So my friend from home got into a 2hr political debate at the gym the other day(reminds me of some online forum)… Anyways, he used the word “ergo”, got flack for it, and the conversation turned into making a list of “words/phrases that are not part of the gym vernacular.”
this is the list so far:
feel free to add to the list
ass to grass
or is that just my gym?
“musical theatre”

You guys must all go to my gym!
also banned:
squatting in the squat rack
anything other than bench or bicep curls
Who the hell says “lol” in actual verbal conversation? How is it even done? Wow.
Anyhow, I vote to ban the words “burn,” “pump,” “roids,” and “NO2.”

from American Idol.
I thought of two more (both were inspired by the greatest movie since “The Fast and the Furious II” and “Gigli”):
“whos’ your daddy!”
and
“you are my nemesis!”
“I dont want to get big I just want to be ripped”
Your gym would hate me, Im a weirdo who walks around saying “I heart…” & making heart signs with my hands. Im also immature whenever I can be, and female so it’s probably a bit different.
“Wow, that’s a lot of weight! You’re strong!”
“I’m trying to gain weight but I can’t.”
“I don’t want to get too big.”
“I’ve only got two sets left.” In response to me asking to work in. Usually followed by me saying “Yeah, well I only had one left and you changed the weight I was using.”
“So how much do you bench”?

I dont get it…“I heart” can you use it in a sentence? I havent heard it befor but then again I dont really listen when most people speak.
"I read in (insert name of shitty BB rag here) that you should…(shitty training ideas) "
LOL, so damn common.

American Idol II runner-up. He’s a superlative vocalist. Among men, one of the best I’ve heard.
The AI2 winner fell off the planet after the series. Aiken, however, is more popular than ever. Justifiably so if his X-mas album is any indication.
