Hey gym guy (1 Viewer)

[gary mexico]

DUDE, you sound like an 80's pornstar about to climax all over the calf raise machine. WTF is wrong with you???

And for crying out loud, QUIT drying off your SACK with your leg propped up on the sink. :X You're lucky I don't haul off and kick you right in the balls, jerk. At what point in your life did things go so wrong that it seemed ok to DO THIS? You're a pathetic and disgusting human being.

[Sammy Traveller]

gary mexico, think hard before going this route. because if you do, this is not going to end well.

 

[Tom Servo]

If this were Maria Sharapova doing this, would you be offended?

 

[Masked Vigilante]

How big are his calves?

Please don't let this be a verb.

sometimes when i strain during squats i poop a little.

 

[Sheriff66]

Maybe you're not working hard enough, try lifting more than the 2lb. dumbbells, Nancy.

 

[Chaka]

Stop staring at his balls.

 

[Jackstraw]

Gym guy. Its room temperature in here. I think you can do away with the stocking cap.

 

[GroveDiesel]

COME ON MACK DADDY!!! YEAHHHHHHHH!!!!!

 

[Jackstraw]

Gym guy. I don't think your chest is supposed to be a trampoline. You might want to bench something you can control.

My favorite gym guy is the one I call "Archie".He is benching so much weight that his back is curving away from the bench creating a nice arch between his upper and lower back. Injure your back much? Also, what's with the gallon water jug? Can't be bothered to refill?

 

[Wyld Stallyns]

You seem to be paying a lot of attention to the guys at your gym. Anyone else catch your eye besides the grunter and the ball-dryer?

Don't get me started on gym guy that stands nude at the sink shaving.

I see this in Florida, no less.Guess what dude. You live in Florida. You should not even own a hat that covers your ears!!

My other pet peeve at the gym...dude who works out in flip flops. Seriously. How hard of a work out are you doing where you can wear flip flops while you do it?

It's a lot safer to do deadlifts in flip flops than while wearing your standard tennis/bball shoes.Ideally one should do deadlifts while wearing no shoes.

Not sure where you're getting this info from. I've seen tons of pics of powerlifters doing deadlifts and they wear boots or cross-training sneakers.

I know. I wear sneakers too while doing deadlifts. It's actually safer, however, to do deadlifts barefoot.

Because flip flops don't have the cushion that other shoes have. Minimizes the chance of injuring yourself. That's why barefoot is the safest.

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

I squat and do deadlifts barefoot.

 

[the hairy scotsman]

How 'bout gym guy who throws his weights down so hard you can hear 'em anywhere throught the entire building in a Lifetime Fitness. No exaggeration.

 

[z14jcb]

Got a guy at my office Gym who blow drys his balls with the community hair dryer. What a #### face this dude is! Yes, I use my peripheral vision ya homos. But seriously, it truly pisses me off that the silly #### just doesnt get it. I can only assume he is a close talker as well. Which reminds me that I need to start that thread.

 

[gary mexico]

And all guys who shave their legs are QUEERS. You should all have your balls cut off

 

[bentley]

Hey hot girl at the gym in compression shorts and a sports bra bending over and doing curls.....keep up the good work.

so right.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Morons who don't have the common courtesy to wipe their sweat off a machine they just used really grind my gears. I can usually just roll my eyes and move on about stupid crap I see people doing at the gym, but that is pretty annoying.

Why are you using your peripheral vision to stare at his balls? Just own up and give those bad boys a good two minutes of full on radar lock. If he asks what you are doing just say you are considering blow drying your balls too and are looking for pointers.Or you could just stop staring at his balls (peripherally or otherwise).

Fat middle aged couple>First off, you're not even a man if you work out with your wife, letting her spot you. Secondly, matching headbands went out in the 80's you tools.

Arnold knows thingsChuck Taylors are the best sneakers to lift in for squats/deadlifts, completely flat bottoms. A lot of people don't have great ankle flexibility, or want to target their quads and the raised heel helps with that, but it puts more stress on the knee joint.

I would have guessed that you wanted some protection on top of your feet/toes in case a weight dropped.

Deadlifts/Squats have the weight a couple feet out on either side. The bar isn't going to hurt your feet. Also.. how much help is 1/16" of cloth going to help when a couple hundred pounds comes crashing down on it?

My gym has a big alarm on the wall and red siren. It's called the "Lunk Alarm" and the peopel working behind the desk will turn it on if someone is grunting or dropping weights. It actually works as a deterrent. The gym has plenty of "strongmen" types but outside of the overhead music, its a pretty quiet place (thankfully).

That's Planet Fitness, right?

Actually, this is the correct way to bench press. As long as your butt and both shoulders stay firm against the bench and your feet are flat on the ground, you should bend your back some. Watch a power lifter bench.

This might be true but I'm not very confident in how much a power lifter actually knows about kinesiology.

 

[Statcruncher]

That's like telling driver's education students to watch top fuel dragsters to learn how to drive.So this guy (no arch and feet not flat on the gound) is doing wrong?

Meh, the grunting doesn't bother.

Pretty much the only pet peeve I have right now at the gym is the old guy (just always seems to be an old dude) who comes into the steam room with a gallon of cold water. Why? Because apparently the standard steam every few minutes to keep a nice relaxing sweat going at like 120 degrees just doesn't cut it for him. He's gotta dump so much cold water on the internal temp that it thinks it is 32 degrees in the room and has to furiously pump out steam for the next ten minutes and make it a deathly fog. My favorite part though: when everyone else inside finally can't stand being unable to see, unable to have a conversation, and feel like they are about to die and have to stumble out of the room, where is mr. cold water? Long gone as he is always the first one out. #### you, #######.

I'd have raced to whichever cardio machine had the best rear view of that. Good Lord.

Other than the girly weights on the end of the bar, he seems to be doing it right.

That's awesome. What's the name of your gym?
