Last year I was training at the local wellness center while I was in between jobs. Where I live there is a huge South Asian Population. So picture a lot of skinny fat brown guys all doing stupid crap all the time, curls in the squat rack, 3x a week arm workouts, Way too much chest work, none workout their legs, etc.
And they all look the same year after year, haha.
One time I see this skinny brown guy at the preacher curl with a dumbbell in hand, like a 15 pound one, loudly proclaiming to his “Brahs” how “I lift light weight to get ripped!” I just turned to my partner and started laughing…
Or another time at the LA Fitness I now go to; I’m doing chest with my brother and we are just starting on Flat Bench, when this brown guy comes up to our bench and oblivious to the fact that we are there, starts unracking our weight. I’m just like “Umm we are using this.” Shocked, he apologizes and leaves to go do something else. My brother and I finish our sets and go to the chest press machine and he’s using it, I ask him how many sets he has left, he says 3, then chirps in with this gem:
“Funny how that works, you were using my machine, now I’m using yours and you have to wait.”
Oh I’m sorry champ, I didn’t realize that bench had your name on it. Haha
I know this is a light hearted thread, but how is them being Asian or “brown” fucking relevant to any of your story?[/quote]
Strike a nerve much? It’s relevant for the hilarious visual you get. Think Gandhi lifting weights.
Case in point, I was in my gym doing back, sitting at the seated row machine, when this middle aged Indian guy with a nasty looking mustache walks in with his head proudly sticking up in the air, I then look down at what he is wearing: See through fishnet sleeveless shirt.
I honestly wondered what he was trying to pull off by wearing that, especially with a huge gut. One of the most disturbing visuals ever. I then proceeded to laugh out loud and the people next to me started staring.
