    Probably local culture... I heard overseas, when you want to impersonate an American... you chew gum or so they think even though I live in America and dont see all that many people here chewing gum that often. I heard some regions of the country are really big in chewing gum... in the NE near New York and out west in California but maybe I am just buying into the same stereotypes the europeans have about Americans.

    I always like to chew gum. Think of it as breath assurance.

    Never chewed gum when I worked out. There is Jolt gum, which has about 200 mg of caffeine, but I doubt that is what is going on. Probably just guys wanting to chew gum. I dunno.

    i'm in the opinion that yeah..they're probably just chewing gum, being hardcore or because its what they've just "always done"

    I take it that you guys can not get a drink of water with gum in your mouth? I chew Cope while I lift, still very able to drink water. Quirky thread!
