In college I used to work at the college gym and saw the dumbest fuck incident.  A guy wearing thong flip flops was doing bench. he had two plates a side.  So he went to unload it and took the two plates off of the left side leaving it bare as he walked around to the right side the bar started to tip over, he ran to stop it but didn't get there in time before the 45 plate slipped off and landed square on his big toe.  It was sad.  The thing looked flat. I turned black and swole twice its size.  The guys was crying like a little girl.  Too funny.

Ironically enough, "flip flops" are also referred to as "thongs" in many parts of the world.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that if your gym has people in flip-flops to begin with, your gym probably sucks.

There's an oriental young kid who trains at my gym.  He trains with the trainer, wears thong flip flops when he trains PLUS a fur hat?!  Also literally looks like a refugee camp victim as he is so skinny.  However the trainer their is proud with a lot of work he got his arms from 7.5 inches up to 9" "no joke."

It's the only think that's possible with their cankles and swollen trotters.

I'm glad the general consensus is that flip-flops are all the way gay.

I wouldn't be caught dead in a pair full stop, let alone in the gym.

You get more feedback barefooted. I wouldn't wear flip-flops to the gym but do squats and deads in socks.

WTF.........as if a gym would let you workout in "flip flops".

That's one of the few rules we have at my gym.........must wear proper, closed in foot wear.

Guy with flip-flops would be very confident I think.

Why is that? I wear "flip flops" (though here in Aus, we call them thongs) all the time. In summer i practically live in them.

Same here. Even the college gym never allowed flipflops for males or females.

Flip flops are an invitation for man-to-man anal sex as far as i'm concerned. I'm tempted to view Aus differently, but i have to stick by my guns.
