Title: Ab-shooters in the gym.
Post by: Meso_z on August 02, 2011, 06:28:33 AM
You can usually find them in the weight room doing their brutal "side bends" workouts with a dumbell and other fancy ab exersices, hitting ab shots in between with their blurry abs and pinching each others lower ab fat to "estimate the bf%"

The fat triceps shooter is another classic gym character.

No reason to "pose" at gym unless you're a pro bb.

I've got a "leg shooter" in my gym - after every workout he retires to the changing rooms where he drops his pants and proceeds to "flex" his brutal 23in quads at himself in the mirror. He even does it on days he doesn't work legs. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen him train legs - it's very strange.

I know that guy, I havnt seen him train either.Usually he walks in to the changing rooms, drops his pants, walks in to a cubicle and some tinytit called Jason follows him in then the door shuts, its very strange.

Even then you can do it in the lockerroom.

gh15 wrote in his bible:


ALWAYS FLEX IN FRONT OF THE MIRROR, no matter what others think of you.

this is a pm question ill answer here so many can benefit from it.

1) bigger arms is more a matter of training than a matter of calories.

2) the less exercises you will do the bigger your arms will get.

3) the more exercises of the "less exercises" done correctly, the bigger your arms will continue to get.

4) work heavy but only as heavy as you can go correctly! work to failure! it might be 12 reps or 9 reps or 6 reps as long as muscle fails.

5) 2 sets each exercise/ 3exercises bicep ans 3exercises triceps. all 6 done in the same workout session.

6) i suggest following routine: monday-arms/tuesday-legs/wed off/thursday-back/friday-chest and shoulders/ sat-sun off

7) training should never be longer than 50-60 min (including warm up and or ab work)

8) high intensity

9) i find machine work to be better when stuck. combine machines and free weights.

10) exercises are all good and have their place as long as you do them right!

11) always flex in the mirror no matter what others think of you.

*if hormones are being used and/or arms are already 20 inches,, the strategy can be changed some (weights/sets) i would still keep it more or less the same. SIMPLICITY is the word.

When I was 16 or so a guy at my gym had a big upper body, but never worked his legs. He always wore those baggy pants. Once I saw his bare legs in the dressing room, and I lost all the respect I had for him. He looked ridiculous.
I remember he told us he never worked his legs because they "got trained enough from playing soccer", yea right.

Better no muscle than this kind of development.

Didn't gh15 say "you should always flex in the mirror, no matter what others think".

I also remember hearing years ago during the 1993 Mr. O comentary, Jim Quinn stating that Flex Wheeler's body fat had been measured at 0.0%,the lowest ever recorded at golds gym.

We have a few ab-shooters and there was this Greek guy who trained at my gym & use to compete. Whenever he competed he'd go park in the sauna and then come out buck naked (besides flip flops) and proceed to do his whole posing routine in front of the mirror, in the middle of the locker room. We also have this guy who blow dries his balls with his own personal blow-dryer, not sure what you call that. Some crazy shit goes down at our gym!  ;D
