Best Gym Taunts

Let’s hear them, what are your best taunts you’ve used and had used on you?

Not just any old “you’re so skinny…”
or “I’ve seen better legs on a chair”,

Let’s hear them!

Every time a buddy of mine see’s a guy who’s like over 6’ and under 180lbs, you know the guys who look so gawky with their mouth hanging open.

he says “last time I saw a mouth that big I had a hook in it.”

Isn’t that a classic Caddyshack one?

It was a fairly quiet day in the weight room. One of those guys who only trains his pecs and biceps - you know the type - was there showing a skinny friend of his around. There was me, and this other chick that I don’t know, who had a nice build, and these two yahoos. Then the pecs/biceps guy says “Try to stay out of the way of the big girls” to his buddy.

The big girls!!! What the hell???

I was both flattered and offended at the same time.

I’ve shared this elsewhere before, but it fits here. I asked this question to a guy who was making me wait for a power rack while he finished his curls…

“Are those your legs or are you standing on a chicken?”

I was walking around my gym 3-4 years ago with a big upper body and a poor excuse for legs. Everyone kept complimenting me on how huge I was etc. All they ever asked me was the quickest, easiest and least painful way to get big. Not one of these smucks asked me why I never wore shorts in the gym.

So I finally got my shit together and asked the dude with the biggest legs in the joint if I could please train with him and his PL girlfriend. After getting my ass kicked on leg day for over 2 years and him telling me open and directly what I needed to do, my legs grew and I was actually challenging his PR’s. I will tell you there is nothing like hearing “you fucking pussy, my girl squats more than you?”

I’ve read this here and used it: “There’s a thread hanging off your sleeve. Oh I’m sorry, it’s just your arm.”

Another:
“I don’t see any red (veins in eyes), put on more weight!”

That was a good one…I almost spat my drink all over my computer…at work…

“Come on…a REAL man could do it”.

This works very well coming from a female.

HAHAHA! That’s awesome. I love it when girls are more intense in the weight room than most guys.

Mine is a slight variation on that one…

“Are those your legs or are you riding on a chicken”

I can’t claim credit for this one:

"Just remember, somewhere in China, a little girl is warming up with your max.?

I was working out with a good friend back in college. He asked me to hand him a 10lb DB (I don’t know what exercise he was going to do). So, I picked up the DB between my thumb and pointer finger with my other fingers gingerly sticking up in the air as if I was drinking tea with the Queen of England. I made a big production in handing him the delicate little weight. He said “F-you!” then busted out laughing.

“Dude, I could break your arms off and clean my ears out with them”.

“I crap bigger than you” (From the movie “City Slickers”)

Here’s a good one: but it only works in certain situations.

Ask to work in a set with someone on tricep/leg extensions or something that weight can easily be added to. Don’t ask for a spot. If the guy walks away (like going to get a drink of water), do your set then when you leave, add a shit-load of weight and walk away. The guy comes back thinking “Holy crap”.

That works good for golf too when somebody makes a putt and it stops about half the distance from the cup.
