This might sound stupid, cuz maybe I'm the only one who has one. Anyway, I was about to start some squats earlier, and said to my self, "I'm about the blow this s**t up!" My boy and I always say this before a work out or when we're on our way to the gym. We always say a phrase close to that, and it gets us in the mind frame. Anyone else have one? Hopefully I'm not the only one :scratch: .

"where are all the white women at"

I don't say it loud and only to myself but before a lift I'll say "Move **** it....only pussies stand still."
my gym is a total dungeon. it's a hardcore powerlifting gym. we don't have a gym motto, but we occasionally reference the wall of shame. it has all the banana shaped barbells that were destroyed hanging on it, as well as various other pieces of equipment that were annihilated using insane poundages. one quick look at that before you slide into the squat rack and it's "nuf said"!
d*amn dude, i want train at your gym!Quote:

LOL...for instance, We usually criticize how weak one another is, constantly.. Usually all comments are followed up by: "You Look Small" Sometimes it's "How much water you holding, or go put a fuking diaper on bitch" (out loud)" lol..and sometimes it's, "Go to the lost and found, cause your strength, and pride are missing" Alot of cussing, but the job gets done.. After an hour nonstop of saying some of the most sh!ttest things we can say to eachother, we laugh it of, an then we go eat..
I wouldn't reccomend this training method to anyone who can't take a joke.. But this pushes me when i'm at the gym, and i go with what works.. Call me crazy, but it works.. My gym actually has some big ass banners, with good quote's on them too..
Here's a couple, i can remember:
Never never, never give up!!
Whether you think you can or you can't you're right!!
Mine is " I wonder if the chick at the counter will do me?"
I always ask my partner. I thought this was a gym. where the hell is all the good looking in shape chiks?
I dunno if my gym has one... when I walk in I turn the volume on my MP3 all the way up, and turn off my brain completely. :)
Red
"When you're done this...you get to go home."
how about, "i'm gonna kill that mofo that doesn't put the dumbells back in the right spot"
One statement re-motivates me in everything I do..
"Today For Tomorrow"
Peace

I like that one... do you think my wife will think it's funny when i ask her if she is wearing a diaper..???
LOL
peace

That's my new motto as of last night.
Here is one...... "If you are using the Girlie man's weights... go to the machines... stay out of the free weight area"
At least it should be..............
"exercise your muscles not your ego" - in reference to proper form
Thats diggin deep bro, lol..that may lead into trouble after you guys are done.. I can't stress enough, "you must have a good sense of humor" It's defintley a different approach, but it works.. We get pretty ruthless though..Quote:

I'll show 'em who's the man.
yeah, i'm lucky to be there. what's left of the carpet is duct taped to the floor. the floor is covered in chalk dust, the walls have fist holes in them from missed max attempts. even the chicks are hardcore. we have one with a 365lb bench and several with squats in the high 300s. no dress code, no noise code, no laguage code, and it's easy to tell if it's a busy day...you can see the cloud of chalk dust comin' out the door before you get in the parking lot. and last but not least....we share the building with a diner so none of us go hungry!Quote:

probably cause noone ever moves weight like that at my gym
There's banners and posters up with all the usual motto's:
-"You're not going to get huge by just looking at those weights"
-A cartoon pic of a muscle man, then "Becuase you can't flex fat"
-A old picture of Arnold, then under "The best activitities for your health are pumping and humping."- 1975
-Another one with Arnold, and "Milk is for babies. When you grow up you have to drink beer."
-"It's simple, if it jiggles, it's fat."
These are all in the heavy weightroom, we've had a few older, larger women complain.
When I'm working out with a friend and he's struggling I'll take the quote from Pumping Iron and tell him "Common, lets get serious" in the Arnold accent.
How about this one.........
Your dues are due on the 1st monday of each month....................
When I got on the weight... i always tell myself "this aint sh!t".. gets me pumped and sets my mind for the lift.
My buddy and I are quite the same! For instance he has this thing about people touching his face. Well, on a last set or if he was stuggling, I give him a little bitch slap, and he gets so fired up he'll rep out 2 or 3 more reps. Gets him every time. He just has to call me fat ass to get me fired up.Quote:
