Dumbellina - Okay, I know I said this would be about guys, but I'm sure at least one woman will read this. Anyway, Dumbellina is the epitome of what women shouldn't be doing in the gym. Her entire workout revolves around those tiny cast iron dumbbells that wouldn't give a toddler a good workout. I'm not sure what's she's doing with them, but it looks like her goal is to one day flap her arms and take to the sky. One of these days, I expect to see her gracefully soaring over the parking lot. The good thing is, I'm sure those nasty weights won't make her too big.

The worst I've ever witnessed was this guy who was wearing those 1970 striped jogging shorts, yeah, you know the ones. He was walking around the gym talking rather loudly to himself, making faces like there was no tomorrow. I was doing seated shoulder presses and he was about 10 feet to my left approaching the squatting cage. He then proceeds to load just about every 45# wheel he could find. He then yells at himself in the mirror, slaps his face and gets under the bar. He goes down maybe a foot and screams at the top of his lungs on the way down. By now a few more people are watching. On his way down the second time he screams but drops the weight straight down to the safety bars. Grabs hiss butt and runs out of the room. He actually crapped his pants, it was all over the floor. Needless to say he was never seen again!!! Don't be that guy

I believe Schez was rediculing the whole image ... Talking on the cell phone and the whole bit. I dont believe he was reffering to the guy who is bulking up and doing light cardio.

I noticed some things people hate at gyms,So I going throw my 2 cents in.I hate people who spit in the drinking fountain!There are restrooms with sinks for that kinda thing,but I hate going for a drink or fill my bottle and seeing mucus stuck in the drain holes.I seen an older guy do that at the gym,he was maybe 50 or so,I have respect for my elders,so I didn't confront him,I just went up to the front desk and told them they need to put signs at the fountain telling folks not to do that.

It's all in the consequences:

Telling on someone spitting in the sink = maybe a warning and a sign
Telling on someone juicing up = a fine and maybe jail time

Think about it.

Besides, spitting in the sink effects more than just that person. Unless the guy who was juicing leaves his needles around, it only affects him.

So QuestionGuy, don’t be that guy!

There is a difference between the two situations. The guys shooting up in the gym were doing it to themselves. But the guy spitting in the drinking fountain is doing it in the fountain that others have to use as it was not his personal fountain.

There is this rail thin blonde in my gym who must be 6 feet and about 120 pounds. Thin as a rail with arms and legs that look like twigs.

EVERY workout, she does these sissy one legged lunges on the Smith Machine, then does walking lunges across the gym floor. The rest of her "workout" is a combination of concentration curls, kickbacks and endless ab exercises.

I want to scream, walk up to her and yell "DO SOME SQUATS", then shove a muffin down her throat and yell "EAT EAT EAT"!!!!!!

Years and years ago, I saw two guys working out together. They were both actually built pretty well, but their routine was more like a comedy routine than a workout routine.

While the one guy was doing his benches, his training partner was standing on the bench doing, basically, a deadlift. There are spots and then there's sloppy form and let the other guy lift all the weight. Of course, both were screaming during this team-bench/deadlift exercise.

By the way, I'm Curt visiting from the http://www.emusclemag.com/forum/

There's a member whose MMI name is ironmagazine.com and who posted recently, so that's how I found out about your part of the Internet.

Check out MMI when you have a moment. I'll be sure to stop by here again. Never hurts to have more than one gym to work out in, right?

I've seen this more times than I can count. The spotter is practically upright rowing the bar all the while screaming, "ALL YOU ALL YOU"!!!

i don't really encounter too much of what's been discussed already, and I'm just a beginner myself so my form isn't perfect so who am I to criticise? but the thing i hate the most are girls at my university gym who go there and walk on the treadmill for 4 minutes, followed by a 30 second jog, followed by a 4 minute walk and repeat until they hit 20 minutes of time wasted. They usually come with a girl friend and just chat to each other, using 2 treadmills out of 6, and when it happens during peak hours I wish evil thoughts upon them ("slip! slip! slip!")

I train with many guy who shoot drugs, but they have enough respect for others to do it at home.

If I saw your sorry ass shooting in the locker room, I'd drag your fucking ass up to the manager myself!

My favorite is the two hour bicep workout guys. They start with DB curls, then BB curls, cable curls, preacher curls, machine preacher curls, hammer curls, incline DB curls, reverse curls, etc, etc. ...and they always have puny arms .
