Gym Etiquette

Yeah 24hr suck so does anytime fitness. Im at a hard core gym now I love it there no ac and its 99% OUT SIDE. But I love it. Left the other gyms cause its all the same no one re racks. The weights. Old man going crazy on the cardio. Fat guy on the Abs machine that should be on the cardio machine. Machine hogs. And then you have the stalker that does all the same exsersize and weights but tries to do more. As fats as the honeys never minded to much. Lucky I dont have to deal with any of this at my new gym thank goodness!

I want to join this mythical gym..

EDIT: Wait... No AC? my ass would die!!!
 
Its hot. But you get use to it. Plus I keeps the metabolism going. They keep the warehouse Doors open. And fans blowing if you ever come to texas hit me up. Lol
 
This. I go to a hole in the wall gym though, everyone is pretty much there to push weight, minimal bullshit, so people are cool about spotting. But yeah, if I were trying to push it and got pinned I would have to find another gym. The shame... :D

I don't do heavy bench on my own at all when using a bar... only with dumbbells so I can dump that Shit without issues. I would honestly die if I got pinned!

boils my piss when weights are all over the place, i train at 6am, before anyone else gets to my gym, all the weights are in perfect order , makes it a very fluid workout. when ive done my reps i rack them.

i cant train in the evening, as i dont have the patience to play find the dumbbell...

And manny let me tell you my monday is going good... cheat day... beer, steak, bbq...

tomorrow morning i most likely won't be so rosey trying to drag my ass out of bed at 5am.

I agree playing find the dumbbells is as nerve racking as trying to get in my gf and she tells me she has a headache!! :) I go in in the early afternoon, no one's there really. If I try amd get in after 4 its fucking nuts!! Glad you're having a g9od cheat day, mine was fri nite!! Pizza!!! Have a good rest of your day man!!!
 
I used to go to the gym everyday at 10am and would always see this hot chick that was kinda thick but doable. She would always be working out hard and even had a nice sweaty camel toe at times. A couple months went by and I seen her at the gym last night. Bitch got fat. How the fuck do you go to the gym and get fatter? Very disappointed in her. Fact of the matter is, all fat chicks disappoint me, especially in the gym.
 
I can't stand #2. Similar but worse to me, is standing in front of and holding on to the dumbbell rack while doing db rows. Get the fuck back.

I sweat like crazy, so I'm pretty conscious about wiping shit down. So I always say something if some prick leaves a puddle on the bench.

Yea after my last cycle I've been alot more vocal too. I fucking hate sweat and hate when someone is standing in front of the db rack. I hate it when they curl directly in front of the rack. Its a daily occurrence at my gym.
 
Hey @Ozzy619 I take my gym bag with me cuz I'm the only one with a pair of 80lb weight chain but your right on also the newbs that think they big lifters until you throw on 3 plates of 45,s on and do 6 reps on your own they just put there heads down hahahaha foh

There's nobody that hardcore at my gym at all. Their gym bags are generally filled with pre work out, protein and most likely tampons.
 
You know what else piss me off the ons that bring in the chalk and leave all the weights full of that white residue bro wipe that shit off
 
I've got a shit ton of pet peeves at the gym, but the people that irritate me most are the ones that hog multiples pieces of equipment or one piece of equipment for a ridiculous length of time. We have 3 that I encounter on a regular basis:

(1) The d-bag doing a circuit in the free weight area. Last week this guy was using 1 of 2 squat racks, both Smith machines, both sides of the cable crossover, 1 of the benches in the DB area, 1 of the assisted dip machines (also used for unassisted dips at my gym), and f*** knows what else. Hey do you think the rest of us could use YOUR gym also?

(2) The 2 kids using both preacher benches for an HOUR. Seriously, an hour. They load the straight bar on one and the EZ bar on the other. Then they swap back and forth for an hour.

(3) The woman who does the exact same workout EVERY day and has been doing for the last 3 years. It's like Groundhog Day (the movie). Haven't you noticed that you are lifting the same amount of weight and look exactly the same as the day you started? Of course, that's your problem. My problem is that this woman carries an arsenal of personal belongings onto the floor and then uses them to reserve the 7 different pieces of equipment that she will use as she completes her Groundhog Day circuit.

8. Taking the bench press bar to do dead lifts. There's another place for that.

We actually don't have any spare Oly bars at my gym. You have to take them off one of the benches or squat racks. :/
