Muscle Gain Forum

Box jumps! I want to see if my explosiveness has improved.

Honestly, I’d rather compete against my previous numbers than somebody else. If I’m stronger or faster than I was last month, that’s progress in my book.

I’m choosing a 5K time. My goal isn’t anything crazy—I just want to shave a few minutes off my current time while keeping my lifting routine going.

I’d be down for this if the gym had beginner, intermediate, and advanced divisions. That would keep it competitive without making newer members feel like they’re getting thrown into a competition against experienced athletes.
