+ 13 Gym etiquette : My list of four.

ad

Gym Etiquette : My list of four, feel free to add to or take away . This is kind of a rant in the first place.

  1. Wash your nasty ass gym clothes everyday or change them, never wear the same clothes with out washing them , that is just fucking gross your mom failed to teach you personal hygiene, do not make us all suffer because of it.

  2. Clean the equipment when you finish with it, especially if there is visible sweat on the equipment it takes 10-15 seconds just do it. I do not care if your a sexy 10 in yoga pants, I am not licking your sweat up , well maybe...

  3. When you are finished with the equipment, take your plates off, for the love of god I have a certain momentum
    I like to work at and you are messing with my groove.

  4. Last and most importantly get your fucking ass up when you finish a set, do not rest in between sets on the equipment, other people are working around you be considerate. God forbid you are taking selfies or using your phone in between sets on a piece of equipment, I may go to prison for attempted murder the next time someone pulls that shit, If I ever cycle tren I will be getting a lawyer ahead of time.

My rant if I may add to this:
People who do planks right in front of the heaviest portion of the dumbbell rack. 130-150lb section.
People who walk around the gym as if they're carrying rolls of carpet under their arms who weigh less than 160lbs
People who can't rep 225 on bench telling me how to best work my chest. Dude I have a 1rm max of 435 so gtfoh
I had 4 plates on the bench press not to long ago and I was checking the collars on it when some tall skinny guy with headphones sat down on my bench looking at his phone totally oblivious. I got in front of him and asked him if he needed a lift off.

Sho nuff press. This dude is bragging bout being 173lbs But...he’s come a long way since he’s started and has some good legs. (No homo) only thing is he wears those short shorts like we used to wear in gym class.

Lmao. Nah I’ll stick with my Wife as my traing partner. People almost get crazy when the see her spotting me on a 400lb + bench. They’re like man I can spot you. I’m tell her thanks man but she can get me. Best thing I like is on heavy dumbbell bench press she can un-rack and re-rack the 150’s for me.

Hey sorry about taking your bench bro, but I needed to check fb n get a couple selfies to show how swole I am......
I workout at 4 am so the gym is mostly empty but, there r two women that are there doing murph workouts in the weight room...there are other rooms just for that but for some reason they have to be in there messing up my routine.....maybe they just like old bald guys but I believe they r just clueless...

I've actually seen a well known Pro MMA fighter doing that in the states in a gym I was training in years ago - Didn't dare say anything though ...

So many people are so clueless and inconsiderate of others in the gym. It drives me crazy! Guys who leave eight plates on each side of the leg press as thought we are the plate janitors for them. Very sad, very sad!

I have gotten in the faces of some of these dudes. Then the give you the dumb look; like I didn't realize! Yeah sure!

Put the dumbbells back on the rack I hate people leaving them all over the place

herpjunkie111's picture

I was putting some DB's back on the rack the other day and someone had just half-assed dropped a 100 back on without securing the end over the lip and it slipped off and landed maybe 2 inches from my foot, scared the hell outta me then I was pissed.

So secure the dumbbells on angled racks so nobody's foot gets crushed.

Fuck there is one guy at my gym I see him grab like 10 different lbs and just leave them on the ground all over I almost snapped the other day at him. But also people that leave the 100lb plates on the leg press bug me I always take them off cause old people workout there also you know fuck grandma needs help sometimes

Last night was the first time I worked out in the evening at the new gym we joined and it was fairly busy. It has been at least two years since i lifted with that many people around and number 4 about drove me insane.

The texters drive me crazy.Just sitting on Facebook or texting in between sets.Ten minutes between sets gets me ready to kill!!!

At the gym I go to there’s kinda an unspoken rule where if u leave the equipment for just a second u won’t get it back. Drives me crazy. If u need a bench press or even a bench u have to stand there and babysit until someone is done. I’ve waited 30 mins before. I’ve never seen anyone ask to work in only stand and wait til someone’s done. Makes a workout twice as long
