Monday, 09.26.11: Gym-spiration
What makes a gym cool isn't the mirrors on the wall, or the equipment on the floor, it is the people that make everything! I found this great clip on youtube of some pretty big fellas lifting big weights. What is great about the video is that you can see that the gym environment is a big player in the success of the lifters. Yelling words of encouragement, pushing each other, and congratulating each other make training so much more fun. The benefits of lifting in this type of environment are not only that you will probably be more succesful in each lift or workout, but you will probably be more consistent in your training and see more results.
Check out this vid from last Monday's thruster workout...it is a little long and is mostly of the lunch and evening classes (sorry morning guys), but you can see some similarities between the two gyms - encouraging each other, congratulating on lifts, and great video commentating.

Is this a randomized controlled trial or an expert opinion? I'm not sure of the *ucken validly of this article.

Thanks for the basement gym footage, Pat. You are right that it's the people that make the gym and I can honestly say I have more fun and work harder at MBS than any other gym I've belonged to. And that started when you were back in the old space (not the OLD old space, but the hangar next to the baseball people.) The encouragement and camaraderie at the WODs is fantastic and I love cheering people on. With all the new people it's getting harder to keep track of names but getting to know everyone is fun, too. And thanks to you, Rich, Leah, and everyone for creating such a supportive yet "take no slacking" atmosphere! And for laughing at us, too. :-)

What's up MBS'ers...Jay, where's the clan of bloggers that keeps this boat afloat.
Seriously, I had to watch that video several times while cutting it, and at first I thought it was just a cool video of people hitting some good lifts, but then I realized it was fun watching everyone else - the people in the background cheering the lifters on. It was gym-spirational!
