Gym Etiquette

All the above is why I love going in at 530am because their are only a hand full of members there. At my gym its the same people who show up right when they open. Lucky they are all pretty cool cats... come to the gym after 3pm and its a gong show.
 
Had a custard in the gym yesterday.. ( custard: Bit of a cunt, bit a bastard ), every set, every rep the guy was making the ' look at me' grunts.. and then looking around to see who was actually looking, and when you did look, he was trying to be all alpha male with the mean look and stare down... all cracked out 140lbs of him. Unfortunately , except for myself and my wife, everyone else in the gym at 10am on sat was a senior, so no one gave a rats ass, he was not happy. Those are the window licker's I really dislike in the gym.
 
This is why I moved gyms lol. I'm lucky enough to be at a gym that is small enough but has every single piece of equipment needed. The owner is an old school bodybuilder from back in the "Golden Years" who actually hired someone to make rounds every hour to rack and arrange all the weights. Not that they need it since everyone racks all thief weight in the right place anyways.
 
And don't take the bar off the decline bench so you can do some weird gay V sit-ups

Some people like to use the decline bench for bench and it's hard to do it without a bar phaggot

You know who you are.
 
I dont care if you want to waist 1/2 your gym time talking just dont come over to me and think im gona waist my time! People see me with my head phones on but no they still want to talk to me I dont F*#king get it
 
I remeber when u walked in a gym people kept their shit to themsepves and lifted. Today gyms are more of a meat rack or a gatjering place for sheeple that its unbelievable. My brother goes to a gym where your not allowed to grunt or be overly excited. Yes u can loose your membership if u grunt scream or are too excited over a lift but then again the heavieat dumbbells are 50lbs and theres only 4 45lbs plates at the squat rack and the bench area. Omfg

Sounds like PF. But they carry 75lbs dumbells now. LOL
 
Ok I sweat like a whore in church when I'm in the gym so I make damn sure to wipe it up after I'm finished with my sets. I can't stand when people leave a puddle of sweat on a bench or something. I know I'm sweaty too but come on clean up after yourself you dirty basterd. I don't wanna bath in your sweat.

I start to sweat when I think about going to the gym. So of course while I'm there I must use my towel and I clean up after I'm done. Common courtesy is not common these days. There is nothing worse than having to clean equipment before and after I use it. I wish they would kick those nasty MF's out of the place when they leave a puddle of sweat grease on the equipment.
 
Holy shit I love this thread! I work at a gym so I know exactly what everyone is talking about on here! My girl hears me rant about this shit all the time...
My biggest pet peeves are when people bitch to me about the real lifters grunting or being too loud. SHUT THE FUCK UP AND GET OVER IT. THEY DON'T COME TALK SHIT ABOUT HOW YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO LIFT AND THAT YOUR WORKOUTS ARE SHIT! I don't think grunting or yelling is a necessity but it you are passionate about your training and it helps you stay amped then keep it up! If you don't like the grunting, invest in some Beats headphones instead of your over priced gym attire!
When people don't sweat.
When they use our fucking towels as grips! Gloves bitch!
And when they spend 40 bucks a month to use the treadmill for 15 mins a day and bitch about prices...
And guys that never train legs or abs so they have this fucked up looking physique.
Done :)
 
1) If your black shoes with golden laces match your black socks with the golden insignia and also match your black shorts with gold pinstripes while also matching your gold shirt with black lettering AND YOUR WEARING SUNGLASSES INSIDE THE GYM....We will not be friends. Do not talk to me.

I am a sweaty whore in the gym and you are clearly a delicate flower who primped and selected matching clothing before you "worked out". We're from two different worlds.

2) If I see you doing this:

You're about to get stabbed.

3) If I'm doing deads on the squat platform and you wanna do squats in the rack I don't mind but you better wait until after I finish my set before you do yours. Basic bowling etiquette says you don't roll at the same time someone else does so I probably don't want to see into the abyss of your sweaty ass crack 2 feet away from my head while you squat and I deadlift.


Haha there is a father and son that always wear matching clothes in the gym. And the father seams to always wana b on whatever somone else is on. When he asks me if he can jump in or how many sets I have left I say. " u can't handle thos bro I'm going all day". Ill stay there tell he turns blue in the face just to piss him off.

Ohh and the ppl that ask how u get big or ripped but they don't take ur advice serious. You can't get big if u don't lift or eat right and u won't get ripped eating McDonald's.
 
OK, I didn't read though all of them, but did someone mention counting your reps out loud. Extra points if it's any partially in english
 
Oh I forgot to add the douche bags that talk shit because they can bench more than someone else in the gym...literally just happened...
Let's see how much you squat!

Lol half the time they can't bench the 300lbs they say they do. Usually ill ask them to prove it then of do them. That seems to shut em up

There's a dude at my gym that thinks he's the shit cus he can push up 3 plates...he's a rude cocky dick...with flat delts, no back, chicken legs, and no abs at all...just a decent size chest, and he's always talkin shit about ppl in the gym...
Fuckin douche...
 
PEOPLE- Stop bringing in your fucking kids. Everyone who can't stop cutting all your t shirts into thongs. Everyone who works out with an entourage of 8 people at any given time, SPLIT UP YOUR DAYS. 8 PEOPLE AROUND THE SAME BENCH GTFO.
