Grunting is ok if your moving heavy weight, but this grunting with barbie dumbells thing is not cool. It doesn’t really annoy me so much, but it does make the rest of us look bad…
As usual, the answer is found in between both extremes.
Simply mind-boggling.

Why can some guys that are smaller than you manage to lift more than you while not grunting?

LOL, kid I fear you lack the capacity to comprehend my explanation.
Alas I am not the one with the limiting condition.
But don’t worry, keep looking down on people. It makes you look like such an internet badass I can barely type this message due to my awe of your fucking awesome non-grunting self.[/quote]
Wow, kid?
Yea, I will keep looking down on the moronic grunters who grunt on every rep of every set including warm-ups.
I must have hit a nerve, since you are obviously a grunter. Newsflash- grunting doesn’t do anything except make you look like a dipshit. Imagine if 100 people in the gym were all grunting at the same time. How great would that be?

LOL. Your high horse, watch out for the giant pile of shit when you jump off it.
Dude, I am totally conscious. I’m consciously more concerned with moving the weight in the way that works my muscles the best, NOT the noise that may or may not be coming out of my mouth.
I really don’t give a fuck if someone thinks it is rude. Those that think grunting in a fucking WEIGHT ROOM is inappropriate might want to find a new hobby.

You should start screaming at the top of your lungs. I bet that would ensure you can complete each rep.
Maybe I should start barking during each rep.
[/quote]
For me to scream or bark I would have to focus on making that noise, not on lifting the weight.
You won’t ever get it, so I’ll stop here.
And PS. no pics, videos or fake e-stats in your profile? You are not lifting more than me, but certainly are smaller I’m sure.[/quote]
You are completely missing the point, old man.
In case you missed it, read the original post carefully again. There’s a guy at my gym who grunts on every rep of every set.
Heavy weight is relative, and it doesn’t matter how big you are. There is no excuse for grunting on every rep of every set.
Don’t try to justify your dumbass grunting because you think you’re bigger/stronger than me. You probably are bigger and stronger, and I don’t give a shit. 
Again, there’s guys bigger and stronger than you that do not grunt. It’s okay, just focus a little harder and you won’t have to grunt on every rep.

Too bad most of the T-Nation posters are monkeys with horrible reading comprehension and tons of roid-rage.
Stiff-leg deadlifting 135 for about 10 reps does not require grunting/moaning on every fucking rep.

Are they like you, or do they actually look like they lift weights?

Yup, but I suppose I am on a high horse because I used 2 examples. One guy who grunts on every rep, and me, who was lifting twice the weight and not grunting.
I never claimed to be the strongest. I wasn’t bragging about how strong I was. Of course I’m nothing special, and even if I was, I wouldn’t brag. Just saying that grunting from rep 1 on 135lb SLDLs is NOT involuntary.

I see this kid in my gym every other day were 135 is pretty heavy for him, so yeah numbnuts it does require him to grunt you ignorant troll.
I thought heavy weight was relative little man.
I grunt during my rest periods
this one dude in my gym sounds like he is blowing his load while he lifts.
Blowing his load… lol
can you youtube it?

What the fuck is the issue? Why are you so concerned with what someone else is doing? Is his grunting impeding your lifting? If so, maybe you should actually try and be a little more intense…if not then wtf does it matter?
Sometimes I grunt just from grunting.
Grunting has been found to be anabolic by about 68% more.
If your moving heavy ass weights, you can make whatever noise/face/grunt/sound that you want.
If a Bosu ball is involved, tape your mouth shut.

You aren’t making any sense, especially when there’s plenty of guys who can outlift you, me, and the imaginary kid, while not grunting.
This thread got a little out of control. Let me clarify my point, so you get off my nuts. I see nothing wrong with a grunt here and there, but as I said in my original post, it’s annoying when someone is grunting for the sake of grunting, starting from rep 1 of a 10+ rep set. Grunting on warm-ups.
Of course it’s going to annoy most people (except other all-rep grunters like yourself).
Don’t worry, I’m getting some massive headphones.
Now you are insulting my girlfriend? Well post up pictures if you got one.

What I don’t get is why you care what anyone else is doing in the weight room. I vote for the ear plugs if people making noise bothers you. You seem to think it’s not justified to grunt on 135 for every rep. There’s a vid of Dave Tate doing 365 for 30 and he grunts on every rep. Yes, 365 is different than 135. But what if that 135 feels the same to that guy that the 365 feels to Dave Tate?
I think if you’d get those ear phones and just concentrated on what you were doing…the rest would melt away.
As an aside, every time I go out to eat, I find people with horrible table manners that bother me. Do you think I should confront them because they’re slirping their drinks or chewing with their mouth partially open?

Just think, you are starting to get it… I’m impressed that you are actually coming around to see the light.
