re: Late night lifting crew

I haven't been in a commercial gym in so long, I can almost forget what that was like. Almost .....

Mostly what bugged me was "curling in the squat rack" variety of stuff, but the socializers and the phone-fricker-withers were next on the list.

However, I could see the difference between the person using their phone a lot because they were obviously using some app on their phone as their training log or for some other pertinent reason versus the person who was just texting their friends or cruising intsa or playing games, someone wasting YOUR time. That was aggravating.

Same thing with tripods. I don't mind people recording themselves and setting up elaborate video recording systems when it's obvious they're doing it for serious reasons, such as form critiques with an online coach or maybe just for themselves at home later, etc. That's fine, but nobody likes having to accommodate the "Influencer".....give me a break.

Well, I've completed steps #1 and #2 of this morning lifting biznass, I went to bed at 8:45, got out of bed at 6:30, so now all I have to do is go lift. Hmmmm, 2 out of 3 aint bad.
