Douchebags at the gym...

Trainers annoy me when they occupy a bench or station with themselves or towels or whatever while the trainee is on a completely different nearby machine. Get the hell out of the way you aren't doing ****, go spot your customer instead of sitting on your ass watching them.

Also, dumbell hoarders.

fukn oath bro.

I hate trainers who do that.... so ****ing annoying. Dumbell hoarders piss me off as well... especially during peak time (which is when i sometimes contemplate punching them in the face)
 
I saw a 45+ year old guy doing curls in the squat rack with the bar. O and did I mention he was wearing an Affliction t-shirt? If he could define douche anymore he would have had it written on him somewhere...
 
How about the guys you see that you think are jacked and then they finally come in wearing shorts and not sweats... and you notice that their thighs are the same size as their forearms...

Also, as mentioned before, backwards hats while lifting.
 
I don't pay attention to anyone in the gym when I am lifting unless they are in the squat rack or using something I need then I let them know I am working in between their sets whether they like it or not. Whotf cares what someone is wearing, it shows your not concentrating on your workout enough.
What bugs me is when I am at a small gym I sometimes have to use and some woman or skinny marathon runner is angry because I am using all the 45's the useless gym has to offer and they want 2 for the leg press....I say take em in between sets
when I am not using them...and they throw a hissy fit..to which I laugh suggest they do some squats and keep working out.
 
I LOVE it when skinny little f***s do like a set of crunches and then lift up their shirt while they walk around on their chicken legs looking for who knows what. A male companion maybe?

that was prolly just Randy Couture warming up. :smirk: He probably left afterwards to look for a door frame so he could set up his own gym.
 
With Pattented Randy Coulture moves, LIKE THE BEST, THE LION, THE FREAK!!!
 
WITH SCIENTIFIC MUSCLE BLASTING MOVES CREATED FROM YOUR FAVORITE STARS: GARY COLEMAN'S PLYOMETRIX, KIM KARDASHIAN'S BOOTY BLASTER, AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST THE SITUATION'S AB WORK OUT!!!

DONT STOP, DONT DELAY, GET YOUR BODY TRANSFORMED TODAY!
 
see now aren't you guys sorry for picking on randy couture doing curls in your gym? he could have invited you to his gym so you could do that sweet workout with him.... you guys are missing out.
 
Holy ****e I thought you guys were referencing a mockumercial or something..then I looked up the vid...lmao@the squats..!!!!

Every gym has at least one.

At my gym he is one of these; that (Fat, lonely looking) dude who you made the mistake of acknowledging once as you walked past him (Another common mistake is trying to help someone with their form before they end up in a wheel-chair who ends up being one of these) who now just has to come up and give it the "WAZZZZZZZZZZUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP!?!?!?!?!" when you're on the last 2 reps of a power set. :frustrate

Or wants to come over and dribble **** about how his (Probably imaginary or inflatable) girlfriend is giving him the ****s while you're in the zone because you nodded at him once so obviously you care. Regardless of how many hints you drop the only way to get rid of this guy is to be as blunt as possible. :bryce:

So one of those episodes got me to wondering what the douchebags at your gym do to annoy/amuse you guys..?

Could be good for a laugh.

There was this weird physco guy who went to our gym for awhile, he would walk on a fully inclined treadmill in huge worn out carhart boots, with a fleece jacket and big work gloves, and he would shout random gibberish at the top of his lungs at random intervals. stuff like "they're coming for us"...You think I'm kidding...

Another guy is this annoying senile guy who has ****ty ass form on everything and sometimes takes up like 4 pieces of equipment at once doing like circuit training, but not quick circuits.

Every gym has the kids who hog the Bench press every workout, I have those too

The guys who use the squat rack for EVERYTHING. You don't need to do curls in the squat rack, especially since our gym only has ONE.

Biceps dude (as I call him), He trains bi's endlessly every workout.

Tank 1 and 2:
1: Was pretty bulky and BRUTALLY strong, but recently he lost a lot of size and a TON of strength, I think he came off a real suppressive cycle or something

2: 7 feet tall, massive everything probably at least 240 lb, I want him on my side. But he lifts hardly anything, 135 for rows, 90 lb dumbells for bench... I don't even...

There is also this creepy pedo guy who takes his shirt off and does sweaty yoga on the mats people use for warmups and stuff...

/rant

There are some cool people at my gym though, but that isn't for this thread I guess.
 
Tonight... Some god damn tall skinny ass vanilla gorilla and his little troll of a girlfriend were stumbling all over each other. ****ing around, checking her fat ass in the mirror and grabbing her tits, him bent over on top of her. Finally after minutes of this she got on the stair climber. Course then he'd sit the next to her and ****ing flirt... :AR15firing:

He finally walks over to the weight section and I **** you not. Less than 3 minutes go by and the ****ing troll comes a hop-skipping-and-a-jumping her ugly ass over to him. They grope for another minute or two. She looks at her fat ass in the mirror 5-6 times and I'm thinking "no bitch, flirting with your bean pole bf and walking 10 steps is not making that go away and even if it did? You're one ugly mother ****er any so don't waste your time". Then they proceed to walk back to the cardio area and hop on stair climbers right next to each other. Thank ****ING god my work out was over cause I seriously wanted to smash both of them in the face with a 45#.

This is the gym, not the ****ing bar!!! :censored:

/crosses legs and meditates

ahh much better :)

haha we all have the kids with annoying ugly girlfriends. i had a kid come up and ask to get a set in on the squat rack, and i let him have it and he takes off the weight except for about 50 lbs and does like 10 reps as slow as possible while his gf came over and talked to me. wtf. i was just like :bryce:, your bf will be done sooner or later. then he gets done, comes back over to me, and hes like sorry, couldnt keep the bitc**s away. i was just shaking my head.
 
Hmm, the gym can always be an opportunity to witness all types of douchery take place. "Douchery" can have general across-the-board application, but ultimately its a subjective term, for all i know ive come across as a douche to someone somehow, even though I consider myself to be respectful/respectable while at the gym in terms of my habits and behavior, hope not though. We can all agree that awkward or inappropriate forward behavior, or interrupting or disrupting sets etc is whack as ****, but what i find to be equally whack is people that go above n beyond to be unfriendly to you- such as when you simply n respectfully nod to acknowledge another human being making eye contact with you as u pass by to the drinking fountain, n they mean mug you. Doesnt happen much but all i know is im happy when at the gym even if im feeling intense, its my "happy place" where i choose to spend quality time, I feel like other ppl there are my brethren cuz theyre doin the same (ideally), so why act like a disgruntled lil bitch to others? Somtimes douche bag behavior provides a good laugh internally though, eveything in the world can serve a purpose somehow, even douchery...it reminds how NOT to act

Just found this thread...
My two biggest pet peeves at my gym have to be guys who wear hats to the gym, there really isnt any need in my opinion, especially since the workouts they do aren't "hardcore". Another one are the kids at my gym that halfass it on the squat or bench and claim they got a great workout in. I wouldn't have any problem if they did it with full ROM but they go a quarter of the way down and back up, why even unrack the bar?
Thats what I get for going to a "health club" instead of a real gym I guess.

It keeps the heat in during winter and the sweat out of your eyes during summer. Also good if you go to a fitness gym which has stupid huge skylights
and the suns in your face. Not sure why a hat makes you hardcore anyway...unless its an old hockey mask dripping blood, a viking helmet or a sweet knights helm. Probably not though.
 
I wear a hat solely to keep the sweat out of my eyes, if it makes me look like a douche... well, I'm a douche without sweat in my eyes ;)

Same here, also down low keeps the douche away!

LOL at people on here saying they dont notice any douchery at the gym! I train pretty hard too and in between sets, yep i look around, is entertaining!

Those gloves that double as straps that go up the arm 3/4 (or just gloves, sorry, dont dig em!)
dancers
Blue tooth
under armor
bosu ball things

Dude suffering from ILS (Invisible Lat syndrome) carrying invisible watermellons

People that stare
mirror gazers
talkers
machine hoarders
half reppers
 
Why do people carry a 75 pound bench, but it right in front of the dumbbell rack, so they can do 30 lb flys?

under armor? Really - I'd rather have everyone wear it and not have that nasty sweat left on every bench. Bleh. Sweaty bastards all over my gym always dripping on sh!t.
 
My hat is under armor, works a lot better than a regular hat (and I'd hate to mess up my UGA hat with sweatyness).

Fortunately for me, the YMCA just has a lot of old people and the random nerd or gay kid, so they all wipe it down, sanitize, polish, and generally leave the benches clean :D
 
OMG theres this one fat a$$ old mutha fukcer with titties that thinks hes the strongest guy in the gym with his god awful form. Homie thinks he tough sh!t swingin up 135 a few times in the squat rack. Of course he grunts loud as hell.

I just wanna be like "Yo bro, your form is sh!t. You look like sh!t. Get surgery on your obvious hideous drooping man-tits. Shut the fukc up. You fat fukc. I hate you and never come to the gym again."
 
Nah, I got ya all beat.
We just got new equipment in so our gym is actually pretty nice now.

Do you have ANY idea what a small enclosed gym full of Afghans that havnt takn a shower in weeks sweatn their arses off smells like !?!?

:sad:
 
wow, i actually just sat here and read all 12 pages of this! quality stuff. i'm loling at my desk.

here's another example of d-baggery...

I don't think she'll be ANYTHING in the future if she keeps doing stunts like that :P




So, today, this guy that looks at any male(like, gay-I'm-gonna-git-you look) comes into the free weights area to do his 5 lb curls and such. We have this thing: (t-Bar) Invalid Link Removed in front of a mirror (the mirror with the DB rack). I load up my weight for my last set and as I get it in the air, the pedo-looking dude gets right in front of me, grabs the 50s or 60s, and starts doing what could be mistaken for a shrug. I always make sure my form is good on T bars(especially since it's not the one where you basically lie on a pad), and this douche just walks up and starts doing whatever the hell he calls those things directly in front of me. He could have taken half a step to the side and I wouldn't have cared, but no. So I slammed it all down and stared at him until he finished and left the free weights area. Probably sounds stupid, but it seriously pissed me off. :grumpy:
 
This morning a I was doing hammer curls and a DOUCHE that came after I was there was like "yo bro, move outta the way man, I need to see my self and make sure my form is right" with a sidwayz DC hat (flat brim) and ice in his ears. what a *** !
Then he seriously did 10 reps MAYBE and left, UGHHH

The wannabe MMA guys wearing the skullkap when it is 90 degrees outside,and in between sets they shadow box in the mirrors for everyone to see. Or the classic D-BAg in the gym you only see two,or three times a week walking around like a gorilla(like he owns the place)only to do the same routine...chest,bi's,and tri's.

Haha i won't lie i could be called guilty on shadow boxing in the mirrors at the gym. Granted i'm more legit than half the guys i see do it, considering i've done Muay Thai now for over 5 years.

I'm sure though your shadow boxing is a little more legitimate looking than the shoulder leading upper cuts that every bro throws after a set of dumbbell curls.

Oh snaps i saw that the other day lol i was reppinng 110lbs on db bench when this older guy with his wife or gf idk sees me and tries to go for the 120lbs.. He almost ripped his shoulders out of his sockets i lol'd so hard his wife was all worried lol.. He could barley lift those ****ers of the rack wtf these people think damn ****ing fail
 
I see a d-bag MMA looking guy wearing a hat in the mornings all the time and this ****er isn't even breaking a sweat. Not even a drop. He rents a persoanl trainer and as far as I can tell hasn't developed much at all in the last 3 months...

He looks exactly like that one ****y tool with white hair on Ultimate fighter a few seasons back that threw **** in the pool, almost got kicked off the show and cried like a puss when he got drunk.
 
Last night I was in the gym and this kid kept bothering me for a spot. Pretty much on every set. He was doing alternating DB "curls" by standing against the wall (like starting strict curls) and then bridging while popping his hips and throwing his shoulder and then he'd curl it once his elbow was at shoulder height.

He could do 1-2 by himself and then he wanted a "spot" to get to 11. *sigh*

Oh, and they were 25lb dbs.
