Getting the Hater Stare From Dudes in the Gym

not high school but it might as well be, its a military gym. I can have an attitude with people I don't like, but I rarely talk to anyone other than the people I know. I'm sure it's just a different atmosphere from your gym. Personally the atmosphere I like most comes from hole in the wall gyms, there is just this sense of everyone is busting their ass and doesn't have that hater vision.

Lol, I just started training at a military gym, great gym! But you are right...it is just like high school.
I am bigger and older, so I get my space. But they are funny boys... trying to look tough.

Headphones, cap peak down, do your shit and get out.

Cant compare a military gym to a regular gym. Ive been to military gyms all over (Norfolk, Cherry Point, Great Lakes etc etc) in the military and nine times out of ten everyone in the gym has no idea what they are doing and they are generally out of shape.The military in general is an immature social club to begin with, so to combine it with a masculine sport like body building/power lifting you tend to get people that become very jealous. Glad to be a civilian again.

Whats even better than the hater stare, is what I like to call "Skullcap,wifebeater Mr. Animal Pak" they are about 160-175 lbs, skullcap over the eyes, doesnt speak to anybody, usually imaginary lat syndrome comes with their presence too. Also "Mr. hoodie sweatsuit Rocky mother****er" they can usually be seen right after the holidays when Rocky 1-6 is played religiously, and some fat lard gets a spark in his ass to go out and be tough for 2 days. I think every gym should have a couple

you forgot to mention mr. 80's workout gear, mr. grunts every rep of every set, and mr. I only own bb.com shirts

I couldn't agree more.
