Gym Rats: Don't Be That Guy!

I give the old man thumbs-up for making the approach… Now it was bad timing on his part, had he waited for you to finish he would have had better chances at starting a short conversation.

There is absolutely no reason your ass needs to be hanging out of those shorts. It makes for a good video to show the boys at T-Nation, but it is inappropriate to be out like that in public unless you are doing it for the soul purpose of getting hit on.

At my college gym, I see girls dressed slutty like that all the time get hit on by guys, and then I hear them complain to their friends about it.

Makes no fucking sense to me.

If this post sounded sarcastic, it wasn’t.

When woman “gets mad” at you for checking them out that is called: A SHIT TEST

IF you apologize or get mad in return you have FAILED her shit test.

The whole thing is not supposed to be logical. It is supposed to make Beta-boys break (apologize, stutter, look down, get mad, etc), that way the girl knows to NOT go out with him.

BTW, he’s 71, I re-newed his membership at the gym a few months back. I’m pretty sure the guy was having a senior moment. Either that, or there is a whole new age demographic for me that I’ve yet to tap. Damn, I bet he gets a good discount for the early bird suppers too!

Typical PLers, always thinking about food.

^^^^ hehehehe^^^^
you betya!

I love how DOH refuses to believe that that old fuck wasn’t hitting on db.

The “If you wear shit that exposes skin to the gym you’re asking for conversations” logic would mean that every time i drop my pants to lift in just my singlet I should expect the girls to interrupt me mid rep for the sole reason that the pressed hammer is on site. If you’re lifting hard and training with some focus and not fucking around you can wear what ever you damn well please. It is obv’s that my man DOH has not been out of his local area in a minute or two. Go work out in Australia or europe. you got guys and girls working out in speedos for fuck sake.

Get some context amte.

In other news: I’m the screamer.

Grrr.

How about in the warm up room when some of us are in our underwear and the occasional person is just plain old bare assed while we crawl into our gear? Surprisingly no one has hit on me then. Perhaps he lacks focus.

The worst problem at my gym are “drippers” People here sweat like crazy here and they dont even wipe down afte theyre done. Fucking gross. Damn Houston humidity.

I go sleeveless all the time. Love my wife beaters cuz they show off my traps and arms. If I could go shirtless I would. The only reason I work out at a gym is because they have more mirrors than my garage. Am I conceited? No not at all. Ok maybe just a little.

People that constantly check their mobile phones annoy me the most. I think some of them wear lifting gloves just to avoid getting callouses from using the keypad.[/quote]

I’m that guy; except I’m checking my phone to look at the program I have saved on there, and tapping in my numbers with the keypad - to a spectator I probably look like I’m texting my bros between lifts.

I don’t wear gloves though, I love my callouses.

Would you try and initiate conversation when someone is literally under the bar ready to go?[/quote]

No. That was ridiculous.

And I have no issue with your choice of shorts as long as you don’t mind me glancing over between my sets. :slight_smile:

You made sure your top matched the bands, didn’t you?

“Wait I got one more set and you can work it.”

haha that Kevin guy is the man. Hes kinda like a buff nerd; a Rick Moranis type. Man if I were making a comedy film I’d hire Kevin, Ricky and Zig. We’d be big bro, forget The Hangover.

Not only that, but she keeps deleting the tasteful comments and form critique I try to leave in the comment section.

Oh well…

I don’t have time to delete comments, I just ban people who leave stupid ones.
Either you like my ass or I remind you of your grandmother. Or you like your grandmother’s ass.

Great post. You are correct, of course. There is no legitimate reason for a woman to dress that way.

How old are you all? I have a vision of you sitting around with pursed lips and disapproving looks like a bunch of old ladies. Maybe all you old ‘Mary’s’ should put your knitting back in your purses and get a grip.
