Fainted while shadowing in surgery a few years back lol. Was super embarassing. Fell over and knocked over the tourniquet. Almost landed on the patient.

I'm prone to fainting. Always had a bit of a medical phobia. Only recently could get through blood tests. Since lifting I noticed I get that light headed feeling on my last few reps.

correct just started lifting. Was just curious how to avoid such a situation, but I suppose it doesn't matter at this moment since I'm lifting not heavy yet.

DYEL?

One of my teammates fainted at his last meet on his second attempt squat.  He got shot out like a cannonball from underneath the bar luckily.

Man gyms around here suck. Girlfriend won't go to my gym because she had a bad experience with them, and most of the others don't have barbell free weights, wtf is up with that (liability, I know, just sayin)?

Exciting times at the gym. There is this guy whose kind of famous around Cambridge. He's a black albino who raps to himself really loudly pretty much all the time and whenever he flags a bus he gets in the middle of the road and starts break dancing. I always assumed he was my age, but he's like 32 and has a kid. He's also banned from every drinking establishment around Cambridge because he's a drug dealer........AND TODAY HE JOINED MY GYM. I am so excited to see what lolz he can bring.


Paused box squats with 160kg for 4x2 then a single. Is a PR, but I wanted 5x2 so still feels bad man and it means I can't progress to 162.5kg on Friday. Didn't do pull ups, felt really tired even body weight ones felt a bit hard, may need to cut down on the volume.


Also deadlifted for the first time in ages like january probably, someone left 140kg on a bar so I did a few reps with it. Felt so good, may need to add them back into my workout just for dat feel.

YEAH....So about that, we're going to require photographic and video evidence to authenticate your claim...

Fuji, how high is the box?

Maybe and inch below parallel. Oly lifting, not even once.
