bothersome people at the gym

What type of people bother you the most at the gym? Mine are probably the guys who shadow box and dance around in front of the mirror like were in a f@#ing boxing ring.
 
The guys that come in 20 deep and do nothing but stand around and BS and if they do work out ..they look no different 3 months later...

I feel ya on the shodow boxing...cant stand that either...
 
I call that the teenie pack. There will be like 6 kids who hit the bench then sit and jabber the rest of the time.
 
People who hog the chalk buckets ,it makes me go mental if I put the chalk were every one can get to it the some prick thinks he owns it an wonders off with it :chomp:
 
all underarmour spandex but flabby under it, at least 100bucks on the outit. lots of flexing and doing random sets of different body parts. then they put a plate on each side and bench it not even half way down and back up. ahhhh i hate em.
 
The guys that for some reason think i have the statement "I have no clue of what im doing, so since i dont know you..PLEASE give me your outdated input on what im doing wrong" printed on my forehead.
 
oh and forgot guys who are too fat to wear a wife beater or the beater hangs off there body not tight enough. flex after doing sets. walk around like they have lats but don't, i'm not huge at all but i walk around humbly with my ipod on
 
The guys that still wear the "genie" pants to the gym cause they have no legs...they are all upper body with twigs for legs and must cover them up ..
 
You guys should check out the "Moron's in the Gym" thread in the Weight Training forum.

Funny ass stories of dumbass's in there...add your own if you've got some.
 
I really hate the people that load up on weight then do their sets with the worst form. Example- a guys loads up the calf raise machine then processes to bounce from his hips a set of 10. Moves a total of a 1/2 inch, man that shit is irriatating. Sorry I got a little pissed tjust thinking about it.
 
The guys that stand right next to the dumbell rack and do their exercises so no one else can get at the most of the weights.

If he's a real dipshit he'll pull a bench up parallel, 3 feet from the rack and block everything.

And, the ever popular "walk around naked with the towel over my shoulder" guy.

hell, I'm 208 and put up 365 3RM and to add the guy that says, "You should be putting up that much weight look how big you are" fucking douche bag.
 
For me i go to a small gym so not too bad, but the joke of my gym is the two kids that earned the name of the underarmor twins, they come in decked out head to toe in $$ clothes stretch for 30 mins do a set of db curls, maybe some lat pulldowns and leave I actually look forward to seeing them now they crack me up
 
The worst are the swingers.... They do an around the world (alomst every body part) and when it comes time for arms the load up the curl bar and swing away....

The screamers are a joke I find when I'm on base that there are more then when off base, the last one I say was a guy using 40lbs DB to do Lateral raises. At least you can laugh at some of them.
 
what about the guys who will grab 15lb dumbells and do like 4 sets of 50. Then theyre like oh it burns oooooh can you feel it. WTF is that going to do for you!!!?? Oh and I CAN deal with the hot snobby young girls in the tight black shorts my eyes seem to wander in between sets......

F*%K man you've got them also????
 
Let's see...The guys that try to train with their shirt off until they get told to put one one by staff.

And definitely the Bruce Lee/Mike Tyson wannabes that shadow box and doing karate kicks in the mirror. They might as well be saying to the whole gym "I'm scared as hell being here, so I'm gonna show everyone I have fighting skills so I don't get my ass kicked by some roidmonster"

The screamers are annoying and are probably very insecure with their own masculinity-so they try to project a testosterone induced attitude by expending equal amounts of energy yelling and lifting...

The guys that load too much weight on the bench and have their spotter deadlift the weight off of their chest from rep #1.

Fat chicks that think their tights are fashionable. Why do they always have those squeeze bottles of water? It doesn't seem like they'd need hydration since they almost have a heart attack and quit exercisingas soon as one bead of sweat forms on their forehead.

Perverted old faggots standing around the locker room naked when they just as easily could wrap a towel around their waist.

Gay guys that wear their sexuality on their sleeves by wearing rainbow stuff and trying to look like Active Male Felchers And Cornholers Monthly Magazine Cover Model.

Cops that wear t shirts that say 54th Annual Policeman's Ball 2005 type shirts. Basically they wanna wear their uniform to the gym to gain the charisma they don't get out of uniform, so they wear a t-shirt that lets everyone know they're a cop instead. Most of them wear gun fanny packs as well. They'll justify carrying while working out cuz they're cops, but I think it's mainly because they're scared without it.

I need a nap. I'll post more shit that bugs me later.

I was going to start a cycle a week ago but have to do some training tha would be right smack in the middle of it and I won't be able to workout or eat right so I'm holding off. My goal is 495, not that it means anything but the mental boost from getting 5 plates would be awesome.

as far as getting 500lbs 3 times that's fucking crazy
 
gotta say my all time favorite gym goers were two guys, one looked exactly like the rock and thought he was him, same side burns everything. one blond hair blue eyed and he wore a huge star of david. they came in both prolly 225 or so big juiced up guys. never took off their sunglasses. they used to YELL AND SCREAM at the weights like put on 3 plates on each side and tell the weights how bad they were gonna fuck them up. then the spotter would punch the lifter and he'd do his set. some of the things they said to these weights were just classic. "your nothing, you think you are bad but your not, im gonna fuck you up!" this is all true from the gym at my school about 4 yrs ago. funniest part i was at a bar where i live now 3000 miles away and i see the blonde dude at a bar here and we talked. man good times. they could back it up with their strength but they were hilarious
 
The smelly pigs .... I wear a MP-3 and don't look around much as i'm very focused so most of that shit does'nt bother me " but " i can still smell !!!

These fat ass pricks who wear 25 layers of cloths to make themselves look big but fail to ever wash there gear ...

I had one dude working out beside me once that smelled so bad i had to move to something else because it was making me gag and loose my concentration .

Someone throwing up in the gym is a one way ticket to the door for me as well ... i can't workout smelling someone elses puke .

I find it ironic that I see the really, really overweight people lifting weights and the ultra skinny people on the treadmill.
Click to expand...

I see that too, quite bizarre if you ask me. I know if i was overweight i'd be sticking to the cardio 100%

Or overweight people walking on treadmills, not breaking a sweat
 
My really only pet peeve is tough guys who lift somewhat heavy, and in total control, feel the need to smack down whatever weight their lifting on their last rep. Sometimes I just want to walk over and say "Listen buddy, your not impressing anyone here, in fact, most think your a tool who's just putting serious wear and tear on the gym equipment I NEED TO USE TOO!"
 
people that bother me is anyone that is there to do anything besides fucking work out!!

and people that put more weight on the bench than they can possible lift and walk around the bench like they are gonna rep it 15 times, then get the largest guy in there to practice his deadlifts as he pulls it off of him while he pretends to be lifting it
 
the people that stink like piss..then want to get as close to your face to ask you for advice..then start to follow you all over the gym like a lost puppy...GOD MAN, CAN YOU NOT SMELL URSELF!!!! U SMELL LIKE SHIT!
 
the 140lb soaking wet 18 year old---who attempts to pull 225 of the squat rack to do--deads with and drops it on floor--then takes 15 minutes to position his wraps and does a 1/2 of one rep---then proceeds to look in the mirror at his 12.5 inch arms every chance he gets

and the young packs of hi-shcool kids who train with 5-6 guys and take 1 hour to complete a set of bench--most of the time going about 5 times heavier then they can handle

LMFAO......the cop comment could not be MORE TRUE!!!

they just hate it when they are in there with their pathetic physique i walk by and they know they have an inferior body, but hey, they did attend the policemans ball! and they want me to know they ARE a cop!!

damn good one there
 
i got this one fucking morong at my gym that trains chest and shoulders FIVE days a week!!!

YES, he does a set of flat bench, set of shoulder presses.....OVER AND OVER EVERY DAY
 
Why does it bother you at all. If someone is annoying me, meaning he is interfering with my workout, I let them know and move on. Peace, Zen, Chi....Chill bro's!
 
I agree with the poster on the FAT guys doing the ab cruncher 2000 for 1000 reps..lifting..but ...NO cardio in sight..ever...they think that even at 30% BF doing that crunch machine will bring in their abs nice and crisp :rolleyes:
 
There is this one schmuck who wears a wifebeater even in the winter and is full of zits, who walk around with his arms way out and puffs his chest out all the time. To top it off the guy cheats on every rep when he does exercise inbstead of bumping his gums all the time. The asshole is always asking me to "hook him up" I told him from all the zits he has it look like he's doin fine. Then he always tries to tell everone how much stronger he's getting and how much he's improving and still looks like a pizza back bitch. He even tried to join our group but left after a little while so he could go off and cheat on all his exercises. Hell I bought an Ipod because of that jackass.
 
I hate assholes that use your machine or take your attachment off the pulley machine when you CLEARY have your towel and water RIGHT THERE....I hate these assholes doing curls on the squat/shrug rack with two 10lb plates on each side.....These 10 pack jerk offs that only come to make noise and do bench press (usually young teens) These LOSERS that think becuase they've lifted for 3 months they can rock a wife beater with their 90lb ass rocking all kinds of name brand gym gear and carrying a 5 gallon jug of water....These pussies that walk in front of you without common courtesy when your carrying 110lb dumbells, should drop them on their fuckin feet...These DOUCHEBAGS ask you for a spot and then when they are struggling and not even moving the bar, dont want your help....DROP IT ON YOURSELFS FAGGOTS.I think thats it for now =)

no disrespect to him and i mean that--but he really is a skinny guy---good definition--but doesnt look like he lifts
 
I have one, this old guy with obvious gyno issues comes into the gym every day with a cup from home filled with ice and what I would guess to be rum and coke. Then he sits at the benches, sips on his drink and proceeds to make calls on his cell phone. This guy really pisses me off which in turn I take out o the weights. I hate seeing the bastard but it does give me a boost!
 
monthly gym dues.......................$21.00

bottled water at the gym..............$1.00

entertainment provided by observing idiotic gym members

I am gonna go with the dudes that load up the squat rack and then do quarter-squats...that just make me laugh/get incredibly mad...but I just laugh to make them look as dumb as possible. lol

all good. i dont mind criticism at all. ive never met a person with arms like mine that didn't lift but its all good.
 
I've never flipped out (bad) in the gym before, but this guy today made me toss a bench into the squat rack and physically MOVE the guys lifting station to the raquetball court...................long story,..........but he wouldn't f-in QUIT
 
I was doing lateral standing shoulder raises with dumbells and this guy walked real close by me when he couldve walked around. Well if I wouldve kept raising the dumbell it wouldve smacked him in the chin. I had to stop my set because of this fuck. I stared him down and I knew he could see me glaring at him so he just put his head down and walked away.

Don't take any shit Bruce. You're the one that's a friggin model for pete's sake.

My all time least favorite is the guy you 'kinda know' who LOVES to talk to you--EVEN WHEN YOU'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF BENCHING 90LB DUMBELLS. God I hate that. G'head, talk to me for a combined 5 minutes, but SHUT THE F UP WHEN I'M READY TO LIFT!

thank you my friend. i feel ya. wish i had your chest bro. luckily i workout at davidbarton so although there are some homos around the trainers are all built like many top 5's here at elite no joke. they are working out early in the day when i go and those are for the most part the guys i'm around and i get tips fo free from guys who train the bears and bulls. my stories come from the gym at my college, the bally's i used to go to, and golds gym in tucson is the bomb btw, all meathead juicers, lou ferrigno's son works out there. loved it, cheez balls were not allowed there. i only got respect cause i train hard and am strong, at first i got dwarfed so hard. grea environment to grow in
 
I agree with the posts about the police officers. even on the days they were not scheduled to work they wear the "cops banquet galleria " shirt..and god forbid the shirt is dirty and in the laundry basket at the house they will wear a dark navy blue skin tight t-shirt as close to the police uniform as they can get..and the pants with it..I know this because i was a member of a gym that was affiliated with a police academy..OH the stories i have heard..i wish i had a tape recorder with me at the gym to use as blackmail if i ever get pulled over for speeding
 
I hate the guys that want to work in with you to show off their strength. One guy came up to me when I was doing trap work, I only had 225 on the bar so he came over like a bad ass. He ended up trying to hang with me and ended up leaving the gym after he hurt is back. I hate to see people get hurt but that was hilarious.

A few years ago a gym I belonged to was pushing female particpation... mostly soccer mom types... and they were adding a "Jazzercise" section, babysitting, and a female only section.

Meanwhile they marketed the "new look" like crazy.

In any event one day I was doing arms and I went to do seated dumbbells and 3 women had hijacked 3 of the seats and were doing 2.5 pound curls, about 100 each as they talked about the one chicks "heavy flow period" that had lasted 10 days.

They just sat their socializing chatting away oblivious of the need to hurry up or share or that their loud conversation might not be what anyone within 30 feet of the trio wanted to hear.

I kid you not, it was UFB!

A week or so later the 3 Gymketers were back doing cardio on the treadmill and one of them was actually "eating" a chocolate energy bar WHILE she walked on the treadmill...again it was UN F@CKING BELIEVABLE

It was hilarious
 
What about the crowds that show up certain times of the year.....like the new year's crowd for new years resolutions.....their all over the gym clogging up all the machines and literally causing lines, then like 3 weeks later they give up and you don't see them again till the spring. Oh yea...and the infamous "before the summer" crowd. They workout through the summer....they all have no idea what their doin and jus get in your way. Then they stop workin out at the end of the summer......get really fat over the winter, and the cycle repeats.
 
This didn't really bother me, but it was the weirdest exercise I've ever seen.

A girl, soccer build, probably early 20's, went over to the power rack. Any girl in the power rack is cool to me, so I kept an eye on her.

She grabbed one of those 1/2 excercise balls. I'm not sure what they're called, but it looks like half a regular exercise ball, except the bottom of it is flat, hard plastic, so they don't move around when you're on them.

She turns it upside down, rounded part on the floor, and stands on the flat part. She manages to get the bar on her shoulders, and starts doing good mornings.

So, she's wobbling all over the place trying to keep from falling off this thing that she's turned upside down, and leaning forward trying to squeeze out good morning reps at the same time. Weird shit. Surprisingly, she didn't kill herself.

the older women who go to a makeup artist and get the works hair,nails etc to come to gym as well as wearing every piece of jewelry they own
 
I did see a fat man yesterday that talked on his cell phone the ENTIRE workout...no shit, he was doing shoulders and arms, he would hold the phone and talk with one hand and work teh other arm, then change hands!!

how the fuck can you get a good workout and talk on the phone?
 
I hate the guys that insinuate that Im using steroids. I mean, they are right but fuck them with that "Hey I need some extra help" shit or saying I look good but then making a "syringe" type hand jesture. Dudes coming up asking about superdrol or 1-ad. I dont even answer them, just shake my head like I dont know what they are talking about.

Also the old naked guys in the locker room. WTF is that about.
 
yep bad form mofos. me and my boy who used to lift together had names for every type of dumbass. actually i hate 5 foot 7 guys with about 20% bf that weigh 230 and walk around like they are ronnie cause they can press like 275. if you are 230 put up 300 minimum. shit im doing way more than i weigh

Bro, believe it or not. In todays society, it is not uncommon for most men to not be able to bench their own weight. i read this somewhere, but typical men can bench COMFORTABLLY and CONTROLLED, about 80% of their body weight. 100% is looks at to be a feat to beat. But i feel ya, i weigh 168 and bench 210 repping and 285 max. Pushing for 300 by the end of summer.

I would think most "chemically assisted" bodybuilders and strength athletes should bench 1.5-2X their bodyweight for a 1 rep max. My bodyweight is my warmup weight.
 
there is this old man that goes to my gym and it seems that he'll wait til I get done with a set and when I got my back turned he jumps on my apparatus and changes everything. The seat height, weight, the knee or feet pads. Then does one set and walks away. The last time I stopped him and told him he didn't need to jump in and do one set and fuck all my shit up. So go off and do one more set of another exercise and I'll be done and you can do your pointless set of 12-15 and do something else.
 
The guys the do half reps and then look round to make sure no one missed him.

Most of all the guys that use the cable cross overs to train there whole body while i have to f-ing what for them to finish. " now i ask how long are you gonna be "

The guy that thats 10mins to do a set - like i've got all day to wait.

Shit.... these a lot more things i hate but these will do for starter.

No shit. Congrats to her.

I hate the guys that always try to out lift everyone. A couple of weeks ago I had a guy that after every fucking exercise I did he would do the same thing with more weight ( and worse form) Like he was trying to show me up. Gotta love the military presses that barely reach the forehead.

If I saw a guy shadow box..... id think id piss my pants laughing so hard.


God would that be halarious.
 
Old men that come to work out wearing slacks, button up and penny loafers...WTF

Trainers that steal your station without asking.

People that try to communicate with you even though you are wearing headphones turned all the way up. I CANT HEAR YOU JACKASS, why are you trying to talk to me.

Yeah, thats a good one. I have some angry white man metal blasting away and this guy is wanting to know how I get so big. lol Anymore I just tell them steroids and the look on their face is priceless.
 
I think that is HOT. You know they are there for a reason...I guess maybe my SN says too much ;-)

P.S. this is in response to the post about the older ladies that get done up for the gym -shape-

the old men with the wrinkled balls in the locker room are pretty bad too I have to admit. I hate it when their locker is right next to yours and their standing all close to you. Im telling myself dont look man dont do it and it makes my mind wanna twitch to keep from looking.

Ehh, it sounds like you want to look and you are trying really hard not to give in to your desires. :rainbow:

And how do you know how wrinkled their balls are? ;)

I would think most "chemically assisted" bodybuilders and strength athletes should bench 1.5-2X their bodyweight for a 1 rep max. My bodyweight is my warmup weight.

I dont know how u come to that number, honestly i wouldnt know what my max bench is cause i only do dumbell press's on a flat bench which i do 6x110's but im pretty sure i wouldnt be benchin 350 to 460 for 1 rep

personally i don't give a shit how much I lift on each exercise. If i could only put a 2.5 lb on each side of the bar but looked like arnold or coleman I wouldnt care. Some people are stronger on certain lifts than other and some people just lift for strength which is cool too.
 
the old men with so much hair on their back they could donate it to make furcoats for the homeless

It beats some roid induced acne pizza back in a stringer tank squirting his zit juice all over the flat bench when he lays on it.
 
Hmm my list, let's see:
People lifting way too much way incorrectly. I tore a bicep lifting properly, just would hate to see anyone else go through that. And the ones with bad form usually think that they are cool.

People on cell phones hoggins up benches or weights etc.

Chicks with too much shitty perfume that makes it so I can't breathe.

The groups of middle age women that think the gym is a social club.

The groups of teen boys doing the same thing.

I don't mind people asking me advice, but if I didn't ask you for any, don't give me your 2 cents.

Finally, people who talk to me in the middle of a set or when I obviously have headphones on, unless they are asking to work in or something.
 
My List...
The guys who look for pussy at the gym. All they do is talk...maybe if you shut your fat mouth and got your ass on the treadmill you might have an easier time gettin ass.

The Teens Who wanna tell me what I should do or the stories that start like this..."well my friend can lift xxx amount" or this is classic. "I used to be able to......blah blah blah.."

The talkers are annoying..Some people just wanna keep talking and talking.....

And its been said before...the monday at 5pm crowd...I dont see any of them there sunday morning breaking PR's....

Thank you for your time.

P.s. rich kids in expesive workout gear and curlers in the squat rack...I find it hard to believe they cant lift 45lbs off the ground..
 
so fuckin true about the cops in cop t shirts. i had noticed it, but never really thought about it. so true and funny.

theres this one dickhead cop at my gym who thinks hes vic mackey. shaved head, kinda stocky but mostly fat. he stares everybody down and walks around with his chest puffing out his fraternal order of police tshirt. then he puts 225 on the bench and struggles with it 3 times.
