Weight Training Stories

Anybody like to share their stories of what they seen or heard in the gym? Funny, scary, or amasing would be fine by me.

I always like the folks who load up the squat rack with about 500 pounds, put it on their shoulders and back out of the rack, and proceed to squat about 1 inch down a few times. Then they throw it back in the rack...

I saw a woman using one of the calf raise machines like a leg press - bending and pushing from the knees. It says "CALF RAISE" on it in big bold letters and has an instructional pic, and there is an actual leg press machine right next to it, but whatever...

One of my former training partners used to throw up almost every workout. He would just go outside. Chuck in the sewer drain, come back in and finish training.

One of the most hardcore dudes I have ever met.

Deadlifted 670lbs. I have seen him get 700 to mid thigh.

Log clean and pressed 300lbs.

Bodyweight 200lbs.
