Why do some guys always talk about drugs

[Mr Chicago]

So this one older fellow in my gym who is always there keep mentioning steroids. I mean in every conversation no matter what. I don't really like to chit chat in the gym from the get go cause I'm there to bust my ass and go home. To watch guys stand around for long periods of time is a waste. Its not social hour. But anyway back to this guy. Physique wise he is pretty decent for his age. Legs ain't worth squat but I barely see him work the legs anyway. But while I'm preparing for my next set and just saying hi to the guy he comes and starts babbling at the mouth. Now me I really didnt pay attention but I heard the word steroids about 10 times. I guess he thinks I'm doing them......... But I'm not lol

Is he trying to sell or buy? A possible way to start up a future deal.

WHAT !

Is he trying to sell or buy? A possible way to start up a future deal.

Also a possible way to get POPPED ! Unless you know the guy I would not talk to him about gear. We had a guy like that in my old gym years ago, found out later he was a cop.

Agree 100%.
You would be suprised as to how much of LE is on gear or HGH.

 

[Mr Chicago]

He works there though. But I never really talk about it cause I'm not doing it and if I was its nobodies business. I would say its obvious he is on them but don't want to judge no one. But maybe he is looking to buy/sell. I just can't get over the fact that the man speaks about it so openly. I sometimes see younger guys hang around him and he could be "their" influence to the dark side so to speak. And he pretty fucking loud about it too, so annoying!

A long time ago before my 7 year break, there were a pair of old dudes who would hang out in the lockers telling jokes and talking about injuires.

One of them kepts saying steroids, but it was corticosteroids, he had some pain in the shoulder and was mentioning how the doctor put him on steroids, and he couldn't stand it bla, bla, bla.

Other than that, who knows as long as you don't engage in that type of conversation with him, just try to ignore him, and keep training, he'll get the hint eventually and go away.

I had the same thing happen to me a couple of weeks ago. I just told the guy point blank, don't talk about that subject with me, since it is illegal and I have alot of friends who are LE. He never talked about it since. Just be point blank with him.

OK

He works there though. But I never really talk about it cause I'm not doing it and if I was its nobodies business. I would say its obvious he is on them but don't want to judge no one.

I sometimes see younger guys hang around him and he could be "their" influence to the dark side so to speak. And he pretty fucking loud about it too, so annoying!

so maybe he is not LE, but i still would not even associate with a loud mouthed fool no matter what . LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS !!

 

[BOOMSHAKER]

Mr Chicago, unless you just come right out and tell him his conversation is boring and why doesnt he change the subject! Or you flat out don't like talking to people while you're working out. I don't think this guy will get the point! Some people you just have to be very blunt about it and tell them to GET LOST!

I was reading Chris Aceto's threads on RXmuscle and he seems to sway away from the drug talk and wants to focus more on training and nutrition... the foundations of BBing. One of few gurus who turn their focus in that direction instead of the pharamcological way. It doesnt matter age, maturity of the person... most every BBer and gym rat feels the need to talk about supps all the time and feels that a huge amount and variety of them is what seperates them from a Pro card or a Mr. O title. Many of these boards go the same way drug talk every thread. It gets overwhelming and a turn off to be quite frank. Unless you know and trust the guy or gal at the gym I wouldnt mention anything about any illegal drug items. Keep it to yourself and go about your biz. My fav are the guys who try and make eye contact with you and slowly make their way over in your direction in the gym then when your caught in the corner or locker room with no one around... you get that uncomfy lil question... gets old but as you know will be part of the territory. Just put on your headphones on, talk like a politician and keep moving

you let this guy bother you. just ignore him. use an mp3 player, so even if you do hear him over the music, pretend that you dont.

for better effect you might 'jam out' between sets. some head bopping maybe, or some cool air guitar. maybe even a little robot pop n' lock action if you like some oldschool breakbeats. if i saw some guy playing air guitar and doing the robot in the gym, i would stay FAR away lol

 

[Fa Seeshus]

i whisper to them that there is an amazing new wonder drug. when they come closer i yell in their ear: "ShuddupNliftAbol!"

usually ends any future conversations

 

[tatteredxangelx]

poke him w. a needle you just used

 

[6packguy]

I always think it is funny how when people see you making progress the first thing they ask is "what are you on?" They never ask about your diet, or training. It's like because you make gains you have to be on drugs. It's how amazing how ignorant people can be

Because they think its a Magic bullet

 

[boattail]

LE or not, this fool definitely sounds like someone to avoid

 

[kid1dakota]

Wear headphones while you train ,get some obnoxious bright color so everybody sees them.It helps stop people talking to you

1. Curiosity 'cause he probably wants to use them
2. An asshole trying to set you up.

I have recently had to start training in a commercial gym, I understand what you mean about conversation and a social hour. I put my ear phone in my ears and turn the volume of my angry metal music and ignore everything around me.

WTF?????? hahahahahaha
