Compliment or Insult: Where’s the Bigger Weight?

Welcome to this edition of my very favorite gym game, Compliment or Insult.

Scene: Aspen Club

Strength Workout: 3-3-3 Deadlift, with the 3rd lift at 245#

Man: staring at me from the cardio deck above the weightroom floor. Possibly from a treadmill.

Burn Workout: 5 Rounds: 5 DL @ 115# / 10 pushups

Man: “Where’s the bigger weight?”

Me: blank stare, panting, three rounds in

Man: “I saw you lifting heavy weight earlier, what is this light weight?”

Me: “Higher volume.”

Man: “Oh, ok.”

Really, sir? Do I come ask you why you slowed down running on the treadmill? Or perhaps why you’re doing a “tricep row” machine when you could bust out some damn pushups and get the same effect?
