Gym Ignorance "Dont be that guy or girl"
Over the years I have been to many different gyms, Everything from the large fitness centers with way to much cardio equipment and the shitty rubber weights that make u look like a beast when its 25lbs to the powerhouse 99% of everything in there is free weights (what i prefer)
But no matter what there are always dumb asses that break the unspoken code
The most important ones :
(1) The second I stand up, leaving my 2 gallon jug of water, binder and stopwatch on the bench does not mean I am done, so don't unrack it or move my stuff unless u want my roid rage to kick in
(2) Dont be the guy who racks up 45 pound plates on a military press and start grunting and moaning like your breaking a world record
(3) DO not, be the guy who stands directly in front of you or directly behind you when you are in the middle of a lift, I picked that place away from everyone for a reason
(4)Dont be the dude that trys talking to you for 35 mins straight after I already started the workout, I know your just doing cardio but I'm trying to be a fcking beast
(5) * (Happened yesterday) Do not be the high school kid doing situps directly behind my squat rack when I am trying to max out, and then stare at me. Next time I will roll my bar off my back and paralyze you
Those are some of the few that set me off, which ones get your Roid Rage Kicked into top gear?

Quite a lot tbh thats already been mentioned...There is this though and it gets my tit ends swelling,when you see a pretty fat guy (Not that fat means weak,or anything bad at all).Who is using the cable's to do his biceps,I understand some may like cables for bi's but there is a preature stand like 15ft from the cable's.You can isolate the bi there and burn as much as you like.Anyway the fella's literaly spilling pints of water all over the place,what does he do?He grabs his litre of water and drowns himself out even more after every set,then he finishes another set,peel's his shirt from his skin for a little air....And starts glugging even more water,there's debatable,stupid and really f-ing clueless and I know which category this falls into.
heres for you.....how about the wanna webster sized peckerheads that think having a shit ton of wieght on the bar is all you need to look strong. Ready for this one to understand what I mean.....these two little guys are on flat bench mind you I gotta do other shit till they get done. Tiny number one has like 225 on ready to go. tiny number two helps him unrack it. So he gets it down to his chest and back up like two inches screaming and grunting befoer his buddy helps him get him up. OBVIOUSLY he failed and its to much wieght. So what does this ignorant peckerhead do? He puts another 25 on each side. Im like WTF!!!!!!!!! So again he lays down,they get it unracked and the bar goes smashing down on his chest and his friend can barely get it off of him. I laughed my ass off. Good for him. Why the hell would you add more plates if you failed the first damn time.
As far as you guys talking about having home equipment. I have a full squat rack with adjustable hooks on the front for bench,shoulder press,etc... 315 pound olympic wieder set with an extra 100 pounds of plates. various dumbells and have my lat attachment that hooks to the back of the squat rack on order as we speak which can hold up to 300 pounds. All in all I can do alot of shit in the garage when I cant get to the gym or dont wanna deal with the idiots. However I still get those days where I just gotta go to the gym with the rest of my juice head boys and throw some serious shit around.
cycoYEA HOME GYMS R GREAT TOO,,I THINK IF U GOT DA TIME N MONEY BOTH R DA BEST OF BOTH WORLDS. THERE R TIMES WHEN U DON;T WANT TO TAKE DA LONG JOURNEY,OR U SO WIRED UP U CAN;T WAIT TO BUST DA IRON WALLS..BUT I BEEN IN DA GAME A LONG TIME,,MY OLDLADY GOT MAD AT ME CUZ THIS KID LAST WEEK KEPT PUTTING WGHT ON DA BAR AND GETTING STUCK,AND I HAD TO GET UP N RESCUE HIM TWICE,,DA LIL PUNK WOULD NOT LEARN HIS LESSON,SO HERE GOES DA THIRD TIME HE GETS STUCK WIT 155 LBS I GET UP STAND OVER HIM WIT MY BALLS RIGHT OVER HIS MOUTH AND MAKE HIM SAY HIS A,B,C;S THEN TELL HIM TO SAY IT BACKWARDS FROM Z TO A HE WAS TRYING 2 SQUIRM BUT I HELD IT DOWN ON HIS CHEST TILL HE FINISHED AND 4 MINS LATER HE DID IT,,I HAD A STOPWATCH YES LOL..MY WIFE GOT MAD AND FELT SORRY FOR HIM,,WELL HE SAID THANKS SO I GUESS HE WAS GREATFUL
AnonYou are lucky mate that is one hillarious dude you have at your gym. If i was you i would have him as my training buddy
Your home setup sounds great mate which shows no matter what gym you going to, it is never a waste to have a good setup at home. But yes like you say at times it is much better to hit the gym. I am contemplating of registering for 3 months while i am on this cycle so i can have a spotter. But i am worried i might waste the cash it is been a long time since i last stepped in a gym
Yeah little by little I add more equipment to the garage but like you said about having a spotter thats why I still go to the gym. Ill do chest at home but not real heavy. Chest is the main day i go to the gym. Even though I know my max and shouldnt have an issue its better safe than sorry. Get your results my friend. Your not gonna be wasting the money. Do the three months and when you go to the gym just get your money worth. Hit it hard,hit it heavy,and go home sore as fuck lol
Cant beat a spotter when your on your limit,3 big 1's and 3 more with a little help.Awesome for shocking the muscle and it need's to be done...
AnonIndeed with a spotter you can almost double your results. When working out alone though it is a little bit more dangerous, makes it more exciting danger wise but not as productive ofc.
AnonWhen gothic calls me a BITCH during the middle of a set while I'm working my bi's...
GUILTY.... I was trying to get you motivated. But that doesn't mean you had to return the favor---people know me in there.
tread-mI can't see Goth using that kind of language! Its absurd....
beavisThe dudes that grab dumbells off the rack and start doing their curls right there a foot away from the rack, so if you wanted to say I don't know grab some bells that are on the shelf underneath where this fuckface got his baby rattles from you can't get them till he's done swaying back and forth rippin out 30 reps or so, asshole. Oh ya the assfaces with biker shorts and shaved legs acting like they are so important and training for the tour de france.. pussies.
Exactly dude, fcking jackasses haha. And I share a similar hatred towards the lance Armstrong wannabes to, after the gym when I drive home I make sure to pull extra close to them in my truck just because there wannabe friends look like tools in the gym
beavisfuck ya, fuck them fucking dickfaces.
cycoYEA THOSE FUCKIN BIKER SHORTS,AND TO MAKE IT WORST THERE ATTACHED TO LEGS THAT LOOK LIKE BROOM STICKS,LOL..I MEAN IF UR GONNA WEAR THOSE SHORTS ATLEAST HAVE SOME TOM PLATZ WHEELS.

tread-mI'm pretty level headed up and until I have a couple of fatty Mcfatsters holding up a machine standing around it talking about Martha Stewarts new cook book or the benefits of olive oil in there salad dressing....Try this, walk around to the cardio area and grab the medicine ball, bring it back around and round house throw it into one of their temples and ask the other one "bout finished up here ladies"? Damn I love it when that happens...I'm like Pope though, Women at the gym don't bother me in the least, motivates me even though I'm not a fan of gym wood. Just looks funny trying to lay on the bench especially. I'll usually hand the Big Dog a fifty pounder so he looks busy. You should see him drink his protein shake from a straw after the workout...cutest damn thing you've ever seen!
i dnt know if I can back u up on this one tread, that damn martha stewart has some pretty good recipes in her new book of 1000 secrets. ha ha ha, but for real you know damn well just as soon as sum fine ass bitches come in the gym ur lifting shit u aint got no business lifting. what really sucks is when ur havin trouble lifting it up the same bitches are the ones that walks over there to you to help get the bar off your neck lmmfao!!!!
tread-mLMAO>>>thats funny! I just kinda bite the inside of their leg when they do, only reason I had the bar on my neck to begin with!
28savage28you gotta go hard for the ladies...especially the ones eyeball fucking your every move in the giant mirror at the front, trying to be all discreet about wanting the dick in the worst way!
lmfao haha, god help the person I catch drinking a protein shake with a straw
AnonGyms make me roid rage by default even without gear. The best gym is the one at home no queues, no cockfights, no women which is the most important and also hygiene is always at your standard. Drawback is of course the lack of weight but you can always get creative. I agree with all your points though but you missed the women part they cheese me off in the gym, i cant live without them dont get me wrong but not in the gym they ruin my focus.
whan im in the gym they tend to make me push harder!!!! lol knowin good and well i couldnt lift them 25 lb dumbells normally but when they around damn it i find a way to get them up. ha ha ha
tread-mThats when you walk over to the rack and just yell...What the fuck, no 300 lbs dumbbells???? Fuck this place....any of you ladies wanna get out of here for a protein shake?
AnonThats how you pick up injuries mate, you shouldn't push harder to impress anyone you should do what your body allows you too. When i do cardio i dont mind them but you cant really do any weights when you have the gym stunner next to you.
not to mention if im benching, I can actually put weights on the bar
Yeah very true, I def will put in a good weight room in my house when I can afford to do so, but free weights are expensive.
And i also agree with the women part in the gym, thats why I prefer muscle head gyms where there is no cardio equipment, they ruin focus and are annoying as hell in there
AnonI invested on an olympic set, a bench and a dip/pull up station and have never looked back. If you think about it the money you pay every month at the gym you would have a whole gym created by now if you were training at home. Also less time waisting getting too and back from the gym
You got a point, I never thought of it that way.
Where did you get your weight setup at?
AnonI have everything on a 3m by 3m square area. I only move things arround when i do my back. As long as you get a good rope for weighted lifts you could propably workout your whole body with just the dip station. I also have that fake floor that you drop the weights at, two mirros opposing each other for form. But it all started from a pair of dumbells and a bench that has 13 different positions. Mind you i still use that bench 6 years later. Also tell me what gym you can work out with your shirt off?
But ofc like everything good in life there are drawbacks.
I'll seriously have to look into that, because your right you dont need alot of different equipment. just a good adjustable rack, bench, bar and a lot of plates and your gtg
and damn right walking around shirtless in the gym thats open 24/7 isnt to shabby
but i may have to occasionally make an appearance in a local gym to tear it up haha
AnonOr you can just hit the gym when you are juicing and you need the extra weight. If you get the equipment i mentioned with once a week going to a gym you can do your whole body. Only hard part is getting used to training at home same as when you first started in a gym.
yeah or to do legs or something, that's a good point to. The hardest part for me would be to not get distracted, I'll have to crank some music just to isolate myself
well thanks partner, there goes my world record lol
haha I'm not bashing the weight, just the annoyance of unnecessary grunting and moaning lol
im jk homie, i feel ya, at my gym we have this lil asian dude that is the the grunting powerhouse their lol. he make sure everyone knows hes there
tread-mWalk over to him next time and tell him if he doesn't start acting like a big girl Daddies gonna make him sit at the childrens table!
lmao do you go to the same gym as me? The same thing happends at my gym, little asian guy jumping up and down as he puts chalk on his hand for a 225 pound deadlift, with belt and lifting wraps and he'll do like 2 reps as he's grunting and drop that shit like 4 feet in the air just so everyone knows he's there lmao
how fucked up would it be if we were tlking bout the same guy lol....... the dude im talkin about is always at that fuckin deadlift station!!!!!!
That would be so fucked up dude haha
well ima let u know my gym closes at 12 tonight so ima have to go get it in b4 that jacked up mr. miagi tears everything up.
