+ 9 So who else is dreading NEWB WEEK 2023 at the gym next Monday???

ad

Every year, it’s the same ole shit at my gym. All the New Years Resolutioners will be flocking my gym with their inexperienced nonsense. I’m all for the people taking it seriously, and willing to lend a hand in helping them use the machines, spotting, etc. just not looking forward to all the bench occupying, text messaging, Instagraming dumb asses who won’t be there by the 3rd week of January. SMH!

My New Year Resolution will be arriving at the gym by 5am every morning for the first month to not have to deal with this bullshit once again. Maybe I can just keep it going for the rest of the year.

The most ridiculous is when some one has got a camera phone on a tripod set up next to you working out
I don't want to be on someone's online social media account. It kind of pissis me off.

I understand. You know out of all the times I've been in the gym last week was the first time I even saw one of those tripod set ups being used by a guy. Weird part about it was when it wasn't recording during sets he wasn't breathing very hard but when he turned recording back on you would of thought he just ran a damn marathon with all the hard breathing. He used same weight the whole time, the weight was easy when he wasn't recording..straight fraud! Belongs in Hollywood

I’m all for people trying to better themselves. When I say Newbs, I actually mean the new faces who just take up space and equipment. I’m the first to help anyone who’s struggling with anything at the gym. I just hate waiting for equipment being occupied by the texters, facebookers, and Instagramers. Just work out and get off the bench!!!

I totally understand. I'm right there with ya man, hell any serious lifter should be. We mean business, they wanna be sociable. Merry Christmas man.

Nice post Jake. Glad I won't be on cycle for this upcoming gym stampede lol.

JakeKO's picture

I hear that. Happy I’m off the Tren Train this year. DHB/Mast has me in a pretty good mood most of the time. Not so quick to get pissed off. Although, I think the 5am thing is my best bet, just hope I can keep it going.

DeeMan's picture

Glad u feeling good. Yea man I have some mast prop. Gotta put it to work. I'll definitely get more out of my good ole test with it! Just gotta keep the anti balding shampoo around

I couldn't put up with it - if I was training in a gym trying to focus on weights I have to hit and some arsehole was setting up a tripod near me about to video himself teaching people how to bench press for youtube I'd go and kick it over. Rumour has it the guy's with the broccoli haircuts are part of @HanginLow s click so you gotta choose who you pick on wisely Lmao

What is the deal with those Broccoli haircuts? Seems like every kid in my sons high school has it these days. I already warned him that I would shave the shit off in his sleep if he even thinks about it. You gotta see how stupid they look in headgear at his wrestling matches. Fking ridiculous! When I hear one of their parents cheering them on, I always feel like yelling “if he wins, get him a haircut !”

High white socks covering half the calves and a flannel just to do 1 rep max of a sumo deadlift.

Low definitely started something with the Broccoli haircut saying didn't he LMAO

SimonM84's picture

Yeah because I really couldn’t articulate what type of haircut I was seeing. It looked like IT or toad except with hair but when Low said broccoli stalk, I started using that phrase in my gum. That term is spreading like wild fire

With the little tight tennis shorts on - Oh and George Michael silver cross earrings .....

I’m still trying to find the catalyst

I've been a 5 am guy for over 10 years. I find it the best time to be there because only the people who are serious about what they are doing are crazy enough to be working out at 5.
Hopefully you can start at 5 and continue through the year

I switched to a 5 am person this past year and the biggest benefit i got from it is my sleep quality has increase dramatically. I dare say its the first time in my adult life that I'm getting a full nights sleep and feel great the next morning. I think its a combination of not raising my body temperature training at night, and the fact that i always get low angle sunlight in the mornings now.

JakeKO's picture

I’ve done the 5-5:30am thing this whole past week, and actually enjoyed it. Especially not having to worry about how busy my work day is going to be. I hate having a tough day and having to go to the gym at 6:30-7pm, and have to deal with waiting for equipment. I’m really going to try to keep this going.

Jayzgainz's picture

I find I have a much better day at work when I train in the am. I can't say that I know why but I always feel good after a workout and that seems to carry through the day.
