Douchebags at the gym...

My gym doesn't stop me from doing squats barefoot, I just got a mean case of something on my feet about the 5th time so I stopped. haha
 
I urinate on the floor when I'm done. Kills the fungus and marks my territory.

Haha, honestly, I'm a germaphobe but I can't find the left side of my Vibrams. :/
 
Do socks help lol I don't do bare feet just socks.

I did wear socks. haha my feet started itching real bad and I just got out of the habit with the swiftness. I would get odd looks at first. haha
 
cant wear my darth vader shirt to the gym anymore took me 10 miniutes to start my workout because the old hippy lady that works there just had to show me all her granddaughters halloween pics since she was r2d2 cute kid but dammit i just wanna get in squat and get out.
 
Pregnancy farts, man.

I literally know of 1 time where my wife has farted in all the years we've been together. It was in her sleep. haha it is so rare for her that I still mess with her. haha

Seriously?? Have you ever gotten her pregnant? Where do her farts go?! Tell me her secrets, I got a lady coming over tonight and I'm bulking, so I've got less than desirable amounts of methane leakage...

3 times!!! She doesn't pass gas when she is awake. .....and your methane emissions I can not help with. When my wife and I first got together sometimes it would be so bad I'd wait for her to leave the room and I'd blame her dog. True story. I don't think she believed me though. Haha

What! That's unbelievable self control.... I've blamed farts on dogs before, I'm pretty sure no one believes that though.

My wife is similar, and I am so appreciative. :) When she was pregnant it was another story, though. lol

Not even during pregnancy. It was crazy. haha
 
Kind of off topic, but I didn't want to make an entire new thread.

When you go into the locker room and see an open locker,do you feel compelled to shut it? I've noticed I always do this. For some reason, I hate when the locker doors are open. I don't go out of my way to close them, if they are near the locker I'm using, I'll close them.

I don't use the lockers, but i always feel compelled to fix the plate racks and put the plates in the right spot.

These two don't bother me but I always have to wipe down the machines with new wipes before and after. I feel awkward to walk away without wiping.

There is a guy at the gym who spends 50% of his time arranging plates. It is really odd because he'll walk around looking for things out of order and in between sets start fixing them for other people.

Does he work there? Lol. Some people are OCD on just random things
 
Thank you!

From what I have noticed in my gym, more men than women wipe down their machine.

When I was working for 24 I had this lady try to get me to wipe down her machine, here is the kicker it wasn’t sweat on the machine...

I've gotten into the habit of re-racking my weights and wiping down. I've only seen a handful of people do that and it's mostly the dedicated bodybuilders.

Grosssss!!!!!
 
Grosssss!!!!!

It was filthy I gave that lady my cleaning gloves and told her that I was not touching that mess because I didnt want to catch anything. She was so pissed that she complained to my manager and I looked at him and said
"Tell me the she doesnt have aids or hepatitis and ill clean it up otherwise im not touching that."

Yes! It's called universal protection! You have to treat everyone as if they have something so you can be safe!!!

I think I might be the only person who wipes down their equipment.

I was one of those who never wiped the machine or re racked weights. Once I came back from my heart transplant, that changed. First, I have to be a little more careful of germs since I have a surpressed immune system. That is why I always wipe down my machine now. Second, I could barely lift a 10 pound plate when I first got back. It got me thinking that it isn't just strong guys that use free weights and plate loaded machines. Women, older people, and even gym noobs who are weaker use those things too. It is not fair to them to waste their energy or potential injury themselves moving a bunch of plates around. Also, if I have to re-rack weights before I can use the equipment, I am wasting my time and everyone's time has the same value.

I think to some extent that's exactly it. Thy think "if so-and-so can't unrack my weight they shouldn't lift". That's just a douchebag move. 9.9/10 it's tens on a curl bar, single plates on a bench or squat, and the occasional double plate on the rack for rows. I've NEVER seen 3 plates left rocked on anything.

My gym is notorious for people loading up the leg press, do quarter reps, and leave 5 plates on each side. It's terrible.

This one kid posted a video of him doing a 1rm on the leg press, half repped, saw it on Facebook a few hours later. Sigh.... I commented asking what his max squat was, he deleted my comment. Lol
 
cant stand the dudes that just walk around and talk to chicks as they're working out! Its like - dude! she's workin out, why dont you leave her the eFF alone and get the hell out of here.

also, i always find it funny when i see dudes that lift as chicks are walking by. as if they have something to prove!

I see a lot of random stuff left on bars. Last week on the bench was a 35 a 25 a 10 and two 5's and the person just left it on there. Happens too often where I go

Haha, I was dating a guy who bragged about leg pressing over 900 lbs, so I asked him what his 1rm in squatting was and he said 225. :/

I trust you ended that quickly. haha

Haha, oh yes! That's a pet peeve of mine. People who brag about their leg press number but have a sh*tty squat number.
 
Ehh **** em. Let them think they're badasses whilst real lifters squat, DL, and bench heavy weight.

lol, I always ask them about their squats when they tell me about their presses. That's the douche in me.... :D
