and they shouldve made it heavier. This workout was a wash anyways. I wore a under armour t shirt and i was sliding on the bench, never again. so needless to say i wasnt wore down form my bench routine. SO the machines paid the price. I use stack and a 45 pound plate but the plate wouldnt fit. So im pissed, I felt SO STRONG. The time you KNOW your gonna have a killer workout. And slide FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKK...I knew it in my warmups but i just didnt have a different t shirt. Anyway I hit my 4th rep on the pec dec and SNAP the cord breaks and the stack goes flying down. I got up and went to cables to finish my set. I was hitting my reps like a maniac crushing the shit out of it. But when was the last time you saw a pec dec break? I never have either, also my gf hit a PR in the bench 100lbs raw. All i was thinking was just keep pushing as the bar crept up. Hey its more than Nsnyc can do combined! So once again I try to get a workout at this gym and its one big cluster fuck.
Nice work, bud! Hehe
Well, I really enjoyed bending a bar at a commercial gym:), but breaking something would be great..."Yeah, I am the one who is stronger than the metal on that machine!" Erm
Bent a bar or 2 but never broke a machine. It may happen yet ,the gym I train at is NOT a hardcore gym at all lots of fancy pansy machines....lol. Its fun to do box squats or heavy partial deads there everyone looks at you like you're a freak!!!
Nice job. It's too bad most of the stuff in our gym is already broken from the fucking animals I train with. Prisoners would riot if they had to workout in our gym.
My personal favorite is a donkey calf rasie machine that a welder built. It was made very well, he was a avid lifter and a good welder. He built or modified all his stuff, so it was extra strong. I broke that and didnt even know it till he told me about it. He was cool about it too, but im not gonna lie breaking stuff is fun!!!
The owner at my gym is so f###ing cheap that the cables used to break all the time. He would not replace them they were obviously worn.
