Tired of this dumbshit...

[big in vegas]

I've been going to the same gym for a long time and it's been getting a bunch of fucktards in there lately. I'm not sure what the new obsession is, but there's a couple groups of guys that might weigh 150 pounds (yes, I'm not much bigger), but they're constantly lifting their shirts up and looking at their abs or turning sideways and staring at themselves to see if their chest is sticking out or who knows what. I'm sick of it and I'm needing to vent before I go punch one of them in the face

And to top everything off, their form is terrible and they are weak as hell. I'm not much bigger than they are weight wise, but I'm far stronger and look like I actually I go to a gym

You sound like me last week, lol. Its not funny really but kinda. Everytime I go, there are MEN that just stare and then whisper. I think its rude. There are a bunch of smaller guys that shave there whole body and I think they put more energy into shaving and posing then lifting. I keep catching them looking in the mirror from side-to-side. Again, Im new to the gym but I try to stay really humble. On Thursday I was doing an over-head dumbell for shoulders and this guy comes between me and the dumbells and lightly bumps me to grab the dumbells while Im fucking lifting, then didnt say excuse me. He then stood sooo close to me and was doing side-laterals, grunting like he was trying to say, "Im the big dog here". If this were like Lord of the Flies, I'd crack his fucking head wide open.
Anyway, thanks for posting, it helped me vent.

I don't get this from the guys that have been there for years, it's only these dip shits that are new there. And there's no way they can possibly think they look good (in my mind anyway), but they apparently do. Then I go in the office and they're talking to the owner about this and that from GNC so I know they're stupid as hell. I'd never pay for anything from GNC as they're highly overpriced, but these idiots don't know any better. And the one thing that got me fired up this week was I was doing a set and this one idiot was just standing beside me, then I go do another set and he came over that way. Then I'm doing another and he stands in front of me and starts posing in the mirror with his back to me, so I took my headphones out and walked over to him and told him to get the fuck away from me and to not pose in front of me when I'm doing a set. He acted like I killed his dog, I half expected him to get smart, but he acted like he didn't know what I was talking about

Thats hillarious. You got balls brutha. I dont know if I could do that. I would love to, dont get me wrong but my luck, it would be someones relative of a balh, blah. I have said things to people that I wish I could take back soo many times that I just dont cross that bridge anymore. Anyway, congrats on venting on that dumb shit. Maybe you saved him an ass-kicking. The Dude probably would have bitched slapped his ass

I just get tired of it, I'm not really an asshole, but I have an extremely low tolerance for ignorance. And I don't mind you posing if you're in the locker room, over in the corner by yourself or getting ready for a show, but just to pose when you're in someone's way or when you're flexing body parts that you're not even training is just ignorant and intolerable in my book

I thought I'd seen it all until today. There was a guy in the gym today (I know him, but he doesn't know me. He married someone's mom that I know so it's not that I know him personally, but I know who he is), he's in his 40s and he thinks he's still a young guy, he came in today strutting around like he owned the place, walking like a 21 year old in a bar (puffed up chest, arms out to the sides, hitch in his step, the whole 9 yards). Now first off, he's skinny as hell with a gut, nothing better than that. So anyway, I'm back doing lat pulldowns and low cable rows. He just sits down on the lat pulldown machine and adjusts the weight from where I had it. I had it at a medium weight, something around 170-190 and he moved it down to at least a few notches so I'd say he was looking at maybe 220, he did the first rep and couldn't get a second one. The first one was something I've never seen before, his back was basically parallel to the ground trying to get the weight down. Now all of this time I'm in between sets as I was super setting the 2 exercises so I thought I'd just watch this dumb ass jump in and then walk over when he was done. I was laughing so hard after seeing him do or should I say attempt to do 1 rep and damn near get pulled out of the seat as the weight slammed back down that I had to cut my sets short because I couldn't even be around the guy without laughing to the point where it would've been pointless to attempt anything.

I don't know if he got embarassed, but he went over to a bench and started doing crunches and that's all he did the rest of the time I was there. I'm not sure if he did anything after I left or not, but I got one hell of a laugh out of this

Im still amazed bc Ive been in my basement for so many years. I went in today and these 2 guys who were all tattooed up, which is fine and they had there MMA clothes on, walking around like they would punch someone at any minute. The one guy was strong but he didnt know what he was doing. He did a bench press, then looked around, walked around and talked. Id say 10 minutes between the set. I was doing back and I go to failure on most everything. These 2 guys werent breaking a sweat and I was exhausted as hell. Im the same size as these guys but I look like I lift for sure. I just wonder what goes through there head and I wonder why they do it and why cant they just fucking go away.
Sorry guys

there are many people, some good,some ugly.but we'll be on our own,like we'll keep on going to gym.

 

[MrPerfect]

sounds like every other gym in the country. just let them be and let them live the dream brother cause at the end if the day the joke is on them!!

My gym isn't too bad. The worst thing going on right now is this threesome of dudes that I've only ever seen doing bench press. I've seen them there four or five times now and never seen them doing anything but bench press. One of them is a big ole hoss, you know he was offensive line in high school. Another is smaller, but about as stong as the big guy. The third is weak and skinny. So, the two stronger ones will be on one bench with 225 on and the third will be on a second bench with 95 pounds. But, the problem is, my gym only has two bench press benches. They will each do a set and then stand around and talk for 10 minutes before doing another set. I sped them up the first time by asking if they were actually using the benches, but I don't want to deal with them every time. So, if they are there on my chest night, I usually just do shoulders first until they are out of the way.

There a bunch of idiots that go to the gym and the younger generation is even worse fellas. I see it at my gym too..the skinny 150 pounders with washboard abs and size 36 pants with a belt wrapped around 3 times and hanging to thier mid thighs..i found a useful way to get rid of them. When they are on my bench I talk out loud to my buddy that this fine chick is falling out of her shorts with her ass checks and big tits around the corner,, he agrees and the younger ones go to look..bam! bench is mine..lol

This makes me realize how happy I am that things are kind of back to normal at my gym. The retard high school kids stay at least 30' from me, move from a machine or area when I walk towards it, and make sure to put up their weights. I'm usually forced to be a total asshole at least once every couple weeks and I can't help it when I'm all jacked up on stimulants and focused on beating records. I can't remember the last time I had to go off on someone. I know most people would frown upon this, but being confrontational and loudly and sternly explaining gym etiquette to these ass clowns has worked very well for me.

BTW Big n wv I got the Tommy Kono knee bands and got to try them today for the first time. These things are awesome!! I have a thing about going heavy when I feel very strong (doesn't make sense) but I was banging out reps with 455 and it felt great!! Between the compression shorts and these knee bands I got to hammer my quads like I haven't in years!! I'm getting up to 500 next workout which I believe is heavier than I have ever gone w/o knee wraps! I see big quad growth in my future. I saw a couple of the high school kids crammed in the corner crying while I was squatting, they really looked scared

Who cares? I couldn't care less what other people are doing in the gym when I'm there. For the most part, people are idiots anyway so why should the gym be any different? Just ignore them, do what you're there to do, and leave. You not doing yourself any favors by letting it get under you skin.
