I think I heard the dumbest comments today. I got asked by two different people in the gym today, while I was in the bathroom, if I could get them steroids. I mean what the fuck is wrong with people? lol.
I think I’m going to stop wearing cut offs, deez niggas are crazy.
On top of that a VERY skinny guy came up to me while I was doing pushdowns and asked me what I thought of some bullshit called Equistane? Dude’s my height and he said 170 lbs and is already taking a prohormone, come on people…

I don’t bench with my feet in the air but ive seen 2 amateur bodybuilders do it at my gym… Ive asked them and their explanation was the same. “Don’t want to cheat” Apparently they feel their chest working more when they have their feet in the air.

he then explained to me that he wants to “look like brad pitt in fight club” (sigh)
I think it should be legal to kill any guy who uses that phrase. It’s always some 140 lb, soaking wet skinny fat guy benching 95 lbs who says that.[/quote]
It should be legal to kill anyone who has the time to build sites like http://www.bradpittworkout.com/
(Yes the site actually exists) that actually enables people to follow the actor’s “workouts”.
“My forearms are jacked… now that I started playing the Viola again.”
As I’m warming up on squats(225) these guys doing preacher curls keep looking at me and start talking about how much they max, around 285. I continue to warm up, 275,315,365. I’m loading 405 and one guy says to his buddy “Legs don’t really matter, all you really need is a pair of good calves anyway”. The stupid shit at a university gym is endless.
In all fairness the only reason that it’s stupid to put your feet in the air when benching is that it puts you at risk for falling to the side. Yes, it will also prevent you from cheating, but it could end all future gym endeavors as well. Also keep in mind though that using your feet to drive up a bit is ok as long as the hips do not raise.
First one:
My appendix was about to rupture (I didn’t know), but went to the ER to be safe…
I strip down and the doc says “You look like you work out, you probably pulled a muscle”
Me: Are you psychic?
Doc: (laughs) no, why?
Me: Cause you diagnosed me without even really looking at me
Doc: (laughs) if it lasts longer than a day or two, come back
I leave, my appendix ruptures the next day - great diagnosis… /sigh
Second one:
I go in to see my GP for a physical (needed it for a job)
I strip down and he says “Are you on steroids?”
Me: No, why?
Doc: Cause all guys that are built are on steroids
(I don’t say anything)
After the exam he says “Tell the truth, are you on steroids”
Me: No
Doc: Seriously, I need to know what you’re taking
Me: I’m not taking steroids
Doc: Well good then, steroids are bad for you
Third one:
This one is my living hell…
WIFE: When are you going to stop taking all those supplements? You know they’re bad for you"

A friend and I used to do conditioning workouts in his driveway. Bring out two barbells along with a sled and a bunch of plates and do some circuits. So we’re in the middle of doing overhead presses when I see this old lady pull into her driveway next door, get out, look over at us and get the, “I’m about to say something really stupid” look on her face.
She walks right up to my friend and says, “What are you boys building over here?” He looks her in the eye and responds in dead-pan: “Muscle.” I almost dropped the bar on my head.
Side note: WTF could she possibly have thought we were building while doing overhead presses? Like maybe a house but we decided to start with the roof? I’m still trying to figure this one out. [/quote]
My manager says to me, “eat more carbs and not protein carbs will build muscle & too much protein will turn to fat” ohboy the shit we have to deal with.

Yeah that’s pretty stupid…your body does absorb warm water at fater rate than cold water, but that’s about it…wow
