Finishing each workout with drop sets this week
This week has been pretty cool workout wise. Got the workout finishing daily with two sets of "drop sets" and the pump is good. Yesterday the workout partner and I did Back and Tris and at the end we hammered it home with 5 continuous sets bumping the weight down every set one plate until the muscle was fried. For back, we did low pulley rows on the drop set and close grip bench for tris.
It seemed a lot of eyes were on us there at the gym as we were engaging in this brutality of drops sets. It is not like we were making a lot of racket or anything it is just that I don’t think they get it: We are here to accomplish all that can be done. I know that a lot can be done and I am quite motivated to take this to the edge. So I guess it is my part to play in the daily episode at the gym. To be a motivator, someone who sees the potential in moving the weight.

I love drop sets. And what you’ve experienced I think is pretty normal - do anything unusual and people stare, wondering if you’ve tapped into some deep dark secret

It is kinda of entertaining at times to be a spectical. Some people it motivates, some people are disgusted.
I had an older lady one time tell me with some volume, "It hurts just to watch you!" My response, "Then don’t watch." She walked away obviously unconverted.
