I go to the gym pretty regularly. Over time I've seen people doing things ranging from the downright stupid and ridiculous to downright dangerous. Here you go, I'll share a story. It was back a few years ago in college. This big muscle-head was doing squats with a huge amount of weight. Easily around 400 pounds. So this guy gets done with the squats and begins to re-rack the weights. What's so unique about this story you ask? Well, as it turns out, he took off all of plates from one side of the bar first instead of alternating. I mean this guy must have put the weights alternatively when loading the bar right? Why wouldn't you do the same when re-racking the plates? Needless to say the entire bar came crashing to the ground and everyone just stopped and stared at him.
Anyway, when you're at the gym, make sure you don't repeat that. Also be sure to avoid these workout habits. I'd be interested in hearing gym stories from other people.
