You're in violation of them.


Back to the topic :

raynx,

I know a couple of girls who do weights at TF Jaya33. Problem is, they lift nowhere near your poundages. As you said, your lifts are heavier than the average Malaysian male, much less most females. They did mention that if you would face the same problem as you would training with the big guys, constant moving of plates.

I think it would be easier for you to get male lifters who move around your poundages as compared to females. The only female at Jaya33 who could potentially partner you would be LadyVanity.

Just had to chip in.

I also come from a martial arts background in three forms, and I don't have a problem with some of the members who join the class. It's all about mentality. There are those who join for cardio reasons, so a crappy knee strike doesn't really matter as the whole point is to get the body running. There are also those whose basic punches are all out of sorts, but that's alright as they're just doing something different rather than jogging for cardio. It's just a different form of cardio for em.

The ones who I do have issues with, are those who join as if it makes them real fighters (I've heard the term MMA being bandied about by a couple ). The basic guard is often too low or too high, and they can't kick without losing balance. But they often huddle around in a group eyeballing other members with a 'mightier than you' look. But then again, I just mind my own business and just get on with my routine.

As a paying member of a gym, I find it annoying too and that's the trend nowadays with commercial gyms. A new launch and there's a big hoo-hah with it coming all over the speakers, not to mention lots of people getting in my way.

Come back to Ultimate and I'll spot you!
