The time will soon be at hand. The muscles underneath your skin shake as your mind fires the warning shot. The pace of your heart quickens... your mind draws on the trauma of workouts in past days. That smell... there it is. It rushes up your nostrils. I never quite know how to describe it. The smell of all the elements in the weight room, fear, excitement, pain, defeat, victory. It’s all there for you to breathe in. Walk through the doors. Don’t sit... don’t catch up on current events... don’t fall in love. GET READY FOR TOTAL WAR. breathe in everybody else’s wasted energy. No. Fuck that. Straight up take their energy from them. That’s what I do. I scan the weight room as my energy fades, see the people standing around and doing nothing. See the waste, see the energy in the air that could be yours. Feel the surge of energy as you prepare for war. There is no time to study, Nono time to say sorry, no time for half measures and talk. The nay thing left to do is attack. He said,she said, they said... who gives a fuck? Become what you need to be. Become wrath. Become a slave to your power. Become master of demise, the doomslayer
This has to be Machine. Found this in an old journal. The FORVM is so much less than it was.
Not many like that dude. Him and P Diesel were next level
People were deadlifting in the power racks today. Had to improvise for squats.
The doors were plastered with signs stating you must wear a mask to enter. Came in and no one had a mask on. Not even the volunteers running the place. What a joke. The gym will be closed soon. All it takes is one asshole with the virus to do it. That shit can stay in the air for up to 3 hours. If an infected person comes in and trains for an hour and a half, then everyone who comes in for that 4.5 hour period will be exposed. Just that one day. If he trains 4 days a week that’s 18 hours a week shit is in the gym air. Oh, but everyone is diligently wiping things down in some kind of half assed effort or show.

It's crazy man. At the least wear a bandana. I worked 8-10hr days landscaping and doing tree work in college with a bandana on half the time it's not hard to just wear a mask
Any non-sealed mask is just security theater. Remain calm.
You wear a mask to protect other people, not yourself. If someone is benching they are blowing shit straight up 10 feet into the air. Right into their spotter’s face too. If you have a mask on you only blow shit up about a foot.
No a mask does not protect you from getting the virus, but it everyone was wearing them, everyone would be protected.

If the mask is not sealed and you are worried about aerosolized particulate, then the mask just changes it's direction. It doesn't stop it. Good thing this virus is too chunky to aerosolize. Continue cleaning and don't touch your face.

Its droplets not aerosolized. Your lungs don’t work like a can of spray paint. Ventilators and BiPAP machines will aerosolize. Breathing treatments including home nebulizers for asthma will aerosolize the droplets. A surgical mask will stop @80% of the spread of the virus. More than washing your hands alone will. Why do you have to wash your hands and not touch your face? How did the virus get on the things you touch? Because someone breathed on it or the droplets fell onto what you touched. Again, look at the meat processing plants. Everyone wears gloves, gowns or disposable jump suits, hair covers and either boots or shoe covers, but not masks. They’re all sick.
I’m not a fan of all this and wish it was over. Work is hell. All the shit I have to wear. The risk I take. The risk I take with my family. I have a COVID patient yesterday for 7 hours of my 12 hour shift. Dress up, dress down, dress up, dress down. Michigan isn’t a hot spot anymore but it’s still here. If everyone would follow the guidelines, it would be over faster. There would be no back pedaling on closures and shutdowns. Don’t know how my gym is able to be open legally here. There was a local gym that opened against the governors order and not only did the gym get fined and shut down, but everyone working out in it got fined too. This needs to be over, but magical thinking won’t make it go away anymore than it would give me a 600 lb bench press. You have to do the work. You also need to educate yourself. 600 lb bench presses don’t happen by accident.

If you are worried about this, then you are worried about it becoming aerosolized.
They're counting every person that tests positive as 16 people. They claim an infected person has "on average" came in contact with 15 people so they claim all 16 to be positive. Also, if a person re-tests after they're better and still test positive, they count that as another positive case. It's all fucking bullshit I wish Americans would wake the fuck up!!!!!!!
Stanford, USC and NYU all came out and said there is no difference between the seasonal flu and coronavirus. So why is everyone wearing masks?
It's also been said by CDC officials and other doctors that wearing a mask all day in the heat causes moisture to buildup in the mask and can cause bacterial infections to grow. These infections go straight to the lungs, IRONICALLY that is exactly what the wuhan china coronavirus attacks.....too strange to be coincidence. Even if you clean your mask daily this can still happen.
Just know you're all being fucking lied to. Don't let fear guide your life. The survival rate of the wuhan china coronavirus is 99.36%. That's an official figure. Not many are dying from it and those numbers are ALSO skewed because they're counting any cause of death of someone who tests positive for the wuhan china coronavirus as death by coronavirus. Could die of a heart attack, stroke, another pre-existing condition, etc.
It's aaaaaaaaaall BULLSHIT! A huge power grab for governments across the globe. Don't even get me started on the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation funded vaccine that's coming out......

I work in the emergency room and see it first hand so it’s real. I have 26 years of experience in health care too, so I’m well formed on this kind of stuff. I don’t get my info from Joe Rogan.
I’m curious though, what “power” is it the government is grabbing? The economy is down, people aren’t working which means taxes aren’t being paid, plus they paid out millions in wimpy stimulus checks. People are grouchy in general now.

I understand that the virus is an actual virus (even though it's man made and was released on purpose), but everything I said above is 100% accurate. You can look every bit of it up yourself and I'd suggest NOT msm sources =)
Are you serious? You don't realize governments across this country at the state and local level are completely ripping up the Constitution using this crisis as the reason to do so? Can't buy firearms, can't lift weights at a gym, can't go jogging outside, can't eat out, can't grow a garden, can't play in your backyard, can't go anywhere without a mask and gloves, can't exercise free speech during these sensitive times, etc.
Going to have to go all Wall Street, Michael Douglas on ya, "WAKE UP WOULD YA PAL? If you're not inside than you are outside!"

Forgot to add CAN'T GO TO CHURCH BECAUSE FAITH IS NOT ESSENTIAL! WTF???????
The Constitution gives us freedom of religion. Being Christian or Jewish or whatever hasn’t been outlawed. You can practice your religion, but gatherings aren’t allowed temporarily until this is figured out. And the more people refuse to wear masks, the longer it will take. Just saying. You can watch church services on the web too. That’s not illegal.
The Constitution gives us the right to bear arms. You can’t go to the store and buy one temporarily, but guns are still legal. No one is taking them away from us.
I don’t see how the Constitution is being violated, nor do I see anyone getting “power” from all this. Mostly politicians are making themselves unpopular by protecting us. They’re not telling us what we want to hear. It’s not being sugar coated. The truth hurts and people don’t want the truth. They want business as usual even if it gets them sick, disabled or dead. Again, I have to ask, what power is anyone getting from all this? Elections haven’t been suspended. This isn’t Star Wars. No one has declared themselves emperor. Martial law hasn’t been declared. What power grab is going on? What politician is benefiting from this?

I wish I could take the blue pill and put my head in the sand too but I can't unfortunately =\
All of these "temporary orders" are unconstitutional if you didn't know...the government is not at any time allowed to restrict American's rights.
