    idiots at the gym...unbelievable..

    i was in the middle of an 8 set shrug workout...i was using 80lb dumbells... they way the dumbell rack is set up, the 80 pounders are on the bottom rack on the end...so this idiot next to me was flat benching 45lb dumbells...the 45's are directly over the 80's.... so this jackweed gets done with his 3 huge sets of 10 with these 45's...he was very fatigued and put his weights in my 80lb slot... then he started to walk away... i had to yell "HEY"... when he turned around i pointed to my 80 pounders and told him he put his weights in the wrong spot...he said sorry, he was just tired didnt realize his mistake...then he put the 45's where they were supposed to go...this moron was lucky...when i go heavier, i just pick the weights off the rack and stand about 1 foot from the rack...and when im done, i drop the weights pretty much right back on the rack... had he made his mistake then, he might have been killed... hehehe...
    anyway... every day there are idiots like this...
    once i was doing my shrugs on a smith machine.... this stupid lady meant to hang her weights back onto the machine, but she accidently put them on my bar.... i stood there and watched her do it... then she walked away... so i had to take the weights off the bar and hang them correctly... man... some of these newbie gym people...they can drive you nuts....

    yup...
    see, there are alot of newbies at the gym...some of them have really bad form, some do goofy excercises..but usually they respect the gym, and others around them...but i will tell you this..i have a very controlled temper... if they piss off the wrong person on the wrong day..i wouldnt want to be the one to clean up that mess....

    I can't stand it when someone says it is "their" gym and all they do is pay fees every month just like the newbies. Give the newbies a break, you were there once dude, maybe just maybe, he may turn out to be like you someday

    LMAO!



    .....You ever wonder how you can get a mix match of weights put together? Like one of the 30's with a 60LB OR 90LB? it makes me wonder how that person was even able to sign a gym contract

    You better just be busting balls .............. I only go up to 95 maybe 100lbs and I have great traps........ it aint the weight it's how you do it.

    And this I hate the most.......... people that walk around the gym thinking they are bad mo fo's just because they use 135lbs on straight bar curls and cheat every rep or shrug 405 and never move their shoulders.

    hahahaah i knew i wasnt the only one thinking that lol. my gym only goes up to 125's but i have to use them for all 3 sets all to 12 reps. i hate my gym. they need dumbbells up to 200lbs at least. there are some big guys at my gym i dont know how they deal with it.

    im just busting balls too, 80lbs are respectable for someone just starting out or so
