I will be heading to the gym tonight...and I cringe at the thought of the herd of clueless people who joined and will be starting their 1 month of working out tonight...Please use this thread to note humorous and frustrating events you happen to see in the next 4-8 weeks.

This thread should be 85 pages in no time.

I can see the long lines for equipment and free weights now. B/c my university gym is closed for the semester break I have to go to the YMCA...the free weight section is super small. Grr I can only imagine how crowded it will be tonight.

[sammylou]

hahaha I know exactly what your talking about. 24 hour fitness in Berkeley CA was filled with these idiots. It should taper off after about three weeks though.

yeah not looking forward to it plus my gym for the new year does the no enrollment fees for the month of January. Sucks!!!!!!!!!! I plan on leaving work earlier just to get a bench today

Im doing legs tonight on purpose...cause I know none of the new people will go near the leg press / squat rack

I MISSED OUT ON MY WORKOUT YESTERDAY DESPITE CALLING MY FIRST BACKUP GYM

I was so pissed to have called the fricken gym and double-check the website, show up and see no one there but the janitor. I just stood there in the piss pouring rain, hoped up on stims, just took my supplements and fired up to start my DC training routine. Janitor looked like a nice foreign guy… smiled at me… I just stood there for a bit, decided to drive to two other gyms just in case, and the Parks & Rec gym run by the city had just closed. I was so disappointed.

I’m anticipating a lot of newb asses at my gym today, but I don’t really mind as long as some cardio bunnies join. I kind of doubt it. I like how my gym is virtually empty but oh well. As long as it draws a few dedicated people or good looking ladies, that’s all I care about. Going to lift with an intense fury because of yesterday’s disappointment, so I’m sure no one will try talking to me anyways.

Lol, they only do chest and biceps.

[B-baldy]

Lol, they only do chest and biceps.

And with godawful form, shouldn't take long for them to pull something and disappear.

my gym was open the day after christmas, but not yesterday; they didn't even put up a sign to warn us.

i thought about going over to swat gym (the gym that bill kazmeier runs) since the door is always left open, but i didn't feel like driving all the way across town

If it weren’t for the rain I WOULD have driven to the next town over if I knew the gym was open… I was so disappointed to see that it was closed. I was anticipating that it’d be really busy and filled with new years bozo’s.

Ah well, I wonder if I’ll see the Chest & Bicep squadron at the gym today.

It's not always a bad thing. I normally get a few new females (good looking)at my gym every year asking about this that and the other.

[Outside backer]

I heard DVS will be joining the gym this year

nice plan... i think it will be deadlifting for me... too many people curling in the squat rack

[Sarge2]

Yay! MORE cell phones and Milky Way bars! (You DO know that they are the ultimate energy bar right? ) I hate the time right after the first of the year. At least there is sure to be some good laughs at the latest in gymwear (those baggy football pants) and a few outlandish mullets.

[eldawg]

Mine was pretty empty this afternoon.

[jweber]

[dvsness]

You'll blend right in, noob.

Cell phones drive me nuts. But mullets? Where do you live?

[Sarge2]

I like to take aminute between sets to catergorize them every once in a while. You've got the following prominent styles:
Mississippi mudflap
The Achy Breaky hair mistakey
Camaro cut
Soccer rocker
Shemullet
skullet
Ape Drape
Tennessee waterfall
Business in the front party in the back
Feel free to add any that I may have missed.

Let's just say it's redneckery heaven. Hey will you go out with me? j/k
No, I don't personally sport the hairstyle of the gods.

Yup, thats only upside of using my apartments gym. Nobody really uses it and I don't expect it too change much

Don't worry ski, it will be back to normal in a few weeks. It is kinda funny though.

I work part time at vitamin world. Man you should hear some of these people. They come in with hot dogs and milk shakes, and then ask what they should buy to get ripped for summer. Then I'll try to tell them diet and exercise are key. Their response: "Oh, well I don't really diet or exercise, so what can I take to replace it" or "Well I get the chicken sandwhich from McDonalds and I have to walk alot at work. Does that count?"

just cuz they don't squat doesn't mean they won't use the squat rack!

Squat rack is the main place for BB curls at my gym. meh.

my gym was rather empty today. it was nice.

[bongd]

I'm about to leave for the gym in 20 minutes... wish me luck.

*prays for cardio bunnies*

same here, surprised. i think a lot of companies had the day off, hence the major new years crowd starts tomorrow.

i am happy to report that one guy did dump the bar on the bench and i saw one other guy walk away from a bench to grab weights and had his bench taken from under him

Good luck...

I actually couldn't find a parking spot at my gym today, nor could I get a treadmill. I hate resolutionists...

[ab-swing asianbabe]

well at 7am in the morning the cardio machines are maxed, but the weights room is still nice and empty
