Douchebags at the gym...

Just throw them out. I just yell at them.
 
Of course walking into a gym it's a known fact you'll have to wait for the bench presses. Atleast at college recs anyways.. had a kid do around 12 sets, 5 reps each, with 95lbs. I don't mind waiting but it took him 25 minutes(took leisurely breaks in between).. I just wanna know what kinda program this prick thought of.

I do roughly 5mins rest (somewhere between 3.5-4.5mins) for bench presses while on EBroser's P/RR/S power week. since i know i'm gonna take too long, whenever i see someone wanting to use the bench i always offer it and work alternately (even if i know i would have to remove 150lbs just so a guy could start benching, then put the weights back on when it was my turn).

oh and one guy thought i was a douche because of this, i offered him the bench, (even if i had just 2 sets left) he said no he would wait. i said "are you sure because i will take long rests?" he said yup.. after the 2nd to the last set, during the rest period he comes up to me and says "are you going to "play", hurry up i will use!" (a**hole calls an exercise "playing").. he comes from India BTW..
 
Last night's super douche: So there is this kid that is about 22, 23 years old. I just started going back to the gym 3 months ago and one month in he was asking me what I eat because he wanted to look like me. Fast forward to now and in the last month he has put on about 10 or so pounds. He is my douche of the day because he is on "anabolic enhancers" or pro-steroids if you will and he walks around like he is a genetic freak. This guy asks him what he's taking and he says he is eating a lot and taking vitamins. His buddy beside him busts him out for being on steroids and he acts like it isn't helping him. This is a kid that has been in the gym 6 months and could not put on size. He is my douche for being a wannabe badass. That is all.

Forgot to mention. He is only concerned about getting an AI for estrogen and no clue about pct. He is the type of d-bag that will be out of the gym in 2 months because he is going to be all kinds of ****ed up.

Just do yourself a favor and ignore the red dot. I used to do photography and they were pushy as customers for that as well.
 
Yeah the worst is my one friend who cycled Atleast 12 different prohormones throughout the year and was trying to tell me why I couldn't get my bench up and everything I did was wrong. While he was running everything possible.
 
Lol at people who take PHs and have been lifting longer and weigh more, who still lift less than me.

Damn people. I could be huge if I decided to step up to some harder PH or real gear. I don't want to do that for another 6+ years at least. People need to get a sense of the real work it takes to get their body in shape, and forget pinning and sitting on their couch as their main workout. Those guys piss me off. And then the meatheads who run a few cycles and get half big but can't keep it and still can't lift, just blew up.

I can understand why this would piss someone off

People that assume that by taking steroids they could be "HUGE" or on some other people's level are no different.. The guy who finds out you cycle then says "yeah I'd be just as big as you if I used" uhhh no you wouldn't

So you are saying that steroids don't work? Sure you can't get big just by cycling and doing nothing else. But you can also get half decent size with a crappy diet and training program with no direction. I know I could be much stronger or bigger with steroids. When you dial in your life to the specifics and push your natural limits, obvious using will help.

I know what you mean, the scrawney or inferiority complex guy who uses it as an excuse as to why he's small. I'm with you on that for sure. But there are instances where that saying does apply to guys who do train mostly natty as far as roids go. I'm not here for a big debate.

Yes you are! Get him guys! :p

How do you KNOW this
 
I was just wondering how you KNOW you would get bigger and stronger if you pinned

Not really a point just sound like you have it all figured out

Because steroids work through a well known and studied biochemical process with those effects and probably millions of guys have cycled and you can read their logs and experiences online... It's not a hard concept. If your asking why I think I could personally see gains on cycle, I know my diet sleep and training is on point, and I am making gains off cycle. Obviously a properly run cycle from start to finish would net me gains. You don't lose muscle from pinning etc other than what you may lose in pct unless your really stupid.

First I meant the point of you posting that in the first place. Like are you trying to contribute something or just trying to start ****?

Secondly, I never said I "knew"? Why the hell are you being and ass hole and a douche bag in the douchebag thread? You want to make it that obviously to the whole forum? Jeez. I guess this is what happens to forums after a few years...

Maybe I took what you posted the wrong way, but I don't appreciate the **** your trying to give me. Thanks for wasting 5 minutes of my night.

I was just asking about you personally and wasn't trying to be a dick

Just felt like you we're trying to convey that steroids do all the work on there own I guess I didn't read enough into what you said

Lol first of all don't try to school me on things I've done and you haven't. You're sounding like you're taking things out of proportion, in fact making yourself sound like a douchebag. I have friends who have done numerous cycles including myself, some gain well, some don't. People's bodies react differently. Yes, it would give you another edge, but the way you said it in your original statement sounded dangerously close to shrugging off the fact that it takes almost twice the dedication and preparation to keep solid gains from gear. Louie Simmons said it the best, "The men using anabolic steroids(correctly), work WAY harder than those who aren't.. Btw you're not completely wrong in what you were saying, it just sounded like you were negating the hard work anabolic users(most) still put in

^exactly what I'm saying I'm not trying to be a dick either, but read all the studies you want you won't know how it affects you till you pull the trigger. I just don't like it when people make it sound as if anabolic a make it a given you're going to be HUGE

I never said that. I think you seriously misread my post. I'm sorry if you don't understand the science behind what you use... lol. Are you saying that people using something thousands of times is no evidence of how it works?! Studies, logs, all the big guys out there today on the powerlifting, bodybuilding, and strong man scene who are bigger than man could ever get 80 years ago, prove that with proper use a cycle can be a valuable tool. Why the hell would I have run a cycle when I am still young?

Were saying the same thing, just in a different way I think. I'm pretty sure that you guys misread my one sentence. I wasn't trying to school you, but it's frustrating sometimes for guys who lift hard, eat right, etc to have guys who do use look down on them. I don't use for several reasons, mostly because I am young and don't need to mess w/ it now. Doesn't mean I don't understand it or know people who have used. Sorry for the confusing man.

Nah, I was saying they don't work if you don't do anything lol. Sorry for the confusion.
 
Basically if you do this right while natty and gain then you will probably see great gains while on cycle.

You can see changes while on cycle even if other things are sh1tty.

I'd be ok with this statement except for the fact you try to be a keyboard warrior on another thread.. FYI I was much bigger than you, before I did my first cycle have a good night

Not a keyboard warrior, when you two were the ones to start bitching in the first place. I guess you have that much time to stalk my posts now too. lol. fock off and go lift and quit talking. I'm glad you were bigger than me before, someone else was bigger than you too. It doesn't mean ****.

Want to know how to avoid confrontations online buddy? Don't post controversial statements with a matter of factual attitude

I didn't have any attitude, I just made a post. you can read it however you want. Sorry you took it the wrong way and threw a fit about it. Have a great night.

Edit: what is controversial? Say you have to have a good diet and training and understand how a cycle works to see gains, but you can see some gains even if your stuff is ****ty?

Quit making this into a bigger deal that it should be. Maybe you don't know how this forum works, I know you haven't posted or been a member here long. But were usually pretty relaxed about stuff. Save the big bad attitude for the gym.

Know how much time this whole thing took me? 5 minutes and your condescending behind the back post you made came up at the top of my page like it did on anyone else's, so nice try at being slick

Oh shi* you've been posting here for a while so that makes your theories correct! Forgive me I should have known you know everything based on you having more forum posts than me!
Who's stalking who's prof now little man

If I was gona be slick I wouldn't have posted it on a public forum big guy. I was joking around with a buddy and didn't mean to offend you. I'm sorry if I made you mad or upset you. Will you ever forgive me :box:

You would think that Tom, but apparently it's controversial... I guess I can't have my own opinions on things here anymore even though I have been posting them in this thread for years.


Sorry for the sh1tshow folks now back to what we were talking about...
 
To TRY and lighten the mood I will tell a story haha.

I see a high school kid I know deadlifting. His stance is real wide. Yes I know what sumo deadlifts are. But that wasn't what he was doing. He was deadlifting with a wide stance and grip outside of his knees. I stopped him and asked him what he was doing. He said some guy told him to widen his stance because the close stance is bad for the knees. I have been deadlifting for a while and have never heard such a thing. Kind of wish the guy had been there to ask wtf he was talking about.

Lol me and my buddy were deadlifting last week, I pull convention, he pulls sumo.

After a my buddy sets a PR, this guy walks over to him and says "did that hurt?" he replies yeah (it was a grueling PR). Then the guy says "that's cause yo' feet so far apart, it's ****ty, going to snap up yo back". We both had a good laugh as this guy walked away.
 
I though this thread was for posting ABOUT douchebags, not posting AS douchebags...

Anyways, we've all seen the guys that bounce the bar off their chest in a near sternum breaking manner while benching. I see it quite often, but tonight was the worst I've seen. On top of that, the kid would lock his elbows in a snapping motion at the top of each rep which also looked pretty painful to me. I would have offered him some tips, but every time I looked in his direction I would catch him trying to stare me down. Figured I'd just let him hurt himself for being a d bag and save me the trouble. Gotta learn the hard way sometimes I guess.

Heard a guy at the gym the other day talking about his steroid use and how he eats like absolute shyt. No homo but the man has a perfect body and I know eating like shyt didn't get him there. Also one of the biggest most roided out dudes at my gym uses horrific form my God its almost like he doesn't know what he's doing but...he works his muscles..the steroids allow him to grow...and I'm pretty sure I've read that someone on injectable tren can sit on his ass and build lean mass while burning fat without lifting a weight lmao ! Is this true?I just read it that's all
 
Ok...so the other day i was readding this thread about all these douches at the gym, and then these dbags came in and started talkin about gear and were like "no bro!, your wrong brah! , shut up bro!, no you shut up brah!" like a couple lil girl's that got their tampons stuck. They hijacked the thread and now i havent read a good douche post in like 4 pages.....


Douchebags! I hate it when this happens
 
My gym seems to have had an influx of teenagers who bring their skinny mates along to teach them how to train. I overheard this conversation last week:

DB's skinny mate: (bounces empty bar off his chest) "Is this right?"
DB: "Nah, you're bouncing it off your chest."

Good, I thought, he's correcting his form. But he had to go and spoil it when followed the statement up with:

"You only do that if you're doing a really heavy set and need some assistance"

Yep, that's exactly what your rib cage is for.. Bouncing heavy weights off! Genius!

The only thing sadder than bad gym advice are the guys who end up following it... broscience! lol

At least he deadlifts. I try and get more people to start doing the exercise but no one likes moving heavy ass weight apparently. *cue Ronny Coleman voice*

I was warming up to max deads yesterday, I have like 345 on and this annoying kid who told me he knows every martial art ever and is gona fight MMA, "joking" told me to put another plate on. I told him I was going to. Meanwhile he's squating like 195 on the smith machine and is taller and heavier than me. I ended up pulling 525. Probably shattered the poor guys self esteem. At least he still knows how to fight MMA...

What makes it better is I have 2 friends up here in the club MMA, and 1 is going to fight and 1 actually does train, and they call super BS on this kid. He's also a hump bencher with his hips almost higher than the bar when racked, and has his feet all over the place.

Legit deadlifting. It did bruise my own ego a bit though haha. Only doing triples with that weight right now.

I'm not sure. I hate blatantly bad form. I mean this kid just like he's trying to rub one off on each rep.

Haha you don't need to have a bruised ego, I have always had a strong dead and have been killing to get back for this max. Triples with that is still good, if your deadlifting over 500 at all your stronger than 99% of the guys out there today.

Haha I know I am just messing. Trying to slowly work my way up doing 5 pound jumps with triples. Last time I did 535 for a triple and it was easy. Figure I can do more than 600 but no point in maxing at this point.

I know what ya mean. I jumped my max from 500 to 525 there. With 5-3-1 I'm bumping my "max" 10 pounds a month so, it's kinda sweet for progress. Hopefully my chest wakes up soon.
 
D bag of the day: a girl doing a super set. She's using the bench, and a machine on the other side of the gym. I had to wait this one out till she was done, I couldnt be a dick. This girl was using up the bench and doing some tricep workout and then going to a cable machine to do an overhead tricep pulldown. I wanted to use the bench to do some incline dumbbell curls.
