They sound like the kind of guys that join Planet Fitness but back out because it is too hardcore.

2 interesting things happened to me at the gym.

1st - I was doing some heavy dumbbell rowing, I was really pushing myself and in the middle of the set i threw up a bit in my mouth, i just swallowed the puke and continued my set, didn't let that affect my workout.

2nd - A guy doing lat pulldowns asked me for a spot, he squeezed 4,5 reps by himself, then I was helping he get few more reps by pushing the bar downwards, The last few reps I got a pretty good workout from it. I mean, why not just lower the weight and do proper pulldowns

Wait, what?

Today a guy and his girlfriend were in the gym and he was trying to show her deadlifts using dumbells. She was having major problems with the balance of getting low. They were whisper screaming at each other and may have fought had there not been people around.

Funny thing is she was standing with her feet only about 4 inches apart. I think thats how he was doing it also with the trap bar. Lesson for the guys, dont train your girls.

Didnt see this personally, but my buddy pointed out a woman at the gym who he has done cardio next to. He was telling me how she will turn the treadmill on, keep it running and step off, make a phone call, head to the bathroom, get a drink, etc, the whole time keeping the machine on; and at the end, will tell her friend on the phone "I just finished doing an hour on the treadmill."

Ive also seen an late middle aged woman with a designer workout outfit trimmed with fur reading a magazine while doing leg presses.

Seen a guy doing bb bor with about 4" of movement.

^ lol, makes me laugh what some idiots do.

I did something a bit stupid yesterday whilst warming up with the bar for benching.
For some reason, instead on putting the bar back on the rack, i sat up with it for no reason at all. I dont no what i was thinking, so i just looked around to see if anyone was watching then i laid back down and put the bar on the rack.

My mind is too random sometimes.

I farted on every rep of my first set of deadlifts with like 60lb's.. It stank the whole gym out and I went over to the other side and did something else for 10 mins.

LOL, i fart nearly everytime i deadlift now. I fart everytime in the gym anyway, i dont mind farting in the gym its just when its loud or it stinks my area out.

See, there is a set of unwritten rules to the men's locker room/shower:

When naked (or nekked):

1. Always, I repeat, always bend at the knees when bending to get something from the ground. I've walked into the locker room only to catch an eye full of old man butthole-gooch powerhour.

2. It's accpetable to engage in conversation, but eye-contact or complete visual avoidance with the naked individual is mandatory.

3. With exception of a medical emergency, it is unacceptable to ever touch another male individual whether either/or both parties are naked.

I was in Iraq at a Marine base. It was about 18,000 Marines and about 240 Air Force, literally. Of course, the Marines felt themselves superior in every and any activity in existance. Needless to say, working out at the gym (PT Gear mandatory) was an interesting experience since we stood out like sore thumbs.

Now, don't get me wrong. Some of the Marines were completely jacked and educated on the necessary methods for well-rounded fitness.

Many of the other Marines were clueless about fitness aside from their arrogance. The clueless ones were generally the bigger ****heads too. They would either lift lighter weights as fast as possible (not utilizing the negative and cheating with momentum) or they would attempt to lift as much weight as possible with a reckless disregard to form or safety. Oh, yes. Those ones were the worst thing only doing bench and curls, except they did a lot of chin-ups. They were big into yelling at each other. Then again, so would you if you were brain-washed. J/p

This guy in the gym today is standing in front of the mirror and trying to pick something out of his nose with his finger for several minutes. He then walks over , without using a towel and picks up 2 dumbells.

Maybe he lost an ammonia tab up there cause he's HARDKORE

I watched this fat guy eat a protein bar while he was on the elliptical going like 5 mph today. Thought it was pretty funny, I was busting my ass doing a HIIT session on the treadmill, and this guy next to me was just chillen reading a magazine and eating a little meal while he gets his "workout" in.
