recnetly i moved gyms.. i was going to one of those 24 hour places. you know the ones im talking about.. with the real nice rubber 45lb weights with the little color coated handles to make them easy to carry and identify, you know the place, some of you probably go to one yourself... i moved to a powerlifting gym, and in one day went from being one of the baddest mfers in one place to being slightly above average in another- it was definately a shock... i thought i would put together a fun list to decide if you have outgrown your gym - feel free to add any if i miss some :-)

1. if you have to scour the entire facility looking for enough 45 lb weights to be able to leg press your 1000+ pounds.

2. if people have made comments to you like "you are going to break the machines doing that" or "this wasnt designed for that kind of weight"

3. if people have complained about the noises you make while lifting

4. people look at you like a freak when you are repping 120 lb barbells because that is the biggest they got, then complianing because you had to "drop" the weight because it felt like your chest was going to explode
5. if they play anything by myley cyrus
6. people look at you with disgust when you sweat like a pig after putting up more weight than they could ever dream of

and finally- when you are the biggest, baddest muther in that place and everyone hates you for it.

we dont try to be intimidating, we arent mean to others but they still hate us because of what they think we "stand for" and it pisses me off... ok im done and off my rant.
