    Well then I suggest showing up later and leaving earlier. Sounds like 5-6 hours is passed the point of positive marginal return to staying at the club. I really don't understand the staying till 5-6am thing anyway, by 3:30am most nights the headliner is off and more than half the crowd has left. If you can't find a girl to say "Hey want to grab some food?" or "Hey I've got a wonderful view from my room upstairs" to by that point then you are probably better off saving your energy for the next day.
    haha yeah, the reason why i stay so long is because i want to take home a girl. Especially since i've already spent thousands on hotels/flights/pre-sales/etc so why not go out hard?

    i get your point, but "saying it" vs "doing it" are two totally different things.

    i'm just speaking from experience man. This is why i avoid Hakkasan and Omnia and favor XS more, bcuz of their strict no sit policy.

      4-5 hrs standing in nothing. 12 hrs at a festival for 3 days straight is a hard graft.
      its not just standing, i also walk around, talk to chicks, hit up the dance floor, etc

      I get your guys' point to "stop complaining" and "tough it out" but have you guys ACTUALLy stood for 5 hours straight at a club? it gets really painful/unpleasant especially sicne some clubs are notorious for their no-seat policy.

      this is what ppl with bottle service have, REAL ESTATE to sit and have other girls sit in said real estate.

        yeah, i had a few blisters on my feet when i went to the club last time i went.

        the pain adds up over time for some reason.

        anyway, i've been training my cardio pretty hard and purchased comfortable dress shoes to mitigate the pain of standing/walking around allday

          for me the shoes i'm wearing are really the determining factor as to if my feet hurt or not.

            Yes, my girlfriend and I are up on our feet for around 4 hours straight, multiple nights in a row, never sitting down once at a club. Most of that time we'll spend on the dance floor dancing, and then the rest of the time walking to get drinks. Sometimes if we are on a longer trip I'll pop a couple aspirin tabs right before we get into the club, since you are right that the pain is somewhat cumulative. If you are drinking enough though 4 hours should be perfectly fine feeling.

            If you are getting blisters then you are right to get new shoes. A well-fitting, quality pair of shoes shouldn't give you blisters, and actually breaking them in before a trip has a big impact on how comfortable you'll end up being. We both make sure to wear shoes that are well designed and already broken in, and have been doing GA for 50+ nights, all 4+ hours long. If we can do it, anyone can.

              Depends on the person, obv. For maxutil, GA is great and more than suffices. For others, the benefit of sitting down, having a cordoned off area to themselves, and the ability to pull girls into that cordoned off area is a big enough draw to throw down for tables & bottles.

              I've done both GA & bottles and have enjoyed myself doing either. IMO, GA might work a bit better with fewer people involved (less having to herd people together). But it's not a deal-breaker to pull girls if you don't have a table - you just don't get them delivered to you, nor do you have the line "I have a table, want to come drink with us".

              The past few times I've done GA I've been in around 11, out around 3 or 4, so yeah - it's about 4-5 hours on my feet. If something (or someone) distracts you enough, you'll party through the pain.

                Next time get the USA segways to the club, seriously... if you have pain and don't want to continue head home... or get bottle service and sit down at the table. Over here in the Netherlands people just go out and dance, doesn't matter if its from 12-6 or full day festivals (3 days x 12 hrs).

                    1. Leaving EastCoast speechless is a major accomplishment, you should be proud!

                    2. Leaving EastCoast speechless is also somewhat disappointing, we we expecting big things outta him in this thread.

                    3. You wanna share the nightclub workout plan with the group?

                        EVERY nightclub in Vegas has FREE seating for GA. You really need to learn the ins and outs of Vegas nightclubs. When my feet start to hurt, I just take a break, and relax in my VIP stall.

                          Make sure you do your calf raises, they really help for feet pain when standing.

                          I'd recommend standing, seated and donkey calf raises for the best results. Try 4 sets of 12 reps on each.

                              This is the funniest shit I've read on here in a while.. cardio, calf raises, and private VIP stalls.. nice. I also love that you guys are bitching about shoes. Try heels. Cept I just take them off. Yes I'm one of those.
