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

This is just hillarious... Ledhead if I had someone cheering me on like that I'd throw the weights at them.. explode??? what I though you said unload???

Anyhow my moron story.. I was on the leg press... I'm slowly but surely adding weight over my workouts and I was up to 133kg or whatever but it involved having a few little weights on the bar.

I just finished my last rep and a guy walks up and said he'd like to use the press.. just leave the weights on.. the way he said "leave the weights on" had attitude..

I said ok and while standing up I caught sight of his matchstick legs which are half the size of mine, then I had a closer look at his head.. he kind of reminded me of the short guy off police academy.. the one whos wife jumped on the bonnet of the car.. but without the glasses.

He took my small weights off and started to load 50kg to the bar.. bringing his first set to 150kg (330 pounds)

I'm staring.. I'm not sure weather he's going to be crushed by the weight.. or if he will do it.. anyhow I couldn't look away..

He releases the weight and proceeds to bend his knees 10 degrees if that, and pumps out eight reps..

I'm thinking WTF.. and then springs up like he's a god and adds another 25kg each side bringing it to 200kg and proceeded to do the same but with less angle.. I couldn't look anymore

I saw him later strutting around like he owned the gym.. and what's worse he saw me looking at him in bewilderment and I'm sure that he thinks I was impressed and that would be jelly at his "amazing strength"


Trust me, he was close to getting assaulted in some manner...

Oh, I am sure he thought you were impressed. What a dweeb!! You should have laughed in his face!
 
Today whilst banging out some pull ups, this new bloke comes in, sees a mate of mine pushing his last few reps out on the bench and just goes over to him and starts shouting "yeah keep it up buddy! You can do it! Push that fucker"! Etc etc.. my mate nearly dropped the bar laughing! Sure he meant well but you just don't go doing that shit to peeps you don't know!

Tell me about it..

I wished Sweetchuck (that's the police academy guys name) had the balls to come over to ask me out.. now that would be funny, I would have marched him back to the leg press and made him do the full range of movement.. and watch him crumble. :evil:
 
wow these are some horror stories. best thing is find a gym that doesn't have many people and go there when its not packed. get a small group of guys who are regulars to get to know that you trust to spot you and just listen to your MP3 and ignore everything else (except the hotties)

Lol. I agree with your post. However, at this juncture of the game proximity is everything to me. I really do not want to drive 20 min. to workout when there is a gym 2 minutes from my house. Although, it is tempting considering my gym is loaded with people who are 50 and over. Sometimes I think I am at a Lawrence Welk convention.
 
The last gym I went to had a lot of over 50's as well, you run for ten minutes on treadmill and everyone thinks your a champion runner.
The one I'm at now is smallish, generally quiet, but from time to time you get a moron.. they infiltrate everywhere

I love going to a gym that smells like a Bengay factory. I love it especially when I am supersetting and gasping for air and take a deep breath then my nostrils feel like they are on fire.
 
Makes you feel alive.. doesn't it?? Ha ha ha

Mine was Old Spice.. I can picture them dousing themselves in it prior, not just a dab, but a pouring it over themselves.. sometimes it was eyewatering
