Idiot gym instructors!

[musketeer]

Was doing chest and bi's with a much smaller dude (who's only been working out for a month). He was already gained 3lbs and is at least 50% stronger. We were all pumped up and as there was only one other guy (that we also knew) in the room he took off his shirt to check out his gains. The other guy shouted for a "posedown" and I took my shirt of and started to go pose for pose with him. No big deal.

Get upstairs about 30mins later and all of the instructors are smiling and laughing. The security camera TV has been turned to face forwards from the reception desk, and they had paused the tape with us in the middle of a lat spread. They thought that it was the funiest thing they had ever seen in the gym.

Wankers!

I'm 225lbs with abs showing and muscles they dont even have like claves and traps. They all weigh less than 180 and use pathetic weights like 110lbs on the incline bench or do squats with 135!

OK OK. But u have to admit...if u were in that control room watching the screan, and u saw 3 guys posing w/ their shirts off...don't tell me u wouldn't be laughing too!

Just two guys who train 5 days a week.

I've worked in gyms and been a member for over 10 years and I've seen that happen so much that I don't even look twice if some 250 gorilla is strippping nude on the lifting platform next to me.

Maybe I'm the other extreme!

They got ya. I wouldn't read much into it or take it personally. That's pretty damn funny though.

There are no hardcore gyms in my area, but if there were I would train there and seeing hardcore bodybuilders flexing and posing wouldn;t bother me at all.

But, at a regular type gym(most gyms) I woulda laughed at you too regardless of your size. It just looks retarded man. I'll pose at home in the mirror, but you'll never catch me posing at a gym,.

 

[Madcow2]

I have to agree. It's damn funny and they "gotcha". I wouldn't take it personally and I'd certainly do the same to anyone. Hell, at least you have something to show off. I've watched some 140lbs kid take off his shirt and pose down in a gym full of people being totally serious like he was the hulk for something. I couldn't even lift for 5 minutes as I was afraid I'd start laughing. Laughing at yourself is essential for happiness because we all do way too much stupid stuff to take ourselves seriously.

i would have fallen off my chair laughing at you lol

 

[Pastor of Muppets]

I would have been laughing. Poser!

 

[musketeer]

Im not really bothered - probably why I posted it. Just goes to show the differnce between the people who work out a little bit and the hardcore bodybuilders/.

That must be a London thing. I have been going to gyms for 20 years, and no one has ever yelled, "Posedown!!!" to have a bunch of guys pulling off thier shirts and hitting poses.

In fact, if I ever saw that, it would be top 3 for funniest things I ever saw in a gym. (#1 right is a kid who shit his pants and collapsed doing squats - #2 is a guy that stripped 3 45's off one side of a BP and had the other side fling over the top like a catapault crashing into a mirror - so you would be up against stiff competition.)
