I hate these gym know it alls that dont know squat! At the gym at 2am by myself and dude comes in during my 2nd set of deads, he starts rowing on a machine with like 120lbs grunting and shit like hes training for the Olympia then grabs A 25lb dumbell for some tricep extensions and grunts some more. I dont have a set order of exercises after my main mass builder so I went from deads to pullups (no added weight) then grabed some dumbells to do rows (better than barbell to me)at which point the guy is like "Dude what are your goals" all out of the blue and shit. Why is this dude interupting me,Im here at 2am to avoid this shit but here we go, im like "huh" and he asks me "what are you trying to accomplish" and starts going into this bs about Im going to "tear the muscles" or some shit and that i shouldnt do so much. Im confused at what the hell he means by doing to much so I just said "Dude this is just my 3rd exercise, after this Ill do machine rows and dumbell shrugs and im out". Dude starts talking again, im heated now cause hes ruining what was a good workout, I interupt like "Dude, Im 3 semesters away from a degree in exercise science and physiology, I know a little bit about whats going on, your personal trainer told you some bull." Now normally I wouldnt pull that card, Im a high school dropout that went back to college at 29, but i was smarter than half the people with degrees that I knew even though I only had a GED so I know college dont mean shit BUT I needed dude to leave me the hell alone and you would think that would do it. Nope, didnt do it. Dude looks at me and says "Thats cool but Im in the Army", as if that were some serious credentials. Now Im not quite as mad cause that shit was funny as hell right, but i hold my laugh. I asked where he was stationed and he's like "Nowhere, I havent gone to basic training yet". WTF!! Now i actually do laugh!! He gets all upset and starts talking some crap about his brother being an Army instructer and giving him a routine but at that point i just acted like he wasnt there, literally. Turned my back to his punkass and continued with my rows. Heard him say "alright dude" and walk off. I saw what he was lifting and he obviously was watching my shit too, dude was like 30lbs heavier, 10 years younger and lifting shit and with awful form. Had to use a damn machine for pullups and left after only 3 exercises, grunting like an olympic powerlifter the whole time. How the hell are you giving advice to a dude thats smaller than you, stronger than you, and actually has been in school 3yrs studying the shit? Sometimes I wish I were still young and crazy, i woulda just slaped his redneck ass.
