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

[MichaelScott]

I don't know what's going on at my gym. There's a coupla guys that walk around the change room with no clothes on. They walk to the crapper, or stand at the urinal, nude. yesterday therre was a guy shaving his face, nude. His package was resting on the counter. And he didn't even clean the sink.

gotta love the naked guys. i guess every gym has them

 

[FriendlyCanadian]

gotta love the naked guys. i guess every gym has them

our gym is pretty small, most dudes come in what they are going to train in or are walking around in their boxers in the change room, haven't witnessed anything horrific yet..

 

[deathdroprob]

about a week ago I guy that always talks to me and keeps me from working asked me to spot him with his bench. He looked about late 40s or so and was a father of a year 7 girl that goes to my school (Im in year 12).

He put on 60 kgs (I do this on my cock whilst asleep). As I helped him lift it off he started vibrating like some sort of F^CKED UP RED ELEPHANT DILDO, seeings his face was nearly purple.
He lowered the bar about 3-4 inches and pushes back up and at about the 4th rep it was no longer him benching but ME doing a set of Upright rows. After that he said next week he'd like to be benchig a round 70-80kgs. I try to stay away from him eveytime seeing he benches every time hes at the gym,which is about 4-5 days a week.
BTW when I was spotting him he was breathing in my face and had REALLY BAD SHIT breath

It's easy to forget how heavy 132lbs still is to many.

At some stage, when asked to spot, you have to take control and decline to continue to participate in the fiasco. Just rack the weight if you think he can't handle it. He'll whinge but it's better than getting yourself pissed off or, worse, hurt.

The other side to that coin is when some super-jock asks you to spot him on a set of 500 when your own best rack pull is still in the low 400s. You just have to decline in the interests of everyone's safety.

I've always had these theory that a good "weak" spotter is better than a bad "strong" spotter... just a little dumb little theory I probably wouldn't test but say for example... that guy with the 500 pound bench... did 3 reps clean then was dying on the 4th rep... he wouldn't need somebody to be able to compensate 100% of the lift, but probably somebody who could just pick up the 20-30% of the slack (or less) on the next rep. (Unlike say the guy who will jump in at the first, pre-mature sign of struggle and totally take over the lift needlessly and then bark at you to keep going to squeeze out another oneeven though the lift is basically dead now that he interfered).

Is there any sense in that convoluted logic, BW?

That's my theory of spotting. I don't touch the bar if it's still moving. Actually I like to let them hang for a second or two to make sure they're really stuck , help a bit then when they're past the sticking point I release and let them finish the rep. When I'm done noone ever suggests loading on more weight

The logic is solid right upto the point where his elbow blows or a pec tears.

You're right in that it doesn't take much to aid someone through a sticking point and that's why most guys are happy to take a spot from pretty much anyone. They know that if they're failing then it only takes a few pounds of help to complete the rep. It's when something goes wrong that it falls apart or he gets carried away and does one negative too many.

The worst case I ever saw of the crap spotter was when a guy I'd trained with a couple or three times asked one of the team benchers to spot him. He was doing pause reps and had gotten the weight to a point where he wanted a spotter for safety. He said he was going for a triple and slowly lowered for the first rep. The spotter heaved the bar up to the complete shock of the bencher who just racked the bar.

"You helped me quite a bit on that one, didn't you?"

 

[deathdroprob]

Yeah I usually spot good for everyone else,only assisting them,and taking of a portion of weight but a felt very sorry for this guy. I asked the same guy to spot in Incline BP. I was going for 3 sets of 7. I was weak at about 5 and then he automatically took ALL pressure off and I wasnt doing anything. Then when I was at 7 he says "Go for 3 more, go on get to 10". I later tried to tell him I set my weight so I cn only do 7 and that 10 wasnt my aim. Silly man.He does 2 sets of 15 on Hack squats and thats only slightly bending his knees about 5-6 inches down,HAHAHA Hilarious!

I get my wife & daughtewr to spot me on bench. They don't grab the bar 'til I say so, and just take enough weight to help me up.

best thread ever

 

[djeclipse]

best thread ever

ha, I forgot about this thread, dam it was a long time ago since i started this one.

It's always good for a few laugh's. Sadly it seems there are probably people on this board that this thread is about, lol

 

[skyflyer231]

The funniest thing I've seen in the gym was 2 teenage kids doing seated cable rows.

They had the weight up to high and were helping eachother on every single rep. They were doing it with bad form too as they would use their entire lower back as if they doing a back extenion/ forced row.

The funny part of this story is that they would not help by pulling on the cable or even kneeled down behing one another assisting the arms.

They would stradle eachother and do the exact same motion.

As a result it looked like they were humping eachother viciously.

I work at the gym where I workout. I am an instructor and trainer. It's so funny to read this thread because I've seen it all. I even caught people in the sauna masterbating. Men and women. It's pretty sad that many people join and gym and wing it without paying for a few sessions with a trainer.

I will admit I am not the best trainer in the world nor will I say I'm a good trainer. I just know how to put together workout programs and execute proper technique.


Just look around at your gym and if you see them doing something that looks "funny" just don't do it. For example, this woman was on the treadmill jogging. She doesn't have the most athletic build in the world but could run further than me. This other more attractive woman started up the treadmill beside her. She started in a side skip and a very slow pace rotating side to side then backwards. She then ran for 15 mins cooled down and ended her "cardo" session. The non-athletic woman tried to do the same thing. Well, needless to say, she ended tripping over her feet and fell on the treadmill which carried her off on to the floor with her head repeatedly bouncing off the conveyer belt.

We employee at the gym got a pretty good laugh but have never seen this woman since. People, use common sense and be polite to the other members because they pay the same dues you do.

Are you Male or Female? How were you able to enter the other sex's washroom?

Either way that is just wrong. Can't these people at least wait till they get home to jack?

I'm so glad I left the health spa type gym and found an old school dirty weight lifting gym. It's just people lifting weights getting stronger/ bigger. No one is going there to pick up, look good, bother anyone. Just lift talk shit and go home.

good ass 112 pages of laughs!!! MUAHAHA!!

 

[EarthRider]

This thread is great. I think it's so funny. I only do half squats, but I have Herniated 4 discs in my lower back from doing deads. I know bad form. I am just freaked out to do full squats. The way I look at it, better to do something than nothing. Anybody have any suggestions on what to do to strengthen my back from my injury.

As far as squats go, it is far better to do full squats over 1/3 or 1/4 squats.

If you can't go so low I would suggest box squats so all that stress of stopping above parallel isn't put on your knees.

 

[lanny]

More Laughs Please!!

 

[EarthRider]

Bump;
This thread must never go away. I love to hear the roid rage stories.

 

[Lee]

I see this ass clown in my gym from time to time who does everything completely wrong. He uses his entire body for curls and upright rows, deadlifts on a smith machine, and when he benches he bounces the weight off his chest so hard I swear it is going to stop his heart one of these times.

 

[keasbey]

i saw this guy attempting the 300 workout the other day.. he was getting about 1/4 the reps needed. i had to laugh when i recognized him doing it.

 

[Snarling Force]

2 beached whales in the form of men comes to mind. These 2 were screaming, slamming weights around, and causing a huge commotion over doing some dumbell presses. If they were big bros it would have been one thing. But here we have 2 blubbered 400lb gizzards screaming at one another to "explode" and the only kind of exploding I was picturing these 2 doing was either on the can or into each other's mouths in the steam room.

 

[deathdroprob]

I love squats on mondays.
NO one uses the racks.
The usuall n00b work out is like
Mon: Chest, Bis
Wednesday: Chest, Bis
Friday: Chest, Bis, abzz

One n00b decided to do curls in the squat rack on a monday...
and I was in a rush with limited time.

Lucky for him he only had one set to go, so I kindly waited half a minute.

Its become very cliche though lately

Also I swear one guy I see who ONLY EVER does curls with straps was trying to do a 5x5 type program with EZ bar curls.
And yes hes a fat dude with small bis that uses even smaller weight.

 

[drsketch]

I hate it when guys lift their asses way up in the air when doing bench..

Also hate it when people camp on equipment and not use it or do like 1-2 sets in 30+minutes

I see guys in the gym using the Squat rack for Bi curls ALL THE TIME. Most of them that use the rack do their form so retarded too.

It's so irritating. Hahaha Something I like to do is go up to them and ask: Hey, how many more sets of curls do you have left on the SQUAT RACK??? I'd really like to get in there and do some squats.

I'm not rude about it, I just get really amused by pointing out they are doing curls in the squat rack repeatedly.

There is this gymrat duo in my gym that make me laugh everytime I see them. One is a short fatass that wears a weight belt no matter what he is doing. The other is a tall twig with bad BO. They never do free weight bench, they only bench in the smith machine with the other spotting a lot of the weight load. Then they move onto BB curls in the FUCKING squat rack, which is where I do my shrugs since the spot bar is about 2 inches below where my hands sit naturally. Then they move onto Tbar rows with, again, the other spotting most of the weight. Makes me laugh, but is aggrivating at the same time since they are breathing my oxygen.

 

[artificialaspirations]

There's a tuff guy at my gym that drinks water out of a one-gallon, plastic, gasoline can. Red and shiny with the safety vent and yellow spout. Looks really, really, hardcore.

[pappad]

A guy today was doing squats, well 1/4 squats LOL and had 4 or 5 45lb plates on each side. He unloaded one side and yep, the other side went cracshing to the floor almost killing my wife's workout partner!!

STUPID!!!!

 

[brad34]

he also asks the most embarrassing questions like "are we friends?". when he said that there were two guys around one old one in his 20's and they both stopped what they were doing the old guy started laughing and the younger guy just shook his head.

OMG, f-ing hilarious!!! If that wasn't so ridiculous I would almost feel sorry for this guy.

I've been laughing so hard at these I need to get up, my gut hurts!

[DaveTSI]

One newb came to our gym one night and he really was all amped up about starting training. Ill give him credit cause he wanted to learn and do things the right way. He came up to me and was asking me a few questions about things and i gave him my opinions about different exercises and so on. Squats being one of them. So the next night he comes in and to my surprise he headed right for the squat rack. About 10 mins later we are all benching heavy getting into our workout, not really paying any attention to him at this point. Then my partner gets my attention and points over towards the rack. I look over and this kid is ass to the floor buried under 135, no safety pins in the rack. He has absolutely no option, no where to go lololol. So he decides to kind of roll forward off his feet and onto his knees! I dont know how that would be any kind of solution but it was fucking hilarious i can tell you that. So after about 15-30 seconds my partner gains his composure and goes over and grabs the bar and rips it off him with one hand, humiliating the kid even further haha. No, we never saw him again.

 

[MadMetal]

I remember seeing this somewhat big guy at the gym several weeks ago doing deadlifts with a bar from the bench with a 45 pound plate on each side. Each rep, he was screaming from the top of his lungs.

 

[deathdroprob]

I bet he he works with tools all day long and doesnt even bother to wash his hands before eating...

[deathdroprob]

When ever Im on leg press I usually put about 7 20kg (45lbs) each side for my 10 rep sets. Most guys will stare because I somtimes give a grrr!!! or a piiiiiissttt!!
Then some n00b comes over after Im done andtries to do the same weight. Bad Choice when he relised how much weight was on he took more than half off after telling me to leave it on, or maybe I just left it on. Im a cunt with that, I hardly ever take the weight off the leg press and if I do its less than half.

 

[smitty912]

This thread could run for years.

Looks like we have a prophet in our midst.

So after my 3 days of reading every post in this most amazing of all amazing threads, whenever I hit the gym I do nothing but look for the morons now, and its ridiculous how many of them there actually are.

So I get to the gym and they have the little airport/ quarter lockers in the hallway, so I do my usual and put my hoody and keys in there or w/e and I see this kid, about 5'10" 150, normal looking guy, he comes out into the hallway with the 25lb DBs. So after I lock up my stuff I go down the hall a little bit and get my IPOD in my armband and while I untangle my stupid headphones, I hear this ungodly grunting. Lo and Behold, its the kid with his little 25lb DB's doing lunges down the hallway screaming and grunting like he's doing a personal best deadlift or something every 3 seconds. Oh man, it was so hard not to just burst out laughing at the guy, I just put my head down and smiled while he grunted past me.

Besides that guy, you have the usual assortment of idiots doing BB curls with 5lb plates on each side in the squat racks, when what do I see, but an idiot doing what I thought were going to be dips place his head down and ass in the air and attempt to do a handstand like he's going to Beijing this summer.

Funny thing was, he almost nailed this guy walking past who was at least 2x as big as him in the head as he failed to complete his handstand and legs went wildly out from under him.

I love morons.

no, they don't come back over.. thanks for asking though..

Ugh. That reminded me of something that happened to me in my high school weight training class 12 years ago...

My buddy steps up to spot me on the bench. No big deal. Only thing is, my buddy used to pick up his girlfriend and give her a ride to school every morning. That particular morning, they decided to go park somewhere and he gave her a different kind of ride...

Later that day, his unwashed junk with 6 hour-old sex stink is directly over my face as he helps me unrack the weight... Fucking gag...

Needless to say (but I'll say it anyway), I immediately got a different spotter.

 

[lanky]

this thread should be a sticky, a classic

 

[Blane]

the benches in my gym are bolted to the ground. they have enough space between them for people to work out and not get in each others way.

Im on an adjustable incline bench. doing incline dumbell presses(the 90lbs dumbells. not super heavy, but difficult to manage after i hv finnished my sets.)

The bench next to me is flat and a female is doing skull crushers with the ezcurl bar.

enter the jackass:

some idiot positions himself between us as we are both in the middle of our set. he grabs two dumbells and starts doing stiff leg deads(i dont know if i should call them still leg deads.....i allways use a darbell)..... for reps of a zillion.

There is a seperate lower body area. but this jackass needs to get in peoples way. i finnish my set and allmost rip my shoulders apart trying not to put the dumbell down on his feet. The girl finnishes and loses her balance trying to avoid hitting this moron in the head with the easy curl bar. the bar goes one way and she slides off of the bench.
I was really angry.

I wont get into the teens who load the leg sled up with as many 45's as will fit(at least 16 plates on each side. i stopped counting after 8). and dont even let their knees bend.

how about the **** brothers that wear sunglasses, fake gold chains and that net or hose on their head. these guys just hang out because I never see them working out. wtf!

 

[EZ_E]

how about the **** brothers that wear sunglasses, fake gold chains and that net or hose on their head. these guys just hang out because I never see them working out. wtf!

My Top 10 (really all a tie for #1)

1. Too many plates on a squat rack and moving 6 inches for 2 "reps"
2. Slamming down 35 pound dumbells
3. CELL PHONES
4. 1st day in the gym wearing a weightlifting belt (the gut hanging over it is a bonus)
5. Extreme Blendz. The Cookie Jar? Why not just go to Carvel?
6. This kid @ the gym who does a whole Tai Chi routine before doing 1-rep sets.
7. Tank tops and stretchy pants are NOT made for everyone. (Men & women)
8. Running over to the TV to see the score of some damn game. If you wanna watch the game, go home and watch it.
9. Going to the gym for happy hour/to put on a fashion show.
10. Sitting in the sauna with pants, a sweatshirt, and a towel over your head.

 

[artificialaspirations]

real men unrack their weights. Currently Working out in Orange COunty, Ca while on vacation and gym etiquette is absolutely terrible. Everyones using bad form and too much weight in the land of 1/2 reps! No one squats, no one deads... I thought BB started in this state? WTF?

hey atleast I do full-ribcage-cracking-reps.
Its hard, I dont mean to let the noises out lol.

BTW I might have excadurtaed about taking weights off, I usually always take em off, but the story I told did happen a couple of times.

 

[lanky]

using 3-4 machines at once. example using two machines back to back between sets(slow sets 50 reps) and an article of clothing or towel over a third and/or fourth machine.

While reading through this thread I was hoping that my gym moron story wouldn't be taken. Alas, someone beat me to it.

The other day I walked in to the bathroom to see a fat old man, standing by the sink buck naked shaving his face. His junk was literally pressed up against the counter top. When I walked in, he looked at me nonchalant as if their is nothing irregular about the situation.

Besides that, the typical squat rack curlers are in full force at my gym.

There is a guy at my gym that cracks me up. I don't know him and he seems like a nice enough guy but complete blatant disregard for everyone else in the gym when it comes to him singing and being vocal.

First he'll do cardio and watch one of the TV's that has ESPN Sports Center on. Everything that comes on sports center he is #1 Superfan. He'll be watching and doing cardio and then out of nowhere "BOOOOOOM! BAHAHAHAHA!! BOOOYAAAA, THATS WHAT I'M TALKIN BOUT" and he looks behind him and points to the tv like everyone else in the place is watching what he just watched. Goes back to watching..."OOOOOOOHHHHHHH YAAAAAA!!" BOOOOOMMMM!!! YAAAA!!"

Then when he's working out every song in his playlist is "his jam" "OH THATS MY JAM!!" Then he sings like every third word "All up in...mumble... CLUB!! bottle..mumble... BUB!!!... UH UH!!" YEAH THATS MY SHIT"

He's actually pure entertainment, me and some of the other guys that are there trying to be serious about our lifting just kind of look at each other and give little smirks. Funny shit

[Blane]

i saw the guy doing bicept curls in the squat rack.........it infuriated me....it really did.


No offense to the fireman. but there is this person who wears a fireman tshirt. Dont know if he is one. but he is a pencil neck. and annoying.

I am one of the few people who actully puts the dumbells back in ther proper place on the rack. i was incline pressing with the 100's. The bench is on one side of the gym the 100's slots are on the other. im finnished pressing, im exhausted and carrying the dumbells(one at a time) to the proper place this fing idiot is leaning against the dumbell racks. i ask him politely to move. he ignores me. By this time im losing my grip on the dumbell. so i cant wait and move right through him. bumping him out of the way in an assertive way.

He gave me a glare, that didnt enspire me to kick the living s!@# out of him. so i continued to the dip bar.

[Slimshifty1]

Today I glanced across the gym and noticed something...fruity. Facing the mirror (only about 2 feet away), stood 2 Abercrombies curling side by side at the same time. It looked very homo. Two guys, curling right next to each other, weird. But then I noticed that they were using ONE bar. They were actually curling the same 45 lb straight-bar together. Both had two hands on a different part of the bar and they lifted as a team. I couldn't make this shit up.

So everyone hasn't heard of this newly invented sport, "synchronized weight lifting." It really is a beautiful art.

 

[chaos13]

should have let the dumbell "slip" right beside his foot and seen how fast he got out of the way.

 

[Slimshifty1]

guy on flat bench next to me, 120 pounds, khaki's, polo shirt and ball cap benchin 95 pounds. I am on my fifth/final set fourth rep and he gets up off his bench stands over me and asks if I need help mid set. I responded, "no im good" (which makes me an idiot too) and struggled to get my last rep cuz this guy fugd up my riddum and breathing cadence. If I was trapped under a bar I hope someone besided this guy would have been there because I doubt he could have lifted it

 

[kaptain_kayak]

Before I read this (entire) thread, everything was fine at the gym except for a couple of times when I noticed half-squatters or leg pressers who thought they were all that.

Now I can't get through a workout without relating people at the gym to stories on here!

I really want to do that.....morons...they are morons..

i saw a guy doing tricept kickbacks using a cable....he wasnt using a handle...just the ball that holds the cablein place...this guy was strong.
Stronger than i am.. by far...so i started doing them....he must hv moved gyms(he was the most developed in the gym i go to.) so iv stuck with them for a few months...so the personal trainers saw me doing them...now every pencil neck in the gym is doing it!!!!!!!!!!!!amazing...the stupidity...

 

[sean14182]

lol ive got a good story...i was at the gym maybe two weeks ago. there was some guy who i beleive from what i overheard is in the middle of his first cycle. he was doing bench on the smith machine. he had 185 on there and he was doing a couple reps, then launching the bar up without holding onto it, then catching it as it came back down. my friend and i got a good laugh at the douchebag, but the best part was a week afterwards we saw him at the gym again with one of his wrists all taped up talking about his injured wrist...hmm i wonder how he hurt it....

 

[iggy]

a friend of mine and myself took our delusional acid addicted friend to the gym in college once. he kept ranting on, "oh no danny i know how to work out". he started benching without telling us and he only had one 25lb plate on a side. the weight fell off the bench and everyone in the gym looked at us like we didn't know what we were doing. i was so embarassed. He would scream 666 the number of the beast and when i told him to do db flies he would let go of the dbs and they would fall on the ground. On chest day he would do leg extensions because he told me they work the chest and the legs. Worst biomechanics i've ever seen. when i tried correcting him he would start talking about drugs every time. then he ran like a leprechaun with his palms out facing the ground. Needless to say mclovin hasn't been to the gym since. but what a funny guy..... lol

10 Inexcusable Gym Behaviors - Healthy Living on Shine

 

[heatherrae]

looks like we have a prophet in our midst.

So after my 3 days of reading every post in this most amazing of all amazing threads, whenever i hit the gym i do nothing but look for the morons now, and its ridiculous how many of them there actually are.

So i get to the gym and they have the little airport/ quarter lockers in the hallway, so i do my usual and put my hoody and keys in there or w/e and i see this kid, about 5'10" 150, normal looking guy, he comes out into the hallway with the 25lb dbs. So after i lock up my stuff i go down the hall a little bit and get my ipod in my armband and while i untangle my stupid headphones, i hear this ungodly grunting. Lo and behold, its the kid with his little 25lb db's doing lunges down the hallway screaming and grunting like he's doing a personal best deadlift or something every 3 seconds. Oh man, it was so hard not to just burst out laughing at the guy, i just put my head down and smiled while he grunted past me.

Besides that guy, you have the usual assortment of idiots doing bb curls with 5lb plates on each side in the squat racks, when what do i see, but an idiot doing what i thought were going to be dips place his head down and ass in the air and attempt to do a handstand like he's going to beijing this summer.

Funny thing was, he almost nailed this guy walking past who was at least 2x as big as him in the head as he failed to complete his handstand and legs went wildly out from under him.

I love morons.

lolololol...wtf!

 

[heatherrae]

I'm having the same problem..only the guy always wants to spot ME and change my routine... he always asks me about my 5x5 and then criticizes it. I missed 177x5 on monday, on the 5th rep he yells out I'm cuuurling here!! LOL then today he comes over to spot me as I am redoing the lift and I'm like alright I'm going for 3 and then he's like I'll tell you when to stop.. JEEZ. I just don't know how to be mean to people. And then after I fail on the 4th rep he's like how many times a week u benching?? I go 2. he's like u gotta do 1. I'm like yeah yeah he's like you can do 2 but you can't go for max every time. I'm like THAT'S WHY I WENT FOR 3. And then he goes how long have you been trying to do this weight.. I go two weeks. He goes that's too long.. and I go well I did lose weight last week and 2 pounds this week..so I'm honestly OK with at least maintaining strength at the lower weight. And he goes? 2 pounds?? 2 pounds is nothing your lifts should be going up!!! And then he goes: Are you a trekkie? Cuz I'm a trekkie.... LOL I hate people.

LOL...oh man. you poor guy.

 

[LucSulla]

Might as well do my first post here.

My roommate and I are about to finish our first 12 week 5 x 5 cycle, which has been tough, but a blast. Both he and I have been strength training off and on for years, but doing the usual splits and so on. Needless to say, we have been blown away by our progress and are quite looking forward to more advanced periodization schemes and such (our goal is to get into oly lifting). At any rate, we have been very serious about having our form correct from day one. We are constantly critiquing one another, making notes of weaknesses, and generally enjoying the fruits of our labor. However, a biproduct of all of this has been to become more acutely aware of what everyone else is doing in the gym than I think we ever have. It's almost like one of those magic eye posters from the nineties - out of all the chaos squat-rack-curl guy is now clearly visible, as is bench-press-and-bis-man, along with all of the other usual stereotypes. However, one guy takes the cake.

I call him Nipples because he always has on a muscle shirt with so little fabric over the shoulder that has somewhat flabby teets are constantly wandering from underneath their cotton confines. This is the guy who wears a weight belt and lifting straps on a night where he does nothing but inclines - and I mean A LOT of inclines. Inclines on smith, free, hammersmith, and finally dumbbells. When he can no longer lift anymore, he has a tendency to try to keep going for set after set, either giving some poor spotter quite a deadlift workout or simply relaxing on a bench whilst letting the weight rest on his lap, until, in a herculean roar, dumping the weight as loudly as possible.

The most obscene thing I have ever scene in a gym was Nipples deadlifting. After some unusually awful sets of 275 with a rounded upper back, Nipples decides it is time to tackle 365. What transpired there after wasn't really even funny; it was horrifying. I'll go ahead and say he didn't visibly injure himself; it was still painful to watch. Nipples gets his weight on the bar, then proceeds to LOOSEN his weight belt. I guess he didn't want that cumbersome belt getting in the way. Next he chalked his hands, which would be fine, if he didn't then put his lifting straps back on. He gets the straps affixed, gets down deep, and begins this monstrosity of a lift. It is clear that it is much too much weight for him. Though his starting position was fine, before the bar even gets to his knees his upper back is bowed. With his knees still bent and back rounded, he get on his tip toes on one foot and begind wratcheting the weight up, shrugging one shoulder at a time in an effort to raise the bar to his hips.

At this point, my roommate and I are whincing. I've never seen someone do EVERYTHING wrong in unision. We were actually getting ready to walk over there and do anything because it was clear he was about to rip his spine clear out of his back. Well, with a final yank and blood curddling scream, Nipples got it up. He then dropped it and limped, yes, limped around in celebration like the king of Siam for about 10 minutes.

About three days ago he made it a point to do squats in the middle of the gym. With 135 on the bar, he was power cleaning it, then pressing it behind his shoulders. He'd then do 4 ass-to-grass squats (I have to give him credit where it is due), then drop the bar, in the middle of 5 other people trying to do their own routines. Now, ithis would be somewhat understandable, besides the fact that he had to do it in the center of the room instead of safely off to the side, had there not been two squat racks and two power racks available. It was such a clear case of "look-at-me" that it was just stupid. After a couple of sets of squats he moved to regular cleans - with one problem. He can't front squat 135! After all of his ludicrous attention getting, I watch him nearly kill himself in the hole three times before I just died laughing. The deadlifts, strutting, and attention-getting antics all rushed through my head at once. (I should add that he also loves to put as much as 275 on a bar, never actually do anything with it, and then just wander off leaving all the weight on the equipment). I just cracked up. He saw me I guess because he threw the 135 across a bench and left. Class act. I try to never ridicule or laugh at anyone who is trying to learn because I know exactly what it is like to be the newbie in a gym, but when you make it a point to call attention to yourself, you are just asking for it.

Not many posts about women at the gym and I feel they are underrepresented =p

So today I'm just hanging around between sets and a girl asks me to give her a spot on the bench. I see her there from time to time and she had a circuit training style, and I've never seen her go higher then 65lbs on the bench (she is a really small 5'7 100 lbs girl). So, she loads up around 100 lbs on the bar and I ask her if she needed a lift off and she said no. She unracks the bar and once she bends her elbows the bar just drops right on her. She claimed to be trying to enter a facebook group of people who can bench their own body weight and thats why she wanted to try. I ended up having to dead lift it off of her after it owned her boobies.

I feel bad for her because it was super embarrassing because everyone was looking at her when it happened (because shes hot). I am not sure if she was trying to talk to me or really serious about some competition or group of benching her own body weight. Either way it back fired completely and she will never be trying high weight again.

 

[watdadilyo6]

i saw a guy sever the tip of his pinkie finger after dropping a 70 pound dumbell on it. he was doin pec flys and let go at the lowest point, the weight sandwiched his finger with the ground, sliced the tip, and blood was everywhere, on the floor, bench, towel, and the lady working at the front said it looked like he would lose the finger altogether. i asked the guys wife who also works out there the next day and she said it was black and blue...it was sick.

[iggy]

i've got one for you guys. . . .

my roomate and i went to the rec center at college yesterday.
we took some nano vapor and went into the weight room.
both did a set of decline db presses and on my roomates first set this lady walks in the room.
she screams "EVERY OUT OF THE GYM NOW! I SAID NOW!", "THERE'S WEIGHTS ON THE GROUND! I'M SHUTTING THE GYM DOWN FOR AN HOUR!"
"OUT NOW". Needless to say i was shocked. We offered to pick up the few weights on the ground but she told us to leave. I was so damn angry!
Ended up doing sprints for an hour.
I doubt anyone has ever heard of something like that before

 

[Big_BK]

HAH!! I would LOVE to see someone pull that shit with me. I am never disrespected in the gym, i am friends with all the regulars, owners, etc. and always get along and usually help them out with shit like i work there. People like this have alot of balls, i bet if you got up in her face she would have backed down. There is no need to do that to people who did not make the mess. She should have booted the people not putting shit back not freak out and boot everyone. I would report her to the athletic department head.

 

[iggy]

bad thing was, it was her first day and she decided to ego trip. . . . I know some other people who work there but they weren't around

 

[SCREW]

i know a guy at me school and every single day he benches, and its just flat barbell bench press, EVERY SINGLE DAY

 

[iggy]

hahahaha... ive seen that
i have a friend that has this split
M - Chest
T - Bis
W - Chest
TH - Bis
F - Chest
S - Bis

ill quote him.... "your main muscles that the girls like are chest and bis, so thats all you gotta work. forget legs, back, shoulders".
ridiculous

What a c*nt.

New kid manager at our corp gym comes over and introduces himself whilst I'm spotting this guy max out on 225 bench presses. He's approaching 20 reps and still going string when this prick comes up and starts talking.

Kid: "Hey guys, having a good workout?"
Bencher: puff "FUCK OFF!" puff
kid looks at me
Me: "You heard the man - we're fucking lifting here!"

Look on his face was priceless.

 

[viciousness]

I officially hate anyone who works at my gym, they think they know but no jack shit. And I recently found out only 3 are ACE cert the rest have cheapy paid for cert's with no test! what gives?

 

[musketeer]

Quick one for you:

I workout at my home gym these days and don't get to see these peckerwits regularly. Last week I was practicing jerks when I managed to catch my chin on my first rep with 200bs. Nearly knocked myself out cold. Hit my chin and just let go of the bar. Took about 3 seconds to register, after the weights crashed off the floor.

WHAT A MORON HEY?

haha I did that warming up with like 135 on the bar hit myself right in the chin and I almost knocked myself out. I had to rest about 10mins before even attempting to continue.

On a side note, my new school gym has trainers from 4-5PM. I was warming up dead lifting 225lbs not really caring too much about farm just trying to get my blood flowing and this guy comes over and gives me a lecture about how it was a lot of weight and wanted to make sure I had good form. He wouldn't leave me alone I think he thought since no one has done over 3 plates (I goto a pussy ivy league college) that I might hurt myself.

Two days later I am doing squats and some kid asks to join in. I'm warming up and he was saying that I went too deep in my squat (olympic style), and his 1/20th ROM were a lot better. I still out squatted him which was great.

No one realizes how difficult squats can be when they are done correctly (full ROM). Our gym has a ton of people who can 1/2 smith squat 300 lbs. I must look like a total pussy doing 185-225 atg, but ditch my ego and work my body correctly.

We have the usual assortment of rack curlers but that doesn't really affect anybody but myself on squat days.

Major gripe about my gym is the absence of loose barbells. The only bars available ar on the benches and squat racks which basically forces someone who needs to do deads to tie-up a rack or steal a bar from a bench. This I would call the 'dumbasses who own the gym' thread. LA Fitness. Oh well, inexpensive and close to home and more weights than I could ever hope to lift but wish for a more hardcore atmosphere.

 

[artificialaspirations]

Oh please get a pic of that even if u have to use a cell phone!!!! I want that for my avatar!!

I still see the guy who used to do this at the gym...apparently someone told him what a toolbox he looked like and must have stopped. Mark my words, if I see someone drinking from a gasoline can again I will take a picture. I'll make it obvious when I snap it, too.

 

[SaiBoT]

There something even more stupid than seing somebody doing half squats, which is a short guy doing half squats. There is one of these morons at the gym I workout and the guy thinks is fucking hardcore and mistreats other members being an asshole all the time. his squats look like a rabit trying to fuck the lady bunny.

Another is the kind of moron who does half scott curls and quoting Charles Poliquin as if he was "pinguin having an epileptic seizure..."

 

[Jocques Straap]

Had to share this one...

Ever so carefully, our moron takes his time and lines up 3 med balls about 4 feet apart. A quick breath, and some time to focus, and he attempts to stand on the first ball. Success! Knees slightly bend, arms out head up. He struggles to balance on the first ball. Then with a violent leap of faith, our moron jumps into the air, attempting to land gracefully on the second med ball. Failure!! The ball slips out to the left, he falls right and lands flat on his back. The ground shakes. I burst out in laughter and our moron quickly gathers himself and rises to his feet.

Who seriously goes to the gym, and attempts to jump around on medicine balls?

I wear my ipod , and try to make as little eye contact.
One day I was resting between sets and watching the activity in the gym. I was watching the telephone yackers, doods standing around, little girls doing stiff legged deadlifts infront of the boys, the magical floating ass of one dude bench pressing I though his spine was gonna snap
Shit made me sick I wanted to round them all up like cattle and herd them out the door and tell them to fuck off somewhere else.
Out of about 40 people boucing around the gym doing nothing i would say 10 could have stayed. 3 guys that are serious
and a handful of women , they have on ipods also , make little eye contact and bust their asses off and avoid the fools also.

Boy sometimes these people that step into a gym should be sat down and told to watch some intructional videos on how to work out correctly and use the machines properly.
