Whats the stupidest thing you have seen at your gym

about 90% of the stupidest things I have ever seen come from one group of jokers. there are 4 of them that workout together. little tiny bastards. after each set of some made up excercise they get up strut around the gym looking in the mirror and doing thier hair. all of their workout is done on the machines with mirrors in front of them. the other day they were doing upright rows on the smith machine, which is fine with me cause that might be the only thing a smith machine is good for. but the best one is their bench press/leg lift bs. as the weight is coming down they lift their legs up to about 45 deg. and lower them as they lift the wieght. one of them fell of the bench the other day , funnies thing I've seen yet.
 
people who load 4-5 plates on straight bar on the squat rack to do shoulder shrugs & all they do is stand on their toes.
 
B]He will then jump up and down while the other two guys slap his ass every time he lands.[/B]

The Almighty did it again...

I can't believe no one else commented on this one!!!


What the HELL is he talking about?????
 
Double for me....

In all fairness, it sounds like he was stupid to use the chair, and the gym was RETARDED to leave it on site!

Yeah, the gym had it coming. Of course, to be fair, I've refused to train in places I felt were unsafe.

On boners, been there. Of course, I usually hope nobody notices it. Sounds like this guy goes around and shows it off.

Cell phones aren't bad if someone really needs one. Of course, I can't stand it if they yak on them while they should be training.
 
So far this is by far the funniest post I've ever read.

My workout partner and I have a name for everyone in the gym. The hot girl that was first seen with FSU on the ass of her shorts is appropriately referred to as "FSU", and so on. It makes sense

Well there is this annoying fuck at the gym. In his late 50's. Wears black all the time and this black or baby blue ski hat. Not so odd...? Well folks this is Boca Raton, Florida. He has a squinty eye and never shuts up. Spitting image of Popeye. Hence the name... Popeye. He's known by everybody at the gym by this. He will do any excercise where there are people to talk to around. He even gets close., my partner or I will elevate the DEFCON level so we know that he's there. There's 3 rules when he's aroung.
#1 don't make eye contact
#2 if he talks to you anyway don't talk back
#3 refer back to rule #1 and repeat
The 1st time you talk to him, he thinks he's your friend and never shuts up. Ever. Days later. I've seen too many people make the mistake of talking to him, even if just to tell him to shut up and go away.

The one thing I hate more than that is people who leave the dumbells wherever they finished using them. Well Popeye decided he was going to do this as well. We are at DEFCON 5 (he's working out right next to us) and Popeye and leaving his dumbells. Not just one set, but the 15's 20's 25's and 30's. This was a dangerous combination, not to mention I was in week 6 of a cycle. As he's walking away I start launching these dumbells at him telling him to put his fucking shit away. Well he didn't dare come back, scared the shit out of him...myself as well. Regardless, after this situation we don't ever get to DEFCON 2. He won't come near us.

There use to be this guy that worked out in the gym I was at that would always have a bag full of veggies and fruits. He always wore a red bandana around his nappy head and looked like a freak......I called him Survivor.

i lift at the ymca so we get a good mixed crowd of weight lifters, old people, and just plain retarded people.

I really hate when the old people get on the lat pull down and pull the bar down and touch it on there knees........................



Holy shit, I can't believe someone else has seen this too. I saw some old fart doing this a few years back, I was like mesmerized, thinking to myself, "What the fuck are you doing old man?!"

"lmao"
 
I hate working out next to an old folk and they rip this loud as fart that sinks like the dead carcus of a cow and everyone can hear it .. and every turns around to looks at you, and the old folk acts like nothing happen
 
I get a kick out of watching people on the seated rows; they pull on the weight letting their entire body go back and forth throughout the excercise. Come people, if you are going to do an exercise, please use proper form cause you look like an idiot.:p

I thought that eventually this guy HAS to show up if i read thru all of the posts. Known him for about 8 years. Seems to follow me from gym to gym. It is a curse. He has been warned at all of the gyms he has worked out at for many of his actions. My first encounter with him was at a gym in Pompano Beach, FL in the ab workout area. He was doing leg lifts on decline sit-up bench...and of course this is one of the rare occasions that he wasn't wearing his token black baggies. He had on short shorts and his saggy old nuts were floppin' out and all over the place.

That was years ago and he is still causing trouble....and he is ALWAYS at the gym. His workouts must last 4-5 hours so he works up quite a sweat/funk and never wipes anything down. I confronted him about this one day and he had no good excuse for his actions so he just said it wasn't him. Well a couple of days later he comes up and starts talkin' to me like we are old buddies. And if you ever have a conversation with him of more than 30 second (which i hope you never do) he manages to work in racist comments. His favorite is "monkey". He even called my ex who was the manager at one of the gyms a "wetback"....and he is cuban or mexican himself.

Gym staff is just lookin' for a reason to kick him out so maybe the curse will be broken and he won't be around much longer.
 
Rubberband men

We had two rubber band men at our gym. They would tie these industrial sized rubber bands to the bottom of the squat rack. Then they would loop the ends over the ends of the bar after It's loaded. They would squat to a wooden box. But they would crash down on it, sit there for a couple seconds, bellow like a water buffalo then do a half squat/ good morning.

They got tossed from the gym after they bent every good Olympic bar in the joint.

Oh by the way, they were both Jabba the Hut look-a-likes!!
 
Recently there have been few guys talking on their cell with their ear phone (hands free) and working out at the same time. This is quite annoying seeing them to bench press, bicep curls...etc
 
Too bad that this is an old post because it is funny as shit. I don't have training partner so I don't get to share my funny experiences with anyone, I just think about it as I lift the barbells and listen to loud music. Ok, I work out twice a day right now and there is this guy with flaming red hair cut in a spikey topped mullet that flows shoulder length. He always where cut off jean shorts and combat boots with a tight white tee-shirt. He walks bull legged with his arms hung out like a jackass because he is trying to walk like a big man. I'm not huge, but WTF????!!! Try working out with that nightmare strutting around.
 
This doorman i use to work with would get in the butt-master machine and work shoulders.
He thought it was a shoulder machine press.
I told him it was a great machine and we used it all the time.
 
This is something I heard in the gym, not saw. I don't see many mad incidents in my gym but laugh at the utter bullshit that people say.

Only yesterday I overheard a guy saying he did GH when he went to the US for 6 weeks. He then goes on to tell the two people listening that he did 2ml everyday (he said most do 10ml) and it made him huge, mad and made his balls shrink. What a retard.
 
There is this guy at my gym my brother and I call Flat Chest.. This guy has huge arms, shoulders, but chest is about as flat as a wall and no neck what so ever. When doing curls, he sounds like a hydraulic, when walking he pivots side to side like a penguin..
 
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 :D
 
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!
 
This guy who wears gloves and a belt for EVERY exercise (even abs) and walks around like billy badass.
what an idiot
 
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....:p
 
i saw someone load eight plates on each side of the leg press sled and just sit there doing nothing for about 15 minutes. then he unloaded them and moved on. dont really know whats wrong with this guy.
foo

Good call bro. theres alot of funny stuff that goes on in a gym...but alot of them do what they think is right and what will work for them. At least there putting out some kinda of an effort.
 
i was doing chins one day and a guy about 30 look like he's maybe from israel or turkey or something goes walking to the bench press station with his arms way out to the sides. anyways he loads it to 135, and after his first rep he yells:
"MONEY!"

i turned my head around like wtf
after next rep he yells:

"POWER!"

next rep:

"VEEMEN!" (standard immigrant pronunciation of 'women')

"STRENGTH!"

and then back to MONEY.
needless to say, the fukin bastard ruined my workout, i couldnt stop laughing long enough to finish a proper set. actually, everybody in the place was laughing, he was too embarassed to do it the next set.
as if bench pressing is going to give him money power women and strength.
okay maybe strength.
 
I was in the gym after class on Thursday and was rolling after seeing this shit...
Ok, for the past few weeks I keep seeing these two wannabe G-style guys coming in the gym at around the same time I'm in there. Well this particular day only one of them came in- not alone mind you, but with his hoe (hoe or not she was a sexy woman...). He racks up 135 on incline to warm up I presume. He then racks 185, gets maybe 4-5 reps and kills the set. So I'm watching this pathetic show off in the mirrors start to pull the 25lber's off, thinking he's done with the bench. Next thing I know he's tossing on another plate. About this time I'm shaking my head, between exercises, watching the gym assistant rolling his eyes as if to say "fuck, instead of standing around I'll have to help this pap smear..."
Well this moron lays back on the bench, still yakking with his woman, grabs the bar, seems to heave and relaxes.
Of course he plays it off and keeps talking to his old lady (like nothing happened lol). He waits a couple and grabs the bar again. By this time I'm about 10 feet from the dickless wonder doing skullcrushers.
His woman is standing close to him, he's pumped, feels the cold steel bar in his hands-trying to send himself into the void created by the mind when enduring harsh physical trauma. He heaves this final time...
And alas!!! He doesn't move the bar a fuckin inch. There wasn't so much as a clank:FRlol:
What a pathetic fuck:rolleyes:

SwitchedOn
 
McBane that shit was killing me man. I can just picture some big bodybuilder doing that to the skinny patrons that fuck up our workouts. AHh never the less here is mine.

Well I used to work out at this one gym that was just closed down a couple months back, well in this gym we had this one guy that had just started coming in like 3 months before the place closed. He would walk around with his arms puffed out at his sides even though he had NO LATS!!! His arms were pretty shitty maybe a lean 15inches nothing special in the least. Well this guy no matter what would have his arms out, he walked around with this look on his face like he could kick tysons ass. He also had this fucking ANNOYING habit of standing in front of a mirror putting his hands together in front of him and rubbing them back and forth so I guess he could see his muscles. Damn I hated this fucker, we started calling him "Train Wreck" it's something you don't want to look at but something draws you to state.

Well anyway this ass pounder never does anything but arms hell thats all I ever seen him do except one time he did bench and struggled with 135 for like 8 reps. His brother/cousin I was never sure because my lifting partner and I thought they were inbred. Well this guy we called "the cable guy" he would NEVER do ANYTHING but tricep cable machines. He would come in there and tie the fucking cable machine up for 2 hours EVERY DAY!!! He would have the handle and its hard to describe but he would grab it at the top and pull it down to his waist then turn his wrist over and do like a lat pushdown. It done nothing for his triceps but the fucker did it everyday. I couldn't stand these two asspounders and was glad that gym closed down and the new one I am at they haven't came to yet. Thank you God.

heh this is actually a fairly common exercise for physical therapy for neck problems. I know the exact exercise you are talking about because I used to do it and my buddies would always laugh their asses off when I'd do it lol
 
I saw some asshole thinking he was hot shit preacher curling 55lbs dbs at lightning fucking speed and he cracked himself in the mouth, started bleeding everywhere and probably chipped several teeth.. He didn't know what to do with himself so he made a mad dash for the bathroom.... Me and a few of the others at the gym couldn't stop laughing (of course to ourselves, so as not to attract captain moron's attention when he returned to finish his lightning fast preacher curls, and then proceed to massacre the form of some other exercise ;))

YUM

you be livin it up

I love to call kats out like that. like one time this guy was doing incline DB bench with like 60lbs and woudl jsut drop them from the top of his lift. he was like they are so heavy you could not put them down soft. so I jsut grabed the 120's and hit like 4 reps and put them down like a baby

my dad did that to one of the staff guys at my gym who always bothers people. I think they put 315 on the bar, the guy couldnt do one and my dad repped it out. LOLs
 
hmmmmmm here two I remember

- I see a guy pushing some weights, I look at him and I says to myself, hmm he around 230 or so. 30min later I go in the lockers and guess who I see, the lad, and at his side, 3 sweaters, 4 tshirt all wet, and the dork a skinny 150lbs dude on 6'.

-3 weeks ago, doing squats, I have 760lbs, I am performing my set, I am going down and that fucking jerk (stupid idiot, with a nice accent, fat like a fuck, tons of jewelry, and hairy like a monkey) bounced on ME, not once BUT THREE TIMES!!!!!!!
 
this one dude at my gym puts his cell phone in the gym lockers by the free weights. when it rings (really f'in loud) he RUNS by everyone to pick it up. then he walks around the whole fucking gym past the treadmills stair masters etc. back to the free weights A FEW TIMES making sure everyone can see him and hear him. every damn time i see him at the gym he will be on his phone at some point walking by everyone. its like dude you dont need to prove to anyone that you have friends u fag...
 
A guy was doing dumbell side bends . The part I don't get is, why the hell was he holding a dumbell in both hands??
 
1) People that try to perform a set w/ too much weight...recking all form what-so-ever.
- these two fags come in and load up the curl bar w/ 55lbs on each side, the proceed to perform preacher curls on going through the top 1/4th of the range of motion.

2) The guys that sweat like a whores in church and neglect to wipe of the equipment.

3) Fat guys who think they are strong...

4) People who fill up HUGE water bottles at the water fountain.

5) Extremely hairy guys who workout w/out shirts.

6) People who workout in sandals. (I like to do dumbell work next to them, and drop the DBs til they move away.)

7) There are more...
 
There is a million of these arent there?? OK, got this older guy in my gym, early fifties....not in great shape...Wears all the gear all at once...Complete with big towel around his neck ....Always doggs me. He is always trying to do alot of weight around me, as I lift fairly heavy...So the other day, he decides to bench after me. I go to incline after doing flat. He goes over to the bench and loads up 285lbs...I go " shit" thats alot for that guy, he's not even warm"... talking to a friend...we watch..Takes the bar off and attempts to get it off his chest, when his Tricep DETATCHES with a big snap!!...we just stood there, "holy shit, did you see that???" the guy left in horrible pain and has not returned as of yet ....
 
Watching some guy trying to figure out how to use a Pec Deck...and trying to get his legs up there thinking it was used for a leg exercise!! LOL!!!!!
 
actually i did something totally fuckin stupid at gym once, the dumbells used to go up to 100lbs only in the gym i was training at, and i used to love doing dumbell overhead triceps extensions, but obviously the 100lbs were too light so i used to get some blu tack and stick on 10lb plates all the way up to 150lbs, now this worked for about 4 months until these two little guys insisted on spotting me, anyhow they droped the plated onto my head, there was blood everywhere, i couldnt even see cus it was all in my eyes.

Hardcore training or stupidity you decide.
 
Mine is definitely the GQ weightlifters. Come in with gel in there hair and their structure jeans and gap shirts...work out for an hour which consists of 15 minutes of lifting and 45 minutes of talking.....or the guy that wears the same body armour shirt everyday like he has 7 of them....then my all time fav....Kid Rock look-a-like...ten inch guns...mad tatoos and a wife beater on!

as long as you hang it out to dry properly you can wear under armour for the entire week. And I hate those pretty boys to that come in the gym and try to jump in with me on certain exercises, then cant do em and lower the weight, fuck ups...
 
at one local gym by where i live they have benches that are only about 8inches off the ground. there is one guy i usually never go there but when i did i saw this kid with 385 on the bar. he is only about 180 so i was confused. with his father spotting him he took the bar off the rack and lifted his butt off the bench about a foot or more, cutting the range of motion in half and bouced it like a madman. he got it. now the sad thing is i constantly hear stories about how much this kid can bench! he goes around telling everyone. it makes me look bad becuase i can do slightly more legitametly on a real bench with good form. needless to say i hate this person. anyone ever heard anything like this?

People who cannot or will not rack their weights.

I work out in one of those fancy-type health clubs. I can't find a decent HC gym.

Man, I miss fucking Gold's gym on Cole X Santa Monica. That is the best fucking gym!


Anyway, at my gym, I see stuff like 45 dumbell adjacent to a 95 dumbell, dumbells on the floor. I think it's the mentality of the middle-upper class that they're too good to put stuff away. --that's for the immigrant workers. Further evidenced by the towels all over the gym.

I don't care what you do with them -- grunt like a pig, use them wrong, overarch your back -- just please, PUT THE WEIGHTS BACK WHERE THEY BELONG.

Thank you :)
 
All of the little guys that actually think the fitness chicks will give them the time of day. Other than that, there's a guy that comes in and trains in his damn khaki's, white shirt and necktie. Oh yeah, and the guys that will put a 25 and 2 10's on one side of a barbell and a 45 on the other (wtf?)
 
At the University gym I work out at, there are a bunch of characters.

There is this huge ass asian guy (5'11'', 315lbs, ~40% bodyfat) who works out alone, grunts, and talks to himself. He was doing shoulder presses, and when he finished he started rambling loadly to himself as normal. I stopped by leg extentions to hear what he was saying -
"Anata wa sumo desuka? (pause, as if waiting for a response) ANATA WA SUMO DESUKA!?!?!? (pause) HAI!!!! (now screaming to himself) WATASHI WA SUMO DESU!!!!

I speak a little bit of Japanese, and the guy was saying

"Are you a sumo? ....... ARE YOU A SUMO!?!?!? YES!!!!! I AM A SUMO!!!!!"

he then slaps his hands together and starts another set. I just about shit myself.


There is also this one guy, about 70 years old, 5'8''. 110lbs, 9% bodyfat(his small as frame is actually somewhat defined) who comes into the gym wearing nothing but black daisy dukes. No shirt, socks, wife-beater, just this six inch coil of fabric. The whole gym loves the guy.
 
1) Little 180lbs fuckers who walk around the GYM and act like they are the shit. Then you see these little shits out at the club wearing tight shirts, and they need to be punched because their is nothing to brag about!!
2) That 1 guy in the gym who has been their for years and has not made one change with his physique, and you feel like telling him to pick another hobby.
3) Guys who act like their Arnold and try to spread their knowledge about weights when actually they dont know shit.
4) UGLY fat chicks in spandex on the tred, (stay at home w/ Richard Simmons)
5) Personal Trainers who look like shit.
 
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 was hoping that this thread was still here. This just happened this morning. My side is still hurting from laughing so hard. THANK GOD, no one was hurt....... Here goes.......


I am in the back row in the cardio section of my gym doing my 30 minutes on the stair stepper. You know, the big one that stands way above all the other machines. It's 6 a.m. and the gym is freaking packed! It looks like a Monday afternoon at 6 p.m. obviously, all the "new years resolution" people are here to put their 3 weeks in.

In walk a couple of newbees. Brand new workout clothes. Both in their mid 30's, I'd guess. He heads off to the locker room, and she walks over to the magazine rack. After about 5 minutes of uncertainty of what to do, they both decide to get on the tread mills right in front of me. I'm watching the news, so I'm not really paying too much attention to everything that’s happening.... About 5 minutes go by.

All of a sudden, I hear a boom and I see the guy slip on the treadmill. It's like I'm watching this in slow motion. His legs go out from underneath him. He manages to grab the handlebar on the front of the tread mill and is hanging on like someone hanging on to the bumper of a car going 30 miles an hour. His legs are flailing around trying to get some footing and WHAM, the treadmill grabs the bottom of his sweat pants and off they come!! At this point, I'm laughing so hard, I'm tripping on the steps trying to stay on top of the machine to watch. All this while, his wife is just walking on her machine, watching, not knowing what to do. Once he realizes that his pants are off, panic sets in and he grabs for his wife’s hand. She reaches out to grab it, catches his hand and as he lets go of the machine, the running treadmill drags him off, and drags her diagonally across the side bars of her machine, catching her top and lifting it, along with her bra, right over her freaking head. They both land in a pile on the floor, right in front of my machine, him with no pants on, and her with her top and bra wrapped over the top of her head.

I’m laughing so hard at this point that off I go, right on my ass and into the wall behind me. By the time I caught my breath, all I saw was their ass ends, heading out the front door.

My ass is sore from landing on it, but today is chest day for me.

I laugh at this every time time I re- tell your story, I had the whole bar busting-up the other night
funny sh*t buff
 
Today I saw a guy using the knee holdowns on the lat pulldown machine as handholds to do puch ups from.

he was compounding these with upright machine chest presses.
 
I feel compelled to add to this thread.

My friends were jokin on me so im like, yea. . . i step up on the bench they are using grab the 135 they are benching proceed to step down and curl it, but i roll my ankle n fall hard. That was pretty embarrasing, but the gym loved it haha.

I was givin sum1 advice one time and leaned on the decline bench and the pin wasnt all the way in and it went down and so did i.

I can keep goin, but thats just stuff thats happened to ME. Id need another thread for more haha.
 
There's this creepy dude at my gym about 40 years old, Italian- goes around punching the opposite pectoral. He's got crazy eyes and talks to himself under his breath saying, "I work out so I can kick ass, look at me." "yah, im gonna lift and beat someone's ass" ...different variations on this. Maybe it's roid rage.
 
This shit is so funny, the sad part is, is that it really happens all the time! I can't stop laughing! I love the guys that when they lift, they aren't even concentrating, you can see them looking out of the corners of their eyes to see who is watching them!
 
im far from the strongest guy in my gym, but i at least strive to pull good form no matter what, but there are these 3 guys that ALWAYS seem to be in there when i go in with my brother, and they do curls not only on the squat rack, but with THE ONLY SQUAT BAR IN THE WHOLE GYM. ok the mirrors at the sqat rack are best set up if your worried about form for curls, but why the hell use the bar?

but anyway, without fail these guys end up swinging their backs back to > like angles, basically if you can load up an excercise with to much weight, and do it with bad form, these guys can do it.

farting in one corner of the gym and the whole room smelling it is still my biggest claim to fame
 
theres this one kid that comes in and has to use the bench when i do. Im doing 5x5 @ 195 hes doing 3x8 @ 145 half rep style i just walk away and get water otherwise id prolly kill him.
 
once there were these three (just laugh this isnt slander) black sorority girls that were sitting by the dumbbell rack on 3 separate benches just talkin. they all had different weights out and hadnt touched them for about 10 minutes. When one of them got up for some reason, i went and sat in her seat in the middle of them and did a set of shoulder press. All three of them gave me the stare of death... Not only did they stop talking they all put their hands on their hips and stared at me for at least 2 minutes after i got finished. Just to spite them i sat there, i just happened to be listening to music on an mp3 player so i completly ignored everything they said or did. i smirked the whole way back to the other side of the gym. I dont think ive seen any one of them in there since then, come to think of it i didnt see any of them in there before that day
 
does anyone ever get those martial arts guys come in the gym and do high kicks and shit right infront of you that pisses me off they have studio's for that shit.
 
I dont know if you all want to hear this but sometimes theres guys jerking off in the shower at my gym. Keep in mind i live in San Francisco. But one time this guy came in , id seen him working out and he like ran into the showers following some guy , and started beating off right there and the whole time had his tongue out and was ...y'know like sticking it out and moving it around a lot. so he beats off watching this guya nd the whole time im showering and the guy pretends to not even notice other people around. And this is the best part. Whe he "finishes" he goes back and get sdressed again in his gym clothes and continues his workout.

I dont know about retards in the gym, but lately there has been this one hot ass girl that keeps distracting me in the gym. In my gym the hammer strengths are right next to the stretching area and it seems like everytime I am over there she has to come over there and start stretching. She doesn't just do normal stretches either,for instance she will turn her back to me, bend over grab her ankles and start moving back and forth in a "fuck me" like motion and then turn around and give me a big smile. Everytime she does it I pop wood and have to quickly move so she doesnt see it. Makes for an interesting work out but really distracts the fuck out of me. I know this doesn't really fit in ths thread but thats the only out of the ordinary gym story I have.

Lmao!

I have two.....

There is a guy in my gym who grunts at the top of his lungs when he does his sets. From the first rep and he does about 15-20 rep range. It doesnt even look like he is stressing at all. One day girl walked up to him in the gym and told him to shut up because he was looking like an asshole. He got so pissed off that he took a swing at her. She sweeped under it and knockedhim out like Mike Tyson. She was about 115 lbs.

There is another guy who comes to my gym and always wears spandex biker shorts and a tank top that he could slide throught the top of. Well one day he was walking around like he was Mr. BiggShit and a friend of mine was, girl, was doing curls and he came over as she finished her set and told her that he was going to show her how to do them. He picked up the barbells and started to show her and she grabbed his biceps and told him that they they remind her of something. He goes Arnold's arms and she said no my b/f left testicle you fagot, no give me my weights.

I think I actually pissed myself......
 
After reading this I had to add mine. I won't get exact about where my gym is but its one thats open all night and its Plano Texas. Anyway there is this guy who is there everyday I am there and I work out 5 days a week but change the days, so my guess is hes there 7 days a week. He wears the same camo House of Pain tank top everyday and although hes only 5'7" hes kinda cut up. The thing is, I have NEVER seen him lift a weight, he just walks around and spots people, he has his towel and water bottle though like hes gonna work out. He'll help one guy work out and when that dude is done he'll wait on someone else he knows to show up so he can spot them. Such a dweeb...
 
I saw this middle aged couple come into the gym one day. The guy was wearing some tight bluejeans tucked into a pair of black wrestling shoes, with a white cutoff sleave shirt that said some shit like go hard or go home or some saying like that. He was bald with a go tee. If Stone Cold Steve Austin wasn't his idle then I don't know who he was trying to look like. That wasn't so bad, except for the fact that his wife was as big as he was and was wearing the exact same outfit. Only difference...She had a mullet. They were both pretty built though so I wasn't going to say anything.
 
Hahaha@ some of the stories..

I was at Bally's one day and some guy was in the process of doing a squat.. This guy throws a massive amount of weights on and proceeds to lift the bar. Once the bar is lifted this asshat drops down to the squat position, and with a loud grunt :o - proceeded with the loudest most wet, sweaty ass slappin fart you'd ever hear :sick:. He's struggling to get the weight back up as the corner of the room reaks of his smelly ass crack and 4 week old gym shorts that have been sitting in his locker for ages

But wait, that isn't it.. It get's better :D


He get's up, takes his weight belt off, and scratches his ass and sniffs his finger. At least this is what he appeared to be doing. Anyway, as the guys walkin away in utter disgust - I noticed a friggin shit stain on the back of his shorts.. This cat shit himslef :mix: ahahaha

That made my day..

Which reminds me, never eat taco bell and go workout within 2 hours from each other..

Hey man. I have placed clients on that type of training and when I am leaning up I will superset jumping jacks or plyometrics with an exercise. Don't mock it until you try it. Its not going to get you huge or pack on lean muscle mass, but great for leaning up. So by no means am I saying this is the way to train for quality lean muscle mass, but to kick up the fat burning with intensity I think its great. Give it a try. Peace. And if you think this type of training is stupid, then go to www.t-mag.com and look at some of the fat burning routines. They do programs similiar to this. Great stuff and if you still think its stupid then stick to fuckin pathetic magazines like flex. A bunch of pictures of half naked guys and girls running around. No science, no education, just shit!!!!!! Peace.

Flex rules, if you want some lardy pencilneck prick telling you that some one-arm cable twisting movement is best for building up a certain muscle then read some shit like t-mag.
 
Got one guy at my gym who just started lifting like a month ago. He seems like a nice guy but annoys the shit outta me with what he does. Walks into the gym, says hi to everyone like he's known them for life, and then goes straight to the flat bench to do dumb bell presses. In between sets, he walks around bellowing "light weight....light weight." Yeah well it is light weight.....at 65-75lb bells. Then he'll start critiquing others doing the same as if he's been lifting for his entire life. So after a month of lifting, I see him passing a paper on to a big guy in the gym who deals. Big guy takes the paper, and when the guy is gone, just starts laughing at what the guy wants (juice wise). Month in and you're already lookin for the juice....IDIOT!!!!
 
there is dude who comes in dresses as a chick and deads 3 plates on each side

she flirts with me

and I don;t liek it
 
i would have to say the stupidest thing i have ever seen at my gym would be.......i witness a dude using weight collers on the smith mach. while he was doing squats.......like the weight was going to fall off or something....
 
this happened almost 6 years ago when i was in High School living in maine. me and a friend of mine are at the Y lifting, and my girlfriend at the time was one the other side of the gym lifting with her sister. my friend gets under the bar to start benching, and i see this guy walk into the gym. this dude was wearing a pair of skin tight daisy duke grey shorts, and 2XL tank top, these thick horned rimmed glasses, and has this leopard skin towel drapped over his shoulder. i got bad eyesight, so i look at my friend and im like "dude, check this shit out" he sits up, the guys walks by, and we realize that it is Stephen King (ya know, the author who writes all the books.) anyway, we watch him, as he goes over to db curls, and stands right next to my gf. the fuckin guy was grunting real hard, biting his lip and flaring his nostrils like he's curling 80's but he's only got 20's in his hands, all the while he's still got his leopard skin towel over his shoulder. i look at my gf in the mirror, and she has this look of disgust in her face. me and my bro start crackin up at him, and he drops the db and just stares. we could only imagine that he was thinking about his next book and that we were gonna end up in it, getting slaughtered for laughing our asses off at him
 
at my old gym there was this old guy who would wear really short shorts and his junk would just hang out whenver he sat down to bench or anything. He would sit there with his legs open and strike up conversations like his cock wasn't hanging out on the bench.

1. Little guys pulling their sleeves up over and over again because they are too small for them to stay up.

2. Little guys giving stupid tips they think are good and they say them really loud so everyone can hear him giving tips.

3. Fat guys who lift too much weight so that they can't even do 2 reps by them self, even though a little guy could do it 10 times.

4. Little guys who flirt with girls for 10 minutes at a time and do a set which takes 5 seconds.

5. Guys that take juice for the first time and think they are superman even though they get no results.

If I owned a jym, you would have to pass a test to be accepted, no jokers allowed.

Amen to that, so many stupid people use my gym theres even this one guy who runs around the gym for his warm up. There was me during a set and the little prick starts running around in circles. Had me in fits of laughter.
Another stupid thing was a guy who thought it would be 'cool' to see if he could run faster than the running machine on its highest settings, he ended up tripping and the machine launched him several meters away it was hilarious :FRlol:
 
I saw a moron trainer working with a couple. He had them performing bicep curls simultaneously side by side using an olympic bar. Needless to say, the female injured her back and the trainer was sent packing.

Jenetic

I saw a guy tonight huffing and puffing getting mentaly ready for a set. I mean this guy was slapping his biceps and all that. Anyways he approaches the rack of weights and straps in to a 35lbs pair of dumb bells and then does a set of 10 curls. the funniest thing is that he grunted so loud the whole time that the whole gym was watching. I mean why are you going to use wrist straps on curls?

Any other stupid stories
Stories, yeah i got a million of em. There was this fatass guy called Terry who apparently was a lifetime member at the gym in Australia where me and my buddy used to train at. Typical moron comes in does a bunch of useless half reps, spends most of the time leaning on the squat rack chewing gum and talking crap. Anyway his best claim to fame besides bench press....Was doing standing bicep/gut curls. He would load 2 x 45 pound plates on an olympic bar and throw it up and down with his enormous belly in sets of 3, grunting and wheezing the whole time. After a while we used to mock him by immitating the chew gum and lean on the squat rack routine ( smirking. :evil: )

OH WAIT I just remembered a classic.

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.
That was hugely fucking funny bro!! :supercool
 
I have seen so much stupid shit in the gym over the years I could post all day about it! I've been LMAO reading this thread, this is the best!

One of the most recent ones I can think of was when I was down in the lower 48 for a few days. I was at this little hole in the wall gym in this Podunk little town when I see what is a potential "gym idiot" walk in. I was right. This guy struts around for a few minutes like he's deciding which machine he's gonna "work over" today. He finally chooses the cable crossover machine as todays "victim". He drops the adjustable pulley handles just below waist level and starts some weird side-to-side Gliding/side hop movement. As he glides to one side of the machine he then jerks the handle across his body and lets out a blood curdling groan, which for the first few glides makes me wonder if this guy is gonna have an anurism right on the spot. Then when he's done he goes back into his strut again. I found myself like a deer in the headlights for the whole glide routine, like a bug and a bug zapper, I just couldn't take my eyes off this absolute moron!!


I do have one thing that pretty much grinds me to the floor everytime though.
The STUPIDEST shit I see at the gym, hands down, is these dumb-ass "Personal Trainers". There are a select few that always show up late in the morning looking like they just rolled out of bed. They walk up to their client holding their Mocha that caused them to be 10 minutes late and proceed to half train their client and half socialize with everyone else in the gym, and then after 40 minutes slaps 'em on the back, collects their money and sends 'em packin'. I hate that shit!!
