No, I have OCD. Between sets, I’ll re-sort the weights on the little stem thingys near me so that each stem thingy has only one type of weight on it.

You gotta watch out for those big black dudes especially with silver hair.

had them too. they used to kiss in between sets. i wanted to punch both of them in the fucking nose. [/quote]
The gym I used to go to had a couple like that but it wasen’t just a peck, they would hug and pet each other, yes pet.
There was a guy couple I seen there every once in awhile that had the oddest warm-up routine.
Each would sit at a lat-pulldown machine and proceed to do this, can’t even call it an excercise. Picture yourself finishing a set on this machine and reaching down to the floor beside you to get a drink of water but still facing forward and straighten up again.
He did this over and over again for a good 5-8 min, left right left right super fast staring at his reflection in the mirror. It looked idotic. For some reason that pissed me off more than any other asshatery I witnessed before I cancelled my membership and started traing at home again.

I do this too. I hate when they are not all the same weight or type so annoying.
All the 10s 5s and 2.5s go on the inside and all the bigger go on the outside. from top to bottom 25s 35s and 45s.
I weirdest thing, seeing people re-organize the weight tree and so I have to come back and rip off all the weights and mix them up like they were before. Throw a 45, then a 25, then five more 45s on the stem. Go back and forth between 10’s and 5’s on stems. I just throw the 2.5’s in the trash or on the floor. They aren’t worth picking up from the ground.

You and the guy with OCD should be training partners, brilliant workout just moving and reorganising all the weights, personally i just like to throw them in a big heap on the floor and let the guy with OCD sort em out, keeps him well happy almost like therapy.

Obviously Brother Chris has OCD as he HAS to mess all the weights up. Poor guy…
and I don’t care about weird shit but I can’t stand people that go, just to socialize and keep the serious people from training the way they want to. That shit gets me fired up, in fact I’m about to make it a status on facebook.

Just wear vibram five fingers to the gym. Everybody stares. Some hot mom asked me about them.

a status on facebook? ohhhhhhhhhh shit
I see a lot of guys at my gym that walk around like they’re 400 lbs, all slow with their shoulders rounded forward, even though they may only be 140 or so…it’s akin to ILS (imaginary lat syndrome) that a lot of guys here turn on once they walk through the doors of the gym.
Because my gym is a World Gym, I have named this thing where they walk around like they’re huge WGS, not for World Gym Syndrome but Wounded Gorilla Syndrome.
That PT that starts with 5lb DBs for bench and ends with 35s does it…I’ll try to get a video. It takes him 2 minutes to walk across the gym floor, which is about 30 yards.

Funny, I actually got started when someone left 100s all over by two of the cages, mostly flat so you had to cram fingers under to grab them. (It looked like they were using them as impromto-steps for deeper deadlifts.)
It was 6:00 am and the litle Gold’s girl didn’t weight 100lbs herself and asked me for help, as it was clearly her job to clean up the weights.
I ended up moving 1200lbs about 20 yards, and did kind of “farmers walks” with the 100s.
It really was a pretty good warm up, as well as satisfying my OCD.
