Guy in my gym...

Ok...there's this guy here grunting and groaning on every damn rep. Do I go tell him to shut up? Normally I don't care, but EVERY rep. It seems to me like he's just doing it to draw attention because he starts on rep ONE. PLUS, he's in the "cardio" side of the gym using the nautilus compound row machine, we have the cables in the other room...where anyone who can lift anything goes.

This guy's just some juicer who wants attention, and it's annoynig the hell out of me. He's wearing a wife beater, bobbing his head to whatever is on his headphones, and constantly checking himself out in the mirror. SHUT UP!

So, do I go say something? I think he's scaring the members of my sissy gym.
 
i almost fell off the treadmill this guy scared me once so bad.....i was just running along and he started making these God-awful noises, through my headphones it sounded even odder so I almost bit the dust.....lol

i also make weird faces in the mirror while lifting, and i lift the most weight i can because i like the noise of the bar hitting the pins..


for real though, i think i might have done tis on one wicked set of dumbell curls, with the 35's lol... i had previously been doing the 25's for my highest set, but i trid the 35's and my face turned red and my neck got a huge pump, and i looked like i was bout to cry for my whole set, but i got them.

gimme karma for my PR, thanks

i hate when i laugh...

me and my friend play this stupid game on the treadmill, where we start at like 5, and then we keep going up on the speed trying to stay ahead of the person in mileage, so then hell go to 5.2, ill go to 5.3, hell to 5.4 etc, untill we are like at 8 running super fast, and then we start laughing and almost fall off at ungodly speeds...
 
If this guy is distracting you then you obviously arent focussed enough. So what if he grunts.......let him be and just get your own training done.

I work there...I wasn't working out.

BTW, he did 6 sets of rows, grunting and groaning on every rep (12 rep sets).
 
I have a similiar dipshit at my gym...I call him Big Dawg cause he is always wearing clothes that say "big" on them. The dude is big, but his workout technique is so fuckking gay it sicken's me. Grunts on every rep, never does heavy weight, never squats, dl's or benches. He always loads up the leg press with every plate imaganable then gets some fat guy to sit on top of the machine. Always makes a big production out of this, accompained by riduclous grunt/scream. A few weeks ago big dawg told my buddy and I about a really technical leg movement that he recommended doing. He said it was really hardcore and that we could only handle super light weight...low and behold the dipshit is talking about front squats. Dude makes a huge production out of f.squatting 225, racks it kinda hard and gives me the "I doubt you'll be doing that anytime soon" look. W/o even warming up I hit 275 for reps...lol...this moment was the pinnacle of my gym carrer. Dude claimed it must be cause of my 5'8 stature...maybe that is true to a degree, but I still smoked him @190lbs compared to his 280 lbs...

I think screaming during reps is an artform. I do the same thing with the leg press where I put every single plate in the gym on it, then I have 2-3 of my gym buddies sit ontop of it and scream with me. Sometimes I strap a megaphone to my mouth and scream into it during my sets. My mp3 player is usually blasting a looping wav file of me screaming.

I've been known to walk up and tell them that they're not lifting NEARLY enough weight to make that much noise. Sometimes I have my wife go do it. It's much more embarassing for them that way. The other thing I do is work in with them. Most of the people there are lightweights, so outlifting them isn't a problem. I pick an appropriately high weight and then mention to them how I didn't even have to make a sound to lift more than they did.

So, I get dirty looks and have been told to go fuck myself a few times. I know how to smile. :)
 
Yeah...he wasn't lifting very heavy weights, and his grunts were far from an artform. It really sounded like someone was rubbing some flamingly gay dude's croth and he just couldn't contain himself.

It wasn't your usual noise, if it was...I'd have no problem with it. But there was just something off about this. You could tell it wasn't because he was struggling with the weight, he just wanted to make noise. You shouldn't have to groan on a weight you can do 12 reps for. Maybe a little bit of a loud exhale at most.
