I dunno breh I had a trainner who helped me lose 100 pounds and put on muscle... it depends on what you want to get out of it :patrice:

Should have clarified myself better

if your going to a planet fitness type gym in a major city, you not gonna get your money worth because the equipment you need is gone by the time you get there...
Those barbell racks get ran to

If it's a private gym, then it might be a decent idea for one..

I didn't go to planet fitness I worked with a trainer that claims he trains NBA athletes so my situation was different

If your trying to get in shape on some regular shyt..no imo

This dude who wanted to "train"me didn't understand that I wanted to work legs and I only had access to barbells only on my days off..

One day he was late and asked me what I was doing and I said deadlifts...i could feel the:martin:thru texts...

He thought I was gonna do cardio until he got there after I been there over 45 minutes:dead:

He taught me some shyt, but I like to do my own thing...its not like boxing or something...its exercise that you can develop your own routine that works for you..

This is coming from someone who used to go to the gym once every 3 months and stayed 15 minutes


What did he reach You?

:ohhh: so he had a certain way he wanted you to train but u wanted to train s different way

Basically he taught me about form for certain exercises. ..

The issue I had was i only get barbell access when I have a day off work...
When I get out of work in the evening, there is no chance of me getting a barbell rack..

All the workouts were upper body..i asked about squats and I didn't get an answer:stopitslime:

If you going to a public gym, you gotta structure your training around the times you can get a barbell rack..

Dumbells are cool, but you gonna wanna try compound exercises off gp..

It's a natural progression...

Form is gonna be a the big issue, but you start off small and learn by trial and error and by watching CERTAIN YouTube vids

I remember when I 1st tried squats and the plates fell off the barbell because I had no idea of what I was doing..:mjlol:

Another Chapter in the basketball diaries.

Today brehs, I heared the dumbest logic i've ever heared playing ball.

So 2v2 I'm checking the ball in, breh on the other team decides it will be a great Idea, to guard his teammates man as well " because I can't do anything before I check the ball in, and in his mind there is just no possibility of me getting the ball to my teammate with 2 people on him.

So I pass the ball to my teammate, he passes it back to me leaving me wide open for the easy lay up. :mjlol:

His Teammate :martin:

me and my teammate :russ:


So I'm checking the ball again, once again, he's guarding his teammates man, and he's still going on about how this is a good idea and there is no way I can get the ball to my teammate :mjlol:


His teammate " Just go guard your guy"

Him: No he can't get the ball to him :banderas:

I make a lazy in bound pass; but essentially I'm wide open for another easy bucket, my fault

Him: See! I told you:win:, they miss the shot we get the rebound and score

I'm checking the ball in again, once again he's covering his teammates guy

his teammate once again, " Tyler go guard your man"

tyler: no man he can't the ball to his guy:youngsabo:

his teammate :mindblown:

I pass the ball easily to my guy to which he then makes a quick pass back to me for an easy layup

Guys, I have no clue what this guys logic was, everyone on that court ( except for him) was confused at to what he was thinking. But I have to give it to him, he was sticking to his guns that this was a good plan
