The kicker is we have talked workout stuff for a while, her sister is a personal trainer (and a future figure competitor). I was just plain stunned, and a bit annoyed by the comment, as if we were subhuman.
So I was talking with my roommate and his fiance about the new California Family Fitness that is opening up near us, she currently goes to Gold's Gym, the same gym as mine. Well she says she wants to switch, so I ask her why and she says that people at Gold's are too hardcore and a lot of meatheads. WTF?! Does that make me? Like it's a bad thing? It's ok for a girl to want to get slim and tight but not ok for a guy to want to be big?
People hate to be reminded that they’re lazy. People who get results in the gym remind the idiots that they’re not getting them.
Same reason people love to rationalize shit with “oh he’s just on steroids”.

You’re only saying that because you’re on steroids.
subhuman? fuck that shit. were the ones who bring out our human traits. we go in there and bust our fucking ass so that we can have testosterone running through us so we can really live. fuck them. im glad they make these fucking homo gyms to keep them away from us, im only mad when one of those gyms interferes with my gym. i say let them have their circuit training and cardio equipment and their lattees with nutrient boosters. yea man the more whiny people that leave the “hardcore” gyms, the better.
there was this beheamoth (sp) at my gym a week ago, guy had some mental problems, prob been in and out of jail a few times and was just going off, talking to himself/tv and anyone that would listen…but he was a beast. guy was launching sets of 10 with 260+ and i was just imagining what would happen if we were at a different gym, like Planet Gayness or any gym that doesnt segregate the cardio from the weights.
and let me say this, how the fuck do you expect people to behave in a place where the goal is to take a heavy ass weight and lift it again, and again? you think theyre going to walk around saying “Oh, hello tim” no, theyre…we’re… going to be grunting and sweating and maybe even throwing up and inbetween that were going to staring at girls asses and tits left and right because were fucking men and thats what men do.
I agree in principle as long as the HOT upstairs cardio bunnies get to stay. Like having something perty to stare at in between sets.
I can’t believe a gym actually makes stupid rules regarding noises and grunts. Hullo? I am straining the maximum of my capacity… don’t you think maybe I might let out a couple noises?
Though I do hate the fake grunters… but I put them up with people doing Qtr squats then walk away like it was an accomplishment. (Though sadly I fell in this bracket before my T-Nation enlightenment).
What chicks don’t get is, if they hang with us in the weights and we know they are serious they will be taken seriously.

I do that already, except the throwing up part… if I can help it.
