Topic	People who insist on doing light weight SMPs in the squat rack.
Steve Nick 12/17/17 2:13:35 PM #5:	It's really sad and pathetic to try to shame people for not lifting as much weight as others in a gym. There's no such thing as 'fairly low weight'. Everything is relative to the person's strength. Your implication is that you wouldn't be upset if the person is pressing 180, but because they're pressing 75, that makes it wrong. A squat rack is the safest place for military press, period. You run a greater risk of injury by doing them outside of the squat rack, and you also get less of a workout since so much of your energy is expended on movements other than the actual military press. --- This is my signature. <cite>Steve Nick posted [p:892383620] in People who...
