Squat Strength Standards: 1.5 times your body weight. · Bench Strength Standards: 1.2 times your body weight. · Deadlift Strength Standards: 2 times your body weightas someone who doesn't ever go to the gym and only sticks to functional bodyweight movements, what is like a baseline 'minimum' for most regular exercises??? suppose I do go to a gym, what should I be aiming for (for bench, squats, deadlift, etc etc)?? (I weight a bit over 60kg lol)
Good point but that only really goes as far as upper body strength exercises. Unless you buy a full on machine, you pretty much have to go to the gym to do leg and hamstring exercises. Also I agree with the second part, I don't understand people who do cardio at the gym, you can just go for a run or bike and it would be a lot more wholesome and refreshing out in the sun with fresh air. Thats why I don't do cardio at the gym, just strength. Also I think there is a point to be made, albeit not too significant here, about the value of going to the gym as something to do to get out of the house or it can be a social activity, rather than lifting weights at home. Is it worth the cost just for that reason? No, but still a factor.just go for runs and buy your own weights if you want
gyms don't make sense to me. if you lift weights, it would be more economical to buy your own and if you run or cycle, just do it outside and do it for free in the fresh air?
nice broI’m not even that skinny tbh.
+ BoS during the workout. That’s what I’m doing right now.
yeah isolation exercises usually require machines especially for the legs like you said. But yeah my mum who doesnt care about building muscle just cancelled her gym membership bc all she did was cardio and much better to do it outsideGood point but that only really goes as far as upper body strength exercises.

Gyms putting treadmills and cycling machines in was probably the biggest scam and smartest business move ever.yeah isolation exercises usually require machines especially for the legs like you said.

It sucks too for body builders. Like I’m sure my gym has like 15 treadmills and 20 cycle bikes however there are only ever maximum 5 people using each at any given time. Then there are 8 benches that are always full, making it a hassle to claim one for yourself.Gyms putting treadmills and cycling machines in was probably the biggest scam and smartest business move ever.
okokok ill keep those in mind if I ever step foot into a gym lolSquat Strength Standards: 1.5 times your body weight. · Bench Strength Standards: 1.2 times your body weight. · Deadlift Strength Standards: 2 times your body weight
These should be achieveable which is a good thing and u will already be ahead of the general population by far
ahhh yeah that is true and so annoying.It sucks too for body builders.

Luckily my gym is very small and not busy, only 3 benches but usually there's only one other person using them. I could go from anywhere from 5am - 5pm and there will likely be only 1-3 people in the whole gym. Makes it funny when my friends complain about their gym always being busy having to wait for machines etc.It sucks too for body builders.
