    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....

    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

    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

    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

    the funny thing is that since i dont lift as heavy as people that been working out for years they discredit my knowlage... while im pretty sure i know 20x more about nutrition and dieting then most in my gym..

    well, i heard 2 newbies talking a few weeks ago...every work out they did was on some sort of machine...one of them told the other one that he should only use machines, and never free weights... here is his reason..
    please be prepared to laugh...do not have any food in your mouth, and please swollow all drinks now...
    his reason not to use free weights was: "it causes you to have bad form, plus its much easier to adjust the weights on the machines"..
    hehehe..i see these guys about 1 or 2 times per week... they have a horrible routine... they never ever hit any freeweights...i think thats pretty funny.. these guys will never grow properly...they will be disproportioned...

    yeah, I agree man. ****in dumbasses at the gym. The average person is just not aware of their surroundings, FOR EXAMPLE: Go to the mall and look around in a store - people willl walk around staring at things and bump into you by accident, or they will start walking backwards without turning around like a smart person and run into you, or even funnier into a shelf knocking something over. People are just ****ing stupid.
