Walking around with a gallon of water
Wearing sun glasses

The pic taking is insane. I see it daily. I just stare at people while they do it. Escpecially if im in the background of said pic, as its rude as fuck. No i dont want to be in your picture asshole. Most of the time guys and girls do this without a second thought to who is watching them do it. They dont even care. Its like its normal behavior to them

isnt this more or less what twink personal trainers do during their own workouts?

The Bro talk in the locker room has me looking for my ear buds real quick...
Standing in front of the dumbell rack while doing a set.
Doing pull ups between a guys sets of squats or whatnot on the rack. Fuck off with that shit, plenty of places to do them, stay away from me as you disturb my bubble.
Asking me for a spot when I wear my cap low and have earbuds.
Guys (mostly hip hop assholes...) at one point were playing their music off their phones and that is such a fuck head thing to do, I was trying to see how I could step on or kick the device while making me look innocent, lol!
Bringing a towel but not using it on the machines.
Not putting back the weights.
Chicken leg morons walking around like they got 32 inch thighs. Bitch please...
checking the abs in the mirror between sets, especially if you're a twink.

Lol at bro talk. Yep its cringe worthy

I just wish you could hear how annoying French people do it here. Oh fuck... But the number of times you hear the word "bro" or "le gros" is just mind boggling.

I worked out at a Planet Fitness the other night. Maybe one guy in decent shape... the rest were those really soft early-stage permabulkers, throwing around 45s for standing reverse flies, blowing shoulders out left and right. I'm leaner than virtually everyone in there and I am hardly shredded. Not a chest striation to be seen. I'm the only one with decent calves, and surely the only one with legs at all. Everyone getting into those "Pumps wars" in front of the weight rack and mirror, doing front raises and bicep curls to outdo the guy next to them. One redneck dude who was like 5'5'' was doing pulldowns with the entire stack and was leaning parallel to the floor to get the damn thing up. Bunch of weekend warriors on the treadmills, gay fucking music playing. No judgement of peace.

Fuck I find that movement so dumb. I see "trainers" having female clients do them all the time. Total waste of precious gym time/energy when there is much better stuff one could be doing.
I often make it a point to get between them and the rack. It ruins their set (not that it was gonna "work" anyway and my way of silently saying "fuck you" to these twats.
-
Dancing,shadow boxing,talking loud on cellphone,dropping weights,banging dumbbells together on presses,grunting on every rep of every set,counting out reps,etc...
-
Putting smaller plates over 20s on the weight tree.
Or stacking them so you can't get the twenties off without pulling the ones above off with them.

We have a fat eastern European guy who supersets every session but takes up three machines/stations at once, curls in the squat rack. Annoying ccunt.
-
Talking.
Staring. Especially by those who think there is a "lifting contest" going on
Lifting RIGHT in front of the rack/mirror.
Not re-racking weights.
Using 10 pieces of equipment during peak hours.
Hebrew music without headphones
Homemade Cut off shirts
Acting like a badass (ILS)
Getting excited over your "max" bench, when clearly your spotter was the one putting forth the most effort
Singing during cardio
Old men who tell you how their body USED to look
Flip Flops, just go fuckin' barefoot
Selfies, Facebook, social media, or just cell phones in general
THROWING DUMBBELLS
Color Coordinated Outfits, Gym Fashion, Gloves

Anyone..... but especially white guys in their 40's with long hair hip-hopping back and forth in the gym while rapping/singing out loud to what's playin on their headphones. There was a guy doing it yesterday at 24....even throwin out the N-bombs out loud as he bounced to da beat. SMFH. I just wanted a black dude to be around and see/hear him walk by, and be like WTF while proceeding to beat him down.

Got a clown just like that at my gym also. Would love to drill his stupid face in the ground for being such an attention whore.
-
people actually wear sunglasses at the gym? wtf
Seen it plenty of times, but never understand it.
I think the best thing I have seen is a guy that would take a bandana he wore into the gym and between sets as a headband.......he then proceeded to pull it over his eyes and do standing dumbell shoulder presses while blindfolded. After he would set the weight down, he would go through a series of martial art and tai chi type moves while wearing it. Ya can't make up shit like that!

Ahhh....the "used to be's". I used to just roll my eyes when I was younger, and would get caught into their trap and be stuck there trying to play along and be polite. I couldn't walk away, and be a dick cuz I worked there. I realize now that I'm in my 40's and trying to get back into it, that everyone slips and starts to reminisce a bit. The difference is that I catch myself doing it, and just say well I guess I need to get to my next set now and walk off ashamed of myself. At least I take solace when someone I knew back when comes in that could vouch for me. lol This gettin older stuff is for the birds man!
P.S.-the only thing worse for footwear in the gym than flip-flops is those stupid ass toe shoes. Man, those creep out for some reason!

My thoughts:
Better than wearing a sleeveless shirt, wear no shirt at all. :o
Rather than yelling with every rep, folks should sing Hallelujah! with each successful rep. ;D
If you really want to show off your lats, hold your arms over your head while spinning around every so often so folks get the full impact from all sides. :-*
I prefer to ask others to take my picture or better yet a video....especially when I am shirtless, holding my arms over my head and singing Hallelujah. :-* :-*
Forget the jug of water and either walk around with a gallon of Vodka martinis and a pocket full of green olives or skip to the drinking fountain between each and every set, leaving your sweaty towel on the equipment to save your place until you get back. ::)
I've found wearing either swimming goggles or the kind you wear when you tan is better than wearing sunglasses. Sometimes wearing a monocle is more appropriate. 8)
If you must wear street clothes, wear them in the Sauna. :D
Most of all, don't go to the gym to lift and get fit, go to have fun while chatting it up with everyone you can.....especially when you are naked in the locker room. Folks really love that. :P
I'm being serious....really.

kind of a stupid question but has Ireland got less black people than other countries? I picture lots of angry very pale men beating each other up while not dropping their beers

Yep mine too. Does he wear tights under his shorts?

There was a democrat in my gym ( you guys call them Hebrews), but he would set up a stereo system , I mean, his phone would come out, he would plug two 15 inch speakers in it then start blasting rap music. I could not believe the nerve. I'm jealous that blacks don't get embarrassed, I think it's cause they just don't know any better ( not racist!, it's a fact that 70 % of blacks are born out of wedlock so they don't have parents teaching them right from wrong)...

Lmao! Where was this? I am going from a home gym to a super posh gym in Boston's financial district. I am hoping to never have to see one of these stereotypes ever.
-

Lol
douchebag:
Someone who has surpassed the levels of jerk and asshole, however not yet reached fuck'r or motherfuck'r.
Not to be confused with douche.

It was in Louisiana, few years ago before iPhones otherwise I would have filmed it cause it was so hard to believe!

Fat kid doing flat chest press with 40s throwing them down after each "set," having his friend spot him like he is repping the 200s. Get with the program!

Bring your camera phone a couple of times and whenever someone takes their picture, take their picture taking the picture. I bet they stop.

checking the abs in the mirror between sets, especially if you're a twink.
Seriously, this is some fucked up bullshit homo nonsense that I'm encountering more often.
Whoever does this, please fucking kill yourselves.
I actually had a guy bring his laptop with speakers to the gym while watching a training video. Wtf?
Assholes that take like three pairs of dumbells and have them all around their bench while working on several other machines. just fuck off already.

I recall a fellow from my youth. He'd bring in yellowing photos of himself from decades ago of how he used to look. I then and there vowed never to be that person.

That's some bullshit the gym should address. You don't impose your horrible musical taste on fellow members, I'd be forced to complain.

These are some of the many reasons I have slowly built up enough equipment to train at home. At some point it just becomes too much. People say stay focused on your training and dont get distracted, but some of the stuff in gyms now is so ridiculous you cant help but be distracted.

Yeh guess the race of 99% of those who do it.

Masturbating in the shower.
Not cool, bro.

People using like 10 pairs of dumbells at the same time.
The kunt would litteraly get all the dumbells from 6 to 14kg put them around his bench and do curls or lateral raises with drop sets ???
I remember i picked up one dumbell off the floor and heard some kid curling saying "scuze me im using that !" OMG i was THIS close to split his skull with the damn dumbell
i just threw it at him
People using a bench to put his phone/bottle/towel on it but not actually using the bench to exercise.
Bro talk yeah OMG thank god for earbud

'Bro talk in the locker room' used to be called 'human interaction' and was a very enjoyable pastime back in the day.

That's pretty much spot on. They only eat potatoes, and are about 99% ginger too.

There was two guys like that at the gym a few days ago. I took nearly ALL the existing dumbbells and put them around me until there was hardly anything on that particular rack except the girly weights. Think either of those two fags clued in? Brain dead.

All while wearing super tight yoga pants.

Guys wearing jeans and doing arms every workout.
my gym has one guy combs his hair non stop in the gym mirrors, not even in the locker room.

bring a novel to the gym and spend 10 minutes reading between sets of bench press when the gym is packed and only has 3 benches.

"Train" naturally.

This requires intervention, especially when a phone is involved. I won't move until he does: "Almost done?" "Hey, how much more you got?" "Can I work in, bro?"
Fuck this guy, he needs to be made uncomfortable.
-
Saw some D-bag tonight. Was getting all psyched up to chest press the 75s in front of the rack. And this was all he did the entire time I was there. He never left, and threw the weights down each and every time.
-
Putting smaller plates over 20s on the weight tree.
Or stacking them so you can't get the twenties off without pulling the ones above off with them.
THIS! Some bellends even put 25kg in middle of tree thus blocking anything behind, below and above. Children in playschools can figure out square peg square hole and the size of blocks but half the people in the gym are too fucking retarded or lazy to put weights back right.
People filling leg press, barbell or similar with 5kg plates and not removing them (and killing themselves) after they finish on machine.

Agreed.

I got guys taking shoes off or wearing the flat shoes for deadlifts that never go past 185 pounds. also these people put the rubber weights on the bar so 135 actually looks like 225 because the weights are so thick, they also use them to do straight bar curls and thats usually when the camera comes out. I had a guy ask me to take a pic of him for facebook, I am embarrased to say i did take the pic and when he looked at it he wanted a retake, two times! (true story)
