Whats the stupidest thing you have seen at your gym

[bigp3]

I worked at a gym when I was in college and saw a lot of dumb shit but the best was this old guy running on the treadmill. This hot chick walks by him to get on the stair climber behind him. He turns his head to check her ass out and falls flat on the treadmilll. It then launches him like a torpedo into the mirror breaking the mirror. I laughed so hard I cried

I think I have one of the funniest stories. One day I am working out and bench pressing, and I look to my left and I see a dad and his two sons, one around 20 and the other maybe 17, laying flat on the bench, with their head hung over the bench looking on the floor and moving there neck up and down. It was funny at the time but the next time I saw the younger son doing it while my training partner was there, we cracked up histarically at the guy cause it looks like he is trying to give head to an invisible dick...

I have no idea what benefit this excercise would have.....

This also reminds me an incident that occurred several years back while a friend and I were working out together. Its not so much as funny, but I guess people can be real dicks sometimes.

Anyways, I just hate it when people leave their weights with out stacking them back up, it was a real problem at this particular gym. The gym is pretty much empty, and we’re scattering around to match the dumbbells for our curls. Now this guy comes running out of the bathroom, running towards my friend, and start yelling at him because he grabbed his weights, he wasn’t done using them, started yelling really loud on how “because you think your big you can do anything you want”, haha, well my friend just gave a swift uppercut, and the guy is down for the count… funny part is, the other guy gets thrown out

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.

thats the funniest thing I have read in like a year at least I cried at work over that one

That, my man, is righteous justice!

Man this was a funny ass thread, just spent close to an hour reading the whole thing. That one where the guy farted and the other dude vomited is hilarious!

Anyways here is my contribution:
One of the gyms I frequent there are lots of stuck-up, rich, assholes who think they are god's gift to humanity. They steal benches all the fucking time, even when I got my straps and water bottle on or next to them. I'll ask them to let me finish up but sometimes they just act like they are really into their set and cant talk, and they drag their god damn sets out for 3 minutes, doing like 100 reps. Well anyways I have this problem on a fairly regular basis so I've come up with a nice plan for revenge. If I am laying particularly nasty farts and someone does that shit to me, I will intentionally hold a fart until it's real bad and then walk by the person that stole it and fart either right next to their face or just right next to them. You guys should try this shit, it's priceless to see the looks on their faces, especially if you are getting some of those raunchy protein farts. Some of the guys I do it to make such horrific faces....I mean the kind of faces that would make you think they saw their grandma naked!

Where do I start!!

I personally did not see this but was told by several buddies, there were two rather big guys doing incline chest with about 405 loaded. While one was finishing a set his buddy started screaming and slapping him in the face.

This guy that used to come to my gym. He was more of the powerlifter type. I'd see him load up 405+ lbs on the millitary press rack and do his sets. He would literally bounce the weight off his bald head. The real funny part is his arms were not particularly long. So he was only moving 5-6 inches tops.

Another guy would bench did'nt matter if it was flat or incline with enormous amounts of weights. If he was doing flat bench, he would arch his back so much it looked like he was trying to get it on with the ceiling. He would grunt and scream and maybe do a quarter rep. He would then go off to a corner or the locker room for like five minutes and kneel on the floor. Then do it all over again.

This guy that always wears the same outfit. Sleeveless shirt, tight jeans and cowboy boots. WTF is that.

His "buddy" that wears jeans and flannel type jacket. How do you train in that? Not to mention the only things they do is chest and arms. Chest and arms one day, switch it up to arms and chest the next.

There is a husband/wife duo at my gym who we have labled as the cardio nazi's.....they both come in in singlets.....not wrestling singlets...but the old school bodybuilding ones....the both warm up on the bikes for about 5 minutes..they then proceed to hit their workout which consists of going to each machine doing about 8-10 speed reps.....many slaps on the ass then they run to the next machine.....hammer it out....more ass slappin' then they get serious...and it's ab time baby....they proceed to do 4-5 sets of abs on the slant board....and while the husband is doing his set his wife is repeatedly punching him in the stomach....I haven't gotten to the funny part yet....the whole time this is going on.....the wife is singing along to her headphones.....usually something of the rat pack variety....or some old school shit.....and her husband just stares at her, and bobs his head to her singing....it's actually quite hysterical....but hey....even though we sit here and make fun....in all honesty, at least these people are working out....sort of.....as opposed to becoming old fat obese people...and making everyone else's health insurance go up....
