Then if that wasn’t enough some f*cking guy comes in wearing clogs, and can’t get off the phone. He is also talking about the different girls he is boning. This also happened yesterday with the same guy, same clogs and same phone stories.
Maybe I am just getting old, but these tools make me want to get my own home gym and never enter a public gym again. Oh well had to vent!
how the fuck is that dude boning anyone if he wears clogs? [/quote]
thats what i was thinking

He probably isn’t. In fact he might not even be talking to someone on his phone. He might just be having imaginary really loud obnoxious phone conversations about how much of a “player” he is in order to draw attention to himself.
The slightly queer looking pale 40 year old bald fella who puts his towel on the bench (THE bench press bench) and sits there for awhile rotating his head and stretching his legs out in front of him whilst closing his eyes and breathing deeply - then sits there doing bicep DB curls (My gym is crap with only one proper weights bench). He will then complete his set and stretch every muscle for another 5 minutes before launching into more sitting DB curls.
Or the guy who goes there, grabs two 8kg dumbells and walks around for 45mins trying to chat to every half decent woman there. I once heard him say ‘hey babe’ to some girl who was on the cross trainer who said in return ‘erm… my names Emily’ and he goes ‘sure thing babe’ without a trace of irony…
Or the medium sized dude who gets under the smith machine, starts to bench press and screams on his last rep and drops the weight on his chest until people rush over and pick it back up again. “are you ok mate?” “yeah… i… think so…” breathing heavily while others pat him on his back. Who then adds weight to bar and does exactly the same thing again. One day hes gonna drop the weight for real and nobodys gonna believe him or even give a shit.
Or the guy that keeps boasting how he can now squat 100kg (about 225lbs?) after only having trained for a couple of years (!?) - who - when you see him perform this amazing feat of strength and endurance actually squats so shallow his knees hardly bend. Who then says ‘yeah… its the growth hormes ive been taking, you should get some’
Rope skippers are annoying. Especially when there is an area carved out fo these goofballs and they insist on doing it in the weight room. We were talking about creative ways to injure them last week. I may just have to try some of them out. If I do, I will report back.
Anybody who puts every plate they can find on the leg press or one of those gay squat machines, does about a 3" range of motion and then has a look of accomplishment on their face. Hey buddy, I would bet my mortgage you couldn’t squat 225 for a single full range of motion. How’s that workin’ for ya?
Lastly, there is this skinny backwards hat wearing fuck stick that wallows around on the floor of the squat rack stretching out his back for like half an hour. About a year ago he walked up to the rack, bar is loaded up, my knees are wrapped, straps are up, I am tightening my belt and he proceeds to lay down on the ground in the rack and flop his leg over the pin.
We sent him packing but ever since then I am enraged by the site of him. We will be squatting and he can be seen lurking around waiting for us to finish so he can commence wallowing. I want to tomahawk kick this guy so bad I can’t stand it.
theres this lady at my gym. she has absolutely NO muscle and absolutely NO fat on her body. i could probably fit my thumb and index finger around her arm(no joke) my workouts usually take about an hour and a half, but when i get to the gym, she is doing cardio, and when i leave, she is doing cardio. she usually starts on an elliptical. shes on there for a good 45 minutes, then shes onto the treadmill for about a half hour(about 15 min. of brisk walking and 15 running. after that she hits the stairmaster HARD. she epitimizes the term CARDIO WHORE. not only that, but shes killing herself…

Sounds like she’s got exercise Bulimia. Hopefully she gets help soon.

So then, I was going to bone my girlfriend and she was like “There’s no way.”
Fat guys who wear under armor shirts, and then put cut off t shirts over them to hide their fat gut…
This old dude that does one set of five reps of low weight and has “The Burn” whenever he’s done with a set. “Tehe Burn” means he’s huffing, panting and exhausted like he just squatted 500 and Deadlifted 450 consecutively. Ooohhhhh it pisses me off because it’s loud!
And this “champion” that comes in and lays all over the hamstring leg curl machine. She hardly does anything, I think she’s sleeping there.
The fat dude that smells like a he can’t wash the parts of his body that need washing most.
The dick that asks if he can turn the fan down that you just turned on ‘high’ because you’re sweating your balls off because you’re working hard, but Mr. Turn the Fan Down is cold because doing crunches and side bends doesn’t really make you hot.
The nasty old woman that comes and lays down on her back right in front of you when you’re doing planks so you’re forced to look up her shorts and end up vomiting and never doing planks again.
The nasty old woman that wears strong musk perfume and walks really hard on the stair stepper all the while holding her vagina and when you mention it to the fitness center employee they explain it’s because she has weak bladder control and then your realize the musk smell probably isn’t from perfume.
The guy that you said ‘hi’ to once and now has to talk to you constantly about how he’s lifting weights in the other gym he goes to so that he can free up time for the elliptical in the gym you’re currently in and then screams your name at the top of his lungs whenever you lift anything he thinks is heavy and calls you superman.
^^Hey be nice! That’s the old cougar I’m banging for some side action and side cash!

I never re-rack the weights.
I change the CD player to what ever I want to listen to.
I sing really loud if “Just Got Paid” comes on.
I never wipe down the benches unless I feel like it.
And I fart like a stud horse when I am squatting.

I’m also that guy. Plus I purposely leave dumbells on the bench when doing supersets with another exercise so someone doesn’t jump in and fuck up my rest. Most people at my gym are whusses and can’t easily move the weight if they wanted to.

None of this bothers me, except for the farting. Have some consideration, man. You could cause an injury to the person squatting in the next rack. I would start laughing and lose concentration if the fart is loud, then lose consciousness when the stench comes up.

That is the reason why you set the pins. In case of muscular or fart-induced failure.
This guy who does super heavy cheat curls…grunts really loud…then slams the weight down, walks around while staring at the mirror…then repeats. 5 sets later, he does the same with benching…“ARGH ARGH ARGH :::SLAM:::” gets up…walks around…stares at sweaty girls ass…checks himself out in the mirror…repeats 5 more sets.
Then after benching and curling for 45 minutes…he goes home.
Hes a huge guy with a big belly…Not really fat per se, but hes got semi-cut arms, built chest, big shoulders…and a distended belly. Weird. He never does anything other than benching, curls, the occasional rowing, and thats it.

you wouldn’t happen to wear clogs would you…
The protector of the gym. Who asks if you’re finished with some shit as if to remind you of, reracking your shit. As if he hasnt said it 3 million times.
Because obviously it is unreason able the someone would load a dead lift bar, and then walk away from it, and do squats on the smith.
And go back to it and do some more deadlifts.
No, no no…I’m obviously just a messy lifter.
