Focus

One of the most important tools for an awesome workout is your mind. Get yourself into a positive frame of mind and decide which body parts you're going to train beforehand. Psyche up for the workout; imagine yourself lifting the weights, doing the exercises, lifting more than ever before! Listen to your favorite music on the way there, or just before you leave. When you get to the gym, you should be ready for WAR! Think about your workout as you change into your gym gear, imagine your putting on your armor, then go out and ATTACK!!! Go directly to your first exercise, say, bent-over rows, do a couple of moderate weight warm-up sets, load on your working weight, clear your mind, think only about the set you are about to do. Move in, grip the bar, focus, lift the bar explosively, and fire off those reps! Stay intense, a good set releases adrenaline and endorphins, which make you even stronger, naturally! Stay focused, if people talk to you, remember to tell everyone to "Shut the f___ up and train"! Isn't that why we're here!

Good Post.... I got into a rut in my gym, where I was nice to people..... yes... that was a mistake..... Now everytime I am in there, they joke with me..... and it throws off my concentration.... I like to wear a walkman, because then people don't bug you.... but I have a workout partner.... so I can't..... I gotta start being mean.......

people suck.

Just don't make eye contact with anyone. What i found that works exceptionally well is that I kind of mumble weird shit to myself but just loud enough where others here it...they usually just leave me alone...

i can picture you crazy mothers walkin around the gym mumblin to yourselves, lookin like your going to kill someone.
be afraid, very afraid!!!!!!!!:evil:

It's too bad that you have to ignore people or not make eye contact to get a good workout it. Too many people are just in the gym to socialize and pick up chicks and vice versa for some girls.

I want to get in, work out, and get out with as little talking as possible. If you see me in the gym leave me alone. :angry:

yeah and nothing bothers me more then when im purposly ignoring someone who comes towards the machine im on, and i have my head phones on blast, my head looking down and they tapp me on the fucking shoulder, i hate being touched in the gym

Yeah, no to9uching in the gym please. Unless it's a hot chic in the showers.
