Wut?
Studies have actually shown grunting all the way to yelling increases muscle output.
Why do you think tennis players grunt? There is empirical evidence it increases power.
That being said grunting and dropping depends on the gym and its rules of decorum. A general fitness gym like PF with mainly cardio and machines grunts and drops are generally frowned upon and I think that is fine. Mainly free weight gyms or rooms grunting and dropping are expected. Crossfit Boxes grunting and dropping are damn near required. In the video in the OP it seems like a gym that allows a reasonable level of lunking, while I view setting up the camera for a vanity lift as being a douche such is life today.

Honestly, and I don't watch much tennis, but I really only see the women extolling loud arse grunts and yells.
I can't really recall any men doing to a high degree.

Men tend to do it more on serves because that is where at least according to the studies it has the most impact. Conners was the OG grunter but his choice to do it was likely more sports psychology than sports physiology. Djokovic, Kuerten, Murray, Aggasi, and Nadal are all well-known male grunters whereas, by contrast, Federer is quiet as a church mouse.

One lift and a drop is doing a max, which is pointless under the circumstances.
Working out to get stronger is doing less weight and more reps, not straining to lift once, and dropping immediately.
Even though you made a solid point at the end of your post about the guy’s general behavior, you lost all credibility here. Muscular strength is literally defined as the maximal force produced in one repetition. So if one is improving strength, they are lifting heavy weights with low reps. There’s certainly a place for that. Too many people out there criticize workouts without having a clue what they’re actually talking about

That's not what I said.
I said that working out to increase strength is not lifting your max one time. It's lifting a lesser weight multiple times.
You do more to increase your strength by lifting half your max numerous times than lifting your max one time. That lift isn't improving your muscular strength, it's tiring your muscles out.
Now, if you don't care about getting stronger, and just want to get more cut, then you should do maximum reps with minimal weight.
But understand this: getting bigger muscles does not equal getting stronger. Most guys with swelled muscles and no body fat are not all that strong. They can lift weights in the gym, but that's about it. They can't lug big rocks, pull tractors, split cords of wood, etc...
The guys who win strongest man in the world are not chiseled Apollos. They are big tanks with a lot of body fat over their muscles.

Look I don’t want to make this personal. I’m sure you are a manly Man and your wife is the personification of everything good and decent. Good women have kept me alive so first of all — PRO WOMAN. But you are blue-pilled, son. You’ve been feminized. You don’t even know it. You’ve bought that the true nature of man is to work around the ladies delicate sensibilities .
That guy in the video fricks. A lot. He takes it and they thank him and stalk his social media. Someday you’ll get a glimpse of what a doormat you are in this culture . It usual happens in your 50s, when men realize their value was to be a beast of burden and deny themselves everything they want and desire.because “ it’s the right thing to do”.
I write this at 4:19 pm from one of the nicest infinity pools in Rawai Phuket. Knowing that at least three of my married friends in their mid 50s are damned near suicidal because they’ve taken the back seat to angry entitled women their whole lives. Again, not YOU or YOUR wife .
(Anticipating the Straw Man ladyboy references let me add that to pay for sex is weak and pathetic which is why we are here and not in some Pattaya shithole. )
You Might want to investigate your assumptions and notice how toxic femininity has destroyed our culture.In the 2 countries I visit regularly ( Costa Rica being the other) women love to be women and expect men to be men. And the culture isn’t designed to teach little boys they suck because they have a set of balls.
TLDR- frick that lady . Grunt like a fricking man.

I've told someone not to drop weights before. Dude was dropping dumbbells from a solid three/four feet doing flat dumbbell presses. That destroys the dumbbells over time and fricks everyone else.
Dude in that video didn't drop the weights and he wasn't loud/obnoxious

The thing is boy, nobody here has even heard of you. ( or check the references on my last week of posting where I mention my location.). But they KNOW me. So smirk all you want and go fix your wife’s boyfriend some chamomile before he gets upset and makes you wax his jeep.

That’s a lot of words just to tell us how insecure about your penis size you are.

She's yelling more. Why didn't she walk up to tell him that?
Great question. Karens are bullies and they have a huge inner coward. They know that approaching, within arm reach, may cost them a few teeth, or knots on their head, if the guy turned out to be animalistic.
She was actually bitching aboot his noise, but thinking aboot his unit.

Never bragged about my penis size . Either length or girth. It’s never been a particular strength. But thanks for inquiring. Blue pilled men always talk about other mens dicks btw. Angry feminists implanted that little sick meme in your head to steal your masculine power and you are too fricking dumb to know it. Besides the back and forth shitbaggery which is douche on both our parts , just sit and think about where the little dick thing came from and who it is used to shame and control. It sure as hell ain’t dudes. It’s blue haired feminists .
Damn, I’m gonna have to pull up a chair and explain just how hoodwinked some of you good old baws actually are.

Is this dude dropping weights directly on the tiled floor?
Plates look like polyurethane. It'll be alright if he's not power cleaning them. Meanwhile, Captain Karen has a problem with people being different from her and being strong.

Someone doesn't train to a peak for powerlifting meets, where you test that strength you've built, or just do a mock meet in the gym for the same purpose. Ever heard of steploading? No, because you and that other Karen don't know wtf you're talking about.
