Things that Piss Me off at The Gym

[natglutes]

What really pisses me off are people that are talking to you in the middle of my set........
Girls that are using light wimpy weights in fear that they are going to get HUGE and Muscular........yeah keep on waiting.
People that use their cell phones in the middle of their work outs.
Girls that use so much make up and hairspray just to look good for the guys, they dont even sweat.
Or the same people that only use cardio year after year and they still look the same.
Guys that are there for socializing not working out...
Nuff said

Nat,

I forgot about those damn cell phones man those piss me off too especially real obnoxious ringers. Also the girls with light weight. The other day this lady was doing curls with 2 and 1/2 pounders I go, "why bother why don't you just drink beer at least you can get a buzz from curling a beer can."

I avoid the curling in the squat rack by doing legs on monday, as monday tends to be the day that the bench presses are loaded.

the girls in the makeup is very common here. I don't know , but women are too obsessed about their looks. I don't think men notice such small details. I love chicks, and that's how it is. No need for some tommy girl sprays before the gym. I love their natural smell.....

o, and i hate the fat ass trainers telling you YOU SHOULD DO THIS while staring at your physique, which happens to be much better than his with his man tits.
blow me

Things that piss me off.

There is one guy who want everyone in the place to know he is going to be doing squats. So he sets the rack up a half hour before he is going to do anything. He occassionally walks over to do "warm up" squats, with no weight. Would you just do them for christs sakes. I need to get in there to do my curls.

I also hate the people that don't seem to understand that you can use the decline bench for more than doing sit ups.

there are always a couple of guys that look like they've never worked out... then they walk by and try to give you pointers... oh i hate people like that!

What pisses me off in the gym:
1) people who just stand there and stare at you while you are doing a set, or partners who come over to where you are working and stand 2 feet in front of you and start bullshitting until your set is done and then ask if they can work in- but the catch is they have to either change the bar or strip all the weight. Instead of asking how many sets I have left.
2) people who do not posses the simple laws of gym etiquette. Walking directly in front of you as you are grinding out reps, jumping on your bench when you are switching d-bells for your next set, smelling like they should be embalmed, grunting from first rep of warm up set till last set.
3) girls who walk around like every guy there wants them.
4) people who do detail exercises when there is nothing to etch detail into!

that last one really burns my ass!

kracken,

You lost me on that last one. What are you talking about?

But the worst thing is when they ask for a spot. It pisses me off when some guy is on the Bench Press, does 1 rep, then expects me to do my back in lifting it off his chest. This is generally followed by a shaking of the head and some lame excuse of how they did more last week, or the week before that, when you know that’s not the case.

Peace

Or even worse, they try two or three more reps.

kracken,

Sorry for not going into detail about that.
What I meant was the guys who do do cable crossovers when all they have are nipples for a chest, or high cable curls with no arms to detail.
I never see these people do the basics for size, and they never show improvement. I could just be low carb crankey though.
