Douchebags at the gym...

[MANdrew]

Should have left him a methane present during your last set. Something to remember the next time he wants to bother you. haha

I've used this method to clear out sections of the gym.

I ate lunch one day at some Mexican restaurant with a bunch of friends to celebrate a birthday, and a few hours later I went to the gym. I was starting to feel a little uneasy in my stomach and I had a lot of gas.... Well the gym was mega crowded that night and I couldn't even get near the dumbell rack because every douche McGee was standing a foot away curling and staring at themselves in the mirror. So I walked back and forth and released a long trail of a methane present, and well.... Needless to say, about half of them walked away from the dumbell rack in the next 30 seconds and that was just enough for me to grab what I needed and go. This method is highly effective.

There was a couple who took up the power rack for over 2 hours!!! They used it before I got there and was still there after I left. If you're going to squat for 2 hours, it's whatever but move out of the way if you're just holding up the power rack by deadlifting or whatever.

I agree with you completely. People do the same thing at my gym. Unfortunately I've learned that in my gym you have to be a selfish prick to survive or you won't get to use any of the weights or do any of the exercises you intend on doing. So basically I've become a full blown douchebag..not by choice though..it's an evolutionary adaptation due to my environment lol

 

[puccah8808]

Sitting in effn class, listening to this douche tell my classmate some stupid sh*t!

95% of weight loss is your diet.

Girls are only suppose to eat 1800 cals a day and guys are only suppose to eat 1500 cals a day.

I can help you lose 30 lbs in 30 days.

Get your buck 50 a** out of my face.

I just kept my mouth shut....

 

[BillyBatson]

I got kicked out of the power rack today, whilst squatting, because some guy HAD to shrug in there. Jesus ****ing christ

How did you get kicked off ... or, more to the point, let yourself get kicked off ??

 

[BillyBatson]

His traps were subpar. My little brother has nicer traps than this goon I was on my 2nd to last set of squats and he kept ****ing asking me how many sets I had left , whilst hovering around the rack staring me down. I said f this, squatted, did a drop set and let him have the rack.

You should have said - "I don't know ... I'll be done when I'm done"

Nice, so he bullied you. Don't ever let anyone do that.

I had a similar situation. These little b*stards were talking **** (I had headphones in but I can still hear) talking about me hurrying up. Mind you these guys weigh about 160 apiece. I told them that "when you can back squat more than I can front squat, I'll hurry up." Needless to say, when I got done they worked up to their killer 155 pound sets. I snickered at them.

 

[nicksox15]

It's crap of them to try to hurry you up but everyone had their 155lb sets at one point. At least they were going to use a rack to actually squat, who cares if it was low weight? If they weighed 260 and squatted more than you it would still be douchy for them to hurry you up, but I'm sure you wouldn't have said anything to them then, lol.

 

[kisaj]

I don't know what is going on in the gyms you belong to, but that is unreal. I would love for something like that to happen to me.

My whole point was they were acting all bad-*ss and then proceeded to do that. They way they were carrying themselves and talking sh*t about me I thought they were going to at least work up to the weight I was front squatting. They were the d - bags everyone makes fun of that quit going after 2 weeks.

I would have trolled them a different way. And you SHOULD be able to squat more than me if you weigh that much. haha

How much you squatting?

 

[ryane87]

How much you squatting?

315 for 8 @ 6'2 190. Not anything fantastic. But I'm certainly not going to be standing behind someone saying, and I quote "this n*gga needs to hurry up so I can kill this." haha

 

[nicksox15]

Lol, should have included that gem of a line in your initial post. Wow

 

[ryane87]

Lol, should have included that gem of a line in your initial post. Wow

Sorry. Haha I guess I didn't specify their exact level of doughness. Today a woman wanted to squat when I was squatting and I told her she could work in and she didn't want to initially because of the different levels of strength. I told her I don't mind changing plates. Hell, I was impressed that she was 52 and using good form on her squats. haha

 

[ryane87]

*douche-ness wtf autocorrect. Doughness? Haha

I'm usually aggressive when people try to pul crap on me, but I just didn't feel like starting anything the other night. Exam time always has me feeling disconnected.

 

[kisaj]

I think I am more surprised that this is actually happening to people than not reacting to it. I could never imagine someone coming up hovering and talking ****. Maybe more mugging and eat **** looks are needed while walking around.

I think it is just a certain level of incompetence among youth. Especially ones just starting out acting like that. They don't understand hard work is and THINK they are working hard. Most people I come across in the morning at my gym are cool. It's the kids at night that act like that. They all think they are bad*ss for some reason. I would have never sat and talked **** to someone who could potentially destroy me. Haha I'd either ask if I could work in if they are all by themselves or if there is a group I just do a different exercise.

 

[MANdrew]

Someone please tell me what's going on...

So today I was deadlifting. Behind me, there was a group of 5 or so guys, all crowding around each other with a 95lb barbell, all trying to see who could cheat curl it the most. During my sets, I could feel them all staring at me and at one point I turned around to walk around and take a breather, and one of them looked at me and said "bro, what are you doing?" And I looked at him confused and said "....deadlifting?" And he said "you're just picking it up, what does that do?" And I just stared at him for a second because I thought he was joking, but I came to realize that these guys ACTUALLY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT A DEADLIFT WAS. So I explained it for a second and he and a couple other guys just seemed kind of confused, and their "alpha male" leader guy just kind of smirked and said he deadlifted 500 when he was in high school football, but stopped because he didn't want to hurt his knees anymore.

Wut.

I just read on your profile that you live in Aliso Viejo. Small world, I grew up in Mission Viejo. I'm gonna guess you go to an LA fitness or a 24 hour fitness right next to freakin Leisure World, the freakin massive retirement home out there? I bet there are endless amounts of pruny naked old men in your locker room. I'm sorry, man.

There's a dude at my gym who likes to "reserve" a piece of equipment ahead of when he plans to be there - even though he still has 3-4 sets remaining across the gym. The height of arrogance.

I have seen that guy who parks his own old sweat towel at the smith machine does a set of bench. Relaxes, walks around the gym and even hangs around chatting with people, perhaps doings s few more sets between sets and blocking that smith machine for half an hour

 

[lukehayd]

In my gym yesterday, two guys were using the Smith for at least 45 minutes. I wasn't complaining. Kept them from using any of the good equipment!!

As if to say that the smith machine isn't "good equipment?" :think:

 

[CincyKiller45]

Pretty funny situation happened at the gym today. So there's this dude and his wife that always comes into the gym with a baby. The baby can't be older than 1 years old. Well, I have my earbuds out for a few minutes and I hear this dude talking, but there's no one around.

I look over and this dude is holding his baby staring at himself in the mirror saying: "You want to watch daddy lift? Huh, you want to watch daddy move some weight?"

I'm not going to say the dudes a douche, I don't know him, but I was cracking up.

I couldn't even get wheysted tonight... Out of proteinz and paycheck doesn't come in til Friday

 

[RegisterJr]

I was the D-bag today.

I was super setting barbell hyper extensions and leg extensions with no breaks. my phone was at the hyperextension stand as well. When I got back over there some guy was using the stand. I've never had a problem with someone sharing equipment with me before, but I got irritated and I didn't have enough time to wait and do another set, so on his upward movement I stuck my foot down and push the barbell out from underneath the machine so I could take it back to the racks on the other side of the gym. It may not be that big of a deal, but it would've pizzed me off if I were him.

I wish I would've gotten a better look at him so I could apologize.

I usually go out but never drink. All my friends say I'm exactly the same drunk as I am sober.... Not sure if compliment or...

The only difference I have noticed since stopping drinking a few years ago has been the complete lack of the old beer belly

I hate the Smith so ^^yes. I had to use one for a while because that's all the gym I was at had. Didn't have enough money for membership to where I am now at that time and it was super cheap. As soon as I was able to afford the new gym, the geriatrics gym was in my past!!

This was me for years. Train hard, drink hard. I got pretty decent gains, But there would be the occasional day where I wasn't worth a damn. Now my training and life is more consistent. I wouldn't have thought myself a douche at the time. I can see it now, But I'm not sure if I agree with it.

 

[EatMoar]

Why do beer bellys form? From excessive beer drinking and ****ty food? Lol when I used to drink, I'd come home and eat my turkey and veggies aha

 

[Oscar]

im drinking, heavily to and i plan on lifting tomorrow evening, am I a douche for quieting my demons with iron and alcohol.
