    Question People you just CANNOT Understand

    Everyone has their own likes and dislikes in life and fitness is no exception.

    With regards to exercise only (excluding diet, sedentary, etc.)

    Who are those people with fitness habits you just CANNOT understand?

    I really just cannot understand some runners. The runners that either run in circles around the same track/lake at the same pace during the same times on the same days puzzle me a lot, not to mention anyone who runs/walks on treadmills...

    I like running/jogging but could never run around a track, lake, and especially on a treadmill..

    The people who train a particular body part on a particular day, like Monday is always back day for instance, if they miss working out on Monday, they won't make up the back work out on Wednesday. Instead they'll go right to the chest workout, cause Wed is chest day.

    I honestly cant understand distance runners. I mean goddam, how good can running 26 miles really be for you??? Not to mention the sometimes 100 mile weeks. I would think my knees/feet/back, would be permafuc*ed from doing this. I run for 30 minutes a day and have issues with my feet...

    I also don't understand powerlifters who have no concearn for aesthetics. Hey, I like to be strong too...but not if it makes me look like a fat downs kid.

    Emo kids in the gym. Every Monday night I get to the gym around 6, and I see a couple emo kids with WEIRD ASS "Flock of seagulls" style hair and 13 year old girl bodies doing curls with 5lbs. One even comes in with his emo/goth girl and they work out together. I am not sure if I wanna kill them as a favor or become one of them and slit my own wrists just so I don't have to look at them anymore.

    I personally LOVE doing cardio on a machine... I tend to just zone out and really hit my cardio well compared to all the distractions outside.

    I understand, but hate, people who do their 1RM all the time. I get that they want to look tough in the gym, but its so pointless!

    I love running to, just not around a lake, track, in a park, on a treadmill, in the woods, or on the streets. Really any running on the ground or a treadmill is no good for me.

    I cannot understand guys that can't do one single exercise in correct form (bouncing bar off chest during bench press, doing behind-the-neck overhead presses, using super momentum during lat pulldowns), yet they are jacked up and buff as shiit...like, wtf? Imagine somebody like me telling them what they're doing is wrong....they'd literally LOL.
    I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying.
    I'm not out there sweating for three hours every day just to find out what it feels like to sweat.

    I run somewhere! When some people drive 1 mile to the grocery store, etc. I would run.

    Running on a treadmill is like a lab rat and running around in circles is like a dog trying to catch it's tail.

    I think the idea of going nowhere is why i "just CANNOT understand" most runners

    Personal trainers and strength and conditioning coaches who have to post on forums or google search to figure out what to do with a woman client, or someone obese, or someone with scoliosis, etc.

    It's like a chef having to look up a recipe for white sauce. Who gave them their certificates, why does anyone pay them to do their job and why do the trainers think they deserve that pay?

    I just cannot understand it.

    When i see a 150 pound guy load 3 plates on the bench and have his spotter curl the bar while he benches. Then gets up and looks around to see who is looking at him like he did something awesome.

    I also don't understand powerlifters who have no concearn for aesthetics. Hey, I like to be strong too...but not if it makes me look like a fat downs kid.
    HEY, about the powerlifters comment, pretty lame man.. putting down certain challenged group of people is vey stupid. and not all is fat, but main focus is to get strong and actually compound lifts is more related to real life situations than the 'isolation' stuff!
    Better to be strong than just look it

    I know that a LOT of powerlifters look GREAT. But there are some that just look like fat blobs. And my downs comment was a joke, sorry if it offended. Guess I should have said retard.

    It's just opinions man,

    For example I cannot understand people that run around in circles or run nowhere on a treadmill but it doesn't mean that they don't have a reason they like it....

    Some people may think this is just some fat dude powerlifting who doesn't care about not looking in shape, but I think it's badass

    Okay, I know endurance runners go into a meditative state - hence the zone/trance out comments above - but what do you think about?

    Bunnies?

    During T&F I was more of a sprinter, though when I filled in for distance runs I found it tedious. I made great time simply because I wanted to get it over with.

    But onto what I don't understand, are these guys who require four or more buddies to spot and cheer him through an exercise. Then the group insists on rotating each fella through the same movement. Not only do these circle jerks tie up equipment, I cannot see how a person can get an effective workout when they have to wait fifteen minutes between sets.
    Hums the theme to Superman during planks and LYTPs. Now that you've read this, you will too.

    All right boys, now watch how this is done. The key is to put it all in your groin and your back.
    Take your legs totally out of the equation. Lift with your lower back in a jerking, twisting motion.

    Can't stand that group either.....takes them an hour to do one exercise and you definately can't work in with them either unless you want to wait 30 minutes inbetween sets

    I just cannot understand it.
    I can understand that if they haven't got much experience. And you can't blame a trainer for the course they chose, you only realize half way through if it's crap, and by then you've payed the money.

    I can't understand guys who don't workout legs. Buff legs look waaayyy better than chicken legs, and "working out legs will stunt growth"... ugh.

    At least do plyometrics?

    Also, overweight people who tell me they think cardio will help them lose weight more than "my training" (heavy weights, cardio, plyometrics etc.)

    EDIT: overweight people are randoms at gym, not clients

    Schooling is only the beginning of your education. If you're genuinely interested in the topic, you'll do reading and research beyond the course itself.

    I can't understand people who get into careers they've no real interest in.
