[QUOTE=swooshie;828191701]I had a long day at work so I had to cut my gym time short (not cool, work!) It was chest/tri day, so I just did triceps. Plus the gym was crazy packed. Have any of you noticed gangs of people working out together?? I don't mean someone with a lifting partner, I mean like a herd all clumped together hovering around the bench press, or whatever. What is that about?
[/QUOTE]
Oh I had one of those a couple weeks ago. Their leader asked me how many sets I had left in the power rack, I said 7 since I needed it for a couple things and if I would've let that group jump in I would've had to wait 3 months to complete my workout, lol.
[QUOTE=norinicole;828328531]
WTF is up with that locker?[/QUOTE]
Probably someone on a cut AND a deload, just sayin'. :p
[QUOTE=swooshie;828374671]Ha! Pushups in the squat rack!! That's a first! Yeah, some dude in my gym was doing pullups in the squat rack last night. :rolleyes:
[/QUOTE]
I hate that the top bars atract the pull up crew, why can't the gym just install spikes on those cross bars? lol

Really?? No diet Mountain Dew, huh?? Yeah, I've been screwed a few times by Canada myself
So here's a funny story....I drove up to Vancouver BC this past fall and it took forever to cross customs into Canada from the US. All of these questions "What are you doing here?" "When are you returning?" "Are you transporting any weapons?" blahblahblah. On my way home, I ate an apple and the core was sitting in my front seat when I drove through customs. I stopped at the booth and the US agent asked me one question "Are you bringing any fruit back into the country?" (What????) I'm like "well, I have this apple core" and he says "OK, you can keep that. Have a good day." Boy, I've never felt safer in my life...........yikes

I'm not much of a girlie girl. I literally have one dress hanging in my closet. I don't walk, talk or dress foffie at all. I was a jock when it wasn't all that cool to be a girl that played sports. But sports taught me a lot of life lessons and a lot about myself. Sports made me a better person. When I look in the mirror at the gym I'm proud to see my messed up hair, my sweaty face, my muscles pumped up and my veins popping. The jock in me has never gone away.....and I'm really glad. She's one of the best things about me :)

That jock post alone is almost worth repping.
Me, I'm just a huge nerd. And that part has never gone away. I may find a way to incorporate a pocket protector with my singlet.

I go to the gym at 5:30am.
Yesterday one of my (newer) buddies says to me "So why did you fix your hair if you were just going to put it in a ponytail?".
bertstare
"your hair? it was down and fixed earlier..."
bert. stare.
Ummm...I got out of bed and brushed it.
"Oh. Well it looked good. "
Then I went off...lol. Just started spouting that I was offended that he thought I "got ready" to come in there...there wasn't that much "meat" to look at and try and look all done up for anyway(which offended his punk ass)...and if I ever have make-up on it's because I passed out before washing my face...I wasn't one of those crazy ladies that go in with full face make-up and my hair flat-ironed...
I think he was sorry he said anything. lulz

Boys :rolleyes: I admire your early a.m. workouts. I use to workout at 5:30 a.m. for some unknown reason, but my lifts weren't nearly as good as they are after a day of da foodz plus swoosh's butt doesn't like to get up early.
Your back really is shredded!

LOL, I thought I had the wrong contacts in! It's really cool to see people who aren't all in their 20s and 30s making such progress and sporting such jacked avi's. SRS, I hope I am healthy and motivated enough to continue with sports for many years to come like that. I am always amazed what poor shape some of my friends are in who are only like 30, good diet and exercise ftw!

Thanks, Hammie!
It really is great. My old hottie trainer use to tell me that he had clients that would point out my back in the gym and say "I want a back like that!" then I would turn around and they'd do this...... :eek: Haha! My back/your head :)

I think pull-up handles in the middle of the cable machine is a stupid idea. They have those in my gym too, but if someone is pull-upin no one can be cable-un idontthinkgymdesignersactuallyworkout.jpg

I do too, however, if it keeps them out of my rack .. then go for it guys! Most of the guys at my gym are quick about it, they know the rules. And nobody messes around w/ stupid crap in the rack. I think some of the trainers have come down on them.

[/QUOTE]
It IS a stupid idea. Those of us who are 5'6" need to bring one of those box steps over just to get up there, lulz, embarassing as hell. I take over one of the assisted pull up stations and get rid of the assistance pad thing so I can do regular pullups. I'm sure it pisses off the people who need the assisted thing, but whatever, I have no control over my t-rex arms.
