Barbell curls in the squat rack = Gym Idiot

plus i use the safety bars to press the barbell against it to put more stress on my bis at the peak.

The guy who does curls in the squat rack is officially a Gym Idiot. The guy who thinks you need a dedicated machine for every exercise isn't too far behind him, though.

I would have to say that the guy who wears real baggy pants into the gym to workout in, so as not to show that his massive upper body is carried by toothpicks. That my friend is the all time gym idiot.

That's funny, every gym has one. I like the term that Pavel Tsatsouline (sp?) from Muscle Media uses, he calls them "mullets". What a great term!
My favorite gym idiot story is myself. When I was in high school I played quarterback, and I would never do any Biceps because I was absolutely convinced that it would ruin my throwing arm. Instead I would hit triceps like crazy telling everyone I was going to add 10 yards to my throws over the summer. IDIOT!!!

You are a gym idiot if you go to the gym to Socialize and talk.
You are a gym idiot if you do not sweat after 45 minutes of working out (unless you are new and just starting out)
You are a gym idiot if you stare at that one hot chick in the tight white spandex pants with the red trim
and the small tank-top while she does lunges and.... wait err.... never mind.<3 <3 <3

My personal favorite gym idiot is "imaginary lat guy." We all know him. He parades about the gym with his pipe cleaner, 14 inch arms held out as if his lats were so massive as to force this condition to exist. Meanwhile, King Douchelips looks like Steve Urkel's skinnier cousin. Ooh...how intimidating he is as he glides past you at the drinking fountain. A hulking mass of skin and bones who possibly weighs in at 110 lbs. soaking wet.

Your officially a gym idiot if you "BOUNCE THE F@#$ING BARBELL OFF YOUR CHEST WHEN DOING BENCH PRESS!"
God I hate that...

We call that 'carrying buckets' down our way and it invariably the skinny dude whose been lifting for 1 month who does it. He needs a month to convince himself that his lats have exploded and keep rubbing against his tris.
