Gym rants...

[bigbadasian]

|--[\\\]>-------- This is always a popular thread. I was over at MM and saw it there so i thought i'd start one here....any gym rants or funny gym stories? i will try and think of one and post one later, but for now...gotta love the guys who where spandex and tight shirts that look 'baggy' on them! LOL! wait i'm one of those guys...LOL

I don't think I have one gym rant. I always here them though. They are always from the guy who thinks he's huge (but really is not) and the subject is always squats (just to sound hardcore so the other board members will think he is tough LMAO.)

I just read one the other day where they guy was upset becaues everytime he goes to the gym there is always the skinny dude who jumps in front of him.

I will tell you just from experience. I have been the smaller guy in the gym and got no respect, but now I am the biggest (with the exception of my partener who we call Tree who is 275lbs at 6-7&bf but he is a bit tall) anyway, once you are big enough people will leave you alone. Anyone else who has experienced please chime in. With size comes respect, so the people ranting are usually the little dudes who want to sound tough on the boards.

This is not directed at you Big/

I got booted out of the gym for bending a couple of bars and scaring people because I was lifting "too heavy".

PB

Not saying Im the strongest guy around...but somewhat like PBs story; I got kicked out of a gym because a piece of equipment (seated row) broke. Even though it didnt break while I was using it, they said I am the guy using much more weight than anyone on it so I ruined the piece of equipment. They said it was a fitness gym, not a powerlifting gym. Didnt know wheather to say 'thank you' of 'fuck you'!

I'VE GOT SOOOO MANY OF THESE - LOL

Here's one -
I asked one of the bunnies that worked at the gym to give me spot on squat - hoping that I might get into trouble

As I proceeded to hit parallel, the largest RIIIP came out and I tore the entire crotch outta my shorts. This was early morning workout, so nobody else in the gym.

It all worked out OK as I slept with that gal later (she musta liked what she seen - LOL!!!)

Another

The gym owner was spotting me on flat bench. He's a big ol' gunnery sergeant. This was back when I read or heard that it was better to use a "no thumbs" grip.

I was warming up with 135, using no thumbs grip. Owner was just hangin' with me and there was no need for a spot, but he stood over me. So - as I always do when someone spots me, I tell him I'm going to do 15-20 (reps).

He's standing over me relatively relaxed, knowing I don't really need a spot.

On about rep 12 as I pushed the weight all the up, I cocked my hands forward (this wasn't my first time using no thumbs and I really don't know why this happened).

The bar hit my chest and seemed to bounce at least 12" I say that because Gunny was able to grab the bar off me when it was in MID-AIR!!!!

Get this - No pain, no bruise, no swelling, no redness. Went ahead and finished my workout. I haven't used a "no thumbs" grip since.

Last one - kinda scary

The college in the town I live in won 3 national football championships back in the 80's - when all of these stories took place. This one involved one of the HOTTEST cheerleaders that worked at the gym.

I was bench pressing and asked her for a spot. Again - I really didn't need the spot, I just want to see her crotch in my face for encouragement

I was doing 225 for about 12 reps and should get this and did this all the time.

For whatever reason, on the last rep, I got stuck! She's dancin' around as she can't pull it off my chest. I wasn't worried - I just told her to take the weights off and that I was OK!!

You know what happens next She takes off one 45# then proceeds to take the other off - ON THE SAME SIDE. I thought she knew what to do and when I looked over she was taking off the second plate (working very quickly as she thought I was in trouble, which I wasn't). Before I could yell at her, the plate was off. Immediately, as the last 45 cleared the bar, there was no way possible for me to hold or stabilize the bar. THE BAR WENT FLYING UP (VEERY QUICKY) RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER FACE. It would've given her a shave if she had facial hair!

Story

The hardest trainer I ever saw, the guy was leg pressing, maybe his 12th rep of forced reps, and I mean forced after failure, and he lets out this bloody vomit projectile that hits the mirror. He gets up, drives to the emergency room by himself. The doctor tells him he burst a blood vessel in his lungs and to take it easy for 3 weeks. 3 days later, he is back in the gym doing forced rep pulldowns. I still wonder what hapened to that guy. He is probably dead. Thats what I think.

|--[\\\]>--------- I just heard the other day that some guy (at my gym or another) said you should do heavy squats with your toes pointed inward (pigeon toed)! LOL! if that's not a good way to blow out your knees i dont know what is....he's prob. the same guy that says "Hey you should really swing your body back and forth when doing straight bar curls...it'll hit your bi's and lower back at the same time!" LOL!--fucking idiots. this is why so many ppl get hurt b/c they listen lame ass shit like this!

 

[Shockrock]

The idiots and assholes who love to do the shadow boxing or their karate moves in the mirror. NO ONE FUCKIN CARES if you know how to box or take karate...let alone watch you throw jabs and kicks at the mirror. Do these people know what a fuckin loser they look like? Just the other day I couldn't take it...little Brazilian kid just punching the air and finally I just said loud "Fuckin enough already, jesus christ quit it"...ha ha he picked up his water and moved on.

Shock

 

[Queefer]

Shock, I've noticed there are a lot of people who do that crap. These are the same ones who feel the need to run in place between sets. I wish you'd come to my gym and tell them to "calm the fuk down, you jazzercizen bastards".
