I stopped looking in the mirrors and the gym has gotten a lot less funny! hahahahhaha

OK OK,,, there is this guy at our gym that actually reserves a raquetball court to do his jump rope rouitne in. He dresses like a pirate guy, you know with bandana and black boxing boots, he is a tinch older, and he jumps quite slowly, counts out loud, does high jump double skips, and even that crossover to the sides, heeeya heeeya move.....--- but for the whole hour!


he is a riot, but has my respect!

It's the only place in my gym to do dips (you get rid of assistance by putting a dumbbell on the pad or w/e) but old people like to do sets of 50 dips and pullups with 90% of their body weigh on the resistance and they're only going through 1/8 the ROM. While their particular training techniques are theres alone and do not negatively affect me, It'd be nice if they didn't take 20 minutes just sitting on that machine, they like to rest on it too, it's likea lounge for them.

hey now!!!! the thing doesnt have 100% of my body weight available.

Duh because if he stumbled to the side the squat rack would catch him instead of falling to the floor.

Tonight I heard the following loudly spoken conversation:

"I really want to go up to her and tell her, 'even though I know your married, I just have to tell you you're hot... I don't mean it as flattery or anything, I just thought you should know.'" He went on for a bit about the hot married lady, and luckily at the time I was between sets, because I was laughing with my lifting buddy about the fact that someone needs to look up the word "flattery" in the dictionary!

Went to the gym today to do some light support work and there was a woman there I'd never seen before making a huge clattering noise with a weight rack on one of the machines and I thought 'great, I don't wanna have to be the one to go and tell this woman she's being annoying' but then something very funny and weird happened

She got off the machine and start stretching on the floor, she did the splits in a poorly fitting pair of tiny 70's nylon shorts and then stretched her body out in front of her literally 'presenting' herself to everyone behind her (no underwear). I must have been breathing distance of being a father again!

I give her the benefit of the doubt, thinking she must have been unaware that that would happen but then she gets on her back, brings her knees up to her chest so she looked like a Christmas Turkey and then spreads her legs!! I had to turn and laugh at this point as it was pretty obvious she was an exibitionist and getting something out of this.

She topped it off by doing some bicep curls on a bench, then dropping the bench down flat and doing the leg spread Turkey move again but on a bench making sure it was hard to miss. That woman must be crazier than Britney, it was like watching a hip hop video being filmed

She had a great body though, but a bit of a butter face

p.s. A staff member saw her doing this while on the bench and just smiled and looked the other way. If a man had done it he'd be chucked out!

Ya when I went to gym Saturday there was a girl doing some yoga moves and she had short loose shorts on. All sorts of moves showed off her underwear. At least she was wearing them I guess.

Of course you tried hard not to look, being the true gentleman.


I was at the gym the other day and there are these two ladies there one of them a milf the other still quite hot. Anyway the leg press would adjust it was stuck so I gave them a hand. Anyway long story short they kept talking to me and cracking jokes about men then on the way out in the car park the hot one asked me if I wanted to go back to their place and have a swim and she winked! Definately would have gone if I was single.
