Setting the Lunk Alarm Off in Alabama

i think this is awesome. my main reason for commenting is that i will get the email notification so i can see the video when it finally comes haha

good god i cant wait for this to happen. I got yelled at at my gym yesterday because i yelled out ā€œfuck my dick with a sledgehammerā€ because this retarded kid dropped a 50 lb db on my foot while he was walking by me. I was the one who got yelled at because i was swearing. i can understand that but fuck did it hurt.

Not sure if it’s been suggested yet, but you should go in there (with partner/camera dude) and just go through your usual routine while verbally spouting off. When the alarm sounds and you’re asked to leave, your partner should pull the manager aside and explain you have Tourette Syndrome and that it is a violation of handicap laws to eject him from the facility (if you need an official-looking AMA approved Tourette’s ID card, I’d volunteer to make you a PDF you can print out).

Then resume your workout with all the gusto you can muster in your outbursts.

LOL iron dwarf.

You guys should both warmup beforehand, and if you guys can fit between the plates, both of you do DL’s on the same bar… at the same time. With an absurd amount of weight.

when they ask you to leave you should burst out crying and wailing saying you just wanna train why wont they let you train why god why!

bring a pair of cuffs with you and when they tell you to leave handcuff yourself to the smith machine

Holy shit, think about how many more weights will get dropped when that weight scares the shit out of people lol

I like the UAB rec center, just wish they had a real squat rack so I could do rack pulls off that instead of stacked up 45’s…

I lift at the UAB rec center and I’ve found that its easier to stand on 25’s than 45’s just gotta put them under each foot.[/quote]

Sweet, I’ll try that next time…

Thanks!

I think the minute he starts putting 3+ plates onto a bar, they’re going to notice (their gyms are purposely open plan so the staff can easily see everyone, and watch out for ā€œlunksā€ - or so I’ve read, and seen), and probably just tell him to leave right there before he even does anything, or the second he starts picking it up and doing anything, set off the lunk alarm and ask him to leave. Which will result in a very short video of nothing.

I heard you’re also not allowed to use do any exercises where the dbs/barbells are placed on the floor inbetween reps, so things like power cleans and deadlifts are completely banned anyway.


Personally, I’d rather see you grabbing a couple of bosu balls, a 10lb db, then positioning yourself so that you’re lying across both the balls at the same time, and use both hands to press the db. Act as if it’s really heavy, and grunt/scream at the top of each rep. Essentially mocking everyone there for doing similarly stupid shit at the gym.

Make sure you fall over in a collapsed heap at the end of each 10 rep set. Then go and talk to the people on the treadmills like ā€œman, this working out thing is tough. These weights are too heavy. They should make them smaller. God, they’re so heavyā€

OR

set up a ridiculously stupid circuit involving lots of bosu balls and stupid exercises, basically running around the gym like a madman doing stupid shit – your circuit should at least involve a backflip, perhaps off a bosu ball whilst holding a couple of light DBs?

^
To the post above.

Well hell if that happens, just run around and jump up on the pullup bar, start repping them out and yelling Hoo-rah! Then before they shackle you up, go yell at fatties on the treadmill.

Just act stupid, be a foo.

It’ll be worth it.

We need a series of Jackass: T-Nation. I saw the one last night where johnny puts on the strap on and goes about random stuff. Maybe do something like that, so when they come to talk to you, it looks like you have a total boner, and they don’t even know what to say.

Hey, if you do the Tourette PDF will you please shoot it my way as well? That would be really convenient for those times I can’t resist saying what I really think. If you’ve got time, send me one of a hundred dollar bill as well. Thanks.

Absolutely. The PDF is free to all.
