[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you go to a gym that only has one squat rack, and you get shut out, that's on you.

If you lift heavy, as you claim, you should be going to a powerlifting gym that has many squat racks. I'm certainly willing to drive 20 minutes to go to a gym like that rather than drive 5 minutes to the lame-o Big Chain Gyms near my house.[/quote]

What an odd assumption to make. What does liking powerlifting have to do with willingness to drive 20 minutes each way to the gym? I lift heavy and I go to a gym that has one power rack that two people can use at once. This gym is a 5 minute walk from my home. I am not going to spend an extra half hour or more every day driving to the gym if I don't need to. Plus I live in DC, and so the legit powerlifting gyms are either a pain to park at in the city or a farther drive than 20 minutes in the 'burbs.

FWIW not all non-powerlifting gyms are chain gyms. My gym is not a chain gym, and is usually not too busy, but occasionally both sides of the rack will be taken when I want to use it.[/quote]
