Quick Robin , to the batcave ! The succulents require watering ! <| sep |> Super heavy fog till about 830 or so . One saw one fly close and of course we missed it . We ' ll try again tomorrow ! <| sep |> ppawesome There ' s only three ponies here with crowns , and I know you aren ' t Luna , and you didn ' t strike me as a Cadence . <| sep |> No I haven ' t could you explain it <| sep |> I once bought a $ 2600 Santa Cruz MTB for $ 800 . The guy owned it for 6 months still had the L size nonlaminated paper sticker on the BB , was moving to Korea and didn ' t want to pay for a storage unit in the US . <| sep |> Oh my Rod ! <| sep |> Like what ? <| sep |> Unfortunately my gym doesn ' t have a proper power rack , but the bench rack has safety pins like thiscompblack . jpg . Like others have said , the idea is that the pins are slightly lower than your chest when you are in lifting position . If you are doing things correctly , you should have your shoulder blades together and your chest puffed up and the safety pins set so that if you relax , loosen your shoulder blades and exhale , the bar will come down just to your chest . Thus , when lifting normally , the bar won ' t come even close to hitting the pins . It ' s true that if you do drop the bar , it will still probably hit your chest but the pins are there to stop it from doing real damage . While not the best form , this video 35 s demonstrates the basic idea . As you can see , the bar doesn ' t come even close to the safeties on his successful reps , but when he goes to failure , it safely catches the bar before he gets pinned .
