The Wild West

[concreteguy]

I know a lot of you guys know I recently moved down to the NJ shore. I jointed a Retro Fitness there. It's about 15 minutes from my home, just off the Island. Since I have been there (three months) there has been four out right fist fights brake out in the gym. My entire life of training I have only seen this once before. Ya know the first time it was "wow that was nuts". The second time it was " holy shit again?". The third time I was put on notice and wondering why this is such an unstable environment. The forth time was just last night. I can't believe these ass holes keep this up and worst of all the fights are being broken up by members as the employees watch. Yes you read that correctly. I have noticed a few of these young bucks coming up in the mirror I training in and start their posting "as if to show me how bad they are" and I just keep training and blow them off. Then there are the guys and some of the trainers there that I'm working with on diet and training that are really cool. For the life of me I just don't remember being such a fucking moron at the ages these trouble makers are. Well........thanks for letting me rant.

Sounds like you may need to change gyms.

Way ahead of ya there. The problem is it's 45 minutes away. That's a ride. It's would also put all my pre and post supps, slin in the car and gym. I'm very uncomfortable with that.

Like I posted in another thread about Rich Piana getting punched.

To many of these young guys have grown up where there was not demand for respect so they strut around flexing on eachother to try to show dominance , 30 years ago if a youngster got out of line like that with an elder they get popped.
The pussyfication of todays society has caused this , I haven't been back three months and it seems like there is a dozen new little fuck that feel the need to try to "strut" when i'm in the gym.

I like to tell a true story here about my brother. My brother was an outlaw biker, I will keep name off board of Biker group out of respect for him. May he RIP. My brother never lifted weights, but he was a badass and could fight like most people can not. He was a street fighter and had scars to prove it.

One day some Body builder decided to start a fight with him. Now keep in mind this guy is 240 with 19" arms, strong as shit. My brother was only 175. This guy been in a few fights himself and was a bit of a bully. Just an asshole to me. Well, the guy was outside a bar one day, with my brother, as my brother was drinking a beer. The guy came up and cracked my brother. My brother went down and pick up his beer bottle and cracked it and then went on to slice this guy's face up. This guy screamed like a girl at that point.

Even a plastic surgeon could not put this guy's face back together. I could beat my brother in a real fight, the problem is he doesn't fight fair. Why I am telling you all this is most guys, who want to fight, just haven't been in a brutal enough fight. They also have not met a maniac who will mess them up bad. Now a days they also pull out guns. Being an asshole does have it's consequences. You might go all your life being an asshole, but every dog has it's day.

This is a fact , not many people have been in a fight for their life

 

[richiec]

CG, what are the ages of the people involved in these fights? Are they primarily younger guys?

I can vouch for such ferocity.....when I was in high school I worked room service for a major resort/golf course. Two of the main restaurant cooks were members of a well know outlaw MC club. They were super nice to me and my buddy, cooking us steaks for our break or whatever we wanted.

One weekend one of them got in a fight at a local bar, and after he knocked the other guy out he turned him on his stomach, opened the guys mouth and placed it over a curb and stomped on the back of his head............that is some sick shit.

That really sucks CG. I know what your talking about. I've seen many young guys in gyms I previously went to act like this. Im 27 but having two daughters and joining the military, I've have no time for bullshit. Sad to see young men with no dignity and respect. If I was you I would switch gyms before some tool ends up with your fist down his throat. 45 mins is a hike but it might be worth it.

What about building a home gym? Maybe thats something in your budget? I have two racks,three sets adjustable dumbells, cardio machines, and 600lbs weight... all for under 1,500.

I don't know about you guys, but I enjoy the synergy of training at a gym. That is when this horse shit isn't taking place.

so guys with something to "prove" lol

 

[Turkishexpress]

I would definitely email the ownership group or even the Corporate office of this issue. Usually one email from Corporate and the franchisee will be forced to ratify this issue. Usually through ensuring that any fights result in an automatic expulsion. It takes one person to make an example. They might also be forced to hire an off duty officer for security during peak hours. Job creation right there.
