in the gym i goto the machines and free weights are in seperate rooms and all the people that use the free weights are massive and i would feel stupid going in there and struggling with small weights in front of them while they are there lifting huge amounts.
i know this sounds stupid but as i have said i am new to this gym and dont know anyone, therefore wouldnt feel comfortable.

F*ck them bro, you are there for you!!!Originally Posted by InTraining
Everyone has to begin somewhere, but if you are letting "bigger guys" make you use machines because you feel uncomfortable, you are not giving yourself any kind of chance to really/truly progress and eventually BE ONE OF THOSE BIG GUYS.
Do it for you, f*ck them. Honestly, if I saw you using machines only in that other room and that's all you ever used, that would draw more attention to you in us saying, "he should use some free weights sometime and then maybe he'd really grow". Then once you were using the free weights, I'd look at you like, "well, at least he understands what it takes to truly change/progress, not like those idiots who use machines. Props to him no matter what his size".
Your call, but never let others prohibit you from utilizing what is better, especially when you know it's better.

Just go for it Bro! I know that when I first started I was a little nervous too, but I just jumped in there and started lifting.
Just jump on in there and the guys will probably even help you out.
