My New Gym

When I moved, I had to find a new gym. Luckily, there's one three blocks from my house, about the same distance as I had before.

But the new gym is a bit like stepping back in time, and not just because of the equipment. People all around me are doing isolation exercises (it's hard to believe people still do so many curls) and one chest exercise after another.

I see far too few leg work and almost no posterior chain work. A full-body workout? Forget it.

In other words, they're doing bodybuilder workouts for the most part. Me, I'm plowing ahead with my full-body workouts because I know they work and make me a better athlete, not a bodybuilder.
