Sick of Gym Members Sitting on Equipment Playing with Their Phones

*didn’t

@cyclonengineer you got spell checked by someone who then made a grammar error on that very same post.

Good point. I didn’t catch that one at first.

Lol. Good to see you could stop texting between sets to post, fella. Im sure your thumbs are excellent at the hook grip. Weak minded phone addicts are a scourge. You dildos clutter up the gym while others are there to actually put in work.

Nah… Not a bad ass. Just not an inconsiderate cunt.

Ah, the ubiquitous troll card. Im posting to the topic. Perhaps you’re not clear as to what trolling is. Might wanna Google it… while you’re taking up equipment… while someone is waiting on it… while you’re transfixed by your selfie taker. There’s even a T Nation article on the most annoying gym types. Phone zombies is on there. Congrats duuuuuuude… You’re on the list.

It’s like you’re not even trying anymore. Give up. Troll

Nah beyond no rest periods. Do two exercises at once with no rest between.

Leg Bench Incline Press like Tom Finn. No rest between sets twice as efficient workout time wise so you can then double up on the total work.

Seriously dude, if someone has a 5 minute rest time, why do you give a fuck what they do with their time?

This is a funny topic for me. You see, I’ve trained in my own gym for the last 15 years and my two boys train with me once or twice a week.

Me and the family just relocated across the country so I had to start training in a commercial gym. It’s a fantastic gym so I don’t mind. The only thing that really gets on my nerves is the people who do their sets right in front of the DB racks.

Anyway, I observed two young trainers running clinics for kids and I was really impressed with what they were doing so I signed the boys up.

After a few weeks I said to my older boy “You know buddy, you know how I train and you know how Matt & Charley train, which is basically the same as me, but you have no idea how most of the world actually trains”.

He responded “Oh yes I do. They do a set of curls then they spend ten minutes on their device “.

I asked how do you know that and he explained it’s an internet meme.

Haha, everything from a few toys in the way to the entire gym turned into a fort

No more PnW?

I’m a phone offender, but don’t really care. 1 minute rest to read/respond to an email, check stocks or read isn’t a big deal. I’m not there to be social.

A 5 minute phone offender = to a 5 minute gabber. If you have to take a rest in between sets, who tf cares what you do. If people want to work in, go ahead.

Lancaster PA. I hope to play some ball in Reading.

I was texting @jackolee during my rest periods at the gym today.

I went to the racquetball court where I had a little privacy… Except for that clear glass wall that the cardio machines face.

That’s just as bad as hanging out in the locker room naked complimenting guys as they walk to and from the shower.

What’s wrong with that? Maybe the guy wants to keep peoples’ spirits up.
