Gym bullies , my story
ad
Some big white guy was picking on a little old mexican man and I stood up for him, squared up in the middle of the gym and was ready to send this fucker to the hospital. It all happened when the old man went to use his station after the guy had left and other dude came back on a rage about to toss the old man across the room. Do you have similar stories to share?
Btw he said I don't have any problems and left lol.

HAL9000 is such a badass!! Did those big ole white guys have fanny packs? Because fanny packs means CHL!
cmonsterThere is only 1thing that pisses me off at the gym and that is when someone uses equipment and sweats all over it and doesn't clean it besides that everyone has the right to use anything they want but usally if iam on something they ask before the use it
As someone who was bullied for most of his life i will say it fucking sucks. That being said im not huge but if i see someone getting bullied i will step in. most of the time the bully backs down its why they pick on smaller people they dont have any balls to go get it done anywhere else. Being bullied is why i started lifting in the first place when i graduated high school i was 120 lbs. 12 years later i tip the scales at 207 i think ive done pretty well for myself. I look up to you big guys who actually arent dickheads and help out and give advice and step in for the little guy.
HAL9000same here, but at enter of sophomore year of high school I was 210
no usually i step to the use any machine,dumbbells or barbells people move away... my farts are deadly lol
most of the morons at gym are usually lousy lifters.. so there mouthy and like to
talk to there "buds".. i get stared at enough.. you get used to it. Me picking a fight
is not going to change that.. Altho. I almost got into it at a burger joint a week or so..
being 3+ bills and I tie my hair up with rubber bands in the back.. so that may have something to do with it..LOL !
I never have problems like that....im very scary at the gym ;)
btw that was very heroic of you ..
I once stabbed a guy in the throat with a weight pin for counting his reps out loud...some may from upon it
Sounds like some prison shit.. hellyeah!
Pure genius, uses for a weight pin #837... Jackpot!
I call this gym etiquette. It's about paying attention to what's going on around you. Having respect for others. So that way you don't get ass raped to death in the locker room by Jethro after your workout. Bottom line, we all know who the biggest guy in our gym is and if its not you then you probably shouldn't act like it is. Be safe and good luck
Has anyone had someone pull weight off your bar or rack that you were using before? Lol
No, but I did have a clown ask me last week, AS I WAS LIFTING IN THE MIDDLE OF A DUMBBELL SHOULDER PRESS SET, if I'd help him with his pyramid set of calf raises. (Where you as the spotter remove the weight so the lifter can keep going with his reps).
I think you MAY have already worked out what my reply to him was. :&
Hmm never had issues.. well one guy half my size kept mean mugging me and even bumping intome about a year ago.. I didn't understand why.. I mean straight up asking for a fight without saying it and I didn't know whether to laugh or actually back hand him .. but then I realized the girl eying me that day was his gf.. that's literally the only problem I've had in the gym.. every one is usually trying to help one another.. we've got a nice group of big guys that wouldn't let bullying shit happen.. well I do sincerely hate cross fitters.. we get them from time to time
56tooIf there's one kind of human trash I hate it's a bully. They truly rate up there with people who molest children and prey on old people.
Two young lads came to work out in the gym. I hadn't seen them there before and in between my sets I could see that they were new to iron because they didn't have the first clue as to what they were doing. But, everytime they worked out what a particular machine did, or watched somebody get off a machine, the smiles on their faces were a mile wide. They were lifting
30-40 minutes of watching these kids lift, again, with the same huge smiles on their faces, 3 other young lads walked in to the gym and the smiles VERY quickly disappeared. Their heads went down and they were desperately looking for a place to hide or were praying that the floor would open up and swallow them.
The 3 lads saw the other two, one of them made a comment to the others and the three of them made a bee-line for the now cowering lads.
As the three were making their way to them, I stood up, went over to where the 2 lads were PHYSICALLY shaking in fear, tapped them both on their shoulders and asked them, "Do me a favor, Gents? Spot me on these dumbbell presses over here, will you? Come on. It's not difficult". (The fear in their eyes was starting to run out of the sides).
I turned to the other 3, just as they got to where we were and told them, "It's alright. I don't need your help. I've seen the way you 3 ladies lift", and I just stood there, not having to say another word, but making my intentions VERY clear.
The 3 of them walked away, eying up the other two as I put my arms around their shoulders and escorted them over to where my mates and I were working out.
The end to the event resulted in the 3 lads being banned from the gym that evening for, 'Inappropriate behavior towards other members', and the other two have been going to the gym, everyday, (Except weekends), ever since.
56tooOnly wish thee were more people o this planet like you. Right on brother
Someone give this man a medal!
I thank you, Sir
You're a solid dude, no bullshit. That's one of the coolest things I've read in a long time.
Thank you.
When a simple look brings more results than a physical confrontation, victims of bullies see them for what they are. I did discover later that the 3 lads had been bullying these 2 boys since they were in junior high, so they obviously thought that they were going to continue in their favorite past time.
I don't know if I got a bigger buzz out of being thanked and told a few weeks later that the bullying had stopped, enjoying MY favorite pass time of bullying bullies, or seeing these 2 lads coming into the gym everyday and STILL smiling when they're lifting. (Makes me remember when I first started all those years ago) (LOL)
Dude the other day some douchebag was being a fucking prick to this girl. She was doing some glute exercise on the smith machine.
This piece of shit dude wanted to do benchpress on the smith machine. He looked like fat and had no muscle tone whatsoever. Anyways I was watching the girl she only did her first set on the smith machine and the guy walks up and asks "are you done yet?" she said no he says "well are you on your last set?" she said no I have 6 more sets. He walked away muttering fucking bitch in a lighter tone of voice loud enough so you can hear but quiet enough to not be too noticeable. Well I heard it and she did too. He then began to give her dirty looks and was talking to his buddy complaining about how the girl wouldnt get off the machine.
He actually had the nerve to ask her 2 sets later if he could use the machine because he is trying to get a good workout in. Lol
Boy is he lucky I'm not on tren right now I would have flipped out on that dude. So badly I wanted to tell him to piss off and I wanted to say hey maybe you should leave the smith machine for the girls because that's what it is for, maybe that's why you look like one with your lack of muscles..
But I didnt. poor girl shes just minding her business and some asshole has to mess with her.. I agree pisses me off when people fuck with other people especially women
