What makes you ill in the gym
I was in the gym this morning doing cardio for an hour and you get to see a lot of stupid crap that goes on!
Last week and to this day, here are some of the things that I think suck or is stupid! Squats: Dropping a whole 3 inches! Smith Machine and braggarts!: Bragging about the weight you push for Bench, squats and military press etc. Stiff legged Deadlifts. Dropping another 4 inches! Ooooohhh... that's tough! BTW, this poll IS multiple Choice!!!! Last edited by david : 01-04-2003 at 09:12 PM. |

I had 22 45lbs plates to undo on the leg press machine and those who use the leg press machine usually stack them next to the leg press machine... well, I usually strip them down really face, mind you, put them down nicely.....
Some fuk'n dweeb was on a frontal (MMAFITER description ) leg press nautilius type legs opposite of me and he had 4 45lbs plates and THREW them down and they were rolling around. I was WAITING for one of them to HIT ME!!!!!! ![]() |

1. People who chit chat on their cells while on machines...which they aren't even using.
2. Construction boot guys. 3. People who stare in the mirrors more than they work out. 4. "Diet" talk in the locker room or else where..."I'm being so good I only had ONE piece of bread, etc;" 5. People with over inflated egos in the gym who look down on others who are not on their same level (hey every one was a beginner once) |

Posers for sure. It was for that reason that I have been plagued with a serious back injury since 1989. There was this mutha F#$en Azz who had absolutely nothing going on in the muscle department that would take his shirt off in the middle of the gym and start flexing in the mirrors. On my 1st "run in" with this azz, I was doing squats with 625. My spotter behind me standing very close (as he should be),, Azz comes skipping through the Leg room with his shirt off and in hand as he bumped into my spotter who in turn bumped into me causing my upper body to go parellel with floor. Not thinking (forgot about the safety bar) I struggled to bring the weight back up and rack it. Well immediately my back was in spasms. If I could have moved I would have killed him.
a week or so later (back still screwed) I was doing seated overhead presses. I had my lifting partner spotting me when what do you know,, Azz comes skipping into that area. did a set of something or another and OFF CAME THE SHIRT!!! Here I am doing my last set with a weight over 250. My partner is looking at Azz posing and laughing at him. While I suddenly find myself stuck at the bottom going for that ONE "extra" rep. and NO spotter paying attention. Well I'm yelling at him to give me a "F"ing hand as he pulls it back up to rack. I lumber to a standing position (back problem ya know),, and ask him what the hell he was doing. He appologizes and says he was distracted by AZZ. Well that was the final straw. I ran over to that JackO$$ and slapped the S#$t out of him. Grabbed him by his skinny neck and plastering him against his posing mirror screamed more obsentities at him then then Linda Blair in the movie Excorist. I told him if he EVER came back to the gym I'd kill him. Needless to say he sold his membership. To this day I still have problems with my lower back because of that S.O.B. and it ruined my bodybuilding future. I was 260 back then with a 29 inch waist. After that injury, it got progessively worse over the next few months that I had to stop training completely for several years until a specialist got me back in the game but I'll never be 100% |

OK, this stumpy dude that wears blue jeans (not even the cool style.... wrangler and work boots (
), comes in and does Military DB presses and starts with 50 and ends with 70 lbs. His Butt is fat and dumpy-big and his neck is like a turtle. He walks slow like a turtle and stares at women........NOW that's a fucking GOON! |

I swear Dave If my back didn't feel like it did then, I probably would have hurt him. After he left, I think I crumbled in a cold sweat. the pain was unbelievable. After I jacked him up off the ground, My back went nuts. Horrible. I don't even like thinking about it.
