my gym is gayassfaggot assthey don't want me to deadlift off the floor so I have to put gymnastic pussy pads that lift the bar like 3 inches or so off the groundis this ok, or am I gimping my shit somehowas an aside I have short arms and a long torso so this actually helps me get into position way easier but I'm wondering if it's doing something I'm unaware ofshould I bring in a 4 inch thick block of wood and stand on it or something, what doit's anytime fitness btw, it's actually the least faggotass gym in my area because it has 2 squat racks
>>75121725Does your gym have step platforms? I don't know what weight they can handle but might work
>>75121741yea, I'm worried though because I'm a fat fuck literally 315 lolI'm just doing starting strength from the beginning I did 175x5 todayI swear those fucks are just going to bend under my weight, lolI used them once but I'd feel way better standing on a big ass piece of wood instead
>>75121751Obviously the wood will work. I was trying to think of solution that didn't look as fucking goofy
>>75121765I'm thinking of how goofy I'm going to look when that plastic bends when I'm lifting 350 and my fucking knee twists and tears my shit up
>>75121725Rip is a based red lobster calling out the covid tyrants.
>>75121725>should I bring in a 4 inch thick block of wood and stand on ityes
