I'm a member at LA Fitness in Monroeville, PA (Before you puke, let me defend myself by saying I joined for the basketball leagues). About a week ago I saw four guys huddled around the seated curl machine. It was a slow Saturday afternoon at the gym, so it caught my attention. I looked over to see one guy seated, getting ready to lift, another guy in front to "spot" ( I guess ), the third was on his left side coaching him on, and the fourth guy was posted behind the lifter, holding him down as he struggled to complete the lift. His accomplishment was celebrated by a round of high-fives and grunts as the four man team of curlers had a combined lift of roughly 120lbs, which did surpass their cumulative IQs. This is what I get for joining a health club rather than a gym. I hope the seen at my gym can top this.
