The dumbass workouts some crazy people do in the gym.

[starskulker]

I can't believe some of the silly shit I see certain people do in my gym. There is this guy who wears a black karate ghi in the gym and whenever I see hime he has got one arm in one of the handles of the cable crossover and his "Foot" is in the other handle on the other side. He proceeds to try and do karate moves while hoioked up like this. Every time I see him he's doing some silly ass thing that I think he thinks is helping him and I'm just weighting for the day he hurts himself. I have seen people try to tell him that the things he does are going to hurt him but he never listens. We also have an older lady that I guess is a past ballerina or somthing that does all these silly ballerina hand movements when she gets on the cable crossover also. She's wearing headphones and is totally lost whipping her head and hands around while she's on the machine. It's the funniest thing. Sometimes she get's a full audiance of people just standing and looking going "WTF?"

I wonder if these people will ever "Get it" that there is a right way and a wrong way to work out!

I personally enjoy the guy who shadow boxes in front of the mirror. Im white but its always some white punk with an attitude who thinks hes a thug. Oh yeah and its funny my gym has punching bags set up about 50 ft away.

We had some old guy in the gym last week, he was just kinda wandering around and he started to talk to himself. Abunch of us were chuckling at the old coot. The next thing I see is this guy getting into a backpack he has next to the wall and taking out a 1/2 pint of booze and taking a deep chug off of it, puts it back and takes out a water bottle and chases it down. After about three times of hitting his bottle hes looking and sounding pretty drunk and then he goes over and trys to lift the weights off of the military press with a pair of 45's on it (luckily he coundent even get it off the rack, he just mumbled something about the damn weights being too heavy today). A couple guys went over and talked to the manager before the old guy hurt himself. Anyhow, it was pretty amazing seeing someone using the gym for their personal bar.

There's a guy at my gym who wears a scuba shirt every time he works out and his workout partner wears nurse scrubs. They are a silly pair. At the end of their workouts, they take off their shirts to let their flab hang out and admire their 'builds'.

Damn I could write a book with the awful shit I see everyday. And it seems to be even more pronounced now as I'm doin two sessions daily to prep for a show. Let's see, what have I seen recently??? Oh there was guy doing power cleans with one arm at a time using dumbells. On the 5th rep it flew out of his hand and almost landed on someone's head. Then there's the guys that get 3 reps with 225 on the bench and proceed to add a quarter to each side and then get stuck under the bar. The attire isn't too bad at my gym, aside from the guys (both young and old) with a puss gut wearing under armour. I'll admit, I have a shitload of UA gear, but I have a hookup at a sporting goods store and it really is good stuff if you're constantly in the gym sweating you ass off. I think what gets me the most is the B.O. I train twice a day and shower the same amount of times. There's so many people at my gym that just smell like fucking death. It's actually enough to make you woozy. But there are just so many people that have NO IDEA what they're doing. Like getting under the smith machine and doing calf raises off the ground?? One time I saw a lady trying to use the assisted dip/pull-up machine and she basically was just riding it. She wasnt bending her arms, but rather, bringing her knees up into her chest. And DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE "PERSONAL TRAINERS". It seems that everyone, regardless of age, sex, or fitness goals, is doing walking lunges up and down the gym when being "trained". What these PT's don't know could fill a book.

But you know, it's been my experience that you cant have it all. I joined a really, really harcore gym about 2 years back and loved it. The only cables they had were lat pull downs and crossovers. They have dumbells up to 220, loads of power racks, etc. But it was so ghetto that my locker kept getting broken into. So I guess you just have to make the best of it.
