I’m in therapy and all that and am working on it. Lots of stuff from childhood most likely. What happened was recently i was at the gym and doing side raises behind this l shaped non-adjustable bench. I was one set in and just finished the set. This dude walks up to me and asks me how many more sets i have. I said probably two, but i did see a wide open adjustable bench next to me so i just said i can scoot over and stand behind that since i’m not really using the bench, just standing behind it. There was another L shaped bench open down the line and of course the adjustable bench right next to me. I wish i would have just pointed those out and see if he could have used those, or just taken a step back from the bench he wanted to use (the one right in front of me), but instead i decided to scoot over. Adding insult to injury, i reached down to pick up the dumbbells and felt a pain on my lower hip area on one side, effectively stopping the workout for the day. I’ve been a bit annoyed at myself for not just thinking for a moment and pointing out the open benches or just taking a step back to give more space. Do you guys sometimes get this feeling? Am I insane for thinking this way? Just wanted to get some thoughts on this. submitted by /u/InfiniteJackfruit5
