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

Funny stuff with those pants.

What i realy hate in the gym is people walking around as if they are GOD. Like they are carying watermelons under theur arms. Ussualy its the 170 lb club kids too with the spiked up hair who talk on the cell phone. I dont even react anymore.
On the positive side the 5 gallon water jug seems to be going out of fashion lately...although the sandals are comming back for spring break fashion. I guess some ups and downs. Oh did i forget the guy who looks at what you are doing...then decides he should do more...just because you are doing an excercise..doesent matter that the guy is usign his whole body weight and not even doing the damn thing 2". He must show you HE IS BOSS. And my favorite is the wolf gang....the bastrds who train in packs like wolves.... damn morons...I think somone already wrote a thead about these guys..here on elite....he put it perfectly...." they can readily be found by the bench press area"

Ok my vent is done.

ROFL @ the wolf gang.
add 2 more morons to list:
1) the other day i was deadlifting. now, i seem to be the only guy in the gym who does DLs and definitely the only one who does cleans and good mornings and squats 3x wk. so anyway i've got up to 315 and am going along nicely when this skinny mother fucker looks at me, smirks and tells his friend "he thinks he's a weightlifter or something". now a few days earlier i remember stumbling across some lesser known forum similar to EF where some guy was raving about a video of ronnie pulling i think 800. now that is obviously pretty fuckin impressive. then some asshole joins in and says something like "you guys don't know a thing about weightlifting, he pulled it only half way; you obviously know very little about olympic lifts"! anyway, cut back to the present and i remembered the idiot on that forum and it occurs to me that mr know-it-all too obviously thought the same. so anyway a little while later some other guy sees him doing the 20th different curl variation and asks him "so you only do biceps?" and he says "yea, the chicks can only see my arms!"
2) we have a separate aerobics room. outside of the few hours when there is aerobics going on, it's empty and obviously nice and open and a few guys stretch before their workouts. so there was this fat guy who had taken a bar into the aerobics room and was doing some weird stretches with it. so he holds the bar about shoulder width apart and brings it right over his head with his arms outstretched. then he proceeds to bend from side to side. before he could finish one rep, the bar knocks a tubelight off the ceiling, it comes crashing down onto him, then on the floor and breaks up. it made a pretty loud sound and i went running in to see what had happened. so this guy was looking around sheepishly and trying to hide the mess when the owner came running in. the owner is a pretty mild mannered guy and he calmly told the moron to run out and buy another.

OOOO I got another one for ya'll.

Ok there is this guy that is at the gym on a regular basis. Well the other night I noticed b/c before I just kind of ignored him. Well this dude is in the arobic shorts or running shorts you know the ones that are really short kind of cut on the sides and loose in the legs he will wear these with a wife beater. Ok so he runs then gets off the treadmill and starts to stretch no biggie even though most people go to the arobic room to do this. Well I noticed the was stretching and a showing his ass when he bent way over and holding the stretch. Then he proceeds to lift his legs up to stretch and shows his balls. I'm OMG! Then it gets worse. HE does the bench press ok no biggie right. Well this gym has 4 flat benches he gets on the only one that is facing the rest of the gym where the cardio and nautilus machine are and proceeds to do his sets with his legs on the floor and spread in those shorts with the tip of his johnson peaking out to say hello!

Not that I enjoyed looking not my type but damn it was so freaken obvious!!! NASTY!

Well I was at the gym on friday and the Michigan State University football kicker was in there doing I guess you would call them deadlifts. His form was Soooooo bad. His back was bent like a McDonlad golden arch when he went down and not only that he was doing like a 1 sec concentric, 1 sec eccentric rep. I have no idea where the heck their physical training coach is for those guys but they are going to lose their kicker if he keeps that up. I couldn't look any more because it was hurting my back just watching him.

funny thing is that he should have at least figured out on his own with all the pain and the dangerous "arch" that he was doing something really wrong.

He's probably to stupid to know the difference between good pain and bad!

Well he's only a kicker, it's not like he's a real athlete or anything
