Ok i was at the Gym yesterday to do legs. The weight room has some nice leg machines along with a few racks. Well there is this one machine that Cybex makes that is like a squat, only you are laying down. Very smooth motion. I like it because it puts very little stress on my knees.
Anyway this guy was in there using that maching. He had no less than 8 plates (45lb)on each side of the machine. so this guy goes to do a set, does all this dramatic stuff to psych himself up then proceeds to move the weight all of maybe six inches from start to finish. does a set of ten then jumps off and does what appears to be a squat of some sorts using a 80lb DB. He held it between his legs and just squatted till it hit the floor. Which was again maybe a little more than six inches.
What is the point of these people? Why do they do this. I never can understand wanting to move a ton of weight, but only doing a half assed approach to it. Sure the guy could move a lot of weight a short distance, but his legs were tiny as hell.
