Wat ticks u off at the gym

i hagte it when people sit on a bench and dont use it. or gym partners talking their asses off while you are waiting to use that machine.

Old people getting in my way and training too slow.

Well I'm in centurion.
Tuesday there was a guy doing dumbell curls on the bench press?
Why cant he just sit on the normal benches?

needless to say i was pretty pissed offff.

It gets better, the same fatty left the damn can on the treadmill, it caused an old lady to fall flat on her ass. It still gets better, I had to help carry the invilid to her car! FFS!

Ok I live in durban and what really ticks me off is skinny weak indians (no offence to indians here but they are the ones who seem to do this 99.9% of the time)When I am working out and need to use a machine or free weights that they are busy with when you ask them how many sets they have left they either say "I have just started" which is not an answer or they tell me something crazy like "15 sets". 15 sets on 1 exercise??? who the hell does that??? Then what really ticks me off is when I see them do the exercise they either go to heavy and their form is totally fucked up. Prime example is one of these guys trying to bench 4 plates on each side and they have one spotter each side and one spotter above them doing all the work thats 3 spotters then they finish the set and the guy walks around the gym like king kong or they go to light and they think it is a race because they are going way to fast. Tried to correct a couple of these dim wits but you get the "FUCK YOU LOOK" and they carry on doing it the way they were doing it. Then to top it off is I have actually seen some of these guys pose in the mirror after a set and they are skinner than a sheet of paper I mean WTF is going on here! The gym should transfer all members like that to a gym who caters for idiots like that.

mmmmmmm..... that can work quite nicely i think.

I know this topic is old was just reading through some of these. Chapel I take my hat of to you bro you have more patience than I do I would have tuned that ballie so bad I might of even given him a good puss clup across his head depending on his response back to me after tunning him out.

trained in the afternoon yesterday after a few months(i prefer 5am training) and holy fcuk it was packed. i asked these dudes if i cud use the smith machine after them n they were like its 3 of us and we each have 7 sets on the flat press then 7 sets incline and the we wanna do shrugs and so on! the whole time i was there they never left the smith machine!!!!!! and when they put the weights on they slam it into the next weight making a huge noise etc. they also walk around swearin each another like idiots! i wil never train in kingspark in the afternoon again!!!!!!!!!
wat is wrong with some people. to top it off they have that dumb struck look on their faces! i give up...

Thats why I train at 4pm so my weights is done at 5, somehow the kids come around 5pm... Probably parents dropping them off or something, I don't know.. But then by the time they come i'm up doing cardio,

these arent even kids....jus too much test in their system i suppose. argoarant. i know the one guy is a bouncer at a durban club and sells gear as well. his sidekicks jus are tiny but all of them r hyped up on gear and full of crap. i was shocked at the way they behaved. anyway..loved my training session this morning!
but u r right thou pumped.too many kids in the afetrnoon! in the morning in people jus do their shit and leave! no talkin and bull crap like that. im done in the morning within 45 to 60min max! only weights thou. do my cardio in the afternoon on the road.

Ye, I also strugle with those guys that have to drop everything, and bang weights and rack up plates but don't do proper form then leave their weights on... I much prefered training in the UK at their hardcore gym's.. Simple, you don't pack your stuff away, you not welcome... All monsters in the gym and everyone just gels with everyone.

Hey, Ever since Pumping Iron all those years ago I bang the weights a little into one another :blush:
But not enough to break them... Just the last inch or so.

P.S.
Yep it's that time of year again. Gym is full full in mornings and afternoon.

ya i have to agree..it is that time of year.
hey on a side note jus went to dichcem..the biogen iso whey is on special for 399 for a 3kg. its til the end of the month. they say after that it wil go bak to original price of close to 500.

Guys that take a shit in the gym...

our change rooms basins are right at the toilets so trying to clean up with this shit smell hangingaround is just nasty :sick:

For fucksakes take your shit at home before you come to gym :S

I love chicks dressing in white trousers with black g-strings.

Scrawny teenagers doin fly's on the bench press on my chest day.
"Seeing people bigger than me really pisses me off" LOL
