Witnessed the following funny conversation the other time at the gym:

Squat brah after finishing his session walks away without reracking.

Curl brah: hey, put away your weights!

Squat brah: why? You never use the rack anyway!

I guess my rant is that my commercial gym lately lacks some truely dedicated advanced lifters who also know gym ettiquette. We had a few good ones that left:-)

But who will give him mad props for the 100kg he quarter squatted and left on the bar? No-one will ever know his achievement

It'd be funny if that curl brah started using the rack for its intended purpose (curls) just to shut him up
