Maybe that shit flies in Kanuck land, down here you would likely find a willing challenger to take you out back in an alley. Maaaay want to rethink your game dude. Save the dick waving and train.
I know a guy who was bullied by some juice head at a gym. Well, this guy got tired of the guys shit, waited on him in the parking lot one evening. The juice head got his face rearranged by a sized 12 steel toed boots. No one won that day and it’s all due to ego. Don’t get caught up in that shit, is what I’m advocating.
Guys seriously. Sarcasm troll post. This guys story doesn’t seem bad. There’s worse mofo’s out there then the typical gym staring at another dude thing. Happens all the time. Some of the threads around here are retarded so they warrant retarded posts.
I came to learn that gyms house some of the strangest people one can come across. At one Powerhouse I worked out at years ago, some middle aged guy would do all sorts of whacked out shit on the dip-pullup apparatus and then when he hopped off it, would raise his hand and look into the yonder, as if he was expecting applaud.
I also went to a Bally’s back in the day where the original Jason Huh went, except this guy looked like a lumbar jack, was middle aged, hairy, and natty (but jacked for a guy his age) and did one-eigth reps instead of quarter reps.
At the same Powerhouse as above, some juiced-to-the-gills guy, who competed as an amateur against Evan Centaponi, would gaspingly yell, “Up!” after most reps of most sets. So during his set, you’d hear, “Up… up… up…” throughout the entire gym.

Protip: There’s always at least one dickhead at any gym, sometimes you’re the focus of their foolishness. Accept it, don’t let it get to you and move on.
Protip 2: If you’ve had a look around and can’t find any dickheads, there is a good chance the dickhead is you.[/quote]
I’m protip 2, I get the angry eyes at the gym sometimes if I don’t pay attention so when I get it back I normally ignore it. There was a guy throwing a cop vibe around the gym who gave me the hard eyes a few weeks ago. It got under my skin a little, but I am an adult in the 21st century, so posted on Tnation…that fixed his ass good.

No fucking way.[/quote]
Yup. I did the same thing one time minus all of the sexual tension.

Really? No sexual tension? Are you sure?[/quote]
Well there was the girl doing goblet squats holding a dumbbell onto a thera-ball like it was a box squat and the only place to jump rope between sets was perpendicular to her about 10 feet to the right.
I kept imagining that I was the thera-ball but I don’t think she was paying attention at all.
Went today to the gym saw the usual gorgeous receptionist except I had to buy a bottle of water. She says, “out of all the things you forget you forget your water bottle.” She proceeds to laugh. Me, “yeah I guess”. Five minutes later I see that same tool as mentioned in my OP buying a water bottle and talking to the receptionist. Is this tool attempting to one up me every time now? This is getting ridiculous.

There really are no options left. You need to challenge him to a dance off.
'80s style, with a montage. Even if you don’t win he’ll respec you for bein straight up.

Try this,tell the receptionist chick what this guys does and you want to prank his punk ass. See if she’ll go along with something like this… go buy a water and yuk it up with the chick…get the receptionist to put a phone number on some gym flyer or some paper from the reception desk. Make sure this dick see you. IF he runs game on her, she’ll throttle his ass or tell him to piss off. You come out looking great. Who knows, the chick may dig it and put her real number on the paper cause you have a sense of humor. If not, you’ll get a laugh at this guys expense.

I just want to lift weights the receptionist is just a nice test boost as soon as you walk through the door haha. I’m beginning to think he has some sort of complex of being the “Alpha Male”. And I challenged his dominance when I requested the rack to do squats "an exercise he probably never does. Next time he’s doing curls in the rack, i’ll request it to do deadlifts hahaha
yeah man, blow his as up next time he offers to “work in” start tossing the plates on the bar. He’ll have to load / unload his side. At the least you get a helper for a set or two before he bails out. OR he may take the bait and you’ll have some doosh to out deadlift. haha either way you win.
