I'm debating on whether it is the kid who asked me about GH or the old guy who decided to tell me that I do shit wrong.

Old guy that you do shit wrong.... Super halo man...lol never happened to me. but i can just imagine this scenario... Did he tell you while he was puting on his jockstrap..in locker room?
but i can just imagine this scenario... Did he tell you while he was puting on his jockstrap..in locker room?this was back in highschool. we were testing our max for football and some dude was going for 360 on squats. he went down pushed so hard that he shit his shorts. then becouse he shit himself he dropped the weight and send him flying into the mirror. he cracked the mirror, but only hurt his ego. we all called him cagon (spanish for shitter) after that.

Funny shit...
When I saw two kids doing dumbbell presses with 20 pound dumbbells screaming like they were having a baby, then throw the weights on the mat.
I went over to the bench next to them picked up the 1lb pink rubber coated weights and warmed up. Then let out a horrendous noise as I threw them to the floor and said "beat that"

squat turtle
I have another football squat max story. My buddy was going for 500+ for reps and unknowingly squeezed out a turtle head during the proceedings. Sat down on a bench afterwards and SPLOTCH. He never told anybody. The story came out two years later when a bunch of us former players were eating gyros. We all laughed our asses off.

I posted this on a thread a long time ago. I searched it and copied it here. I still laugh when I think about it. READ.
These 2 guys always train together. They both thought they were some kind of chick magnet hammers when in reality they couldnt get laid in a whore house. Anyway, they come dressed in kinda spandex bicycle shorts and BIG loop muscle shirts where you see everything. They are both about 6 foot tall and weigh about 170. Well one day one of the guys was trying to MACK on this girl at the gym. He is acting all nonchalant while he's talking to her and lays down on the flat bench to do some bench press. His partner/spotter slaps a 45 and 25 on each side. The guy on the bench is struggling at rep 5 when his spotter who is standing over him rips a juicy fart. The guy on the bench now has the full weight of the bar on his chest and can't get it off. His partner is laughing so hard, he can't get it off. Finally he pushes the bar off to the side where it comes crashing to the floor and he falls off the bench. He gets to his knees and starts vomiting. It was fuckin awesome.

So a woman walks into the gym last nite...
...with two hungry, hungry Oprah friends. As I began to walk over to them, I notice one of them has fresh twinkie filling on her chin.
What is the proper response:
1 - Ignore and try to keep from laughing.
2 - Tell her she has twinkie splooge on her and laugh out loud.
I tried number 1, and she asked me what I was smiling about. I told her that I was just glad that she and her friends(herd) could join us. She procedes to stomp over to the bike and rides for a few minutes on level 1, and then asks me why she is STILL robust.
She then wants a bodyfat analysis. I'm thinking "fuck me" cause those digital calipers ain't going to be big enough(plus, you know, the thought of doing it sorta scared me). SO - I grab the mojo-sized ones. The thigh and ab pinch was to big for the calipers, so I had to do a one-site based on the tricep. Oh man!! Was she pissed at me cause the calipers wouldn't fit.
WHAT THE CRAP!!!!
FLASH FORWARD TO THE NEXT VISIT:
So - the Twinkie woman hits the gym last nite...
....I check her out from across the gym...Hmmmm...no twinkie filling on chin this time....no evidence of binge eating on the way....Whew!! Ok. Before I could get to her, she procedes to stomp her way over to the treadmill and gets on. I politely tell her that there is a waiting list on the wall and that she needs to put her name down. She doesn't understand. I tell her that she has to get off, that there is someone that has been waiting. She wants to know who it is.......Well, the person in question walks over and I wave to her to stay out of it. Well Wilda saw her and says to me "What does SHE need the treadmill for?? I NEED it more than her..."
At this point, the local female cop told her that she could go ahead if she wanted. I asked her if she was sure that it was ok, she said yes. So WIlda begins to stomp, ever so slowly first 1.0 mph then 1.5 mph then the speed levels out at a whopping 1.6 mph. By this time, there is like 30 people in the gym and my attention gets diverted elsewhere. After I guess 7 or 8 minutes, I look up and Wilda has disappeared. Well - I motion for the cop to go ahead and get on.
Suddenly, the bathroom door flies open and I hear a gutteral moan that sounds like Wilda. "Nooooooo!!!!" She cried from across the gym, "I wasn't finished" So, I'm like FUCK! Ok Wilda, you got off the treadmill, and it wasn't on pause. It had totally cleared it's memory which means that you had been gone for at least 2 minutes. Cop was here first anyway, let's put you on a bike and you can walk later if you wish.
Wilda mad. Wilda grabs purse and storms out.
Flash forward to 20 minutes later. I hear a couple of chicks talking about this weird woman that was in the changing/bathroom area. Sounds like Wilda. I try to hear part of the conversation:
Chick 1 - "Did you see that woman in the bathroom. That was strange."
Chick 2 - "Yeah, I thought so, too. I can understand wanting to get to the gym and stuff, but man, eat on the way here or something....."
That got my attention. I asked what were they talking about. It appears that Wilda got off the treadmill to slam down a piece of pizza that she smuggled in to the gym.
True story.

Well, I have one or two involving the same dude. One day at my gym, I was doing bench press's, and something made me look over to the side. I see this guy wearing a neon purple tank top and olive dress pants, with dress shoes. He had one of those 80s 'wave hair cut's'. He had some little guy with him, who was cleaning up after him with a towel. He told the little guy "I would take some gear, but my hiney hole is too small tee hee tee hee." I had to leave the room, I laughed so hard.
A few month later, I was doing laterial raises with my fiance, and he was in the same room, this time with a two of his 'friends'. They were doing shoulder exercises too, he was trying to 'psych' himself up and was yelling at the dumbbells "oh baby, don't tease me!" and then said to his friend "If you drop the soap, I would pick it up!". And whenever this guy is at the gym, he leaves a trail of cheap colonge or who knows, it could be perfume in the air. Needless to say, I stay away from this group of characters! LOL.
I have a few more involving this paranoid old german guy, who has no teeth, and a girl who thinks she is britney spears, but I'll save those for another time.....

Ok, first time I saw this guy I was standing in front of the mirror doing barbell curls. I do them in front of the mirror because I try to keep my form super strict, which I was. Anyway, I'm in the middle of my 4th set when this pudgie middle aged guy wearing spandex shorts, a t-shirt with a tank top over it, gloves, wrist bands, and a do-rag with a sweat band over it comes over to me and says "you know, I can tell you the right way to do curls." I politely said no thanks, I like doing them this way. He proceded to tell me that he's been training for over thirty years and knows what he's talking about. He went on "just a few years ago I weighed 160. Now I'm up to 180." I'm thinking wow, 30 years of training and you just figured out how to put on 20 pounds of blubber? This guy looks like he would be 125 at 15% bodyfat. So he began to tell me his secrets - "if you want to get ripped you gotta eat raw egg whites." ?? WHAT?? "If you want to pack on mass you need to take at least 15 seconds for contraction per rep, like the pros do it." That sort of thing. It never dawned on this guy that I'm 40 pounds bigger, very lean, and about ten times stronger...

Big black kid about 20 and 200 lbs lean comes in and quickly warms up in his spandex ragtop and do rag
then throws 800lbs on the TK 45 starr leg press
doesn't insert the safety stop pin and proceeds to try one legged leg press...there is several loud pops as his numerous ligaments
rupture and his femur proceeds to dislocate and laterally fracture
and shoot out to the side through his skin while the platform proceeds to pin his other leg painfully back hopefully not shattering his patella, blood is squirting everywhere from the leg
as he wide eye stares in shock gasping like a fish out of water while several weak stomachs projectile vomit and one woman faints from the sight while a few of us "old pros" try to activate ems and get the sled off this poor dumb kid and stop the bleeding from his ruptured femoral artery. Heres to you up there kid in that big gym in the sky better luck with it next time !!!
always set saftey stop pins in the racks!

this guy is comes in on his bike, his a cyclist so he's wearing his cyclist costume and his little cyclist shoes which have the latches on the bottom which stick out about half an in or so, well he proceeds over to the squat rack and places 2 plates and 35s on the bar, after about 2 reps i hear a loud bang....the dumbass of course was squating with his biking shoes and rolled his ankle
then theres a guy that looks exactly like the dad from 90210 wearing the same very short sky blue shorts hiked up creating a wedge, a sleeve less shirt, bandana, and albino. his routine consists of exercises i've never seen before and one time angered the management there cause he was stretching out his hammys on the bench and wasn't wearing any underwear

I saw a guy one time doing calf raises with a free bar in front of a mirror. When he was done with his set, he turned around and the end of the bar went through the mirror. SMASH!! The section of the mirror was huge probably 12x18ft or so.

I once seen a guy put 2 plates on each side of a curl bar and then proceed to sit down on a flat bench, somehow place the bar on his shoulders, and then do a killer set of seated calve raises, groaning and screaming the whole time even though in reality there was absolutely no weight whatsoever on his legs!!

I'm afraid that maybye the kid did die... his femoral artery was completely ruptued and it only takes 5-10 min to bleed to death in those cases it took almost 5 just for the PM's to arrive granted
a hospital was 4 blocks away even with the turnicate on in about 3 minutes he was in bad shock and couldn't speak...just gasping and stareing into oblivion shaking etc.
Its something I'll never forget I wish I could have seen it coming or done more...I don't understand what gets into people sometimes to try s#$t like that especially without a spot or safety pin set...

At the gym that I go to here in Shreveport, there's a guy that comes in about once a week, throws about 300lbs on a bar, and proceeds to "deadlift" the weights up and down.... BOUNCING THEM OFF THE FLOOR!!! The racket is so much, it rivals a jackhammer on a 1/2 steel plate!! By the time he's done with his set, EVERYBODY in the gym's ears are bleeding and are giving him that " ARE YOU F!@$*#G DONE THERE HERCULES??!!!" death stare! Managment let him do that about three times, haven't seen him for 6 months. LOL

I don't get it myself, I see guys that do stuff like that every once in a while, and thay always end up injured. Or they wonder why thay never make any gains. Or why their car is all keyed up, and they keep finding their locker stuff in trash. It's like the whole world is out to get them for being such an annoyance. LOL
Monday night at the gym, off to the side in the leg training area are two guys. One is about 5'7"220 looks to be about 30% fattass, the other is 5'6" 110 skinny as a rail. These two are standing in front of the squat rack, I shit you not, performing a dance routine conplete with spins and Micheal Jackson hat flips. This went on for a good 20min then they decided they have "worked out hard enough" and start a chat session right in the middle to the main weight room. no shit, once I finished and went down stairs these same two guys were laying on the floor by the cardio area bullshiting. I could not believe it.

I was on the Lifecycle and this old dude came in ranting and raving. He had 3 bottles of Steris Cyp and 2 bottles of Syntex AD 50's bunch of spikes. He was yelling and screaming who had sold his kids this shit. How all of us were a bunch of druggies. As he was leaving I went up to and said I work at a Hopital and would give the Dr's the drugs so they could send it back to the pharmecuetcal company. The old bastard threw them at me and said do what you want with them...

At my gym, there's an elevated level where the squat racks are. I was up there doing deads the other day, when I saw this hot latina girl that always distracts me walking in. She starts doing calves right next to the elevated part, putting her about 5 or 6 feet behind me and 2 feet below me. At this point I have 500 lbs on the bar and going to try for 3. I glance at her in the mirror in front of me for motivation knowing she'll be watching me. Bend over grab the bar, huff and puff a little, and start the pull. Now, I'm sure everyone's familiar with the effects of a high protein diet on the GI system. I had my headphones on really loud, so I didn't hear shit, but I felt the release, and it was serious. With my ass aimed right at her face like an anti-aircraft weapon I dropped serious ass. I finished one rep, set it down, sat down and pretended not to notice. I haven't felt like that much of a jackass for a long time. I saw her today and she smiled at me as usual, but this time I think she was just trying not to laugh.
Dude, at least he had 300 on the bar
Dude, I've seen 6 foot 220 dudes come in and bounce 135 on the bar while doing deadlifts, groaning like something crawled up there ass and is slowly moving through his esophogus...
As well, I've seen big guys do amazing ego curls using thier lats, erector spinae, calves, elbows - and very little biceps - throw down the bar after the set, and do a check on the abs to make sure they're still there.
Or maybe the guy who likes to capture an ez-curl bar and load a 45 on each side, put it on the floor, and use it as an achor for his feet so he can do half-assed situps.

This guy in my gym, he's about 6' tall, maybe 170, no mass at all, thin as a rail. He wears his headphones, gloves, gold chain, gold bracelet, and ALWAYS walks around with a big McDonald's cup like he had just finished a value meal and needs a workout to help wash it down. I've seen him there for over a year, and he's still using the same weights. He uses 20lb. dumbells when doing flat dumbbell presses and does these partial reps, and has this look on his face like he's actually lifting heavy. His partial reps are so tiny that he's barely moving his arms at all! I think he's afraid to go up in weight. Would't want to put on any mass! I always want to ask him, "what the hell are you doing with those partial reps?" The dude puts a 25lb. plate on each side of the leg press and acts like he's moving some massive weight. Atleast he's playing it smart by not lifting too heavy, but shit man, put some weight on there!!!.
when i...
a couple of days ago was doing dumbell press with 120's and when I finished my last rep proceeded to put the dumbells down(forcefully) forgetting that my bottle of protein drink was also next to the bench. The dumbell landed on the bottle "POP" the bottle exploded all over this guy sitting next to me, he was covered from the waist up in brown protein shake

there's this big fat bastard who goes to my gym who thinks he's all muscle.I'm pretty sure he's mildly retarded also.Anyway, he does nothing but bench press day in and day out.He won't ask for a spotter, so he scares the shit out of everyone, because he'll slap 375lbs on, drop it on his chest, and scream bloody murder until someone runs over and pulls it off.THe gym owner told me and a few buddies that if we see him come in to the gym, please keep a close eye on him if we don't mind.Of course, we always let him scream a little before we help....
that one last rep..
There was one guy at my gym doin`one handed preacher curl, on his last rep, he could hardly move the weight. He started turning deep red and veins all popping out!! Then he finds newfound strength ,and his arm jets forward smashing the dumbell into his face and breaking his nose, blood everywhere!!, man that was scary..

Bench Press Leg Lifts
Here's a new one that pissed me off but gave me an extra rep on Incline's:
The gym is fairly empty when I get there, so it's not a problem that this was taking place, but here goes.
Some 17 year old kid who looks like a karate champion with his headband and very short shorts and tank top decides to take the barbell of of the bench press. He then gets into position for a bench press and proceeds to grab the barbell rests, puts his legs together and starts doing LEG RAISES for about 10 minutes.
Mind you, this isn't a crazy exercise, but given the fact we have MATS and knee raise machines and other benches why the F*** did he have to waste a bench? Shit like this get's me angry and allowed me to get some extra reps in all exercises. Maybe these new inventions ain' t so bad afterall.

these are SO damn good
except for the one kid, i cant believe someone could push that damn hard, though i think it was FSU's QB Dan Kendra who was doing heavy squats when he pushed so hard he ruptured blood vessels around his eyes or something close to that.
last week a friend of mine took me to his gym. we start doing chest, now this kid is pretty small and lanky maybe 5'10" 150
but damn he's got a pretty strong bench
i was feeling pretty shitty that day, but damn, he was keeping up w/ me sets and reps on everything
i figure this kid should be getting bigger or at least look like he lifts
i come to find out chest is the ONLY thing he does
i tell him if he wants to get bigger he needs squats and leg presses.
he then tells me that "squats stunt your growth, i had a friend who did really heavy squats and he stayed short"
i tell ya i couldnt look at this kid the rest of the time we were there, thats worse than a muscletech ad.
