Gym Shamming

I legit walk directly in front of people that do that and pull what I need of the rack. Haha. I am still alive.

Some dude might crack you on the noggin with a 60lb db

1) Those who take their sweet time doing whatever they're doing, or those who do 100 sets. I'm going to a small gym, has only one squat rack which is the only spot you can do deadlifts. Now I go early in the morning and miss most of the morons, but I've been told by a friend of mine, that he asked someone how many sets he has left in the squat rack, and he replied "4 back and 4 front" in a gym full of people.

You should adapt your workout to the gym, not the other way around.

2) Women that only work legs and mostly butt related exercises.

3) Guys that turn into dogs when these women are around.

4) People who do not shower.

5) People who want to use the same machine as you, and instead of talking to you about hopping in between sets, they just walk in a distance around you, looking at you.

6) Guys who do not put the dumbbells back in their place, and guys that leave the plates on the bar.

I LOVE these women because their asses are superb!!!!

I can’t stand when people say they have 3 sets left and end up doing 5 or 6.

Trainers who count their client's reps out loud while I'm silently trying to count mine.

People who use 3 or 4 benches or machines at a time. Like a circuit.

 

[Kakarot]

Jackasses who put the treadmill up to a 15 incline and hold on for dear life. If you were walking up a hill that steep, you sure as hell wouldn’t have something to hold on to. It’s cheating, because if they were truly huffing it, they would wear out in two minutes.

I put the treadmill at 15 but only at a nice walking speed.

Do you hang on to the bar for dear life? Or do you pump those arms?

Losers doing squats in the curls rack.

 

[TenPin]

In no particular order:

Anybody who can’t put their shit back after they use it - just bad form

Dumbbells not racked in weight order - is it that hard really !

Muscle heads who can’t actually lift shit - huge biceps but can’t deadlift for shit WTF

Anybody who spend longer than 60 mins in the gym - your just not working hard enough - fuck off to the coffee shop to talk

Anybody wearing a TapOut tee shirt who has never actually rolled

Gyms who charge for water - put a fountain in FFS

Anyone who pisses on the toilet seat - your just a cunt

I feel personally attacked. Lmao guilty as charged sir. It seems to be working for me, lost 20 adding treadmill 20 minutes a day

Yup seen that at two different gyms in two different towns. This guy looks like the same guy and even dresses the Sam even though the towns are 900km apart lol. 3 reps of everything then repeat lol

Girls using bench for glute bridges with the bar when the gym has a glute bridge machine and no one using it. Sent them do this in the squat racks too.

Tootsie rolls for members when they walk into the gym

The guy spends equal time lifting and flexing in the mirror. Basically between every set. No he isnt a competitor at best a guy that goes the gym for health. It's not that big a deal just funny because no matter what day it is the same flexing. Leg day he is flexing abs and chest, arm day flexing abs and chest, back day flexing abs and chest.

Lmao, guess we know what “gym” you go to.

Not quite, but close.... Planet Fitness is the originator of this practice but I dont go to PF. I go to a cheap version of Goodlife which offers the same "perks" as PF lol

Lol I see enough crazy shit at the gym and you ain't kidding.

My pet peeves:

1) People who hog the dumbbells by taking them and placing in front of them on the bench and supersetting.
2) Too many talkers not much doing.
3) The dweebs walking around in tight tights looking like they are hot shit. Fuck that.

I hate dumb bell hogs I walk up and take them looking at them square in the face too and put them back and say learn some manners

We all have our own idea of what is dumb at the gym. I’d like to know what makes you shake your head. Let’s try to stay away from the typical, curling in the squat rack.

Mine:

1. Empty gym bags on the floor. Most gyms have lockers and if you can’t buy a lock some will have areas to keep valuables in plain sight. Nothing that I laugh at more than a few meat heads walking around like their going to the airport after their session. I’m not talking about guys that have actual stuff in their bag like belts or wraps etc.

2. No leg leg day. Hear me out. I’ve got at least two guys at my guy who walk around like they just finish a set of 315 on squat yet have the legs of a marathon runner. Did you ride in on a horse? Maybe that explains that bow legged walk.

3. 1/4 leg press 1000lbs. Are you trying to blow out a knee? Can’t go all of the way down then why not take off half the weight? You know it’s cheating when you push down using your arms? I’m not sure you’re fooling most, thinking that you could full rep 22 plates.

Yes I think those chicken leg weekend workout guys are funny too

I always put it on 8 and sometimes my lady will try it and I always tell her dont run walk fast and u can't hold on thats cheating
