My bad gym etiquette or How I will spend my summer vacation

Dude the movie is on HBO or ShowTime for the 25th an. And yes you can order it it is like 30 or 40 bucks

Jared: I see your point about slamming weights and making noise for attention; that is stupid. I was referring to dropping dumbbells and cable machine weights a short distance. I don’t see a problem with the latter, though people who purposely make noise to attract attention deserve and assbeating.

I never drop weights. Even on my oly lifts I let the weight down carefully. Deadlifts? Barely make a noise. This was a one time incident and I let go of the cable about 5 inches from the bottom of the stack, not from the top, so barely a noise was made. Anyway, if you can picture the exercise- seated, hands overhead, cables crossed over, pulling from top of stacks, do a flye movement. If you can let the weight down without making some kind of noise, you’re a genius. Regardless, that was just the final straw. I get heat for many many things, even though I don’t talk, swear, spit, put ALL my weights away, am not rude to anyone or break any other rules, except the no chalk rule and I only use it on heavy deads and I clean up after myself. My point was it was just the last thing I needed to hear.

Keep it down over there - I wasn’t even in the gym that day and you were disrupting my workout! :stuck_out_tongue:
Was this the leather faced, fake titted trainer there? She’s always nice to me, maybe she just had a hard day? But yeah I hear you, I had it out with the manager there over a year ago. He came running over from the front desk to the racks, was upset I was grunting on heavy squats, you would have thought I was screaming like tarzan the way he was acting. Seriously, the noise was a subdued “I got it” to my spotter to let him know I was doing OK. All the guys around me couldn’t believe he was b*tching me out, way outta line.
Oh well, it’s cheap and close.

Mal, yeah, that was her. She always seemed so nice to me before that, but once she opened her mouth, I realized her BF and IQ were one and the same. I really despise fitness bunnies. They don’t understand strength training or anything other than bodybuilding and cardio.
