Man the one thing that is really driving me crazy lately at the gym is these freekin jealous fucks. I am a very hardcore lifter been lifting 4 to 6 days a week for the last 3 years. So I have developed a very good muscular physique. (I�ll post a pic as soon as I figure out how) There are these jokers that work out at the gym and all they can do is stare at me and my work out partner and talk like bunch of grammar school girls. The last straw was yesterday. I�m a very courteous person so I usually ignore these dumb ass kids but yesterday my partner and I are benching. This one big kid, found out yesterday he�s 17 so that explained a lot, comes up to us, I�ve got 290 on the bench, he asks how many times I can do this. I say 2 to 4 reps, he gives me this look like man you�re weak and says I can do this 10 times. I say, that�s great the kid was 6� 225 but fat so whatever then he says one day I�ll be bigger then you. I mean who gives a flying fuck if the guy gets to be 325, good for him. It�s not only him, but a couple of these freaks. There are these two big guys that work out they�re too and the other day I herd from someone that they talk about us too. They said that we come in here with baggy shirts on then we get all pumped up and take our shirts off to show off but they don�t have to do that because they come in big. When I herd this I almost fell over laughing, I mean what the fuck! What�s wrong with these guys. I mean come on!
Sorry guys I�m venting.

I have respect for the skinny guy that works out because I was there too. I also have respect for the big guy because I know what it takes to get big.

Bro - take it as a compliment. Most of the stares are probably admiration. Some, especially high-schoolers are very immature. Keep to your routine. If you see these guys start doing the same exercises and splits as you, you will know their intention.

Same thing happened to me. The stares. I invited the two guys to workout with me for the week. They couldn't quite keep up, but they now do whatever I tell them they should do.

They even do the "weird" exercise that no one else but me and my w/o partner do.

IE - shrugs on military press. Standing rows on vertical chest press shrugs on calf-machine. ETC.

Remember we all started somewhere.

Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It realizes that it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed.

The moral?

It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle, when the sun comes up - you had better be running.

It's a powerhouse gym. I've been there for a year now. Worked out at a different GYM in the City.

Great exercise. Use the standing calf machine as if you were going to do calves. Once the pads are on your shoulders simply shrug upwards. The weight feels more distributed, and takes a lot of strain of the back. Use this first on trap day, and you won't need as much weight on the remainder of your exercises.
