New Pet Peave

Whats with all the friggin TRX bands hanging off all the equipment at the gym. Today all 3 chin up stations where taken with these and well as the cable machines and leg lift area. 6 in total

It not like you can work in with them hanging there and their workouts go on and on and on. I made a comment on the way out that they need a separate area for these but I might as well been talking to the wall. First it was the balls and these. One guy has been working with a PT using these for almost a year and has not gained any size. IMO I don't see the benefit of these over using weight training, just a new fad.

I`m seing them also now. They like to use the squat cages at my gym while doing giant sets of course... Another gadget for these losers to fail over...

bands and chains have their place in training these days but I suspect most peeps don't know how or why to use them

I've got some badly underused gymnastics rings. I should hang them up in the rack on squat days :)

There are a few things you can do with them,midsection stuff.Prefer a set of rings for dips.

Only people who know how to us them should be allow to touch them.

Thankfully, there is a separate area in my gym for those. The trainers there have EVERYONE using them - beginner to whatever. If you can't do a pushup with your own body weight on the floor - how are you supposed to do it with those?
Just my O.

Im sure they serve some purpose but keep them out of the weight room, thats all. The gyms pay $1000 for equipment to attract membership and this becomes a glorified cloths line.
