True story… One of FOBs (Forward Operating Base) I was temporarily stationed at in Afghanistan had a nice little gym that I used to use. Well, one of the guys that used to frequent the gym NEVER showed up without his pack of cigarettes. He used to step out the door, light a cigarette, put it down, come in, do a set, go back out, take a few drags, come back in, do a set, back out… the entire time… WTF?
I see guys and gals come into the gym all the time and put the cig out before they get to the door. WTF?[/quote]
Dude, it’s an addiction, and they may be at the gym helping them try and quit.
Yeah it sucks because they stink and blah blah blah, but it fucking sucks being addicted to shit too man.
one day in the gym i was in the locker room when i over heard an abercombie bunny say he was doing a powerlifitng day. i dont no about anyone else but that doesnt make sense to me, so if anyone asked him what he was training for this day he would say powerlifting and every other day of the year he just wants “Haawwwt abzzz”…i really wanted to punch him and throw him in to the pool, i took my frustration out on the barbell instead.
Ok, new one. From a few weeks ago. After lifting I was doing a little cardio session and I see some cardio queens on their cell phones while on the ellipticals. This is actually normal. But then I notice on the â??back extensionâ?? machine a woman doing her sets while reading a magazine at the same time. I mentioned this to the one trainer that I usually see there. He tells me heâ??s seen people holding their cell phone with their shoulder while doing lat pulldowns.
Me- How many sets you have left? (CURLING IN POWER RACK)
Asian Bro- A couple
Me- Can I have the rack? If you need me to I’ll deadlift you the bar between sets.
Asian- …Take it.
I think my absolute favorite was the time I was told that I should choose between deadlifts and squats. Apparently the bro-douche-tard that told me this thought that one “power move” was enough, and it ‘really doesn’t help your abs’.
I was a little pissed. I don’t go to compete, but I have lifted more, strtched farther, jumped higher, and run faster than this chin curtained, fake tanned, fucktard. So before my nect set of whichever one I was doing (it’s been awhile), I turned to him and showed my abs. He says something along the lines of “Oh. Then you’re good, huh?” and walks away. I have never had another problem with him, other than being asked about splits, supps, etc.
‘‘I don’t wanna be TOO BIG so I’ll just stick to machine weights’’
‘‘I know how to squat!’’ person proceeds to have starting position of bar above his head and holds bar behind neck in some weird fashion and does quarter squats
‘‘JESUS FUCK THAT’S A LOT OF WEIGHT’’ random n00b looking at a 110kg deadlift
A kid at my high school used to tell under classmen that
Creatines illegal
Protien powder doesn’t help and can cause cancer if you wait more than ten minutes to drink it
And best of all…
“I don’t lift, I curl”
The best part is that most kids a year younger than him and even in our grade believed (Didn’t even question)the bullshit he said,
Not to mention the fact that he was smaller than kids half his age.
there is so much fail and win in this thread, I’m torn between laughing and crying. I wish I could contribute, since I work out at home the only thing that comes to mind was a couple of years back, two brotards were racing each other on the treadmills, one fell flat on his face and was spat back into the smith machine…

Friend 1: Know how freeballing is all kinds of awesome?
Friend 2, Me: Yeah?
Friend 1: Well, since wearing less underwear is better, I got this idea for panties for men. You know, since less clothing around your junk is better, why not just wear panties?
