theres hot girls in Ireland?
I have found a Legitimate Guy!
Plus he has awesome tattoos. N. asked him about them and we’re checking out they guys who did them as they’re local.
He’s the only one so far. Is it wrong that I am OK with the fact that there are so many tools at my gym? Since on leg days I have to steal the bar from either the bench or the squat rack in order to deadlift in the Smith machine, thus taking up two spots, it is quite helpful.
At my gym we have “135”
who is a big redhaired broke, covered in tats and makes a helluva noise whenever he does anything. He was benching on the smith machine. He finished his set and says “Yes!, 135”(300lbs) he didn’t realise the bar on the smith machine had no weight so it was actually 115kg (250lbs). “135” all anyone calls him now.

Why can’t people leave their cell phones in the car or locker?
I need mine as it has my program on it (easier than carrying round a notebook). I may look like im texting briefly but im actually hard at work.
Ok, that’s legit. I bet if you were on a 60 sec rest, you wouldn’t answer it though…

Are you gonna let him spew on your vital parts
Anyone have the “oblivious janitor” at their gym? Generally only seen early in the morning, this person is on a mission to clean the entire weightroom. However, instead of working in areas that are free of people (it’s 7 AM, the gym is pretty much empty), this person will start deep cleaning the specific area where you are lifting. I can’t count the number of times I’ve been setting up for a lift when this person wanders right in the path of the barbell to clean off the mirrors or mop the floor.
I’m trying out some work with swiss balls so I am going to be in the little ab corner of my gym.
But there is always some old guy over there doing SOMETHING. I do not know what.

I just wanted to quote this 3rd post from the first page to show the spoil-sport what fun we are now having!
Captain Seatbelt: This guy spends 30 minutes in the locker room wrapping ace bandages around his knees, elbows, wirsts, and ankles. Then he puts on his gloves and weight belt and proceeds to do three different variations of curls and the lat pulldown.
Smith Machine Sammy: This guy does his entire workout in the smith machine. Bench Press, Seated Military Press, Squats, you name it, he does it in the Smith Machine. Unbelievably, he has horrible form on almost every exercise.
The Spandex Commando: This guy is super skinny and insists on wearing full body spandex suits. Always working on chest and arms. Waits until people are finished squatting to do curls in the squat rack. With just the bar.
The chatterbox: The ugly girl who works the front desk who thinks that “Hi” is an invitation to tell you all about her life. Even if there are twenty people behind you waiting to check in.
The pantyliner: The so-so looking girl who works the front desk who acts like she is on her period 24/7. God forbid you need her to help you with your membership or anything that requires actual, you know, work.
The Kevin James twins: I shit you not, these two guys are identical twins who look exactly like shorter, buff versions of the comedian Kevin James. Cool guys though.
The Bouncers: A group of mentally challenged guys who work as bouncers at local bars. All on never-ending cycles and enormous. Hog all the good equipment.
The cardio queen: There’s several of these women. They spend hours each day on the treadmill or other various cardio equipment. They’re there when I get to the gym, they’re there when I do my after-workout cardio, and they’re still going strong when I leave. These women have no tits, no ass, and no muscle. They’re animated stick figures. If you jump on one of the pieces of cardio equipment next to them, they will look over and give you a snotty expression.
The “Hey Everyone Look at Me” Guys. We have a few of these guys. They stand right in front of the dummbell rack (blocking it for everyone else), make enormous amounts of noise and then look around to see who’s watching. If they catch someone looking they do two half-assed reps with some ridiculous weight and then walk around the gym like the biggest bad-ass ever.
The Gym Teacher: A new trainer who’s in his 40’s that dresses like a gym teacher. Whenever any semi-muscular guy walks by he puffs himself up and glares at them. When not training a client, can be seen visibly annoying the shit out of the twenty year old girls working the front desk.
Moby: I saw this hero a few weeks ago, but until yesterday I hadn’t been bothered by him. I’m doing squats which is a rarity in my gym (been going to this one for 2 months and have seen two other guys doing squats) so he comes over and starts using the power rack to do chins up on during my breaks, I wouldn’t even had a problem if he asked and then on his final set he decided to finally ask to which I didn’t even give him a response, but it didn’t seem to stop mr 5 pullups.
Stare at everyone guy: A typical bis and chest guy, he loves to oggle everyone as they workout, at any moment it looks like he is ready to ask you what you are doing, but he remains quite, no real problems with him except I think both of his eyes are very lazy.
The brahs: There are quite a few bros at my gym, but yesterday was the best day ever for them. These two guys come in and do nothing but Smith Machine Bench, Incline, Military constantly adding 10 or 20 pounds every set and talking how shitty their friends’ form is when they only go down 1/4 on a friggin smith machine!
The Stairmaster: 6’2 120 pound guy who absolutely rapes the stairmaster, his workout consists of 1 hour on it and then some assisted chins and dips.

I know That Guy. But he’s in my workplace, not the gym. Always shows up when he KNOWS we’re in crunch time and the space is crawling with people trying to get the work out on time. He could push his broom anywhere but he has to be in the eye of the storm.
The Reader: This guy comes in and between sets on the bench has 15 minute rests and reads a magazine. I timed him once, 15 minutes, I shit you not.
Richie Rich: Mysterious guy who someone once heard is loaded through his folks. Does the three main lifts but always with a spastic twist. Often deadlifts in the main doorway and often threatened with violence for it. Last seen duct-taping five pound plates to 90 pound dumbells. We already have three sets of 95 pound dumbells.
New Freak: Saw this guy for the first time yesterday. Walked straight up to me (I was resting on the bench press) and started stretching really brutally in front of me, arse in the face and everything. I thought WTF, but stood to put another plate on the bar, not more than a foot away. As I turned back, he was literally throwing the plates off my bar and psyching himself up. I had a strange feeling this guy could actually be insane, but proceeded to tell the guy calmly I wasn’t done and could be please fuck off. At least he seemed apologetic, but still batshit crazy. I saw him later getting a spot with 135 on the bar, and his feet straight up in the air… I dodged a strange mango there.
The Exploding Man: Middle aged man, probably about late 40s. Looks to have a somewhat decent physique for his age, which is not saying a lot. Has a giant beer gut, and seems to be a pastor for a church. About 5’7, pretty nice guy, but has no gym etiquette. He likes to do violent, explosive movements for 15+ reps and little to no weight, usually sticking close to the weight of simply the bar.
Saw him do skull crushers with enough lateral force to break a brick wall, and he likes to drop the bar from 10 feet in the air it seems, so that all people within the gym know that, even though he is 49, he still has it in him to drop weights like a stupid fucking idiot. Walks over to the incline benchpress afterwards and pumps out some grueling sets of 65 lb inclines while screaming every rep.

Oh my god YES. I missed the fourth rep on my heaviest set of squats because this JACKASS was sweeping right beside my feet and my concentration was totally broken. WHAT THE FUCK
I am so glad I lift at home!
People who stand 1 foot away from the dumbbell rack. Get the F out of my way! Have some courtesy and let other people get to the weights. Also people who get right beside you when the whole gym is practically empty. I guess I have boundary issues, LOL!
Beware what you say about the Tapout-wearing bros…you might just find yourself running your smart mouth, and then all of a sudden you’re wrapped up in rubber gaurd and your shit’s all omoplata’d or peruvian neck tie’d. That’ll teach you to fuck with a bullet-proof tiger.
One time I saw a dude with some venom shorts and tapout gear on and I rolled my eyes a little and this dude fakes a thai kick to my legs and I go to block it and then: spinning backfist! I thought I’d never back down but that dude really never backs down. That day I tapped out due to strikes.
The crazy thing is that most of these dudes don’t need to train because they are athletes. Athletes that will step the fuck up at any time and destroy anyone. These guys know the secret to winning, tapping people out, and scoring hot chicks and they will not share it with you because you are not an athlete like they are. If you were, you’d be tapping people out left and right. You’re sitting there training your ass off to try to be half the man they are while they size up your girl, giving her a look like ‘i might fuck that chick on an off night, she’s alright i guess’ and then staring you down like the straight pussy you are because there’s NOTHING you could do about it if they did decide to fuck your girl.
So yeah, in my gym I’ve been tapped out like maybe six or seven times total, been knocked out four times and tapped to strikes twice. It doesn’t bother me though, because everyone who wears MMA gear to the gym has the heart of a lion, the tenacity of a pitbull, the raw ability of a comic book superhero, and a cock like a Burmese python.
I guess if I were a guy at your gym, I’d be the guy who gets tapped out like once a month. I also drink a lot of water between sets.
