Oh yikes. Why is that?

I'm not sure. Maybe it has something to do with lack of flexibility or something. I've been told specifically that my hip flexors are very tight.

I go to 2 different gyms. One of them has a smith that goes up and down at an exact 90 degree angle. That machine is uncomfortable and I don't use it, the motion doesn't feel natural. The smith at the other gym goes at an angle, and squatting on there feels fine. I know I'm not activating any of my core or stabilizer muscles when I'm on the smith, but it's better than nothing. I'm able to go slow, deep, and pause at the bottom. I'm essentially doing a hack squat.

It's odd because my deadlift is fine, both on a regular barbell and hex bar. I'm also able to do good mornings with a barbell. For some weird reason my barbell squat just sucks and I've given up long ago.

So my confession would be I prefer to squat on my Rogers squat pro than barbell just because it's more comfortable. I still do both weekly, but I have a gigantic VAG and prefer the machine. I just push through the barbell squats though even though they aren't fun as hell like they used to be.

In envious of the wrist flexibility Olympic lifters have

If I had that it would make my front squats and cleans more efficient

Gotta let it cool off a little bit, but you want it to be hard enough to show off through the shorts.

She ended up loving the BBC I believe. And also judging by the thighs i recall I bet her hotness window was brief.

I use straps on deadlifts when I go over 4 plates

And I primarily squat using a safety squat bar due to shoulder issues

What you did there, I see it.

Since my gym forbids chalk, I do too though but I don't use straps till I go over 5 wheels because dropping that shite makes a frick ton of noise.

We've all been there. There's a couple of girls at my gym that make some noise when working out. Sounded like a female tennis match was going on.

If I do the elliptical early in the morning, the movement gives me morning wood, and I have to either discretely tuck the big guy into my waistband or find a way to sprint to the locker room without knocking someone down with my member. Only happens in the morning.

My gym doesn't allow chalk if you're messy with it. The thing is, even if you are careful, they still bitch. It's fricking chalk. Who cares?

They have a blackboard and there is stick chalk and I just take it and rub it on my callouses.
