Yea, I do for sure. He is someone I cant stand. I can't go into too much detail, because he might read this and it could get me into some trouble. Anyway, he is the typical "I'm big, I'm bad, and I know 'Moo Moo Gau Pan.'" I honestly think that it the type of martial arts he said he knew. He is a trainer at the gym I go to. He is huge, but he is just a dick. Ilift as hard as I can so hopefully, maybe, one day I will be able to tell him to just shut the H$LL Up!
Sorry for venting guys!

i dont know alot of people that motivate me, but there are alot of people in my gym that i respect for training regularly and hard despite great odds. i respect that.

No one in particular. But the people who lift with intensity, I mean each and every set and rep they are giving it their all, no matter what kind of weight they're pushing - that motivates me. There's nothing worse than lifting in a gym with a bunch of people that are just going through the motions. But when there's energy in the room, the best of us will feed off it and create better workouts.

Anybody that is bigger or stronger than me pisses me off to no end, that's all the motivation i need.

every single using the gym to cruise for ass, loading 25lb plates on the hammer machines and grunting while he reps out, checking his hair between sets, talking on the cell phone-arms-bigger-than-his-legs motherfucker in the gym inspires me to make the most of myself.

at my last gym there were a couple of very strong PLers who were awesome to train with, but those days are gone
