    What is this guy in the weight room trying to accomplish?
    He comes in, loads up a barbell, lifts it straight over his head with both arms while a staff member times him. He grunts and yells as long as he can hold it. Then after putting it down, he unloads the bar, all the while yelling, and leaves the weight room. End of workout. This happens on a regular basis.
    ???

    Oh I nearly died laughing at this. Such an apropriate day to post it. It sounds like me in the kitchen last night replacing the range hood.
    Being short it was a full arm extension job, not heavy, but keeping my arms over head both supporting and unscrewing then screwing had me making noises that scared the cat away.

    Maybe he is training for a kitchen renovation.

    Cheers, h.

    Crossfit training? I've seen partner competitions where one had to static hold an overhead press while the other did deads and then the person doing deads had to hold the OHP while the other then did deads... or just some competition the gym or some of it's members are competing in.
