Yeah, I ain't going to fuck with public gyms even when they reopen this year. Not a good idea. Unless they find a way to wipe down everything immediately behind everyone else, which is impossible.

I don't see how any State thinks a Public gym can be reopened anytime soon.

This is probably one of the best training devices I've ever used. My neck has grown stronger, bigger, and wider since using it. I train on it 6 days a week but thats because I've trained my neck using hand and towel resistance over the years so I'm use to training so many days. I train using a neck program by a guy named Mike "The Machine" Bruce. His program is that you train every side of the neck 3 sets of 100 reps.... once you get all 3 sets with 100 then you increase the weight. The neck flex comes with a resistant band that has 19 lbs of resistance and if you stretch it out further it adds even more resistance. I haven't got to a stronger band yet because this one is still tough enough.
 
Good Looking out TimRock.

Just got me a short squat stand with the spotter arms on back order. From Titan Fitness.

this is the main thing I miss about the gym, I can’t do squats like I want to. I have a barbell and some plates but dont have the setup needed to do the weight I want. I got some bands but I don’t care what they say in those videos you can’t get that same feeling that you would with weights
 
Mannnnn I took some of that C4 sport preworkout drink before my workout and that stuff really got me going, i usually take LIT. this stuff isn’t as good as LIT but it gave me a good pump, only problem is I crashed like a shot down plane when it started wearing off, I’m still feeling it, I never crashed like this with LIT
 
did you get your dumbbels? i just got an email from amazon that the seller is no longer active. Not sure if i am gonna get mines, but they said let them know if it hasn't arrived after 3 days of shipping.

It was these

I got a e-mail yesterday that my seller is no longer active. But to let them know if I don't receive the item by the scheduled time. I have a tracking number, so we'll see. I'm sure they're coming from China so it will take a while.

Same thing happen to me with some surgical mask I ordered, but I received them fine.

I did just miss some Amazon Basics dumbbells the other day.

Yeah I got a tracking number too, so we'll see. But USPS only says the tracking label was created. Have reached shipped status yet
 
anybody know where i can get this attachment (exactly like it, notice the handles flip).

the links in the comments don't work.
 
Need them spread apart further. Nasty people coughing and sweating on the partition, plus their funky behind all up in that space. I'm going to wait 6 months after opening before I return or try to be the first one in the gym

Co-Sign.

The free weights, racks, etc? No way they can clean everything behind each person using. Bathroom, water fountain, too much shit gets touched in a gym. I ain't going to one for while. TBH, aside of the girls, I don't think I would miss much.

I do 5x5 Squat, Clean, Rows, Press, I'll do dumbbell deadlifts so I don't slam on my floor. And I'm good. Mix in Calisthenics is actually great for you.

Ya'll should also invest in a rower or an air bike and boom, what's the point rushing to a gym if you got the space to set one up?

I'm also finding that I can get my sets in quick. So As soon as I get wake up, I get my reps & hit the bike or run to finish off. After work, get some sets in before a meal, shit is great to be honest lol.

Gyms might have a hard time rebounding even after things get better.
 
my gym finally opened. i'm just gonna do some plyometrics around 4 am. them type of workouts for now. really dont matter though. shits not going away anytime soon. gonna be good to get back at it though.
 
Man....I was saying that I'm not going back to the gym, but I might chance it. I really need to get a good workout in with some machines and free weights. Plus I miss all the chicks in yoga pants.
Eventually we all gotta get back in there.

Yeah, just got back after two months. My free weights and cardio still good, but I got a ways to go on treadmill. I use to jog for about an hour, today I barely made 15 minutes...LoL. Like you said, it will be around, just have to build back up.

FUCK! Ohio still hasn't outlined a plan to open gyms back up. I'm hoping by the end of the month. I want to sit in the sauna so badly!
 
Gold's gym re-opening on the 18th for the state of texas. May go in early or not at all..but like somebody said, miss seeing the women. But i have a garage gym so I'm good. Hit the squats soon as i woke up this morning.

Does anybody else run sprints?

Word out is that gyms will be opening in 2 weeks. DeWine ain't make it official yet. Should coincide with the end of the 'stay safe' order.
