Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

[BucciMane]

I'm getting rid of my membership and starting a home gym for myself.

I have a bench and barbell at home already. The selective dumbbells go up to 90lbs, so anything higher I will just purchase separately.

It will be about $1,500 total..

First day at the gym summed up

At first I was unsure of shyt, looking around like

but I got over that when I saw a lot of people doing dumb shyt. Always that one skinny white on his knees with a pull down machine



went for an hour, and said i was going to focus only on chest/back. Did the bench press, and quickly realized I'm weak as fukk

It sucks I want to go heavier, but I don't have anyone to spot me


maxed out at 160 on the lat pulldown, and the low row machine (low row probably my favorite exercise;might even do it for cardio)

Did the fly machine, incline press at like 180, and the chest press machine.


I did something wrong with the arm extension machine and hit myself hard as fukk on the top of my head. I think a breh saw

I dont even know if I'm going to try squatting without someone. I might wait for a trainer to do that with.


Do I deadlift in the squat area? There's nowhere else to do it really.


Anyone else get paranoid about a workout if they're not sore or exhausted? I thought it was off that I wasnt really tired when I left, but I got home and I barely could wipe after taking a dump. And I still have to go to my physical job later, and lift shyt.


Had fun but I need to plan a routine ahead of time



there was this latina who had me like

i had to catch myself

Being sore is not an indication of whether or not you had an effective workout. If you are timid to bench or squat without a spotter, just use dumbbells. I love the dumbbells far more than a barbell bench anyways. Much better results.

dumbbell squats?

No, I knew that would sound confusing. I'm typing on my phone, so I wanted to make my post short. I was trying to refer to the bench.

I worked on biceps yesterday, dumbbell curls. Jogged a mile.

 

[tripleaamin]

Yes

Goblet squats

Imo for anyway new to lifting Golblet squats should be the first squat variation they learn.

 

[AquaCityBoy]

Yes

Goblet squats

Ehh, goblet squats are best as an accessory, not a primary lift.
