New Year's Gym Time

[haploid]

This post is not intended to denigrate fatties; I used to be one.

That said, it's that time of the year again, when for about a month the gym is swarmed by fatties of all kinds, who don't know what the hell they're doing, and who tend to irritate the hell out of me when I'm just trying to get my sets done.

I've been thinking of getting a bench & plates for home use, but I don't really have any place to put it.

Do you guys have any sage advice about how to handle this situation?

Don't go to the gym between 5 and 8pm

Ya the gym doesn't get the normal crew back until about late March. It normally takes about 3 months for the n00bs that get gym memberships in January to give up. Only the hardcore remain

I just hate when the whale women are doing 1 plate on my ab machine for 9000 reps like that is going to help them.

3 months? Jeez. Ours last three weeks tops. Some even manage to stick to it.

Best thing is to just wait it out, imo. They never last long.

The only thing worse than the New Years Resolution crowd was the Pre-Spring Break crowd down at school... 3 weeks before Spring Break the gym would be PACKED with guys trying to get 'buff' for Cancun or wherever they were going.

At least with the New Years crowd they go with the intention of getting in shape... where as the spring break crowd is just delusional in thinking they're going to get jacked in 3 weeks.

Yeah that and the holidays, in which the rec center on campus is closed. I hear everyone here, but your in there for you and no one else. I put my MP3 player on and go to work. Dont have to listen, talk, or pay attention to anyone, until my w/o is complete anyway.

I'd rather deal with the fat people than the three fuckers who hog equipment while they shoot the shit for 5 minutes between every damn set. They basically come to the gym and lift some weight between sets of bullshitting.
