I saw one of the bigger guys again today. I gather that he arrives about 4:30 PM and leaves around 8 PM. He does a lot of grunting, but I know I pull heavier than he does on back exercises, so I can only imagine he does lots and lots of exercises at mid-range weight to get his muscles as big as they are. For my part, I'm happy with a semi-max-effort, max-hormone-releasing session that lasts under an hour. It was nice not to get crushed today. Stay tuned.
