I'm in college and I see some pretty funny shit on a regular basis. It's about time for everyone to start going to the gym again, so I hope I'm big enough to convince people to leave me the hell alone.
Some people care too much about what other people are wearing, lifting or talking about in the gym.. Honestly, I'm way too focused in there to even notice what else is going on.. I'm usually talking to myself, huffing and puffing before a lift, and then pacing in order to keep myself from passing out after some heavy deadlifts..
But maybe its so they don't drop a plate on their cute little toesies.
A few years ago I was in Manhattan on business and asked the hotel concierge to refer me to a hardcore gym. (I went to college in Manhattan, but that was decades ago.) Ended up at this gym where everyone, men and women wore boots.
Turned out i was the only straight person in the joint, and the women were all bigger than the men. It was in Chelsea, so I shoulda' known.
