Question on Gym Bullies

So, I work out at the local YMCA. Wonderful gym. Plenty of friendly people, BUT, I have noticed a GYM BULLY. I have recently had 2 run ins with him. First off, I am by no mean a small guy. I am 5'10 and as of today 280. I could stand to stop drinking the beers to help the ole stomach. Anyway, on monday I show up and I see this fellow running over a BLIND gentleman that is being escorted in the gym to get to the machine he was at. That got me going. I held my tongue though. 30 minutes later I see him off on a shoulder machine across the gym. I was watching the smith machine and after about 10 minutes I went over there to switch things out so I could use the machine. He runs over literally and gets in my face. I stood my ground and didnt back down. Wasnt trying to antaginize him at all. I was just stating the facts. He literally told me to fuck off and bulled past me and throw the bench i was gonna use and replaced it with the other bench. So I held my mouth and just infromed the staff. Tuesday I didnt see him. So no problems. Then today, I go to the squat rack. He was nowere around, next thing i see him going to the preacher curl machine and starts loading the bar. He takes the weight clips and throws them on the ground. I stand there for a second looking at him, waiting for him to pick them up. Nothing. He just gives a quirky grin. So I ignore it. I start to do my workout. Not even 2 sets in, he intentionaly gets in my way to mess up my reps. That set me off. I went to the staff and informed them. 1 of the people wanted to pull him away and talk to him, and he got a attitude with them. 5 minutes go bye and he walks by and calls me a coward, a fucking coward. That got my goat. I called him out. He just laughed and kept walking. He continues to be a hostile threat. So I get the staff involved again.

Here is my problem, I cant change the times I go to the gym. I sometimes bring my son with me to the gym. I do not want him to see that kind of enviroment in the gym. 99.999% of the people are friendly and are more then happy to help, let you work in and such. Thats what I want him to see. But if this fellow does something while my son is there, I am liable to revert to training that I have tried to block out and pretend it never happened. It doesnt always work. sadly. I am trying to be the bigger person, and not create a hostile enviroment in the gym, and work with everyone.

What would you do if this was in your gym? If your son was there and this happened? I seriously need input to this wonderful problem. If this is the wrong thread I am sorry.

If it was me... I woulda probably did what you did. If it continues to not work... I'd wait until my son wasn't around and catch him outside and make him piss on himself. Do what you gotta do. Your a man, and one day your son will be too, and what would u tell him to do... That's me tho.

I just wanted to make sure I wasnt losing my mind. I know it takes a big man to walk away, and a bigger man to help you pick you up. Will see how the rest of the week goes. fingers crossed. Or might be on the front page of the newpaper. lol, lets hope its not that one.

It's different when you son is there. If mine wasn't I'd slap him across the face with a 10lb dumbbell. I'm a man at the end of the day... The first twor insults are on the house, the third YOU WILL be held accountable for. That's all

Find out who the president/ceo for that Y is. Get their email from the staff. Email the Pres and nicely tell them that u have tried on several occasions to have the staff fix the situation and he has an opportunity or else ur taking it to Y nationals. He'll fix it. Make sure u mention that he has been warned more than once and include that the guy uses extreme cursing when he addresses u.

Save the punches for a time when ur kid, and other kids, aren't around.

Rub butter all over the bathroom floor and watch him walk in 
 
Ok so next time he messes with you get right in his face as close as you can and firmly say who the fuck do you think you are? Problem solved
 
One of the problems with getting physical with this jerk is he will run to the mgmt. in one second and get you banned. Unfortunately, although smacking a turd like this down feels good, it also puts you on his level. His mom is probably paying his dues, and wiping his ass too. Take the high road, go to the manager.
 
Yeah bro alot of ppl hit the nail in the head...deal with it through mgmt...you would likely lose ur job if you get physical...also im sure if u brought ur son there one day and he pushes over ur son to get by and u saw that...no doubt ud pull a punch.....and lose ur job...etc etc... Talk to ur facility manager or email the head manager in charge and tell them about tje incidents with the old man etc.

wow never heard of such a thing in a gym. i would find a different gym, the environment of a gym is crucial to your success. its the Y and they aren't gonna do anything to him, a different gym would of banned him on the spot for that type of activity.. i know mine would of. the problem is the Y's management are a bunch of skinny dorks who have no clue what a gym should be. its the Y for goodness sake bro! whenever i have visited the Y where i used to live it was a bunch of retards (literally there was one creepy dude there that would stare at my gf when she would be at the pool the whole time, i found out that he was retarded from a car accident years ago otherwise i would have confronted him too), old people, and not a single person there was what i consider a real lifter. this dude you are dealing with obviously has mental issues and i would get the hell out of there.

also as far as your son leave him at home, you are going to the gym to workout period. i realize you probably like the Y cause they cater to families but if you want to be serious as a lifter you better find a real gym

the dude who runs my gym is a fucking horse, his biceps are the size of my head and he is there EVERYDAY either lifting himself or in his office stuffing his face.. THATS THE WAY a real manager should be. if some jerk acted like that he would of ran him out of there in 5 seconds ..

Same here.. I love my gym and the owner.. Hes in his 50's with 19 or 20" arms.. Real down to earth to
 
I just read the first post and now I'm pissed the fuck off. He'd make better use of his time playing in oncoming traffic.

It's not the high road, but hell I'd fuck with him right back. Mess up his reps, intentionally steal his machines, etc. but be very casual about it haha. Then if he got in my face, what's he gonna do? Hit me? Then I'll press charges, get his ass banned from the gym, arrested, and sue him on top of it. That'd take care of the dickbag.

Seriously though, management or finding another gym is clearly the way to go. If management doesn't take care of it, fuck em. Go somewhere else where they don't allow bullshit.
 
I would love to go to a different gym. Would love to find a hole in the wall gym. There are none in my area. unless I go over to seattle. I am not gonna lay a hand on him unless he crosses the line, and when he does, which I know he will, I will kill him. I will grab a 2 100lb dumbell and drop it on him, then take a 45lb bar and hit him in he head till I see his brains, then skull fuck him. Oh wait, I cant do that. Not in the Sand box. Maybe I will just cut his brake lines and laugh as I walk away. Or just follow him to were he lives and feed him to the bears. All have crossed my mind.

Lets see what he does today in the gym, if he shows up. I dont think he will. If he messes up my shoulder day I will be super pissed. Dont think the heavy bag can take mush more punishment.
 
Aim for the high road. If he messes with your son open palm him hard as fuck. Some things are worth getting in trouble for in my opinion , and messing with family is one Of them. But if he is only screwing with you and you can't go at another time , just stand your ground , use your machines and if he tries to intrude Just mosey on like his ignorance isn't worth your time, if he lays a hand on you then just charge him I'm sure others would back you up if he is harassing others. Don't kill him , not worth it nor is cutting his brake lines. Maybe a couple sliced tires but nothing life threatening :P


Ride it like you stole it!!
 
You havnt mentioned a description of this shit bag. If it came down to it could you kick this guy's ass if need be?

My son goes with me to the gym too and my wife is the bread winner so if someone tried to mess with my kkid or make me look like a fag in front of him I can afford to do 30 days if need be. But yes, he's the first little cunt that will call law enforcement if you touch him. The worst kind of loser scum bag.
We have this 24% fat spray tan jersey shore AAS summer muscles dick at our gym too. I hate his guts. But he's coordial when asked to move his shit and loaded barbells he leaves allover. I can't fucking wait ..... I hope I'm there when he finally blows out his back doing half assed deadlifts with his ass way up in the air.

Steve is dead on....the Y isn't a gym. It's a joke. Build a home gym or find a real gym.
 
I agree with the other guys. Try and solve it with the management first. But if that doesnt work get a ski mask and go to his house and beat his ass. Some assholes need to be taught a lesson. Or you can just buy a home gym. Elitefts.com has some quality equipment for good prices.

Haha I go to the Y sometimes and there is a creepy older bow-legged guy that is retarded from a bad car accident that used to strangely ogle at my ex gf, well all the girls.
 
Ya I can easily kill him. He is 5'8 maybe 175-190. I am 5'10 280. I think he has prison time, I have spec ops time. Not much of a challenge, just dont want to go that route if I dont have to.

Given the pysical size difference even if you have a fair amount of body fat I assume your not a fat slob. So he is not having any respect for the size difference. Not that he is supposed to be afraid of you because of the difference but hes obviously just a walking pile of garbage that needs a life attitude check. The kind of ignorant piece of shit that will sit there and grin in your face even if you told him you were about to go to the car, get your piece and blow his head off. Until you actually did it then he would cry and pee and whatever else ect ect... and if he escaped alive would then promptly run to the nearest police station.
Extreme measures are the only thing that teach people like this anything. So barring that I would either get him kicked out by going as high as you can in YMCA authority. Telling them that management refuses to do anything, give them the blind guy story, and even make some shit up, who is gonna dispute you?
Or, what would be the best option....go to a better gym. its not hard to get better than the Y as far as management and general clientel.
I'd give anything for a nice dark old powerlifter/meat head dungeon type gym in my area with no TV's going and Metal blasting on the radio constantly.
 
follow that bitch outside... let him catch a couple in the parking lot... problem solved AND it will feel sooooo rewarded... bust alllllll kindddddds of teeth
 
Yeah graffiti how did this turn out bro?

Get the people on your side. Get EVERYONE evolved. Have them all call him out on what he's doing. He's a bully, and probably doing it to get attention. Get the whole gym sweltering him to the cockroch he is!

I know what you are going through I go to those 10k sq ft gyms with 200 peps in there at once. I WO at 3pm tons of high schoolers show up right in the middle. I stand up to all of them constantly. Pick up ur shit, ur mom doesn't WO with you so pick up ur own shit. Once a week. It's life. Fuck him, don't go out of your way to start a fight but sure as fuck never back down.
Good luck bro, oh and most of these douches only last 2-3 months per year. So for sure he will be gone soon.

Noodles don't let that kid fire you up, he won't last here. As soon as he comes off and loses his gains because he had no base, he'll be depressed and take a few months off from the gym, and be back at square one.

And you look twice as good as him natty...pretty sad.
 
guys please lets not do this back and forth on here. take it to C&C.. remember what forum you are on, we cannot allow this type of thing to happen I know you all are venting and having fun but these things usually blow up and turn into flame wars.

post up a thread on C&C and flame each other all you want, but on here lets be serious and follow the rules so we don't turn into 99% of the shitty sites out there

Sorry steve, you are right.

back to the topic at hand, I agree with finding a new gym if you can't get staff involved and get this guy to leave you alone.

Fighting would be my last route, but don't get me wrong, if he ever touched me or my kid or pretty much anyone in the gym in an agressive manner, i'd drag him outside and embarass him.

I hear ya... I just didn't like his response. Ignorant and far fetched.

Back to the subj at hand.
Graf., there are so many promos at different gyms... 10.00 a mo and so on and they have day care, some with monitors around the gym to check on him. 120.00 a year will save you these type of headaches. And you will have better equipment to use.
Make the sacrifice bro.

Criminal10dinC and noodles1010, this is the wrong forum for flaming and fighting. You guys want to go at each other, take it to C&C, like steve said. And the next time a mod says to stop, I don't care who got the last word, you fucking both stop or you will both be banned ASAP.

no need to reply to me.
