New equipment at my gym

[johnnydoe]

I had to take off for a week due to a hurt wrist. When I went back to the gym they had this new thing that looks like the jungle gym of doom in our functional training section. Just thought i would share. Ive never seen one piece of equipment with this many functions. Even has like uneven monkey bars that goes through it. Its not my style but some of you american ninja warrior types might want to check it out, it has all that type of stuff on it. Also its a lot bigger than it looks in pic. I cant figure out what all the stuff is for. One corner has a trampoline on an angle with like some floor boards at angles around it, even one above it???

Does anyone know anything about this? Im curious about what the trampoline thing is for. The whole time i was there nobody used it.

There is one at my gym. I think it is some sort of circuit trainer area or something. I don't use it. So I really don't know. The one I see has battle ropes, box jump platform, and some other stuff. As for the trampoline. I see people bouncing medicines balls off it. Some sort of core training I assume.

Looks like a transformer

Yeah its really not my style and i probably wont use it. It looks pretty cool though. My gym is stupid, they spend no telling how much on this huge contraption when I would have been happier if they used that space for deadlifting or more benches.

The trampoline for medicine balls kinda makes since. When I was in high school the old gym teacher used to let us play dodge ball with medicine balls....best teacher ever...can't believe they forced retirement on him for being senile, fuckin liberals

Oh, so its not for having my PT bounce on my cock then. Balls, she'll be so mad when I tell her.

My gym has one too and called Synrgy360 by Life Fitness. Pretty cool setup.

It's supposed to be more Ab work. so that way, people without friends, can still do the sit up ball toss thing that stay at home moms do together while spilling the morning tea.

The trampoline itself makes a great listener.

Thats what i was thinking. They could fit 2 power racks there. At least itll give the highschool kids something to play with so they'll stay off my benches.

But can it care?

 

[johnnydoe]

But can it care?

The trampoline seemed to be very sympathetic and a good listener. Maybe i'll start talking to it about my problems instead of going to my psychiatrist. Or...maybe I should talk to my psychiatrist about me talking about my problems with a trampoline.

Functional training is extremely popular and gym space is always wanted so they are making cable machines that incorporate function as well. The Cybex version is actually better and better built. I would actually use this machine for the cables and pull ups. You should be able to hit every angle on those cables.

No doubt. We already have a bunch of machines with cables and accessories and some pull up bars. I use the cable machines regularly. Im not too big on pull ups, i should probably work some into my routine though.

No replacement for pull ups in my opinion.

I do pull downs with a wide grip bar on a machine. Every once in a while i'll hit a couple sets on the pull up bar but not often. I'm might put pull ups in my routine. What does your pull up routine look like and what kind of grip do you use on them?

I'd kill, well hurt someone bad, for something like that at the gym I go to, which is the only one close. I'll get a pic tomorrow of the new "equipment" they just got. Lol

Lol. They do have a lot of expensive stuff at my gym and its pretty well equipped but it is missing some stuff that I would really like to have while at the same time it has a lot of stuff i dont use. There are a lot of people that goes there though so im sure they will get plenty of use out of this new thing they got. I just think it was unnecessary since we have machines that does all that stuff. All we gained was monkey bars and pegs going down one side to climb on.............oh and a trampoline to talk to.
