1. This guy that isn't even huge just lean but that doesn't even matter anyhow we were talking and he says that I should switch protein supplements every week and that I should work chest 3 days a week for maximum gains. 2. This old guy telling me that I'm not doing something correctly because his son does it differently. Not only that but when I say "Thanks, but I know what I'm doing" he'll go off and keep pestering 3. The people that do their reps really fucking fast/slam their weights. One approached me and insisted that what I was lifting was too heavy because I was lifting it at a non-spaz rate. I wasn't even struggling or anything they just think that what the highschool taught them is 100 percent correct.
They're just trying to help.
Why are people hating on partial reps?
[QUOTE=sp00ks;31675365]They're just trying to help.[/QUOTE] I mean the people that get pissy when you say "Thanks for the advice" and you keep doing it your way.
[QUOTE=sp00ks;31609659]I grunt like a mad cunt when I squat.[/QUOTE] I make a hissing noise because that's how I was taught.
[QUOTE=MaverickIB;31629805]When people try to "correct" you on stuff when you're really just doing it a different way on purpose. For example, idiots coming up to me saying I'm doing bench press wrong when I'm doing it close-grip. Or self proclaimed martial arts masters who try to tell me I'm kicking wrong when I'm really just kicking using a different style. A guy came up to me one day while I was Thai kicking a heavy bag and tried to tell me I was kicking wrong (he thought I should be doing TKD style kicks). I simply said "Thanks for the advice but I kinda know what I'm doing." Ran into him a week later and he pretty much wanted to fight me for being disrespectful or something stupid like that. I just laughed.[/QUOTE] He took 5 seconds to try and help you, you could take 5 seconds to explain why you're doing it the way you are. Crisis averted. Saying that does seem pretty rude. Even if he 'bothered' you.

When I went to taekwondo pretty much half of the people even with higher belts kicked "wrong." For an example you can do an acceptable sidekick without rising your hell and twisting your foot, but if you do that too often you will eventually end up having a knee injury.
I wasn't doing side kicks. I was doing roundhouse kicks. In TKD, you lead with the knee. In Muay Thai, you lead with the hip.
I hate it when im lifting ( i weigh 135 pounds) and i rep 145 3 times, then suddenly an old black man comes in. No problem, he is a nice guy, says hello. He then proceeds to put 500 on the fucking rack and bench that shit like a greek god with perfect form WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Your description was actually funny. I like you, I don't know why.

I don't have friends. All the friends I had are now IFBB pros.
Well, that sucks. I would like to offer to be your friend, and then reach bodybuilder status and abandon you. But, that would take quite a long time, and i am built like a spindly dick.
PM me, fucker. I will build you like a king.
I has pm'ed you "dawg".
i hate it when im checking out a hot babe and some faggot blocks my view
i hate it how no one puts the plates back on the plate rack so I have to run around the gym looking for plates and then when I get back some ass is using the only squat rack in the place ps I'm the only one in my gym who does squats and deadlifts, I've never seen anyone else doing them.
I fucking hate when people are too lazy to unload weights from bars. brb asking everyone in the gym if they are using the curl bar only to find out that the jerk left long ago
I unrack weights after I'm done, but only up to the big wheels (45 plates) out of habit. In high school, nobody ever did less than 135lbs on the big lifts so there was no point in unracking the last 45's on the bar. After a few years of that, it just stuck. So I guess anyone that does less than 135lbs probably thinks I'm an asshole.
asshole
Whenever I go to the gym with my mates, there's always a group of chavy arseholes who seem to spend more time staring at us rather than actually working out. I have no idea why they do this.

Is he one of those YMCA Karate instructors or something?

He's about 5'5" too, which made me laugh pretty hard when he told me "I'm going to kick you in your fucking head." I went and kicked the bag at around the 6'2" height (I'm 5'11". Could probably kick higher but that's where the chains start on the bag and I didn't feel like slicing my foot open), he just went "hmmph" and walked off.
When 120lb dudes come up to me after doing 5x5 or something like that, and say: [b]You should probobly be doing like 16-20 reps[/b]
mexicans who leave all the weights out and dont put them back mexicans who go to the gym, sit on all the benches, and just talk mexicans who go to the gym mexicans
People that bounce the barbell off of there fucking stomach when benching... especially the ones that make noises when they do it, such as "BOOOFFFF".... Lul.
