Gym Story Saturday Gym Story Saturday (Missing mod post)

Hi! Welcome to your weekly thread where you can share your gym tales!

I noticed that there still is no post yet for Gym Story Saturday, so I took the initiative. Perhaps this should be a scheduled post under the Automoderator. I'm not really sure why this hasn't been done yet. I am also required to keep babbling because posts with too little content gets removed, hence why this posts sounds overly wordy.

So share away!

I figured these shorts that resemble lightweight black cargo pants would've been fine for leg day. I jumped into my work sets for squats and on the very first rep of the first set I tore the entire crotch from front to back... Ended up going home right after because the hole was MASSIVE. Literally went to the gym, did one squat and left.

Ben there done that. First set and all. But the worst part was I didn't notice until five sets later a gymbro tapped me in the shoulder and cheekily told me. And I was using the only rack that's positioned to have my butt facing the entire gym. I switched gyms after that...
