OK I always tend to think of this thread when I'm at the gym... and there are a few really frustrating people/situations that I encountered last night that have finally forced me to post.
#1 This one isn't so bad, it's just disappointing how ignorant some people are about how to achieve anything fitness-related in the gym. There is a middle aged lady at the gym, who does leg presses at the gym, with a 2.5 pound plate on each side, but they aren't really leg presses, it mostly involves the ankles ala calf raises, BUT, not really because she also bends at the knees about 20 degrees. She does like 1/4 range of motion while reading a book, but of course she just stops and sits there when she gets to the good parts. I don't mean to call her a moron, it's great that she's being active, it's just frustrating to see I guess.
These people really are morons though, without question, ALL 3 from the other night:
#2 This guy and his girlfriend. They make out nonstop throughout their workout. I don't mean the occasional kiss, I mean make out. At one point, while he was on the incline bench, she got on top of him, facing him, straddling him, they started hooking up, and actually began dry humping eachother for about 5 minutes. WTF?!?! This is PDA taken way too far... out of control.
#3 I'm squatting at one of the two squat racks. Two guys come over to the empty one, grab a free bench, put it in the middle of the rack (like they are getting ready to bench press off the squat rack). He puts the bar at the bottom of the rack, hops over it, faces out, and they proceed to do TWO sets of WRIST CURLS! One bar, one with a 10 and a 2.5 on each side. This is at 11:30 at night... there were 4 free bench press areas, the whole curling area was unoccupied, and at least of handful of free benches and olympic barbells.
#4 Remember the guy from #2 who was hooking up non stop? He comes over to that empty squat rack while I'm doing deads nearby. Two other guys in their early 20's come up to him. And really loudly the guy is like man I can't wait to do some tren this summer! And one of the younger guys is like I'm gonna do winny this summer! And he's like how's your current cycle going?? And this guy (about 6'2") goes: I'm up to 207! I love this stuff!! And they go back and forth talking pretty loudly about their cycles and juicing. This puts my gym in jeapordy and them in jeapordy because my gym is filled with cops and other law enforcement officials, most of which are pretty cool, but nonetheless. WTF?!?!
Anyway... didn't mean to rant but I think all of these were post-worthy.
