busting the shirts off at the gym...

It's in really bad taste to take your shirt off at a public gym.

Agreed! I have done photo shoots before contest for some small mags (Body Muscle Journel) and I was uncomfortable then! 218# @ 3.4% and I was uneasy! I could never really train like that.

I agree, save that shit for the beach. Hell, I felt bad lifting up my shirt to check out my abs or pulling up the legs of my shorts the last few weeks of my contest prep. The only people that I've seen take their shirts off in my gym, certainly shoulda kept them on, I believe they were trying to show of their 32" chest Me and the rest of the usuals just look at them and laugh.

see, i guess alot of you dont understand... its not the praise, or this or that. my partner and i do things to phych eachother out. and this one time he pulled this and i dont care what any of you say, it mentally got me going for one badass back workout. im not gonna take my shirt off every workout, caus that would be gay, because that would be planned out and stupid. the point of this, was it was on the spur of the moment, cause the workout was going so good already, and it did the job well at phicing me out. you cant tell me you never wanted to workout at muscle beach. and i bet you that if you were in there with us you probley woulda gone along with it. so yes i dont regret it at all.

I understood what you were saying and I don't think you're a bad person or anything. All I'm saying is that for me personally, if my training partner took off his shirt in the gym, I'd walk away and pretend like I didn't know him. Then, I'd call him later that night and tell him I gave up on the whole bodybuilding thing and am going to be a painter instead. Then, I'd get a membership at a new gym, make new friends, and get a new training partner and make a point of clarifying with him right from the get-go that if he ever takes off his shirt in the gym, I'll run away like a frightened little girl and take a big fucking steamer in his gym bag on my way out.
