Now that's some funny stuff right there.

wow, that is reaching a new level of incompetence. My gym is probably worse than the majority of peoples on here when it comes to curl monkeys and mirror starers, but I have never seen anything like that

First off he put me on what was basically a body building routine, Leg presses were the primary leg work out and the guy tried to sell me deca on the third day. Needless to say I ended up canceling the training which was right around the time I found S&P and found what I needed to get me out of my rut.

The funniest part is that when I wanted the training I told them I wanted to train to compliment my BJJ and MT training. They had no clue, now that the ATT opened in there every trainer is in TAPOUT and Affliction gear. One trainer even trains people wearing mma gloves.

Fortunately they didn't take out any of the good equipment or free weights and don't bother me when I deadlift so I just ignore the staff.
Wow.

The correct answer to your problem is "Squats and milk."

I used to go to a hardcore well known local gym but it was too far. Now I go to a corporate hgym (LA) and most people are rich because of the location. Some guys are idiots, some guys are for real, chicks are hot. I'm happy with my gym except for Mon-Thu 5PM-9PM.= that is way too full

Holy shit. I just went to the Planet Fruit website, what a joke. I guess thats the gym for women with low self esteem, and effeminate men.

Fuck that place.
