    I'm probably a little more sensitive than usual because I'm nearing the end of my contest prep but fat people who are on the ab machines I need to use drive me bat shit crazy! I literally am starving exhausted and on gear trying to be ripped and you think your gonna have a six pack by doing a couple sets of weighted abs, get the f out of here. I need that machine and you need a good diet plan to follow for the next year ( just a look inside my crazy precontest brain right now)

    People that wear those vibram running shoes. It's even worse if they don't even go run with them on. Saw a dude recently rocking some gray/yellow vibrams and he was lifting arms.

    They guy I was bitching about higher on the page wears those stupid things. He drops his weights after every set and I keep hoping they bounce and get his feet.

    Theirs a couple fat guys that show up towards the end of my workout most every day wearing DIRTY muscle shirts and lifting with poor form. The other day one was trying to deadlift and I just felt bad so i waited until he was in between sets and as politely as possible offered some advice on proper form and before i could finish he interrupted me saying "I've been lifting weights longer than you've been alive and i know what I'm doing LITTLE BUDDY."

    This is what i wanted to say
    Then why the F**** are you dead lifting with both overhand grips, knees touching, all back and with the amount of weight i warm up with?! And believe me when i say Yes, he was trying to deadlift

    but i decided going back to my workout and waiting for the day i see him laying on the ground in pain would be more satisfying.

    the Strange Guy Who is Always at the Gym. Just when you think he isn't here today...there he is, lurking by the barbells.
    Members who dont wipe down the tread mill after using it
    The people that camp at the pool/sauna/steam room all day
    Guys wearing expensive workout clothes and dont have idea what they are doing at the gym
    Fat trainers telling you how to do abs
    I hate that my gym closes at 7pm weekends.

    Is it wrong to pray for things like that to happen? Cause I may have already done that.

    Since passing gas has been the topic of late. Here is something I do at the gym that pisses me off. I'll be in the squat cage squatting and I'd say at least 50% of the time, the weight of the iron on my shoulders while I'm squatting forces a fart out. Normally, I don't give a shit, except when there is some hot chick nearby and there I am busting ass.

    Oh god I hate those stupid things. They look retarded.

    I also hate the fat kids (when I say kids I mean teenagers) who play on the machines. The other day thre as this kid who was on the assisted pullup machine, but she was SITTING on the part you're supposed to put your knees on....and her friend was pushing the weights up and down by the CABLES. Damn kids. I wanted to slap them upside the head.

    So many things come to mind, but there is one guy at my gym who's fkn feet stink, he wears those old gym shoes you would wear as a kid at school, everywhere he walks the smell just lingers. Enough to make you spew everywhere, I think it's about time someone mentioned it to him. Surely he cal smell it.

    There is another dude that struts around like hes huge but u couldnt even tell he lifts, he was on the bench the other day, with obviously more weight than he could ever bench in his life.... He had a damn spotter either side of the fkn bar. Did not push out one rep unassisted, and the bar fell to his chest everytime quicker than the speed of gravity and he used the momentum to struggle and push up his 30% share of the weight. He stood up pushed his 12 year old boy chest out and strutted off to the squat rack where he loaded that right up, racked it off the rack. And bent his knees at about a 5 degree angle.... Wtf!! Some people will never fkn learn.

    And another guy that practically collects up every 20kg plate and loads the 45 leg press to the absolute max and his presses look like a half ass attempts at a calf raise, and speaking of calf raises he then lowers his feet to perform his calf raises and using momentum bounces the leg press up and down a cm or 2 no calf contraction what so ever. Watching this is both entertaining but extremely fkn frustrating at the same time!!

    usually just for water, I've been told i come off as an A**hole in the gym sometimes because i don't start conversations with people or stand around comparing workout playlists. I'd rather people think I'm an A**hole so i don't have to answer the same stupid questions that people ask.

    What do you weigh?
    How much do you bench?
    Oh you only do DBs? That's stupid, you should switch to BB instead
    What do you eat?
    My absolute favorite though is "Hey do you know where i can get some roids?"

    ^ this, I'd say I'd come across as a arrogant wanker, but I'm not at the gym to talk shit and socialize. I generally don't care what others are doing but between sets staring into the mirror my eyes wonder. Its not a bad thing noticing others you can learn from mistakes and it emphasizes and improves your own form

    When I'm laying on a bench under the racked bar with my hands on the bar clearly getting my breathing in check for the set and someone taps me on the knee and says "are you using this squat rack?" which was located about 25 feet from my bench. Also when I'm loaded up on deads I leave about 8-10 feet between me and the mirror so I can see my entire form fairly easy and some fat slvt gets in the 8-10 foot space with a high back bench and starts doing some weird a$$ ballerina stretches MID SET!
