Actually, that's exactly what I do. Set it down ever so gently, while trembling all over and very red in the face. Normally, I can't even stand up for half a minute after a set of deadlifts.

i hate it when people throw puny weight dumbell like they are so elite. although it motivates me to work very hard to show that man, even I don't throw weight, my body can be like brad pitt or Mark Wahlberg. LOL I just know actors. BTW I start alone, then slowly the gym mate become my friends

The gym is padded. Dropping weights doesn't makes a huge bang. It just goes 'dom'.

I never bothered about letting the bar go down real softly for the deadlift. I just put it down as usual. Sometimes there's a clang, sometimes a soft knock. It doesn't seem to bother anyone... because there's no one around. Paiseh paiseh X^D

When I was in university, I would occasionally make rough appointments with a friend to meet in the gym. We don't workout together; he does his stuff, I do mine. But it's really enjoyable to have a person you know in the gym with you. We do talk between sets. So, yeah, I totally understand the attraction of having a gym buddy.

Why not make friends with regulars at the gym?

I've found relying on a friend who isn't as motivated or dedicated as you is dangerous, as his lax attitude can rub off on you.

true. if u see ur friend doesn't go, u might not want to go. worse, he persuades u not to go!

initially, i thought i'll be bored going alone and was seeking friend. now i'm quite happy being alone. there's a gym which has a number of malaysians and heard they are quite noisy and annoy the patrons there. after a few months, they rarely go. it's called hangat-hangat tahi ayam.

it's all mind over matter. when u see changes in urself and people praised on your changes, u'll be motivated to go even if u are alone.
