Horse mats. These guys don't ship, but you get the idea.

Problem is, looks like I won't be able to do anything with my right arm for abit.

Might still be able to do curls and tricep pull downs.
I guess it'll just be cardio until the it heals.

Any ideas on timeline? Couple of days? Couple of weeks?

my gym has 6 or 7 brand new bars like 6-8 months old. within a 3 week period in the fall, 4 of them got bent. like 1" out of true bent. jackasses doing power shrugs and rack pulls from well above the knee and slamming them down basically bouncing them up and down on the squat rack rails. i even wrote a letter about it on the comment card thing in my gym. its horse shit.


oh he mad.jpg

mind telling me where you picked em up? Do you use them for deadlifts too? I'd think it'd be more beneficial to deadlift with a flat surface so you can drive onto your heels.

that's a killer deal. Is the shoe size true to size? or do they fit slightly bigger/smaller

gotcha... so by everything, do you mean plyos and cardio as well, or purely lifting?

I'm debating between these or a pair of minimalist shoes...

Chucks don't work for me. For some reason, it feels really flimsy when I lift.. tried it once and almost tripped over while doing squats. Tempted to give vibram 5 or addidas minimalist shoes a try
