CFFB 091012

ASWOD
3x5 squat @ 270

DWOD
5 rounds, rest as needed:
5 push press @ 185 (scaled to 135)
max reps dips

Got 19-13-15-13-8. 

After the first round I'm sitting next to the power cage and these two toolbags come over carrying a bench and just start moving the pins around and taking the plates off the bar.  With me sitting right there clearly using the apparatus.  Turns out they wanted to box squat (95 lbs and 135 lbs respectively).  Their discussion in between their sets was focused on bodyfat percentages and supplements.  I was hating my life having to listen to their ignorance.  The one dudes knees couldnt have been more than 3" apart at the "bottom" of his box squat.  I've never wanted to see an ACL snap more than in those moments.  Usually this stuff doesnt bother me, 95% of the people in the gym are doing stupid exercises IMO anyway, but these guys were just rude, no etiquette, and clearly had no idea what they were doing.  The encouragement they were giving each other on 3x10 box squats was ridiculous.  "3 more bro.  Think light.  You got it.  It's money.  Money, in the bank bro."  I shit you not.  Non stop.  The whole time they were lifting.  /rant
