It’s an Animal Pak shirt, just like all the advertisements in every magazine.
Nate - His gym etiquette was horrendous, obviously, but take it as a compliment. Your girl is pretty fine, and having guys hit on her just shows you that others think so too. Just make sure everyone knows she’s yours, as I’m sure they already do. Just let it go man, not worth it.
Personally, I don’t talk to anyone in the gym when I’m lifting. I saw this girl, who is not a trainer, training this guy, a newbie, the other day and I almost went nuts on her. There is nothing wrong with a girl training a guy, it’s the way she was doing it. She was wearing no bra, tight tank top and some tight pants. On bench, she would hold the bar the entire time he was doing it and bend over right in his face to spot. It was pathetic. His form was terrible, because she was training him. I wanted to step in, but I didn’t want to be rude, so that made me train even harder.
Nate, i’m not condoning the guys behavior but after seeing your gf’s picture i can understand why. Good God!
Can’t blame the for trying. You’re a lucky man.
Nate,
Alas…one of the pitfalls of dating a true t-vixen…she will inevitably be hit on by what would cupcake say???..fucktards! She is a hottie though. I wouldn’t kick her out of bed for eating crackers…;o)
I’m with many of you in that when I go to the gym, I am there to train NOT to socialize!!! Sure, I will notice a good looking girl, but I am not going to sacrifice my timed rest interval to strike up a conversation. Oh hell, who am I kidding? I can’t even introduce myself to the Applebee’s waitress I have had my eye on for months, what makes me think I would approach a girl in the gym…haha.
Oh, don’t worry, I’m not upset that she got hit on. Like I said, it happens all the time. I’m not the jealous type, so it’s no big deal unless someone takes things too far.
It was just the way he did it. His behavior was piss poor, and no one should do it that way. He used horrible pick-up lines, and his “creepy” behavior weirded out my girl while she was just trying to get her workout on!
Nate: Why don’t hot girls hit on guys at the gym? Because most likely the hot girls are there to train. Hot chicks get enough attention for merely breathing to bother with attempting to generate more at the gym. Gym time is sacred; you know that!
Speaking of pickup scenarios: I was having dinner with my girlfriend last night and some shmoe in skull and crossbones baggy pants and a lime green, cut-out-neck and sleeves Flashdance inspired shirt comes over to me and starts commenting on my legs. Says he recognizes me from somewhere and asks if I work out at my gym. I reply with a very curt “Yes” and promptly turn my back to him and resumed my conversation with my friend. He stood there for a full 6 minutes (she timed it) attempting to break into our conversation. Finally, he left to chase a waitress. Point: Some people just don’t get hints.
You gotta throw in the bbq sauce though man. If Goldie won’t do I’ll have Dr. Dave cut him off from ART. BWAAUGHthe God father lives in pa! Even though I’m German.
Go up to the guy and say, “I am not half as angry about you trying to hit on my girl as I am about telling her the wrong way to train.”
I personally would not get upset over a person being attracted to my girl. A girl is like a car. You want people to see it and be jealous that you own it. They can look, but if they try to steal it, then you can get pissed off. There is a difference between people who are just trying to find out if the car is for sale, and a persona trying to steal it.
Now if anyone got the impression that I am being politically incorrect and referring to women as property, yep, that’s what I meant. ;^)
Mage,
This guy didn’t want to steal the car, he just wanted a little test drive.
After seeing her pic, I can’t blame him…the girl is a cutie!..and she was doing deads…got to like that!
