I almost killed this kid at the gym
today, I'm in the middle of seated bent over laterals for rear delts when some fuckin asshole walks by and hits my right arm back a few inches with his legs. i yell something to the idea of "get the fuck outta the way'. I was raging!!!  i finish my set, throw down the weights and turn around. its a college gym, so every clown looks the same. i couldnt tell who it was, but oh my god was i pissed. i almost scared myself i was so mad.
luckily, my arm was ok. its the arm i have shoulder problems with my rotator cuff, so i am damn lucky. its hard enough trying to stay injury free without some fucking dickhead doing himself.
what u guys think?

I say....It's a college gym..What do ya expect...
I see where you're coming from though. Me...I probably would've stood up.....(even if I didn't know who it was) and made a general comment asking...."Please be careful walking around that you don't bump into other people while they're woking out...you can cause injury, etc.....please use your head while being in here or I'll find a way to revoke your privledges!" And do it.

Re: I almost killed this kid at the gym
These kind of things happen buy how in the world when you do something like that you can you not say "Oh excuse me, sorry" that's just common sense.

i had my headphones blasting and was in deep concentration, so i dont even know if the asshole apologized. it would'nt have done any good even if he did apologize....its common sense to watch the fuck out when people are workout out.
babs-you're too nice of a girl and don't understand some men. there was no way in hell i could stand up and say "oh next time you guys need to be more careful so i dont get injured" or "i'll have your privledges revoked". its not something guys, especially me, do or say. my way of saying that is telling him my roomate owns a funeral home, and usually i charge $50 to kill people, but for my own self i'll make an exception and do it for free.
he's lucky i didnt see who it was. it was kinda funny though, cuz i thought every kid that i saw looking at me for the rest of my workout was the asshole.

I would have fucked him up most likely, it is straight disrespectful to invade someones space like that, especially in the middle of a set. It has nothing to do with roid rage. That kid should've known better. people can get hurt in those situations, a gym is no place to fuck around in and walk with your head in the clouds. If someone can't comply with being focused and respectful then they shouldn't be in there bottom line.

True, but you dont walk around the gym like you are blind, pay the frick attention. Re-read Firestorm's horror story if you need convincing. I really dont want to be f#cked up for the rest of my life because some jerkoff didn't feel like paying attention or not being a jackoff while in the gym.

no offense hear but u obviously have not trained as intensely as u need to if u say something like that..how would u like to be squatting 300 pounds or so like Fire(probably more cause it's Fire)  and have some muthafucking kid run into ur back, possibly ruining ur career?if iwas Fire, i would have fucked that kid up so he would know never to do it again.

I hate violence, but I also have a problem with ignorance when my safety is at risk. If people are working out around you pay the f#ck attention! Have some respect for people, its the decent thing to do, I expect no less.

This really is a common problem at my college gym, as well. For one thing, these kids NEVER put a weight back - they toss it on the floor and you waste time looking for one constantly...and that's only a mild annoyance.
I slightly hurt my back doing squats - I don't wear headphones usually, but am pretty good at filtering out most regular noise - but this kid came up and stood next to me and started screaming across the room to a buddy...threw me off so much that I felt the pulling in my back right away. Luckily, it only hurt for a few days, but I was worried...AND pissed.
I WASN'T very polite about that - when I got that weight off me, I walked right over to that kid and asked him who told him this wasn't a damned theater stage and I wasn't there to be his fu*king audience! I didn't get an apology, but he shut up fast - the tyranny of being a lot older and a teacher...
It's bad enough when people yell at each other on the workout floor - but criminal if they are so ridiculously out-of-touch that they bump into someone doing a set!!!
I have nagged our rec center to get tougher about pushing some kind of etiquette ... like just because it's a public place doesn't mean anyone can walk in and act like no one else exists. That's exactly what people who YELL conversations in the gym, or bump into people, or try to ask you in the MIDDLE of a set if they can "work in" are doing...
I just hope you weren't hurt at all, Flex - I'd tear into someone if they caused me any more rotator pain than I've already had!!

I train @ home so don't have to worry about it. Only concern is possibly tripping over the dog or cat.

This is exactly what i'm saying  (we agree dead on as usual)
It is the most frustrating thing ever, cuz this college gym is a fuckin circus full of clowns. they half-heartedly lift bi's and chest every fuckin day hoping to blow up their pathetic excuses muscle so hopefully girls will notice.
i'm gonna find my old post "the diff. b/w BB's and weightlifters", it says exactly how i feel about these clowns.
