hey hey, some of us aren't in fancy schmancy gyms. It looks strangely like my t-bar set up at mine. haha
Am I a DB when I steal a bunch of weights to jerry rig a T bar setup? Haha

Why not just put it against the wall instead of using 3 45 pound plates? I used to just use a corner but most corners at the place I am at now are filled up.
They did that at my gym for a while then the wall started to look like something out of escape from Alcatraz. The numbnuts couldn't get the concept of putting a towel in the corner first. But it all worked out, I walked into the gym two months ago to a brand new t-bar holder bolted to the floor.

mikeg313 said:Yeah I used to do that and like always someone had to ruin it by ****ing up the walls so of course signs went up. Then they got in the t bar with the foot platforms and the handle bar style handles and i don't like it but I try and switch back n forth. that setup works pretty good that I did as long as you don't lurch forward which you shouldn't if your doing it right
My gym doesn't have a t-bar...I know of a jail that does though.
Speaking of which I had some guy stop me during my arm workout and ask for advice. Was asking how to make his upper chest "cut." Not real sure why he asked me. But I told him to do incline bb and that diet was more important. He decided that was too hard so he just did some incline db.
I was being a smart ass. I like t-bar rows from the floor like that better. My old gym in Indiana had a platform set-up to do t-bar rows with a coupla different grips. I still set up my own. I liked it better.
^^^ iparatroop just has a jail house fantasy about muscular sweaty men bent over tugging on big heavy polls grunting.... Will you spot me bro?!!!
Classic
There was a guy Saturday doing bb curls in our squat rack. I kid you not he stopped and talked for about 15min between sets. I got in after he was already there and did shoulders and tris in the time that it took him to do 4 sets of curls, and he was still doing biceps as I was leaving.
Hey it was just an easy bi workout.
I did curl in the squat rack, but someone was on the curl rack and our pos gym only has 2 racks and 2 bars. Lol. There were only me and my busy there as well so it didn't matter. The only reason I see to complain about it is if someone is waiting to use a Rack or if they are curling while another free barbel is not being used. If no one needs it it's not a big deal.
Yeah I agree, still always irks me a little though even if there isn't someone wanting to use it. Lol
Here's a little glimpse inside that guy's head:
Time to head to the Power Rack for some curls.
Wifebeater - Check
Duffel bag of mysterious items that will make people wonder if I juice (i.e. protein powder and socks) - Check
Barbell - Check
2nd Barbell in the perfect position for some to trip over - Check
Incline bench - Check
Cell Phone - Check
One wink at the mirror and I'm ready to go.
Haha exactly! I see this guy all the time. You should have seen his form. Never seen someone swing so much while curling!
This guy last night... FSDJFHSLKDJFHSJFHSOEJHFSE is how i felt.
I was trying to use the cables, he's on the set next to me - but during his breaks in between sets he is making an attempt at pop and locking or whatever that dance **** is...then the set after, he was shadow boxing...even though he is not a boxer and does no boxing fitness at the gym.
He is the reason that the word douche-bag is personified.
This dude and "shaker" (from my previous posts as Djanthum) are really good friends.
Currently looking for a new gym.
I need a new gym..the teens who use roids and scream on every set and are the only people who decide to take their shirt off at my gym while working out and then scream about how amazing they look...some girls come over to talk to them...but they're only average if that..guy says to this girl.
"You see that *insert name of car here didn't hear it* outside?" Girl says "umm noooo" he says "oh well that's mine *flexes lifts his shirt up* lol

the guys in your gym screaming, taking their shirts off, and using roids. must have a decent body?
guys at my gym doing the same thing (minus roids?). but their bodies are that of a gradeschooler.
i can hear them scream even if i'm on the other side of the gym with earphones on and level set to max..
i think i have to get better earphones?
Beats by Dre will do the trick.
For most anyway... It never seems to block the "TSSSAAAAAAAAAA!"
Bose Quiet Comforts would do the trick.

A good thirty pound dumbell on the nyts duri.g there bench does the trick....as long as you yell, 'STFU!' Right after you do it.
It has to be S-T-F-U though....not, shut the f*ck up...thia generation doesnt underatand real words...we gotta learn to speak there la.guage or at least on their higher,'l33t' level of communicating
Lol i love how youve named all of them
I might start the IDD (International Database of Douchebags)
Photos and everything lol...
Ill help! Ive got mad skrillz at pickin out douchbags and douchebaguets
Ok, I need an intervention. Today I was the douchebag. There is this girl at the gym every morning and she is smoking hot. Not a barbie doll, more of a feisty Latino with attitude, who works her ass off in the gym. She looks like the girl from the new M&M commercials, Naya Rivera. Anyhow, her a$$ should be framed and hung in the museum of fine art. So today she is training two friends, who were not too shabby either. So all three of them, in yoga pants are doing box jumps, burpees, pushups and jumping rope directly across from the leg extension machine.
Well, today was supposed to be abs/core day for me, but it immediately became leg day for me and I did 7 sets of leg extensions with long rest periods in between.

What about "Douche Bigelows" the guys that creep on all the chicks and never really have a structured workout?

Lol I hope that is a pic of the girl from the commercial and not the chick from your gym. If so you're on that stalking level.
