Probably 47% of the posts on this board is about gimmicks or Walter Slobercock attacking someone he is sure is Josh, Howard or Alan.
Gym Gimmicks:
Gallon of water
hoodie on never making eye contact
Writing a log every set
Slapping your face
Smelling salts
Pulling out a tupperwear and eating on the bench
Wearing cutoffs or muscle shirts everyday to show off your tattoos
After a set "stalking" the gym showing intense focus
dropping the heavy dumbells to get everyones attention
Pumping yourself up and talking extremely loud before a heavy set
Setting a timer that goes off every minute to remind you your rest is done ( I actually see this)
Rubbing yourself with Ben-Gay to warm the muscle (Seen this with powerlifters)
Wearing sunglasses while working out
FOR THE WOMEN
Wearing see thru leggings
Doing exercises that make you stick out your butt
Wearing light coloured leggings to show off crotch sweat
Having camel toe
Makeing sure your leggings ride between your ass cheeks
Occupying every machine and space because of your circuit
-
I dont make much eye contact because i dont want to strike up conversations, I dont wear a hoodie though.
-
DAMN NOT A ONE...
-
Being tall and lanky, yet stronger than the permabulker midgets that populate the local PF?
-
I wear wrist straps every single workout. Even on leg days. Don't know why, don't care, but it just feels right and have no plans to change it.
-
Before training at home I was none of the above, my favorite pastime was sitting between sets watching this little hot female powerlifter with the greatest ass I ever seen in person do endless sets of ass to grass squats in the littlest tightest shorts possible, it was an amazing sight to behold, fucking beautiful

'writing a log every set'
-
Multiple characters and personalities over the years its awesome.
-
Cell phones are much more distracting/annoying than any gym gimmick.
-
I'm the guy you see in the shower stall for a post workout blowjob. My motto is " I never miss a drop and I'm not starting today"

Yes but hold on. Back in the 90's I remember a guy that would come into the gym and bring in a Wall Street Journal and an LA Times. Sit on a bench and take up another one right in front of him with his papers spread out. We never got mad like today with you guys and cell phones...we just laughed.
Today, jobs expect there workers to be accessible. Everything you need is on your phone. Email, newspapers, stocks, magazines, notepad, sports scores and odds for betting, etc. etc. Now I get it, the Jig that is always on the phone doesn't have a job or a boss he's just an idiot. But I have to constantly check my phone to see what is going on at work. Again...I can workout at the office gym so you wouldn't see me checking my phone but I choose not to...I'd probably intimidate my co-workers with my spandex, Nike Pro Shorts outlining huge package.

Or the guy that wears a different NBA muscle shirt everyday exposing his gold chains? I see that very often. Or the guy that has those real cheap Walmart wafer thin, thread bare white tank tops with gravy and cherry kool aid stains on them paired with a pair of very baggy jogging pants that say FUBU on the back?

Definitely "Gallon of water".

I once seen a lad carrying a muscle magazine around opened at a certain page so he could follow the posted routine

If someone can't focus on a workout for 1-2 hours without diddling with their cell phone, they are a pathetically owned POS. Leave it in the car.

I don't have a gimmick. My Arnoldesque upper body and super muscular legs and calves do all my talking.
-
I drop a log after every set
-
The only different thing i do, at least these days, is to squat barefoot. I also do donkeys for calves and barefoot also. At least i have the calves to back up.
-
I have my headphones on 11 and I don't talk to anybody.
...I've been at a new gym for a year and a half and haven't struck up a conversation with anybody in that time.

Nothing wrong for utilizing a cell phone in the gym for music, timer, stopwatch etc.
And what difference does it make between sets what you do?
-
DAMN NOT A ONE...
x2 nothing
-
I leave the phone in the car but do pop out a couple of times during workout to check on my investments and stuff.
-
Gimmick?
Earplugs in, no eye contact, do my sets, leave... I do see all those types mentioned above though, and its hysterical...
At 5AM, why are people so wound up and yapping to everyone. No one to talk to at home? I dont get it...
-
Gyms are today's Country Clubs...Only instead of golf the activity is resistance exercises...Country Clubs served up for those who wanted it...social interaction....Same with today's gyms.

My gym gimmick is having big muscles, a lot of strength and a friendly smile.

I would have thought you'd have an "inviting" smile.
-
All of those can be found in my gym lol

I'm the big, angry old man that hates all the new kids and their gay ass skinny sweats and lack of work ethic and etiquette
