Good to see another Australian on the board! I'm turning American by the minute. I don't use kgs anymore and am now used to converting everything into pounds. Instead of mls and litres, I'm using fluid oz's and gallons.
Anyway, back onto the thread. As you might know zadok, sydney is full of lebo (lebanese) try hards that walk around the gym with imaginary lats and sport 12 inch arms (flexed) thinking they're the next Jay Cutler. It happens everywhere and in almost every gym. It usually comes down to the 'boys' who want to get big purely based on the fact that they might be able to score a root.
Then you have serious BB's such as ourselves who put time and dedication into our training, diets, sleeping habits and information resources such as meso (BEST BOARD IN THE WORLD).
Now it pisses me off when I see scrawny little fucks on their mobile phones inbetween sets on the bench when there's like 5 guys waiting to use it. And after they've done their 120lbs sets (with completely shit form) they make their way to the reception desk, sipping on their protein drinks whilst trying to pick up the receptionist for another good 30minutes.
Most gyms have turned into fuckin night clubs which Is why now I prefer to workout out at home.
I can scream as loud as I want, listen to whatever music I want, don't have to wait to use any of my equipment and I can do a workout in under 40minutes.
I'd love to find a cilivised gym with proper human beings who go there for one purpose and one purpose only.. TO WORKOUT.
But in Sydney Australia, that's completely out of the question.
There are too many show ponys in todays gyms, just my 0.2
