Doing GHR’s one day at the end of a session and placed a towel on the pad, the towel was covered in sweat, when a very hot chick came and asked to work in, I was dumb founded and confused at the same time. When she asked to work in I said sure and then asked her if she wanted to use my stank towel, she gave me a funny look and declined the offer. Felt like a moron.

Squatting in an actual squat rack not a cage, when I went to rack the bar I got one side in the catch and just the edge of the collar in the other, as soon as I stepped away from the bar the unstable side fell and skipped off every catch before slamming into the saftey bar at the bottom. That was the most God awful sound again I felt like a moron.

I went into my gym today… and saw a trainer showing someone how to do a romanian deadlift (yes it was 65 pounds BUT STILL) And then another personal trainer showed a guy how to do T Bar Rows! And then ANOTHER trainer showed someone how to box squat. Bear in mind usually these trainers do bosu ball core stability rubbish. Have they all drank the free weight kool aid or something? There is hope yet for my gym!

This was a couple days ago.

Gym was packed and there were no free bench presses. The squat racks were open so I decided to bench in there. The squats racks are very tight into the wall and there is no room for somebody to get in behind to spot you, keep that in mind. Get set up and start going. After a few warmup sets I got up to see some guy hopping from foot to foot in front of me. Apparently he wanted to work in. He did not speak that much english. On my last set his small friend comes over. I move to the other squat rack to do bent over rows. Half way through my sets I look over to see that the two guys had started spotting each other but with the one straddling the other while he benches due to the racks being so close to the wall. I really wish I had my camera because it was almost unbelieveable. Safety first I guess.

I work for a big company, and there is a fully equipped gym in the basement. I’m talking to one of the trainers between sets, just bullshitting(she is actually very cool, a competitive figure athlete) when one of her clients(also female) comes up, and they go off to begin their training session. they set up on the other side of the gym, and partway through their session the trainer walks by me to grab some free weights for her client. as she walks by she motions for me to take my headset off. I do, and she tells me the woman she is training has the hots for me and will not shut up about the things she wants to do to me. then she says “sorry if I bugged you, just use that thought for fuel for your next set.” I love my gym

I had a couple of wonderful moments in the university gym today. An excerpt from my training log:

Paused NGB
265x4, 295x4, 320*x3
A true SRC moment. I thought my right arm felt heavy after two reps and on the 3rd especially so, and lo and behold I had a 5 on one side and not the other. Sigh.

Then, in a move I saw coming a mile away, I was doing weighted dips and having trouble getting the belt off (I didn’t want to squat down because my knee is hurt and would have been pointlessly strained). So I slide the belt down my ass and with it go my shorts, exposing my lovely Hanes briefs to the crowded gym. That one I was actually proud of.

Yes :confused:

I curl in the squat rack. I don’t care either.

I do, too.

I elbowed a guy in the face today doing facepulls, it was funny but sad. I won’t lie and say I didn’t wanted to do it… a little bit. The cable station in my gym is located near several other machines, so when you do stuff that requires space, you are either almost leaning against a machine or you’re getting in another person way. Today the gym was empty, yet this guy decides to comes and curl or whatever exactly behind me, with all that free space left in the gym. So he sets the bar down and comes closer to me, looking oblivious of what about to happen if he comes a few inches foward, but I think to myself, “nah, he isn’t that dumb” then I fell something hard agaisn’t my elbow and heard the noise of something a bit big falling to the floor. “Oh well” I think.

Two dbags walk into the weightroom this morning. I had a feeling the coming events would be good for this thread because they started out their “workout” by sitting down on opposing benches and staring at each other lovingly for about 5 minutes.

They move into the free weight area, clear out all the benches but one, and set up a computer on this bench so they can put on a workout video…I kid you not. They spend the rest of the morning doing some BS jazzercise BODYWEIGHT ONLY workout in the free weight section. All of the exercises were obviously for “toning”, and I’m pretty sure there was some yoga going on at one point. I was utterly dumbfounded and could hardly focus on my lifts. They were still going strong when I left 40 minutes later.

OK, I lied about the bodyweight only part; I did see them carrying the 5 lb dumbells at one point.

Not really a squat rack moment per se but I realized that the 2 months I been at my new Gym theres atleast 50 people in the gym at any given time and I came to realization that I am the only one that does Deadlifts and Squats without the aid of the smith machine.

Never thought I’d have one of these, but got one today…

So, went back to the gym for the first time in a long time. I wanted to start super setting and my mom didn’t want her membership anymore which is paid til March, so score. Much better than one my one barbell at home.

So today, first workout. Called ahead this morning and found out when the free weights had the least amount of people in there, show up at the gym, only two other people in free weights, score. Set up my stuff to super set deadlifts, chinups and military presses. Start doing my warmup, dumbbell swings. About half-way through this guy comes in. Lean, but not muscular at all. Looks like he’s maybe 20 and wearing one of those Army shirts that the recruiters give out. Walks right over to the squat rack where I set up my military press (it’s either that or clean it every time, the gym isn’t very well equipped). He starts taking off the plates and brings the bar down and loads 15 pounds on each side. Starts doing curls. By the time I get down with my swings he’s done with one set. By the time I’m done with my deads and chins, he’s still ‘resting’ (aka texting). I ask if I can work in for my pressing, he looks at me with like this blank look on his face for about ten seconds and then says, ‘Sorry, cant do it.’ I just looked at him shocked for a second and was like ‘Alright.’ Turned around and mumbled jackass loud enough for him to hear and deload the barbell and reload it for presses and just clean it.

Maybe I should have said something when he first started deloading. And I know I was kinda dicky with the jackass comment. And I know its all not a big deal, but damn. The only reason I returned to the gym versus my garage was for multiple babrbells so I could super set without having to constantly change plates…

I did a bunch of LSD-25 before I went to the gym today. I slumped over at the preacher curl machine, then tried to use it to do back extensions. After that I did curls in the squat rack and couldn’t stop giggling at the ironic nature of the whole affair. Then I made passionate love to a 45lb disc and blew my load on some fag’s back who was doing shrugs in the smith machine.

Dear Dude doing presses on the ball,

Get the fuck out of the center of the aisle. People need to walk there. There is plenty of room to do your shit 7 fucking feet to the left, please move.

Sincerely,

Everyone else.

This guy was doing declines and came up to me to ask for a spot. I said sure, no problem. He says he’s going for 10 and I say alright. He does 3 good reps on his own, cool. But then on the 4th rep, he’s stuck at midpoint so I help him get it up… but no… he says he has more in him… ok… maybe he just screwed up his form. But nope, this time he barely gets it off his chest. I help him get it up… then he does this crap again, I tell him no you don’t have this then he precedes to lower the barbell. This time I let him struggle for a while, you know try to give him the fear of death… but I think he actually liked that unfortunately.

I think I should have just pulled the bar back into the racked position after the 2nd failed rep of his. I’m not really all that into the assisted bench press thing.

There’s a guy at my gym, about 45 , that seems to have taken a younger guy under his wing.

Maybe you’ve seen this sort of thing…one guy has decided to be the coach for the other guy…making him do light weights for really slow reps, constantly correcting his form, making him do 15 or more reps, then when it’s his turn his does 3 shitty reps.

This guy does 6 plates on the Hammer preacher curl…that’s 270lbs! He ‘does’ 3 or 4 reps, by that I mean he has the young guy spotting the whole time, and I’ve watched it and the young guy has his back into it, his calves and everything else to help this idiot, and the young guy is grunting and grimacing and the ‘mentor’ is barely screwing his face up at all.
The other day he did upright rows (in the squat rack) with 8 10lb plates on a side! That’s 205lbs! The young guy was basically front squatting it…for one rep. Who the fuck does I rep all-out with tons of assistance on upright rows!!!

So I’m doing some dips and I see a couple of guys in the squat rack doing split squats with horrible form, so much so that I fear for their backs. Another guy walks up and gives unsolicited form advice. His form was worse.

At least they weren’t doing curls.
