Same Old Story - Different Day

[natural-mike]

Same old $hit story, I belong to the local Chrome and Curl because they are open 24 hours and can accomadate my schedule.

Its full of all b*tches who gell their hair, wear wife beater tank tops sporting 12 inch arms, they wear gold chains, and jeans and talk on their cell phones while working out, and thats just the people that work there, so you can imagine the members.

I was pulling heavy singles and getting really hyped becuase I felt strong yesterday ( you know the days where the heavies feel like warm up sets)

I pulled my 5 bills and after locking it out dropped it and it may a cute little BOOM echoing across the entire gym. I was fu*king PUMPED and this little b*tch a$$ guy who works their came over and said "take it easy boss your killing me" although I was wrong in my response, I promptly replied "since I'm your boss, then your f*cking fired, so f*ck off"

Thats when he left and brought "the crew" over, the whole staff , and they noticed I was using chalk which clearly states on the sign on the wall that the use of chalk can result in immediate termination of my membership, so I got called in the office and talked with the manager and he told me to chill out and no chalk or next time I'm gone and no refund. Here is the kicker of the story, his last words to me were "This is not that type of gym" rather than getting started I left alone.

I know you have seen this post from others a thousand times, but it helps to vent.

I'll never forget that phrase in my life "This is not that type of gym"

I would kill for a garage right now.

Peace,
Mike

I really thank God I've never had to deal with crap like that.. I fear that I would surely pull a "Nobby" on them

"Pull a Nobby!" Bwaahahhahaha...

that sucks

sorry about your trouble there. maybe you could write the owner a letter, telling him he's excluding members if only a certain type of training is allowed.

Suprised they don't have that saying in Neon Lights above the juice bar. Right next to the one that says, " Not THAT type of juice bar."

"Pull a Nobby!" Bwaahahhahaha...

Somebody needs to send Nobby and the Victorian Guy over to that sissified gym for some asskicking!!

 

[I'D RATHER BE DEADLIFTING]

That shit kills me. Irish is right, you wil never look back. I am so thankful for my home gym. It is worth every penny for a serious lifter.

First off, Hannibal..........classic!!!...I almost wet myself on that one.


Gentlemen, I am unfortunately still in my small New York apartment work 14 hour days mode of life. Once I buy a home (whenever that is) I do intend to create the master home gym, perhaps forming the Eastside Barbell Club.

There will be 2 simple rules to the gym.

#1 you must have chalk on some part of your body in order to enter
#2 you must have one item or garment in your gym bag that says "Inzer" leave the Weider shit at home.


Thanks guys, sorry for this post as it is really venting and rambling, but its the shit like this that kills me. There is no way I'm setting a 500 pound deadlift single down gently, no fuck*ng way.

I got the same bullshit when I set my band up for squatting the other day, one of the staff members told me I should not be bringing my own equipment into the gym.

I'm honestly on the verge of hanging myself with my Average Green Band.

One last thing for JDarty, my borther thanks for always catching my back, but if you ever come down to New York,....especially Brooklyn, you might not want to use the term "Nobby" it means something a little different over here. just an LOL type thing
