I don't really see the problem with doing other exercises such as bar row, bicep curl and deadlift with/in the squat rack. If other people want to you it, they can ASK to jump in between or sets wait until you've finished.

Let's think about this logically. What is the purpose of a rack? Safety. If you hit failure, pass out, or whatever then there is a giant metal rack there to stop the bar from grounding you.

Why the Hell do you need this extra bit of safety with a curl. If you fail, then you just put the bar down.

I shouldn't have to ask the faggot curling in the rack if I can share with him if I'm trying to use it for what it is made for. Your lazy ass can pick the bar up off the floor. If you can't deadlift what you can bicep curl with extreme ease, then you have serious problems.

After that I'll go take a shit, I won't wash my hands, and I'll use the smith machine you were going to use for shrugs for behind the back pinky curls for 5 sets using 8 minute rest intervals, and leave a little shit smear on there for you.

I pay my money too, I can do whatever I want to, wherever I want to, and whenever I want to... Asshole.

Don't worry, the gym staff probably do let you around the real weights. Do you really venture outside of the aerobic room with the grannies.

Don't worry, one day you will be able to form a fully coherent statement.

	I love it when a plan comes together.
