Guest VicNabb Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Here are a few off mine: 1. Guys that feel the need to grunt during every rep. 2. Old people that have to clue what they are doing and look like they are having seizures when working out. 3. Mystery farters. 4. People who dress like they are going out to the club meanwhile they are just working out. 5. Mirror worshipers, the guys that are constantly in the mirrors flexing or fixing their hair. 6. Dudes who defy the gym guidelines and decide to work out with their shirts off even though its a rule that shirts are a must. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billt chamberlain Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 people that lift a lot of weight, and drop it down really hard on the floor just to bring attention to themselves and how much weight they are lifting. besides that i don't really hate anything about the gym.

Guest VicNabb Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I do that sometimes but they are heavy and it's def hard to put them down easy if you are in an awkward position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billt chamberlain Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 ^^^i understand that, thats why the floor is kinda rubbery so it absorbs the impact of the weight, but this one guy would wait until people was around his area to start lifting and then drop them down all heavy, get up and flex.

Diesel Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I [expletive]ing hate it when someone is using the thing I use and their taking forever. This morning some black dude was taking up the squat rack for like 30 [expletive]ing minutes. He rested for like 10 minutes between each set it was so gay. I was mad as hell. It's always the squat rack too. We only have one at my college gym and there's always someone using it doing some kind of lift. I miss the gym back home where I was the only person there that used it pretty much. I also hate when its crowded and there is a bunch of guys standing in the middle of the room wacking off just taking up space. If your done your workout then gtfo. Also hate it when people smell like [expletive] which is like all the time. I think some dudes just go there right when they get up and wait to take their shower afterward. It's actually a good idea, but it sucks for everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Universe Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I just hate the people who know they are bigger than you and are cocky about it. They seem to follow you on every machine but always raising the weight making you seem like an idiot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWaLL Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Really old people who look confused when lifting a 2 1/2 pound dumbbell in each hand. As mentioned before, mirror whores. Guys he can't take their eyes off of their own figure on the mirror to see their muscles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poe Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 People who do sort of a 'false effort'. Grunts, facial expressions, do workouts too quickly without paying any attention to detail just for the sake of being fast.. things of that nature just tick me off. Other than that, I agree with almost everything else said thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaDoink Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Also agree about dudes staring.

AtTheDriveIn Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Do none of your gyms have a cardio section? or are we all too macho to do cardio? With the cardio, The thing I hate the most is when one person follows another from machine to machine. They'll do like 4 minutes running, and their friend will have already done 15 or 20 and want to move on. And then when they do move on, the other person is on the other machine for a minute or two before hopping onto the same machine just to be next to their friend. And another major thing that annoys me. People talking on their mobiles when they're working out!! Some people can't ever put their phones down.

I play basketball for my cardio stuff and when I am at home I like jogging around the neighborhood, but running while staying in the same place or in a little circle is so boring Sometimes when I'm going heavy and I need more rests between sets I will take my phone out and text between sets. You mad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mad?That's how I usually feel with treadmills, but the ones at my gym have tv attachments on each of them with a remote and you can watch anything from sports games to cartoons. Makes the running seem a lot easier haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When people come right down from running and lay on a bench and get it all sweaty, then leave without cleaning it. Added one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtTheDriveIn Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Sometimes when I'm going heavy and I need more rests between sets I will take my phone out and text between sets. You mad? Unless you're resting for 5 minutes each set (which probably isn't the sign of a good workout), then you don't have a chance at sending any sort of worthwhile text, waiting for a response and then reading the response in under a minute and a half so why not just wait until you're finished what you're currently doing and then text all you like? Better yet, why not turn to the guy closest to you and tell him what you were gonna text? It's ridiculous that people can't take an hour of their time to do anything beneficial without needing or having some form of communicative gadget glues to their hand at all times.
