home and was fucking spent. i went to bed at like 8:30....11 hrs sleep, not bad.

I don't give a fuck, son.

I'm saying It's not possible to put on 20 lbs of muscle in 1-1.5 months.

physically impossible.

I must say, If you did somehow, you have the GREATEST genetics in the fucking world and you should take up bodybuilding immediately. I'll make you my prodigy.. and you'll make me rich.

nah of course i realize it wasnt all muscle, im not anywhere near that naive to believe i could do that.

i never said it was all muscle anyway. i said i gained 20lbs in 1-1.5month(s) time and that im at 10%bf. if you want to do the math and figure out the LBM gained, then be my guest. i just know that everything i put wasnt muscle, but it wasnt all fat either.
