I say first off, when i am in the gym, i don't usually let anything bother me, I just put my headphones on, blast my metallica and go in a state of my own. But today, I went to the gym aroung 6:30 this morning and i see this guy. He was about 5'8 150lbs,head shaved, around 20 yrs old. That's fine, everyone has to start somewhere. But i happened to notice when he was pressing the weight on the bench press he had no teeth! Or so i thought, i went in for a closer view to see if i was seeing things, It turns out he was wearing a black mouth piece. I had to ask him why he wears it, he says he only wears it when he lifts so that he could look mean & nasty and try to intimidate others in the gym. What the fuck is all that about? What an idiot. I just cracked up laughing when he told me this, laughed right in his face, couldn't help myself. Anyway, thought i share this with ya, a friendly reminder of the morons in the gym.

I remember a couple of years back Aaron Baker was endorsing that mouth piece in all the magasines. Supposedly it stops you from grinding your teeth together while max effort... IP: Logged |

i have never used a mouthpiece while lifting before, but i have had a dentist make me a rubber piece to fit between my upper and lower teeth to prevent me from grinding while i lift. i used to grind quite a bit when lifting and it caused major headaches for lengthy amounts of time post workout. now i just concentrate on keeping my mouth a little open when lifting. i know it sounds funny, but it seems to work for me. lt IP: Logged |

damn, thats sound kinda stupid, especially if that is really why he was wearing it. but, I was actually think'n of get'n one because I have a bad habit of extending my lower jaw and placing my lower teeth outside my upper teeth and biting down. I dont know why the hell I do this but sometimes my jaw hurts like hell so it cant be good. IP: Logged |

I do that myself sometimes because i have a habit of grinding my teeth when i lift.You should have told mr.billy badd ass that the only way he could intimidate anyone is by maybe gaining about 70LBs.Than you should have said it just makes you look like you don't brush your teeth.some people are just born dumbasses.... ------------------ IP: Logged |

That pisses me off to no end, I mean about the seasonal a-holes. They show up in april, take up all the cardio shit, they are loud, most of the time all they do is talk, and look around to see if any chicks are checking them out in their wife beaters, meanwhile they all look like shit and always will. Once it gets too hot they are gone. That is the only good part. Only thing worse is the ones that start a cycle, have no idea what they are doing, I swear to god this one dude would weigh himself like 3 times a night and announce how he put on a pound since he got to the gym an hour ago, forgetting he just drank a gallon of water while he was trying to train. On top of that their form is completely incorrect and they are always lifting way more than they can handle, I have watched more than one asshole hurt himself and his buddy spotting him at the same time. Sorry for the rant, I hate assholes in the gym. ------------------ IP: Logged |

DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT GUY, BUT I WAS TALKING TO A COUPLE OF POWERLIFTERZ IN THE GYM AND THEY WERE TELLING ME THAT YOU COULD GET LIKE 1% OR 2% MORE WEIGHT IF YOUR WORE A MOUTHPIECE. ANYONE ELSE HEARD THIS? IP: Logged |

Around here, the seasonal assholes come out in the first week in January. "New Year's Resolutioners" I like to call them. They're gone by the second week in February. At least I know their good money (for the next year at least) will go into keeping the gym open for me. Scarriest thing I ever saw was some chick, obvious bodybuilder (big brute chick-roided out, Otomix wearing and all) had her teeth (K9's) filed down to look like a vampire. What a freak. And I had just gotten back from Venice, so she asked me if that was Venice Beach East (Some piece of shit hole in the wall gym on the East Coast). I said no, it was from the real Venice Beach in L.A. She said she had never heard of it before ???!!! Do you believe that? ------------------ IP: Logged |

I don't see a problem with a mouthpiece per se, but just for intimidation? Now, that's a problem. At a serious gym, size is the only thing intimidating, unless you go to my gym with convicted felons -- now THAT's intimidating! Maybe he was just trying to say something witty because he was impressed with your size? Just a thought... ------------------ IP: Logged |

Hi All, As we are on the topic. It really gets my piss when you are doing a work out at your own pace and are doing a set and finish and you get a guy following you around lifting a little more than or putting on double what your repping with and lifting it twice. Pisses me off major style i used to go down the gym to lift weights not play little sad "I can lift more than you can games" I go to a private club now so i dont get the problem but does it annoy you..? ------------------ IP: Logged |

The thing that kills me is the guys who are there just to go through the motions. I sometimes try to offer advice to others like that they should squat lower, or controle the weight more, and they just give a strange look go back to their piss poor attempt at lifting. I even told the streangth trainer at school that the guys were not doing things rite(I am not a jerk, just want to see guys that I associate with get the most out of their training) And he just overlooks it.

Have you seen this in your gym? I have this person in my gym that claims to bench roughly 184 kilos. This is only when his partner is spotting him. I had the pleasure of spotting him with a mere 143 kilos. and amazingly he lowered the weight onto his chest and did not move again. I did not move until I lifted roughly fifty-percent of the weight for him and put the weight onto the rack for him. IP: Logged |

The worst are the gyms at universities. I was a weight room attendant when I went to school so I have seen it all.... The worst times are during the first three weeks of the fall semester. The gym it absolutely mobbed with these skinny guys that we used to refer to as "speed bumps". They would work out in packs of 5-7, ask you stupid questions that require a seminar of an answer i.e. "how are you able to do that much weight", and etc. And they always want to work in with you....example...I've got 225 on the bar for incline and they ask if they can get a set. "Sure" I say, moving over to strip the weight down to the bar. But the little fucker throws himself on the bench, unracks the weight that proceeds to crush him, and then expects you to upright row it off of his candy ass! Believe me....I could go on and on forever about this topic. IP: Logged |

In my gym, the people pack in there during the winter. It is part of a 3 campus high school campus. There are always 5 or 6 punks hanging around the benches etc. bullshitting. I ask them if I can get the bench from them and they say they have a few more sets to do. Then the little fag-ass-punks continue to talk. Then I do not ask very nicely the next time. It is amazeing how tough those dickheads are until they see you stack on the weight and pound out reps and get up red faced and breathing like a bull. That will shut them up most anytime. I love gear!!!!!!!!!!!!! ------------------ "Pain is weakness leaving the body>>>" IP: Logged |

Yeh, went on vacation a few weeks ago. Found a gym that seemed descent. Found three guys doing smith machine shrugs with an attitude....For like an hour! They were locals and gave my brother and I some dirty looks. My 13 year old brother then proceded to out shrug the while I did heavy sets of atf and deadlifts while staring them down all red faced and pumped. They did not have a shity grin after that. ------------------ IP: Logged |
