Morons at the gym (the official thread)...

[oxymoron]

Ok there's about 15 treadmills at my gym, but i think i'm the last person alive that actually runs on the things. They have nice flatscreens with 200 channels and i sometimes wonder if people cancelled their cable to save a buck and go to the gym to walk at a negligible pace and watch primetime tv. A few of them even have on street clothes...
If it wasn't 100 deg I'd of course be outside.

I was on vacation in Myrtle Beach and the gym I visited had a strict NO CELL PHONE policy. I actually saw a trainer explain the policy to someone using their phone. I HATE phones in the gym.

The other day I was doing cable cross-overs, and a woman came up to me and said, "I need to use this equipment." I laughed in her face and told her to learn gym etiquette ,and wait your turn...Man, some folks think the world revolves around them.

That reminds me.... Not a gym story but a stupid bitch story.

I was with my daughter at the grocery store renting a movie at the red box (2 machines) we were pushing buttons reading etc and this fat bitch looks at my 12yo daughter with a impatient selfish expression, smakes her lips and says "I just have to return a movie" I just looked at her and told her in the most sarcastic way possible that as soon as were done you can do anything you like with the machine... When we got in the car my daughter told me if looks could kill I would of been dead haha

There is a young kid at my gym, maybe 19 or 20 who is massively large. He's really annoying walking around like he owns the place wearing a muscle tank top, always flexing in the mirror between sets. Always wears sweatpants but the other day he was there in shorts. Funniest thing I have ever seen. his legs are like bones with some skin around them. has obviously never done a leg exercise. you see that alot, but what would possess a guy to get so massively large in his upper body but never work his legs? it looks ridiculous. I mean people are free to workout as they want, i guess i just don't understand the mentality.

Also, whats with the guys in the tapout shirts or shorts shadow boxing in the mirror between sets?

The other day i'm at the gym and theres a group of 4 high school kids. one is talking to the others how he squatted 405 the other day and today he is going higher. looking at how skinny he is, I thought there was no way he could squat that much weight. sure enough, i watch them load up 405 with two guys spotting, he unracks doesn't even go a quarter of a way down, seriously there is barely a bend in his knee, and then stands upright. his friends start yelling how he owned that and they start to load more weight. I was finished with my workout and couldn't listen to anymore so i left.
