How to blow yourself in the gym

irontime · 10-07-2003, 09:46 AM

I'll admit that this wasn't my idea, but I did see it done last week.

I was walking into the weightroom and their was this average built guy and at a quick glance he had 315 on the bench press and he was just pulling off the reps on them

I'll admit I was impressed, but I did notice that the plate in the middle was a bit darker than the 45 lb plates that were on the outside and the inside.

Well whatever.

So a couple days later I was doing lat pulls and I'm by the heavy lift platform and they have a bunch of different color weights but they look HUGE, the biggest one was this red one and from affar I'd say it weighed 75 lbs. Got closer to it, 45 lbs.

Okay, then I see the darker weight that buddy had on the bench........ You'll love this. 10 fucking pounds!

The damn thing was just as big as the 45lb plates but he wanted to blow himself that badly that he stuck it in the middle to look like he was benching lots. Damn did I have a chuckle

Geez...considering what IT usually writes about, was anyone else thinking that post was going to be about something totally different?

I've heard about those plates but have never seen them.

You're not the only one, ponyboy. I've never heard that expression used the way IT used it.

You know, that thing that you are always doing whenever a guy walks up to you in the street and throws you a quarter.

You better hope no woman in the world figures out how to do that

Or that will mean the end of you and the rest of the male population as we know it

.... you do techincally qualify as male right?

Too bad, what a cool place it would be.

But back to the story, I can tell that these pretty colored weights are going to provide me with lots of entertainment in the gym. A couple of days ago some guy was doing 'clean and jerk' (whatever the hell it's called) and instead of using one plate on each side with the 35 pound plates, he had to put on two of the pretty colored ones that made it look a lot heavier than what it was. The idiot was pretty much screaming with every lift and I couldn't help but laugh. I think he noticed cause he looked at me laughing and stopped lifting and made his quiet exit out of the gym
