Gym Idiot Sightings 2007

Okay, today at the gym I kept seeing things that I knew were going to bring me back to this thread.

The tall guy in the short shorts and high socks that read his paper, talked on the cell, did 10 mins of cardio, and left.

The PT who kept giving a lady long sets so he could chat on his cell.

A guy who literally took a 10 minute break between bench sets on the smith, only going down about half way.

And then this guy that probably used about 7 towels during his work out, leaving one on each machine that he used, then go grab a new one. People kept waiting on his old machines b/c they thought people were using them after seeing the towel.

lol, I just remembered on. I was getting wierd looks from this one skinny kid I had never seen before, it was like he was trying to stare me down or some shit. He was doing his swinging curls sets....then he rolled up his t-shirt sleeves. WTF, I have seen this a few times before too. Why is it these skinny shits are trying to show off their 11 inch arms. Do they honestly think they are impressing anyone?

I'm not being a dick either, I used to be a skinny shit with 11 inch arms. I was not one to try to show off. I didn't want to be noticed. Ok maybe I did but not by my own accord.

When I was a skinny kid I always wore long sleeves to cover my bread sticks. Huge motivater in my late teens ... and T-shirts were killer in my late teens when I finally started wearing them all the time. Rolled up of course.

I'm with you on that one. The attitude from the stick-boy gets old. I just attribute it to fear and loathing, wishful thinking and intimidation. I either ignore him or grimace with my face turned down ... my meanest looking angle ... till he look away. Sometime he follows me to a machine and tries to do what I did ... stick-boy trying to do 180lb backarm pulldowns :laugh:

They wanna be you fufu but are not able to get it up yet ... so they just look on and try to fake it :bulb:
 
Yes I think he felt threatened somehow. :thinking:

I'd be happy to help him if he came up and asked for some advice after I was done lifting. I think alot of guys have a war mentality in the gym and want to lifter heavier than the guy next to him, constantly one-upping and worrying about the other guy. By one-upping I mean curling the 35's instead of the 30's!

Seems like the gym is where everyone's ego gets turned fullblast. Except for the serious lifters because they aren't there to prove themselves to anyone, just themselves.

For the love of all that is good, please kill this guy.
 
Oh, I love the "towel reserver". At peak times they will use four pieces of equipment and cover them with towels, then leave for ten minutes as if they are reserved. Then when they finally come back and find you using the equipment they are like "didn't you see my towel?". No, it was thrown in the corner where it belongs, you yutz.

That's awful, but not as bad as my guy. Just leaves them there, lazy bastard. People are standing there thinking theyr being used.

I never pay attention to the towel. If I see somneone who is serious using equipment I yeild, if it's vacant I lift. In a public gym to tie up equipment you're not using is not acceptable.
 
Today there was this high school couple I'd never seen there before who were acting all lovey dovey and being smoochy. Get the fuck out of the gym if you are going to do that bullshit. I didn't see that kid lift one weight the entire time.

When my workout was coming to an end a group of high school girls came in and hopped on the treadmills and would not stop giggling. Fucking fuck!

Then of course there were a couple dudes shooting the shit and "working chest" the entire time I was there.

It's January!!! You can tell,,, those darn new year resolutioners (is that really a word???)

Don't worry - they will all be gone by Mid February if not sooner :D
 
I'm thinking and hoping sooner.
 
I was at the gym yesterday and this fat lady was trying to do leg extensions on the lying leg curl machine. Probably doesn't sound that funny but i swear i nearly pissed myself:laugh:
 
couldn't even find a parking spot at the gym today, luckily most of the people use the cardio equipment

gotta love the 6 guys doing cable crossovers together, tied it up the whole time i was there

Maybe she was doing leg hyperextensions. :hmmm:

nah i doubt it as she clearly had no idea of what she was doing. She then went to the lat pull down and did a whole one set bringing the bar all the way down to her waist, then she left. Without a word of a lie she was in the gym for maybe 5 minutes at the max.
 
a girl bumped into me from behind when i was doing a heavy set of good morning, she also accused me of sticking out my butt too far when i was doing that exercise.

hahaha, what a bitch.
 
yeah, I feel bad for people like these at times, I am grateful when I was younger that someone taught me correct form. I try to help, every once in awhile. Just yesterday I am in the gym doing my workout, keeping to myself listening to my iPod, when I see some kid doing bent over rows with a completely rounded back..flinging the weight around in every which direction, I tried offering a little advice such as, "straighten out your back", he completely ignored me and kept on. I hope the little shit was hurtin' today..haha.

How about the people that do a gazillion dips but only go down half way instead of parallel?? Makes me want to go over and push them down all the way :mad:
Click to expand...

quick tip, next tiem you see someone doing that. just stand with them, n say "oh, il spot you"
when they procede to go down, just say to them "bit lower, bit lower, bit lower" n explain they have to go all the way.

might seem a little forward at first, but its gotta be worth a laugh watching them.

I stopped doing that a while ago. I just mind myself and leave. If someone asks for help, sure I don't mind. However, even then people usually don't listen.
 
yeah, or is there is this guy gets me everytime..

For chest, he does just about every exercise known to man for chest and he'll stay for hours. I cannot help but wonder what kind of damage he is doing, I tried piping in on him once mentioning overtraining and taking rest days. He wasn't having any of that, he said thats for the weak. haha.

I get pissed at that kinda shit. When I'm on a roll get the hell away and do your thing ... whatever that may be ... away from me. I just wanna lift and go ... rude people get an ear full regardles of gender.
 
Today there was a group of women talking and one was sitting on an incline bench sideways the almost the ENTIRE fucking time I was there. Then there was another woman laying sideways on a flat bench talking to some dude for a while.
 
I saw a fat, middle aged guy in the weight room yesterday sitting on a bench with copies of Cosmo and Marie Claire with him. :wtf: Thought it might have been ALBOB.
 
I swear to christ...

This afternoon, an overweight, naked old man was in the locker room bent over a walker and was BLOW DRYING HIS CROTCH.

WHAT. THE. FUCK.

SAME!!!! Asian old guy, not fat, using the blowdryer inthe locker room! Standing up, legs spread, kind of mid crouch position, butt naked. WTF? I figured I'd be the only person here w/ a story like that.
 
What is it with old men getting naked at the gym. Us young guys dont strut around ass naked, If you are one of these guys and you are reading this CUT THE SHIT, there is nothing wrong with wrapping a towel around yourself!!!

Do cock pushups on your own time!

It's common for old fags to troll in the locker room. I just speak to management "If I knew this was a place that condoned *those* people I'd not have joined" ...
