    i might... i used to i know that much. those aren't something that any man would throw away! so i'm sure they're somewhere. i can't post them right now though - at work.. I'll put them up later.

    Yeah, I can handle a good arm snapping every once in a while... bring her on!

    1. People who think dropping plates and dumbells to cause a loud noise makes them big and strong.

    2. Muppets who wear weight belts 24/7.

    so im in the gym doin seated curls when these three stoners walk in. they scatter like rats in light and run around doing 1 set of every machine in the place and finally end up on the bench next to me....the three of them are sharing the bench mind you....one at each end and one in the middle. These kids are high as a kite and sweating like a whor in church....and one of them is curling 15 lb DB while the other two watch. All of a sudden..Cheech says to Chong.."Your looking good bro....buff" I dropped my weights and walked into the locker room to change my shorts. Funniest shit ever

    Holy shit today I almost flipped my lid. I was on the bike warming up for legs and I look over and there's this bitch on the eliptical with a cell phone to her ear. She was talking for like 10 mins. WTF could be so important that can't wait 30 min until she gets out of the gym? I don't know about you guys but when I'm doing cardio, I'm so out of breath I can't talk. I looked at her and shook my head. She gives me this dirty look like I'm the idiot. I wanted to walk over and grab her phone and smash it!

    Yeah. If you can read "The Atlantic Monthly" while you're doing cardio, you're not doing it hard enough.

    there was a kid who had to be about 17 in the gym walking around like he was a tough guy. Then had the nerve to stare at me when I was doing my workout. (I know his dad who is a Ultimate Fighter), i think a little rubbed off on him. He then proceeded to the shoulder press machine to join 2 friends of his. He throws on 45's on each side, goes to do the set and damn near crushed his chest in on the first rep. Haha just walked past and laughed. He also has a case of ABS.

    Exactly what I was thinking, Seattle. I was going to say she accidentally registered as a male. It happened to some girl a few weeks back.

    I can put up with about anything, I have my ipod and don't really pay attentions to anything until the man who never washes his gym clothes walks by.

    I mean this is f*cking Russia and there is a guy in our gym that hasn't washed his f*cking gear since Lenin was around.

    I seriously gag!

    This isn't recent but the funniest thing I saw - About 2 - 3 times a week this guy would come into the gym from his running group ( he ran pretty regular) and grab a couple DB's WAAAY too heavy for him -now this dude was 5'9" or so and weighed 135 - 140 soaking wet. So he'd pick up these 40 lbers and proceed to do alternating curls with the absolute worst form I have ever seen - twisting and bending and struggling and making some god awful noises. I had to be careful not to be starting a set when he showed up cause it cracked me up so bad I would start laughing and blow the set!
    The sad thing is a couple people tryed to help him out but he kept right at it.

    Dunno if this is just my gym, but loads of kids who train there (teenagers) seem to constantly scratch and grab at their balls for some reason. I doubt it's crabs - I reckon they are trying to emphasise their masculinity or something.

    Usually, these are the same people who train in groups of at least 3, normally 4 or 5. Hogging equipment and providing first class examples of shite form.

    Maybe I don't know enough, but is there science to doing like 100 light sets on the same body part?

    I see quite a few people work on biceps for like 45 minutes.

    I do four different excercises per body part, four sets of 6-12 reps, and it takes me 60 minutes to get through three body parts.

    I have a short asian guy who works out at my gym and he is about 5'1 or 2 and wears welding gloves for work out gloves and he also dresses in short shorts with knee high striped socks and brown leather boot loafers for shoes! Its the funniest shit I have ever seen! By the way he also can barely put up the bar itself when he benches. It sooo funny to watch him try to bench!

    I find it very hard not to laugh when i see someone benching the bar on it's own and struggling, it's just not something you see everyday lol. I've only ever witnessed this once, skinny kid he was.

    There was this one guy from my old gym who was mentally challanged, half blind, whose parents would drop him off at the gym for hours. I was happy to see that he found happiness in the gym and he was pretty built considering.
    He was doing flat bench dumbells with the 100lbs and asked someone for a spot. He lifted it up no problem than out of no where dropped them and one landed right on the spotters foot.
    The spotter lost 3 toes!

    he lost three toes or broke three toes? sounds kind of hard to lose three toes with that unless he was barefoot.

    i slammed a 90 pound dumbell on my toe once. OUCH did it hurt. i thought i broke a bone, but i was very relieved to know i didn't. scary stuff though. i had to quit my workout short that day b/c it hurt badly...

    was at the gym and this big dude walks in...he was probably about 6'6 260 solid muscle....so this guy starts workin on his forearms and after each set would run and hop around going "ah ah ah" cuz of the burn im guessing....i mean when ur muscles burning u want to do that but ive never actually looked like a little girl jumping and skipping across the gym goin "ah ah ah"....he no longer impressed me

    This guy at my last gym would raise his back up off the bench doing bb bench press to where only his shoulder blades were on the bench, do like 3-4 reps w/ no more than 135 then start walking around the place talking to everyone trying to stick his chest out and then leave after 20 min. of bs. he also would always wear this death row records tank top and dude was like 40 and thought he was just the baddest shit in the gym.

    Thought about this very thread yesterday while watching a guy on the Captain's chair literally swinging his feet up over his head and down past 180 degrees multiple times for what he seriously thought was a vigorous ab exercise.

    I`ve done way more stupid things than that, my friend.

    Once, when I was young and retarded, I did some sissy aparatus to work the inside of my thighs. No, that`s not the stupid thing I was gonna tell you about, there`s actually more.
    I had to get some really thin 25k plates as the machine didn`t have enough weights for me.

    Well, it turned out that the only pair of thin, 25K metal plates had been used on the leg press machine, and someone had loaded it with about 300 kgs with the plates I was looking for way in the back.

    So I start unload one side plate by plate (yeah, you all know where this is going, don`t ya?).
    After removing all the plates on one side I finally get one of the metal 25kgs I`m looking for. I had enough sense to pause and see if the leg press machine was going to tip over, but after looking at it for a few seconds without seeing any movement I conclude that it`s probably bolted to the floor so I start moving away.

    After walking about 10 meters my friend shouts something and I hear the loudest ****ing crash ever.
    Now, this is one of these really old leg press machines from the 70s. The one made out of nothing but really heavy metal and its now tipped on its side and stuck to a stack of plates weighing about 150kgs. The machine in itself probably weighs another 150 kgs.

    Me and my friend found out that we had to grab the machine and pull like there was no tomorrow. Then, when we had gotten it a few inches above ground we had to wiggle it so that bar in the machine got out of the hole in the lowest plate. Then the next one and so on.

    After dragging that infernal piece of shit all over the gym, leaving a nice fan shape trail of plates in our wake we were able to raise the machine, have the sled fall off the rail and smash my hand *SON OF A.....* and drag the beast back in its place.
    It was a workout in itself, took about 45 minutes I reckon.

    I train in my garage so don't see any crazy shit unless I do it myself. So, feeling a little bit left out by this I occasionally climb up onto my pull-up bar and hang upside down singing Red hot chilli pepper songs. lol

    How bout the punching dumbells? It seems to be the older dudes or the real young, new dudes doing that one. Maybe they're watching the older dudes? You know, they take 10-15lb dumbells and look in the mirror while shadow boxing using jabs. What body part does that work? Is that really a training excercise for boxers? If so, please educate me.
