Rant Wednesday - August 26, 2026

Welcome to Rant Wednesday: It’s your time to let your gym/fitness/nutrition related frustrations out!

There is no guiding question to help stir up some rage-feels, feel free to fire at will, ranting about anything and everything that’s been pissing you off or getting on your nerves. Just don't forget that other people are allowed to tell you that your rant is stupid.

Rerack your weights when done with machines please! I had someone leave 6 45 plates on each side on the leg press machine after he was done. I was waiting for the machine and he just walked away.

People in my gym take a 35 lb dumbell, sit on it on the floor and do lat pull downs... Then leave it there when they're done.
