Ne n coner a fuickex .ay ouse part we .be Member 1425, 4647 posts SQ 340, BP 227.5, DL 335902.5 kgs @ 125kgs UnEq | slimsim said: I've gotta be honest, I was always taught to walk around the bar and not step over it and to this day I tend to keep to this routine, however, I'm not that precious about it that I'd comment about it when watching someones lifts. I was always told the same as well and now I cringe when I see someone do it even tho it makes no difference a lot of the old timers say it | ||
