    I bring it in to listen to music but don't take calls unless I have to (work). When I do I go outside or in the locker room.

    Look at everybody in the 1974 pic. EVERYBODY is huge. Something lost? (Yes I know who all of those guys are but still ;P)

    Come to think of it, when I go to the gym, everybody isn't all jacked liked in the videos from the 70's and 80's. I mean there are a few guys that are HUGE but most are closer to that pic's "today." It must be that crossfit bullshit. What do the oldtimers here think? Are people on average getting scrawnier at the gym?

    I would not necessarily say scrawnier but yes they are not muscular by any means. You will see the same guys month after month or even year after year who are the say size as before, most lust fat, out of shape.

    To many go to socialize or as in the video are on their phones the whole time and not really working out.

    It was the 80's when I first set foot in a commercial gym. I don't remember it being any different than now. You had groups of huge guys who all lifted together then just as now. Huge mass monsters just aren't that common so seeing a bunch of them together is even less common.
