What pisses you off at the Gym?

**indafastlane67** · 06-07-2007, 08:13 PM

Just saw that what makes you laugh thread and i had to make this one:
As for me it follows:

1.Guys who will be on the same machine the whole time you are there when you want to use it.
2.People who stare at you waiting to use what you are using
3.Really old and really young peple.

One time I loaded all the plates on the side of the barbell for shrugs and went to go get a drink, had all my stuff by it, belt, straps, chalk etc. and turned around, and a guy was on it... after he watched me load the plates

-They big older dudes that take my EZbar from me in the middle of my Curls and don't give it back
-Our rival football players from a neighboring town that show up to our local gym with their PURPLE letterman jackets
-The big guys(with no courtesy) that walk away from their bench or squat rack when they're done, but don't bother to take the 405lbs off

**PumpingSteel** · 06-07-2007, 08:27 PM

when people rack 3 45's on the bar and do 3 inch squat.
oh this one time, these 3 guys from my football team racked like 5 45's on smith machine and pretended like they were squatting it

**chris2489** · 06-07-2007, 08:27 PM

Guys curling in the squat racks when I want to do squats.

Why does that piss you off? It's not affecting your workout.

agree!!!!! watched a kid put on 455 sit down his friend wrapped his kness for him because apparently he couldnt do it tight enough himself for such an amazing weight!! then proceeded to make a show of squatting 3 inches no where even near a 45degree angle let alone parallel to the floor..... *******....

The heat or the cold. Havent installed airconditioning yet and should install more heaters but use the room for equipment. The dilemas of having your own gym lol!

Cheers

well it pisses me off because its hard to watch. I guess it doesn't piss you off when you see something you really hate, since it doesn't effect your workout.
just becuase its not "effecting" my workout it doesn't mean it bothers me in the gym.

at my old gym i could not stand all the ****ing nasty ass old people who had like a workout club and they would all stand around drinking coffie and just sitting around. Also really young kids who come in there in tanktops and do stuipd **** thats not right at all.

**Serjin** · 06-07-2007, 08:40 PM

**D-Line78** · 06-07-2007, 08:42 PM

My friends coming up to me and start talking when I'm in the middle of a set.

**JavierJ** · 06-07-2007, 08:48 PM

**Ascendancy** · 06-07-2007, 08:52 PM

I also am annoyed when I load up the bar with weight and someone comes and takes some off.

Why the hell are some of you posting **** about how you hate younger people? You're god damn teens, you ARE young. I guess you hate yourselves too than?

people tend to hate people that remind them of things they don't like about themselves.

when they say young...pretty sure they mean like 10 year olds or 12 year olds running around. We're teens, but we aint no kids..You'd get pissed off if you probably saw like five 10 year olds runnin around takin space.

Well I would expect a 16 yearold to lift at a school gym. If you're at your school gym and you have 10 years running around in it, you either better a) make sure your in the right place b) learn to pass school.

I doubt you're going to see five 10 yearold kids running around the local YMCA's weight room also.

I don't lift @ my school gym. and I was just saying that as an example for the above posters who said they hate young people at teh gym...I myself rarely see any kids running around at my public gym.

But yes, I've seen 10 year olds unattended at my gym from time to time.

Also, why would you expect a 16 year old to lift at a school gym? My school gym sucks bro, I lift at a public gym which has more equipment...makes sense no?

Well for most 16 year olds they don't have jobs to pay for a gym. So unless they have rich parents their not going to really be able to afford a gym.

3 years ago when I was 16, there was NO gym around here for a person that was under 18 to sign upto. My school gym was extremely ****ty too, but hell all you really need is a bench press, a squat rack, and a barbell with alot of weight. Getting fancy with a billion different machines to work xxx body part at a xxx angle and xxx longitude with this type of pulley really doesnt beat the basic free weights.

Yah...well... maybe you're right. It's only $4.55 for drop in and I'm too poor to afford a membership. Maybe i'll take your advice and start lifting at my ****hole school gym. (No joke, but everything is falling apart..and i've even suggested to start a fundraiser to get better equipment) oh well.

P.S by the summer, i'll be working so I'll probably spend some $$ for a membership at the public gym...since..well...where else will I be able to workout right?

**naneerGynnhoJ** · 06-07-2007, 09:46 PM

People who think they are strong because they can bench alot of weight, when in reality it is over 100 pounds less than they weigh.

Some 280 pound kid at school brags and thinks hes hot **** because he can do 225 and i want to kick him in the head every time he talks.
