F'n workout partners!

[QuadzzJr]

I agree 1000%. A good workout partner is like finding a needle in a haystack almost...it happens, but its almost rare. I train alone usually too, and it does suck, because, in the past, when I have had decent partners (or even spotters who actually give a shit), I life more, get into it more, get a better pump. We should start a support group!! LOL. I feel your pain...my gym...about 90% of the crowd is there to look cool, talk in groups or on the phone, ask everyone, constantly, "how many sets do you have left", even though they themselves are not doing shit, except ruinning back and forth to the shake bar and the bathroom. Sheeesh.

yeah I work alone too. I used to have great workout buddies but then they all left after college (conan69 being one of them, very inspirational if not downright crazy man). but now I train in the mornings and I like it better that way because I have a HUGE gym all to myself.

Hey bro, Very true

When in school I had some good workout P's

Stonecold was great, til you went to that HIT shite LOL
Mike (you know who) was intense except for the fact he was always late and talked way to much

And of course my good bro Heavyironman

Now I cant find one worth shite, so I have to work out alone

I am however taking applications LOL

Hey I like my HIT, I train a lot more on the juice though 3 to 4 times a week.

I myself have a reliable workput partner who is very vocal when I am not feeling one hundred percent, whether it be tired and just distracted by whats going on in the personal life.

He makes sure I push myself and I am sure to go to the gym even when my schedule gets crazy. The guy's name is D-Bol. I also sometime work out with Test and Winny. Thank god for those guys!

Ya I feel ya also. I finally found a wicked training partner and he moved on me. I find a training partner is only good if he means business as well, and if you are very close to using the same weights on most lifts, and if you are on the same routine (I know ... asking a lot). I hate training with a pussy or a chick, nothing worse than having to change weight after every set.

I have substituted my old training partner for an Mp3 player now. I think that I actually like it better. I get super pumped from the rockin tunes, and I am in and out faster, strictly business bro.

I cant stand when people take cell phones to the gym. I also cant stand when people sit around and socialise when they are sitting on a bench or machine I need. I always go and tell them that i need it, no waiting around for me ... and for the most part they give it up pretty fast.

Yub, partners are hard to find.
That's why I never had one.
Besides, in a small town, not many people look at working out the way we do here at Elite.

I hate training partners and have not used one in several years. Also, what about the guys who come and want you you to write them a lifting and diet routine. You spend 30 minutes of your time trying to help them and then they never pick up a freaking weight again. I hate that. Bam

"I read it's better to do high reps with really low weight"

This is when i give them a swift kick to the junk, to confirm they dont have a gash, if they dont they deserve it anyways

I'm having a problem with a workout partner right now! Problem is he is a long time friend for the last 15 years. He just SUCKS as a workout partner. We'll always plan what time to meet after each workout and then 2-3 times a week he calls, 10 minutes b4 we are to meet, and says he can't make it because....(fill in excuse here). F*cking annoying!!!

I'm in a bit of a slump, and could really use a good partner for some motivation. I dont think I have it in me to go at it alone 100% right now! I have worked out by myself in the past with good results and it looks like I will have to dig deep and do it again!

I have some Thermorexin and Yohimburn DF on the way, so I am planning some new goals of getting lean which will help on the motivation.

BTw, the best workout partner I ever had was a good friend of mine who was a girl. Stripping weight was never fun, but she was always there, always in a good mood, and always motivated to push us both harder than the previous workout.
