This Girl Tonight...

soxmuscle · 11-23-2005, 06:35 PM

at the gym came up to me midset, i was squinting and grinding trying to get the last few reps up, and she taps me.. i don't move, fight another rep up.. she taps me again.. i say "hold on" and i finish my final rep up.. i take my head phones off and she goes:

"i've been personal trained here and you're not doing that excercise right."

I looked at her, and with a smile, laughing hysterically inside, i wanted to hear her explanation. She tells me that "if you stop in the middle of the set (I took a few breaths for each of the last three reps before starting them) you're allowing oxygen in your muscles and you won't grow. what you need to do is lower the weight and have a fluid motion throughout the set."

She walked away, I was in shock, and that was that.

Now i agree that I probably shouldnt be taking as long as I did, especially on the last two, but it was freaking tough. Is that really a negative and is anything this whore said true?

Squaggleboggin · 11-23-2005, 06:39 PM

So, by her logic, one who deprives himself of oxygen will grow and one who breathes will not. Suddenly, so many things make sense now...

I've heard of many training methods where you do things like 20 rep sets with squats using your 10RM weight. You HAVE to stop to catch your breath. You can, of course, take breaks between reps. If you didn't, then you wouldn't really be pushing yourself that much (depending on how many reps you do of course - you shouldn't really need to with two reps or something like that).

Maybe she should learn a little something about weight room safety. Never, ever be blatantly stupid enough to touch someone in the middle of a set unexpectedly... EVER.

Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a bitch?

TJ Cline · 11-23-2005, 06:44 PM

If anyone tapped me when I was squatting I would tell them to fuck off!!!!

And if they worked at the gym I would report them to the manager......explaining the danger they had put me in as well as the danger they had put the owners of the gym in by her reckless and unprofessional behavior.

She said she was 'personal trained' there. Whether that means she is a personal trainer there or was trained by one at that location, I don't know. Either way, reporting her would be a good idea. I wonder if you can sue someone and try to get them to stop going to a gym... Hmm...

**Mudge** · 11-23-2005, 07:39 PM

We had a member here who explained how an interuption during squats left him with a lifelong injury.

I would have had a hard time containing my fury, honestly I would have pretty much demanded for them to fuck off and stay away from me.

NEVER INTERUPT SOMEONE IN THE MIDDLE OF A SET ESPECIALLY:

Squats or Olympic lifts

I want to see someone ask a question when someone has just completed a clean and jerk, and then get the weight thrown at them.

To me it means, she was personal trained there, by someone who may not know much anyway.

**Dale Mabry** · 11-23-2005, 08:07 PM

I would have said to her, "But the voice in my head told me to do it this way." and then walked away saying to myself, "...but I don't want to stab her, last time you told me to stab someone I got sent away for a very long time..."

**Mudge** · 11-23-2005, 08:09 PM

If a 17 year old got sent away for a very long time, he would probably be in his 40s. How about something with poop instead of a knife.

She doesn't know what the Hell she is talking about. Oxygen is entering your muscles all day long. Blood carries oxygen. I don't care if you're doing a 3RM. There is still oxygen going into your muscles. It may not be sufficient to power the action at hand, but it is still there.

Tell that bitch to never ever touch anyone in the middle of a set ever again. I will fucking kirk on your if you touch me while I'm doing squats.

correct-a-mundo... keep in mind, this is a little family gym with personal trainers who know nothing..

hp192003 · 11-24-2005, 03:21 AM

Both my dad and i have had a similar incidents like this.

On flat bench press i ony go to 90' because I dont want to aggrivate my old old rotator cuff injury so i drop the weight and make the movement really focused.

So... this unmuscled guy decided to correct and say that I should go all the way down and bounce it if i have to to finish the rep. I was infuriated but decided to just passify him.

You should of took her to the back room and got a blow job. Then told her that you have had professional blow jobs and that she needs to go all the way down on it, not part way as this can cause less fluid in the penis prohibiting full ejaculation.

lmfao I second this idea..

but anyways about the whole touching you situation..I'm only 15 and I know not to touch anyone while theyre doing a workout ESPECIALLY squatting

this girl is a dumb bitch, at least she could of waited till you didnt have 200 lbs of weight on your shoulders to tell you that you were doing it wrong, im sure the extra 2 reps wouldnt of killed you..

fucking dumb bitches, theyre worthless

Ah, with age comes great wisdom. A younger man like myself could never have come to this analysis of this situation. Thank you.

What??? you don't take paypal?? I personally don't like to bother people even after they're through a tough set for a minute or so anyhow. If you do, all you're gonna get is a hand held out to tell you to give them a minute to catch their breath anyhow, or they'll just blurt out something unable to be put together as a sentence anyhow.
