a REAL frustrating gym experience

[pharmguy]

I am seeing all these experiences posted, here is one that happened last week, pissed me off.

I come into the gym at 11 AM. There are like 4 people in the gym.
Not one of them is by the dumbell section. I like to work flat bench then incline, back and forth. I set up the flat and incline n fron of the the heavy dumbells so I don't have to drag a few hundred LBS of dumbells halfway across the floor. While I am doing flatbench, this old rich bitch sits down with her 20 lb dumbells on the inlince bench next to me. I inform her I am working back and forth. Mind you, there is another empty incline bench not in use 10 feet away. I politiley tell her she can work in if she wants. ( she readjusts the height) I move the other incline bench right next to the light weights for her and adjust it to her hieght. I wasn't going to tell her she had to use it, trying to be subtle ya know. Then I go and do my incline set. She makes a snide comment, " I guess I'll just go use that other bench then, sheesh. big sigh..."
It was all I could do to keep my mouth shut. But that old fucking bitch aint worth me gettin kicked out, I like my gym. Old fucking hags think they own the place in the morning at my gym.

Luckily I make it to my gym at roughly 4-5am so I don't have to worry about the old hags.

I've got pleanty of Ambercrombie & Finch (punk) stories from when I used to work out in the afternoons. OMG

I work out in the afternoon and for some reason the kiddies just get the hell out of my way. Think the reason is afternoons are for the night poeple(bouncers, bartenders, etc) and they tend to be all business and not very social.

Its probably a good thing that didn't happen to me. Ahh, she'd have gotten away with it anyways...

Paxil keeps me from killing people.

Young or old it doesn't matter, regardless if there is no more than three people in the gym, some clueless wang will either be right in my way or want to use what I'm using.


Another thing that pisses me off is the dildoe that wants a spot on every set. I will spot a person one time, and I let them know it.


I also get very pissed when someone that I don't know, therefore do not like, asks me to work in. I tell them that they may work in all that they want, when I'm finished.


Very loud people, the grunters and screamers are also not tolerated well by me.



Last but not least I get very irritated by the advice givers and constant question askers.

You just described 99% of the people in the gym. Maybe a home gym would better suit your personality?

 

[shredawg]

You guys described all the reasons I put together my own home gym. My old gym was like a fuckin social club. I miss some of the great equipment but at home I just blast the radio and do my thing with no distractions.

BTW I guess I am better off at home because I tend to scream out obscenities once in a while when lifting and probably annoy others as much as they annoy me.

Nothing gets me more pissed the the 155 pound kids who walk around in wife beaters with spiked hair. they are the 1st to jump the equip youve set up when working back and forth. i can forgive women bc most dont understand whats going on and r intimidated to lift where the guys are anyway.
