8/30/21 Gym Dream :

This dream was quite realistic, other than planet fitness included climbing ropes, a swimming pool, a wrestling mat, and the most villified of things…power racks, barbells, and deadlift platforms.

not to be seen at planet fitness

It was like a good college football weight room was combined with planet fitness, a pool, and wrestling training.

Great place, funny (dreamt) story :

Me, present reality me, was doing chin ups in the various grips you can hit on the assisted chin/dip machine.

I was doing these for variety, the assistance knee pad down (it does adjust down, at least on some models), and pushing the pace.

Running from high rep sets to low rep sets with nearly no rest periods I was down to twos and threes rotating through a few hand positions.

A big dude was making fun of me, he looked quite familiar from real life, making fun of my only doing doubles and triples.

“Okay motherfucker, what we competing on.”

He said to move to the regular pullup bar for a rep out.

Now I’m looking at this dude, thinking “dumbass sees I’m hitting twos and threes, probably can’t do one himself, and wants to lift off on regular grip pullups”.

We walk to the pullup bar, I move the climbing rope out of the way.

“I’d rather do chins.”

He takes no issue with me using chin up grip for the competition.

I hop up.

Perfect form.

Banging them out, getting massive stretch reflex power out of the bottom.

5 reps – easy
10 reps – got the groove
20,30 – flyin
39 – dude interferes with the set, purposefully swinging that climbing rope at me

39 reps.
I dream high rep sets of pullups (chins technically in this dream) on a regular basis.

Persistence & Tenacity
