What I saw in the gym today

[Merkaba]

Wow...Some guy came in, did some cold stretches, then started doing 135lb cross legged lateral deadlifts....???? I guess. Legs crossed and going staight up and down, but then turning and going about 45 degrees from center, going off to the side, twisted. Back like a goddam rainbow to top it off.

I'm pretty tech savvy but for some reason lately I'm seeing things in the gym and otherwise that I wish I would've snapped a quick pic with my phone camera. I gotta do better catching dumbos in 2011.

yeah, i think they call that one the lumbar dismantler. he'll be jacked and crippled in no time.

 

[braveheart07]

lol crazy.

Why the hell do people try to do all this ridiculous stuff? You see people doing pointless crap on bosu balls, various odd movements with the cable machine, etc. Why can't people just pick up a barbell and lift it?

Lifting and twisting is a good way to get an inguinal hernia!

 

[IronAddict]

Wow, that's gonna be a short lived bodybuilding endeavor. I got pains in my back just visualizing that.

Sounds like a good New Year's Resolution.

I'm stealing this pic. If you haven't seen the vid of the guy squatting on the freaking bosu please look it up.

 

[SloppyJ]

Wow...

There's some dude in my gym who has a twitch I guess. He always looks like he's trying to pop his neck.

But no ball squatters.

the funny thing about the guy's trainer is allowing him to do that squat. LOL

That's how you know it's time to find a new trainer. I've seen some back stuff, but nothing near as bad as what Merk described in his post.
