But we do have a couple, who bring their giant bags, sprawl them all over the gym floor (both of them) and you need to watch out and step around them, etc...



Exactly

Saw a guy the other day with a bag of gear. He did lat pulls with the hammer strength machine and used bar straps FOR 140 lbs!!!!!!!!!! (Had on a weight belt too.) I am an old skinny weak guy and can do deadlifts almost 2x my body weight with no straps or belt.

He was a fair sized dude. He probably has the grip strength of a 9 year old Girl Scout who's only strength training is handing over boxes of cookies.

Use gear when it is necessary, not because you own it.

That always kills me. Don't use the equipment until you absolutely need it. Why not build forearms and core while working back?

If it doesn't scare you, it is not heavy enough.

Filled with items that get used, no problem. When I competed I had a bag with belt, wraps, chalk and such. I don't train in the same way anylonge so it's not needed.
However there is this guy. He keeps his stare straight and walks timidly. He's decked out head to toe in The Rock's no bull brand. He has a party pitcher size water bottle with motivational phrasing, and he has a gym bag large enough, he could backpack around the fuckin world in. Never so much as unzips it. Problematic.

LOL, not to poke fun at people.  But I think there are dudes like that in every gym.  I never want to mock or poke fun at others but every gym i stay at long enough you will see someone in there like you explained.

Yeah, I'm mostly...mostly kidding. The particular guy I'm talking about is a nice enough guy.
That said, last night he showed up, in his usual No Bull shoes, N.B. socks, N.B. leggings with shorts over and a N.B. sleeveless. THis time, he had some new ink. I kid you not, it's the start of what is going to end up being the exact tribal art The Rock has on his arm/pec.

I bring my bag and has belt strap chalk knee wraps and even 1.25lb plates when I need it. I also bought bunch of tbar handle, kicking press handle and donated to the gym. The guy who owns the gym is a great guy so I don't mind sharing Mt stuff
