What makes you laugh at the gym?

[LiveStrongMona]

OK... took this video a few months back. It was so cliche, I just had to. This was just a snip, but it lasted about 20 minutes.

I missed it...what exactly happened.

Edit: Oh Curling in the rack. For some reason I was waiting for the lady to do something funny/crazy.

Nice try Mona, you probably curl in the squat rack too.

My fav is when a sloot runs on the treadmill in booty shorts, with her butt cheeks hanging out. The sloot isn't what makes me giggle cause i dont have a lot of respect for girls that come to the gym to "put on a show" and not put in any real work. But I love watching all the guys try to come up with reasons to wander behind her, or even better are the ones the dgaf and stand directly behind and don't even blink. Some men are such easily distracted, simple creatures sometimes haha.

LOL'd

WTF did I just watch.

[Jayellpei]

There was a guy at my gym using ALDI catalogues as grip pads while drinking out of a big juice bottle.. Slowly breaking his back while attempting biceps .. that was pretty lolsey

[LiveStrongMona]

Absolutely. There aren't enough internet memes in the world to keep me away from curling in the squat rack.

[BrotherWolf]

People working out in jeans and sandals.

why what's wrong with that ?

I always workout in jeans and sandals .. got a problem ?

[BrotherWolf]

How is it that the last 2 threads I started turn into the "old naked balls" thread? Wtf?!

they always turn Into that , it's not you don't worry

dat avi...

[mydawgs]

The guy that is using grips for 25 lb DBs.....wut?

[texaschik]

Yeah but the classes are women only and the instructors are women and they do warn you that it happens, mostly to beginners or anyone not paying attention. It's still embarrassing though and everybody laughs cause really what else can you do.

It just happens sometimes when you mix the pelvic floor exercises with ab exercises.

Good thing they are women-only classes. :O

[Keltron]

My penis in the locker room mirror...


























But not because it's small but because it actually tells jokes.

[Big_Sky_Guy]

It was always fun at our previous gym to see the older folk come in rocking the 80's.

Current gym has a great ownership group that has hired good trainers. They are producing some great lifters and thus very little sillyness...other than the men tripping over themselves to check out the ladies. We have a few exhibitionists...shorty shorts and no undies doing SLDL...not much left to the imagination. Ohh, how the boys flock, and trip, and bump into equipment!

[Wtuttle]

Sooooo many funny things ITT, you guys certainly don't disappoint!!!

[izzygrant]

Oh, where to start.... tonight was shadow-boxing between sets night (compliments of the fight on TV earlier, I presume) so lots of lullz had.

Saw a four-plate barbell set up on the oly platform and was excited to witness who was going to try to pull that one off... two guys lined up together and tandem deadlifted! Google tells me this is indeed a thing but I had never seen it so it was pretty entertaining.

There's also a girl who comes in, turns on the treadmill, runs for about 20 seconds, jumps off (leaving the treadmill running), throws herself on the floor and flings her torso up and down in a momentum-driven version of what looks intended to be sit-ups, jumps up, goes across the gym to get water (treadmill still going), comes back about three minutes later, rinse and repeat.

Tai chi (?) guy who punches the air and waves his arms while running. Good luck if the only treadmill left is next to him.

The two small guys whose routine is: preacher curl-barbell curl-dumbell curl erry day, and who treat all curling as a team sport. Brb 90-lb preacher curl when they probably don't even weigh that much - each gets more work when it's his turn spotting than curling. And they wear skinny jeans. Skinny. jeans.

Then there is the girl who comes in only at peak hours, wearing a white spandex backless, low-cut one-piece jumpsuit with flowers on it, and her ass is is not the one she was born with if you nomsaiyan. She does things like v-sits on the seated calf raise machine and bent row-pulldown-? things using the tri pulldown. I wish I was making any part of this up.

[GMan35]

Honestly, I dont really see too much stuff....I guess I'm drawn too much into my workout? Not trying to come off as 'hardcore' either lol....but I really don't pay attention to others once im in gym.

[Joog]

There's these 6 kids that workout at my gym....18-20year olds.
In 2 years, I haven't seen them do any leg work, only chest, back, bi's and tri's...
Usually ********ing/texting/talking on the phone while hogging machines.
Benching 100kg's, with 3 spotters, holding the bar...all the way up...and all the way down.

[Time2bringitout]

fuuuuaarrkkkk, you ladies notice that crap? lol...

[melodyjayne]

Alright FMiscers... I want to know what will make you giggle to yourself while you're at the gym. No being mean, just good, honest, humor.

I'll start: People that run awkwardly. The track is adjacent to the heavy weights, squat racks, etc. at my gym. So while I'm resting I people watch. And man, some people have the goofiest running style! I'm sure I do too, but I encourage people to laugh at me as well! There was a girl today that, no joke, looked like she was running from zombies. Flailing about, boobs flapping, arms flapping... it was hilarious. Almost dangerously hilarious, since I was doing squats and needed to concentrate!

LOL, please don't say that...I have to do positive talk to myself as I run, am sure I look fully retarded..I will think of your post next time on the treadmill..goodbye confidence ; )

[melodyjayne]

Theres a really tall girl, maybe 6ft, who gets on the crosstrainer and is double jointed in her knees. Its like her legs are rubber bands.

[CaliSun]

fuuuuaarrkkkk, you ladies notice that crap? lol...

yeah, you boys get sloppy. not even the slightest bit sly.

[levijay]

haha aldi catalogues.. seriously.. i would have even used the paper towels you use to wipe the machines down for grips lol


I laugh when someone stops their workout to watch me do my set.. also rustles my jimmies when they do it for EVERY FRICKEN EXERCISE I DO

[Wtuttle]

I think it'd be hard to run the way she did! I bet the treadmill would have done her some good... All hands and arms inside at all times!

[liquorisquicker]

When I see people doing stupid things, it usually makes me frustrated or worried that they'll hurt themselves rather than merely amused.

That said, I'm probably the source of others' laughter much of the time.

I know how stupid hanging wipers look, but they're great (and admittedly, pretty fun). It's even better when my phone - which I use to listen to music - falls out during said wipers, and clatters to the floor. Battery door pops off, battery comes flying out, **** is just everywhere, man. I say "**** it" and finish up my set, then pick up the pieces of my blackberry as everyone watches me.

My gym is part of a racquet club, so weight lifting takes a back seat to other sports. Being one of the few people that lifts heavy, I'm sure the other members find my grunting to be somewhere in between amusing and annoying.

I honestly think it is the most hilarious thing in the world when women wear white to the gym. Especially white spandex shorts with no underwear while they are all sweaty and doing scissor kicks on the floor mat. So... effing.. funny. And I know I shouldn't laugh, and I should probably tell them the entire gym can see their chocolate starfish. But it is so entertaining that I can't. My favourite thing to do at a time like that is watch the rest of the people in the gym and wait for them to notice.

[V.I.C]

There is this out of shape guy in my gym who walks around in short short and vest and acts like he has a phenomenal physique. He goes around telling people how to train (even though their form, physiques and training is much much better than his) and even tries to PT one of his friends by making up random exercises. BRB superman curls with dumbbells (instead of cables) then straight into one leg hopping on the spot.

^^ This is the case for me with about 3/4 of the people in my gym who attempt to use the kettlebells. It terrifies me every time I see some obvious newbie walking up to those things now.

[BrotherWolf]

there's a guy at my gym doing exactly this, looks more ridiculous because he weights 300lbs and wears a head band
