Something That Bugs Me At The Gym

I always wipe my shit up.[/QUOTE]

sooo how much weight do you lift to get THAT effect?

 

Ha, that's funny. I actually call it "little man syndrome" aka someone wearing a tight tapout shirt walking like they are carrying a watermelon under each arm.

My favorite is seeing someone at a bar flexing while they take a drink of there beer. I just laugh to myself.

 

I see the privates at the gym here on post do that all the time. It usually involves curling 15-20lbs dumbbells, followed by tossing them on the ground like there extremely heavy and then shadowboxing in the mirror.

One bad thing about MMA becoming the in thing. Everyone thinks they are a professional cage fighter now.

 

2 things piss me off.....

~All the lard asses that show up Jan 2nd and crowd the shit out of the place. Stay home fatty! You know after mid Feb you'll lose interest just like last year, who are you trying to kid?

~When you pick a locker with nobody in site, bend down to tie your shoes and the next thing you know there's a naked guy on either side of you coming from the shower, dripping wet with their cocks 18" from your face.

*After re-reading the second one it's pretty much wide open for all sorts of smart ass comments but sounds hilarious so I'll just leave it.

 

My favorite is when you see some dumbass benching with dumbells and then they drop the weights on the floor like they just bench pressed king kong. Give me a f'ing break. Just put the weights on the floor without making a big show.

And P.S. nobody wants to see you lifting your damn shirt and checking out your stomach in front of the mirror.

 

I agree. I saw 3 guys yesterday flexing in the mirror and commenting on each other's abs.

 

My gym is pretty good only thing that bugs is:
the couple guys at the time I go have some of the worst B.O Ive ever smelt, and the old guys that take up a peice of equipment for 1/2 hr doing 3 sets, o also the dudes that grunt super loud for attention while benchin a whole plate!!!!!!

 

burn?? :

 

you know you like it!

 

Thread revival.

Also, when Mr. Crossfits do an assload of half pullups.

LOL. If you have to throw them on the floor, they are to heavy for you. Mirror posers crack me up. When I was in Iraq everyone wore t-shirts that fit. After the mirrors were installed in the gym, all these folks showed up in "shmedium" shirts that they could barely breath in.

 

I train in a pretty fru fru gym. Hopefully I can save up and buy a power rack and some weights to make my own garage gym. I also need a garage.

I hate curls in the squat rack. There is only one power rack where I work out. I have only seen maybe like 3 or 4 people including myself who regularly squat in it.

I usually "hog" that power rack or whatever equipment I am using when I am at the gym since my recovery in between sets is around 5 minutes. I do let people work in.

I also dislike the people who lift their shirts to check out their "hot abz" or people who think they have huge arms with their little brother's Tapout shirt on. I liked mma better when it is just starting. Now any douchebag with bad tattoos and watched one PPV thinks they are the shit.

 

LOL. Agreed. And WTF is up w/ wearing sunglasses and a slanted hat in the gym??

 

You mean like this...

What else can they do to look "cool"?

 

I go to La Finesse. I hate the following...
- Guys that wear sunglasses while working out.
- People who take forever filling up their huge water bottles when there is a line behind them at the fountain.
- People who don't clean the equipment when done with them. Dandruff and sweat on a bench are gross. Especially butt sweat.
- Workout outfits that are color coordinated with the shoes and misc accessories.
- People who aren't in shape telling me how to work out.

But I do think its funny when I hear people grunt "WHHHHHAAAAAT!!" when getting their swell on at the gym.

WHERES THE PROTEIN MA?!?!?

 

I've never heard that before.

 

Some good points here. Some more i experienced today:

Pull your bench away from the dumbbell rack, your in the way.
Quit throwing weights, they must be too heavy for you,
Full range of motion. Squat to the floor, bench to your chest or its too heavy for you,
Put your weights away, fuck how lazy can you be,
more to follow I'm sure.

 

Not cleaning up after yourself.(Weights, your nasty ass sweat, etc) I used to wipe everything down what I thought was good enough untill I got a f%$^ing staph infection on my face from the gym. Now I look like I'm prepping it for surgery when I clean shit off before and after I use it. Dont grunt, scream, or throw shit while you lift. Drawing attention to yourself does'nt make you any stronger asshole. I know it's the gym and all but if you smell like shit before you show up it's only going to get worse while you're there, have some god damn respect for other people. It also irks me that everybody thinks their training for MMA wearing their tapout and affliction clothing at the gym. I can't even bring myself to wear my shit out of the house anymore because of all the douchebags wearing it. I remember watching UFC 1, just because you saw the latest season of ultimate fighter or heard the name Fedor does not not make you a complete douchebag. The gym is not a social club, don't spend time showing off looking like a prick or a total c u next tuesday standing infront of the mirror flexing and posing while you get an erection looking at how awesome you think you look. Don't stand blocking equipment refusing to move while others are waiting to use it. Just because there is a locker room with showers does'nt mean I want to see your cock 8 inches away from my face as you floss you ass with a towel while I put my shoes on.

 

Thats why I say "Thankyou TapOut for allowing me allowing me to instantly identify douchebags without even having to talk to them"

Some bars and clubs here in Calgary have a "No fightwear Clothing" policy for the dress standard to get in. Its not hard to figure out why.

 

My wife is wondering why I'm laughing. I'm reading all the posts and I've seen most of these guys over the years. Apparently it doesn't matter what part of the country we live in, these types are all over.

One of the worst I've seen was this dude walking around naked in the locker room longer than necessary. When I went to the sink area to wash up he was there still naked and blow drying his junk with the wall hair dryer. What the f@#k?
