The girls who dress like whores and then talk crap to you about staring are every, especially here in Colorado. Since there is less summer time, they have to get in more of being a whore than girls in warmer climates.
^so just bang them.
anyway, i wanna retract my statement about leaving plates on equipment. im not at the gym i went to anymore that required you put them away and now i lift at ballys where people just leave shit all around. its fucking annoying cause everytime i go to the bathroom some dipshit is either on my shit or took off a plate. i remember going to do a bench press and i lifted it off and was like wtf why is one side so much heavier? turns out some dick that teaches ju-jitsu there wanted to put one of my plates on his leg press. fucking assholes. alright even leaving one plate is more sensible than what they do - just leaving an odd amount on like a 45 then a 10 then a 25 then a 2.5 like wtf? as of right now im still putting my weights away, hopefully some of em will see and follow suit.
Rack your weight when you’ve finished with them.
Don’t take the weights I’m using without asking!

Actually it is, its an advanced technique combining Squat rack curls with cell phone use. At the Olympic level screaming and spandex are compulsory.
-
Do not put gel in your hair and spike it up to make it look nice and shiny for the ladies.
-
Do not pose and flex your 10" bicep in front of the mirror taking up room by my squat rack.
-
Don’t jump bail. This actually happened at my gym. One of the trainers was arrested in the gym at gunpoint, as Federal Marshals ran in to serve an arrest warrant for him jumping bail.
i always get a laugh when i see the guys with spiked hair. i know most of em probaly just did it in the morning and its just like that now but i know theres gotta be a couple who did it right before they left their house to head to the gym.

I could go both ways
no workingout with ur girlfriend having her to do crunches with cables then when shes not paying attention …you check out ur abs in the mirror…several times
- Leave your plate on the barbell or the leg press!
Why can’t we just leave our plates on the barbell, the next person wouldn’t have to do it and I wouldn’t have to set them on before my set. If you can’t take off the 45 pds plate by yourself, fix this before you go benching or squatting.

I have tried, but apparently when they say no, they mean no. Gotta remember that for next time.
i had a real positive experience at gym yesterday, walked in to start some squats and there was a kid in there doing curls(its only just recently started in my gym), i asked how many more sets he had left, he said 2 and then asked me what i was going to be doing, as soon as i replied squats he said i could take it and he’ll go elsewhere
not all squat rack curlers are bad

WTF? I may not like you much, but holy crap. That is just… wow.
I’d have picked up a 15kg plate and started swinging.

Yeah, that sucks, don’t it?
I know it’s been said before but don’t come and spot me if I didn’t ask for a spot. I know it looks tempting and I know it’s visibly clear that I’m fighting pretty hard, but coming up behind me while I’m doing
(1) Dumbbell Bench Press
(2) Military Press
(3) Front Squats
(4) Any Number of things done in a Power Rack
Just proves to me that you’ve never performed these exercises yourself and because of this you’re really not qualified to give me a spot if the exercise demanded it.
This also makes me initially think that you’re approaching me for some other reason besides giving me a spot. When I see you coming up behind me while I’m focused on a set of Front Squats or Incline Dumbbell Bench, the first thing I think is that you immediatly need my attention and you must have something to tell me that is important enough for me to drop everything I’m doing. Why else would you come up do me while I’m doing an exercise that needs no assistance?
Go back to spotting your friend on the Leg Press. He looks stuck.
yeah, wtf@ spotting DBs?
How about…
If you are not using the bench, rack or machine, get your water bottle, towel, magazine, cell phone, notebook, out of my site.

Notebook…
Saw someone doing Power90X with his notebook resting on a perfectly usable free weight bench. He was hoarding all the weights below 30lbs. I think gathering the weights provided more of a workout.
Heres one that probably shouldn’t be a rule but it just irritates me, kinda like crunching your cornflakes or slurping soup.
Catch your breath before come back into the locker room!
Oh yeah almost forgot…
Use the auditorium for shadowboxing, not the free area near the DB’s.
