Funny how superficial we humans are.

I agree though. I used to like hide myself and i'd never be shirtless or anything near people cuz i was skinny as a fuckin twig. But now it doesn't bother me so much. I think the fact that i have abs helps a lot. Still a bit insecure though, just cant help it.
I hate those fucking dudes who come into the gym, sneer at something somebody is doing and then go post about it on a internet forum

oh wait
lesbians lifting heavier than me.
I've only been to a real gym twice. Some friends asked me to come with them, and I agreed. I decided to give benching a go, as I've never done it before. So while my friends were doing something else I decided to go with 65. Yes, I sucked at it. Yes, I found it hard. And yes, I probably looked like a complete idiot, trying to not make the weights swerve to one side.
On top of that, several people just stood there and looked at me. They weren't laughing or anything like that, but it's not exactly helping me. Don't look, go do your own stuff! Which is why I never found the gym very fun at all, because you'll have these really buff people stand and look at you.
When people fart SILENTLY while you're benching / squatting, then when you gasp for air, you inhale assbreath.

Ignore the lookers. Most of them are nice.
People you can tell have just started working out and think they know everything correcting you on things you know your doing right or people that say you always need a spotter even when your doing very low weight with high reps.
cba to look through the thread but Im sure its been said a million times: people who dont rerack their weights or who put their dumbbells back in the wrong spot. I hate finding 20's in the 60's section.

[QUOTE=Actionsoldius;31841016]I hate people that show you up.
Best Example EVAR!
I'm like 140 pounds and i'm benching like 150 for 3 sets of 10. This very large man was just staring at me the whole fuckin time.
As soon as i was done he walked over and put on 550 pounds or so and did 15 reps of it then just stared me down.
I'm just like wtf?!?[/QUOTE]
To me it just sounds like he was waiting for you to get off so he could use the bench. Unless there were other benches open?
Something I find funny, old women not doing tricep exercises properly. I don't know why but it always seems to be the old women.

some of them are probably remembering when they were like that. don't let that shit get to you. you're paying money to be there and anyone who cares enough to make fun of you is a fucking loser.
In my gym, there's literally always a group of kids sat around the Benchpress like, looking at each other's dicks or something. Every 10 minutes or so, one of them actually uses it, but for the rest of the time they're literally sat there doing fuck all but crowding the area.
So. Fucking. Annoying.
102 lbs asians who run constantly on the treadmill, then go jump rope.
WHY.
I hate people who only bench and not train their antagonist muscle and then they go "omg i look so weak" well it's because you're not doing shit to your back fucktard

Motherfucker I do this all the time.
Training at home however...
I load up the plates, get set into deadlift position... explode... explode in my pants.. and waft in my NO xplody goodness as my lungs devour assbreath.
People who come in wearing an old pair of gym shorts that are pretty much a fucking thong and some sliver of a shirt and sweat all over everything. There are towels and spraybottles for a reason. Use them you sick fuck.
i hate that fat guy that flings sweat on me when hes walking on the treadmill infront of the treadmill im running on
I just don't like the fat people at my gym. I know it's stupid and it's nothing against them but when you're doing cardio, would you rather stare at a mirror or some obese middle aged woman's blobby ass? It's just demotivating.
i like dark girls with a little meat on them
i like the ripple effect
When the dude I train with loses the tiny whatchamacall'em that holds the bench at certain angles.
Wait, it's me.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

i mean, distance runners are really skinny so this asian was probably trying to build up his mileage, though they would probably be better off running outside. jump roping.. no idea.
I woke up at 4am suddenly
It hit me that I left my weights on the squat rack.
fuckfuckfuckfuck
mine's from back in high school, more lulz than shit I hate
Bench pressing in the school gym, I was new to bench pressing but I'm a big guy, so I started with like 135lb. pretty easy. Then annoying 6'6" 250+ pound guy's like "man that's bitch weight", but doesn't get on the bench at all that day for me to see if he really lifts as much as he looks like he should
few months later, conditioning starts for the next season, his ass is bench pressing 65lb.
no joke.
I died.
whole team made fun of him because he was always being such a dick.
he changed schools.
Let's say I'm doing benchpress and it's time for a break, well while I'm on it some fucktard strikes in and tries to occupy it without even asking me about it.
Some people sweat like pigs on seats etc and don't clean them up afterwards.
People take weights, then just leave them where they used them, instead of carrying those weights back where they took them from.
This new kid transferred, and i tried to be nice so started talking to him and showing him around. Hes in my lifting class, and instantly puts on 325 on squat, to max to show our coach (he wants a max at beginning of year ot see improvements later)
Well, when i start squatting, he kept fucking with me, calling me a pussy, telling me to go lower. When i did go lower, insulted me etc.
Basically a cocky dick, but hes really small, like 5'7 and not big at all.
Benching, i did a 5x5, he was needing help on 3rd set, on 4th set, he dropped it on his chest trying to bounce it up, and almost broke his rib
ROFLORFLRLRLORORORLRFOLOLOLOLOL
cocky cunt.
[QUOTE=GhettoGeek;31570344]Sounds like they're only trying to see how to do things correctly by watching experienced people[/QUOTE]
i would've just walked over and asked. It's impolite to stare.
Kid cracked the cartilige in his ribs.
I hate it when people joke around with me while im lifting. Like insulting me while i squat is not going to help, neither is pinching my nipples while im on my last set.
fuck i hate school gyms sometimes.

he pinched your nipple when you were doing a workout?
i would fucking take off the weights and hit him in the face with the bar.
Seriously though, how did you not kick him in the dick?
Apparently everyone on the internet chooses to beat the shit out of every living person that annoys them.
