tell me some observations from the gym you go to

[turnerg31]

thanks

id like to hear more stories about Kuwait !

Well, I've been there since 95 so I know a few things.  I've been following the bodybuilding in Kuwait the whole time.  It's funny, when I first got here it was easier for Kuwaitis to go to a pharmacy and get steroids than it was to get regular supplements.  They had to smuggle the supplements in from Bahrain and Dubai.  I was selling boxes of Mega Mass for $100.00 bucks a shot.  Business was good back then. Now supplements are readily available in Kuwait and prices have come down. Not by much.  You think you guys have it bad back in the States.  The prices over here are ridiculous. Incredible. Insane.  I still order my stuff from the States or by it on base so it's all good for me.  Anything specific you want to know just ask.

how come bodybuilding is so popular over there? the kuwaities are dressed from top to toe and have beards etc and bodybuilders have hardly no clothes and are clean shaven?

[NaturalWonder83]

maybe they like bodybuilders for other another reason?

[dov]

Only 2 white guys where I train, and neither one is the owner.

prison yard?

[Bluto]

another member pays for his membership

why?

[Rimbaud]

Lot of fat chicks on the cardio equipment, but they don't seem to be getting any thinner. Could be cuz the gym gives out free pizza on Mondays though.

I see that a lot too. 

[danielson]

The OC has a lot of fat chicks!

[Rimbaud]

90% of the members look the same as the day they started, if not worse

the personal trainers don't know how to train themselves, let alone somebody else

a few middle aged women like to train in open toed heels

most guys never bench a weight they can handle for more than 6 reps

frail old men like to give advice to larger younger men and they claim to have been huge in their younger days

many guys with twig legs leg press over a 1000 lbs with ease, which tells me big weights don't equal big muscles

every "expert" is either obese or skinny

[johnnynoname]

noon-ish is the best time cuz no one is there
the head trainer is actually NOT a douchebag

[240 is Back]

There really as those men who wear headbands, tiny shorts, high socks, wristbands, moustaches, and old style headphones.

[The Showstoppa]

theres a big fat naked guy that lays on the benches in the locker room after he showers...hell lay there for like half an hour

So you train at the same gym as Vance Goodbum?

Looks like a gym that would build a 160lb physique pretty good.
