Least Favorite Fitness Personality

[Mac11wildcat]

Thought this might be entertaining.

Spill it: your least favorite fitness/bodybuilding/powerlifting/strongman/fitbitch personality. Ample shit talking and video/photo evidence encouraged.

I have several, the first is Vince Delmonte:


One of the dumbest sounding, most brotastic, absolute shitheads on the market with a shit physique to match. Can’t believe Ben Pakulski partnered with him for some MI40 stuff.

My first is the guy who is too much into the bodybuilding /fitness fads

You see him for years at the gym, then cordless headphones become popular he starts to wear those, then some instagram fitness guy starts wearing yoga pants so he starts to wear those. He sees Shawn Rhoden wearing a hoodie at the gym, so he comes with the hoodie, the beats over it, yoga pants and only does legs now every time you see him. Next he starts having his buddy or girlfriend video him doing some funky ass movement while he acts like he's really concentrating/doesn't know they're filming and making stupid faces, oh and it's all gym shark. He also hardly looks like he lifts. He's consistent yes, but too infatuated with keeping up with what's popular to wear/do/act like at the gym

I can't stand to listen to this guy. I think I got a few I can find.

I have a few of these in the gym as well.

I'll walk in there with my bleach stained/paint splattered work clothes on and work out an hour before the gum closes. Sometimes ya got to get in the workout when you can regardless of what your wearing. So for those people to do that I feel like it's just a fad.

Forget the style, I can’t fucking afford to wear a brand new set of gym gear every day. My gym shirts are all old cutoff Ts and $10 gym shorts from TJMax. Only
place I spend money is on shoes: brand new pair of Nike MetCons twice a season usually. Best training shoe I’ve worn.

brand new pair of Nike MetCons twice a season usually

You saying you buy 8 pairs of shoes a year just for the gym. I’ve got a pair of rebook nanos I’ve had for 7 years and a pair of Nike oly shoes for 6 years, I couldn’t imagine any reason to purchase gym shoes more often then ever other year so I got to know why twice a season? And why Nike metcons cause if they fall apart that quick shouldn’t you not want to keep buying them

Meant twice a year my bad lol. Total Fuck up.

I’ve got old pairs in my closet, but you can’t tell me a 7yr old pair of shoes is doing anything for you. Everything about your body movement starts from the ground. You don’t think atleast a new training pair a year is warranted...? The MetCons have never fallen apart. But I know when they’re not as supportive as they had been. Pretty simple.

I would say the opposite my 7 year old nanos are by far the best shoe I’ve ever had to train in. It’s the nano 4 and people seek them out still. I’ve tried on tons of new shoes but I’ve never once put on a shoe and thought it was better then my OG pair. Plus Olympic lifting shoes should last forever IMO, so long as there’s no rips and tears. The only pair of lifting shoes I think someone would have to replace yearly are converse shoes and they weren’t made to take the beating that metcons or nanos can and I always seem to blowout the canvase on the sides deadlifting and this has never happened for my nanos and I’ve done 1000+ deadlift sessions with them easily.

If you notice a legit performance enhancement from new shoes then ya buy them I would too I’m a big gear guy and try everything but for shoes I like em comfy and familiar. You’re right with everything starting from the ground up which only makes me want to buy new shoes less cause I’m so accustomed to the ones I have. Also twice a year is much more acceptable for purchasing shoes the only reason I said anything was wrapping my head around 8 pairs a year


As for the people I don’t like in the gym, not a fan of the guys who give women advice. I hate watching the cringe moment of some nob regardless of how big or ripped they are or weird they are trying to tell some poor girl who did not ask for any of their advice. If you say you’re only helping or they were doing it wrong and you know better cool, do the same for that scrawny guy who actually does look up to the ripped guys but alas they won’t because every guy that is like that isn’t trying to give advice they are trying to catch puntang and I personally don’t thing the gym should be somewhere you try and do that especially starting with advice. If you fancy a lady make conversation and say fucking nothing about their training and let them do their thing. So ya basically I don’t like douches is all

X2 on Richard Simmons. Every time i see him on a talk show now, i'd like to choke him until his face turns blue...then squeeze harder for few more seconds.

Same, most of my gym clothes are things that are almost ready to be thrown away except my shoes. I get new Chucks about every year and Sabo deadlift shoes for deadlift. I'm just there to lift, not put on a fashion show. I'll save that money for my regular clothes.

They all fucking suck...on the other hand, that Rob Bailey guy- man- hes pretty fucking motivating both in the gym and life in general.

I watch Jason Blaha if im having trouble sleeping and need a remedy to snooze out. Kali Muscle fucking sucks too.

Once in awhile he surfaces. But i haven't seen him lately, thankfully.
