Accidentally shitting yourself attracts hot chicks? I’ve been doing it all wrong then.[/quote]

It was an accident man! It didn’t work, but she didn’t know anyways. I had to go into the bathroom to check the situation out, and when I was done with that I looked in my shorts for some shit and sure enough, there it was. I left and cancelled my membership.[/quote]

Great story. I once started farting while attempting a deadlift PR. I’ve never experienced anything more distracting during the lockout process. I even apologized when the bar had passed my knees. And then I opened a couple of windows. Now that’s gym etiquette!

Just discovered the first src thread. These are hilarious.[/quote]

Good. Keep posting stupid shit you’ve done. I mean, come on, we’ve all been newbies at some point so I’m sure we’ve all done some stupid shit ourselves. This thread gets totally redundant after a while when it’s just a bunch of Internet tough guy/gym Nazis making fun of everyone they see. They’ve all done stupid shit too, their egos just can’t handle admitting it.

Believe it or not, the first gym I ever belonged to I did a bunch of stupid shit. I got a bench and some dbs and shit at my house when I was about sixteen and did stupid shit there too. I’ve done curls in the squat rack, and with some fucking pussy weight. I’ve done calf-raises AND shrugs in the Smith machine, hell I’ve even broken a 20’ mirror in a gym with a db once. In fact, I’ve broken two mirrors in my own garage gym too.

I built my own row station into my squat rack with some steel cable, a couple pulleys, and some mt climbing carbiners to hook a chain to the Olympic discs a couple weeks ago. The first time I tried it I put way too much weight on there and almost pulled the whole fucking rack over on top of me.

I know for a fact when I was 18 or so I loaded up the leg press with 1,000 pounds and pressed it. At the time I thought I was God, but looking back on it, two things come to mind:

  1. 1,000 really ain’t even all that much weight.
  2. I’m pretty sure I went down about 1/8 of the way and used my hands to push my legs back up, though I can’t say for certain.

It was also around that time that I would do 21’s as my entire arm workout. Tricep? What tricep?

I’d like to travel back in time and punch my own self in the face.

hahaha! That reminds me of the time I got fucking stuck in the leg press machine when I was about sixteen, and I didn’t have anywhere close to 1000 on it (something like 700lbs). My buddy called me out because I wasn’t going down very far, so I went all the way down and got fucking sandwiched in there. He was laughing his fucking ass off…I slit his fucking throat later.

So you really werent kidding about stopping your workout halfway through to stare at yourself while you jerk off.

do you think if you did that at a planet fitness it would set off the spunk alarm?

985

I remember this one time, I was doing clean and jerks w/135 with a friend at the school gym. Well, he received the clean easily, but on the press it started falling backwards hard so to ‘spot’ him I tried to push his upper back forward a little. He just dropped and the bar fell lopsided on top of the meat of my upper back. I’m glad as hell it didn’t hit my head or spine. I couldn’t help but laugh after all that. There were a couple guys from different places running to see if I was OK. Good times… good times…

I’ll play this game. I may have posted this before but when I first started training, someone introduced my to box squats; both high and low. I was trying high box squats with 2 plates in an old rack that didn’t have adjustable pins. At the time I weighed about 125 and got stapled to the box on the third rep with no easy way to dump the bar.

I sat there and yelled for someone to help me. There was only one guy there and he had his ipod on. He finally saw me and pulled the bar off my back. He then lectured me and told me to use the smith machine. It was awful on so many levels. Now I have my own rack with adjustable pins. I’ve done other stupid shit but it’s been at home :slight_smile:

Dude, I’m fucking going there. All I need is one of those hidden camera things that look like a pen that you stick in your breast pocket and a gimp outfit like the one in Pulp Fiction.

I’ll bring a buddy along, and we’ll pretend like we’re a gay couple there to check the place out because we heard it’s “judgment free” and we’ve been getting judged extremely harshly at other gyms, for obvious reasons. So right off the bat they’ll be extra conscious of not being judgmental towards us.

I’ll ask them if they mind if I work out there for an hour just to get an idea of what it’s like there. This’ll be at whatever time it’s the busiest. They’ll probably say yes because I’ll be regaling them with promises of getting some sort of super-deluxe membership or whatever if I like working out there. My “gay” buddy will be filming the whole thing from right next to me with the hidden camera.

So I’ll go into the locker room to change, and that’s when I come out dressed like the fucking gimp, complete with an “anti-grunt ball” taped into my mouth. My buddy will lead me over to the dbs with a leash (ok, the leash part might be overboard and probably will violate some obscure clause in their contract or whatever).

As soon as I start working out, I’m sure they’ll come over to say something to me (I won’t grunt or drop any weight, shit I’ll follow all their rules) and if they’re even the slightest bit judgmental toward me, I’ll start to (try to) scream at him through the anti-grunt ball about being judgmental and all that shit and if I wanted this sort of treatment I’d go sign up at Gold’s. If he apologizes and leaves me be, I’ll continue to lift until I notice someone (undoubtedly everyone) staring at me in a judgmental way.

I’ll head over to the desk and throw another fit, and if they don’t kick that fucker out, the shit will REALLY hit the fan. I don’t know what I’ll do, but I guarantee at that point things will get ugly and I’ll definitely expose myself to the possibility of arrest. I’ll expose myself literally if I’m able to leave under my own power without the cops being called.

PM me to arrange setting up donations for the hidden camera and the outfit. I’ve looked into it and it’ll cost me around $300 to get all the gear. Any attorneys out there that want to give me some free legal advice beforehand (and most likely afterward as well) would be greatly appreciated.

I swear to fucking God I’m dead serious about this shit. I really don’t feel like spending the money to do this but if I absolutely have to, I will. Like I said, I’m taking donations, and if I don’t come through, I’ll never visit this site again. The nearest PF is about an hour and a half south of me in Sacramento.

I just love when you get all riled up.

Will you two just fuck and get it over with already, before you infest every thread with your little back and forth banter.

How the hell do you already more than 800 posts? Just kidding (not really). If you get your voluptuous, scrumptious ass out here to Cali, you can be the one to lead me through the gym on a leash…or vice versa…

If my dick could reach across the continent to Florida, it’d already have happened. Unfortunately you wouldn’t be able reach my dick from New York.

I was talking about nikki, but going back a few pages it looks like you might stand better shot.

So I just spent the whole day reading this entire thread.
I’m new here and it’s a rest day what did you want me to do…
So I’m 16 and I’m glad I found strength training and stuff as early as I did.
Stupid Shit I’ve done in the past:

  1. Bodybuilding 5days a week, no legs, no abs, one body part a day, 3 exercises per body part, 3 sets per exercise, 8 reps per set. This was the first form of lifting I’ve ever done. I was about 13
  2. When I was doing some barbell snatches a couple of months ago I was bringing the bar up with my arms almost outstretched and when I got into the catch position the momentum was carrying the bar backwards so I had to dump the bar backwards… onto the conveniently placed Preacher curl station… Good thing there was only a total of 40kg on the bar (I live in Dubai and there are no good lifting coaches, so I have to teach myself lifts. I also decided to ditch the snatches until I find a proper coach)

I lift at fitness first (generic fitness center, more of a business then a gym) and it wasn’t a squat day.
I deadlifted, did Dips and was doing barbell rows when this huge guy walked into the power rack (the only place to squat, my gym has no squat rack).
He had a Gold’s gym belt and I was like O shiiiiiiiit this guy is gna squat some big numbers.
He put the bar on the pins.
I said no problem he is probably going to rack pull 585 for reps or something…
he picks up the empty bar and starts doing barbell front raises…
His front raise only goes so high as 40kg…
This isn’t really SRCing but I think it qualifies.

Your barbell snatches remind me of one of the first times I started doing cleans. I was really trying hard to keep the bar close to my body and pull it up hard and all that shit. Well, naturally at one point I pulled the bar up too far and fast before getting underneath it and clocked myself right in the goddamn chin. Split it open a little bit and started bleeding all over the place. This was in my garage so I kept going, letting it bleed while I kept lifting. Of course, my dumbass hit myself in the chin again on the next fucking set. But I didn’t stop there either; nothing gets in my way goddamnit!

“Learning” oly lifts is a great time to look stupid. I once dropped 154 pounds on my head while attempting to clean and jerk.

Dropped a 40 kg bar backwards while trying to overhead squat.

Why do people always say “I’m okay” when they almost kill themselves from fucking up? No one asks.

Learning to full snatch will leave your ass bruised.

Squat rack curls.
135lbs to fail, last set. Already did 155 curls, 145x2 and then finished with 135 as seen in short clip.

It took 1000 posts to finally get a vid of someone curling in the squat rack…unless I missed a vid somewhere.

Curl away my man, curl away
