[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Put your headphones on and mind your own business. You’re there to workout, not socialize.[/quote]

Yeah, no.  Literally some of my best friends I've met at the gym.

How bout we modify your rule:

'if headphones are in, don't talk to that person'

But if no headphones are in, its fine to start a convo[/quote]
We will agree to disagree…[/quote]

But sometimes I like to workout without headphones?  What then?[/quote]
That’s on you to figure it out…[/quote]

Well, not really.  Original PP said everyone should "wear their headphones and MYOB"

If I don't wear headphones and chat with other members, that's really on THEM to figure out how to let it not bother them.  We're having a grand old time hanging out in the squat rack[/quote]

Oh please, don't hog the squat rack. There are people who actually want to squat![/quote]

Resting between sets is not hogging.  That's my biggest pet peeve.  People acting like time between sets doesnt matter

Many times, I'll sit and wait for 20-30 minutes to get a rack.  Once I have that rack, I'm using it for my whole 10x10 squat workout.  Anyone and everyone is welcome to work in.  [/quote]

DP and look, it's totally your right to use the squat rack for your 10 x 10.  It's also completely understandable that people find it annoying that you're on it for, what, an hour?  For one exercise?  Working in on squat racks is a complete PITA, especially when one person has very specific rest times.[/quote]

no one really wants you working into their squat sets unless they are taking 15 min breaks. Unless the 2 people are the same height and lifting around the same weight. Otherwise it would take way to long to readjust everything between users. It's not like a piece of equipment where you just need to move a few pins. [/quote]

I squat with my work-out partner at least once a week, sometimes twice a week.  We are usually squatting a difference of about 100-125 lbs.  We just change the weights.  It's really not that hard[/quote]
