Title: People that snapchat in the gym
Post by: 240 is Back on June 04, 2016, 08:17:37 PM
It's one thing for a person to slyly snap a selfie while training.   Not the best etiquette, but they're all doing it.   lately the gym seems to be filled with people recording a series of 10-second videos, quickly writing a note on them, then recording another.  Upload immediately, and repeat.  Usually they're in the middle of a set while doing it, as they have to hold down the button to keep recording.   Then the redo's, the watching and reviews.  It's way more intensive than just snapping a selfie.

Is this happening in your gym as well?

I just ignore it and do my own thing.

Fuck em.  ;)

Who needs a gym?  Go do a real workout outside and you won't have to deal with this.

It's basically like instagram when it first started and it'll fade and time and something new will pop up. You are a get bigger and have a better physique than Markus Ruhl, so, they'll get the fuck out of your way. It's no biggie.

I'm the only one in my gym, so no I don't see it. I do run into this twink who walks around with ILS and doesn't rack his weights properly.

Anyone who brings their phone to the gym and plays with it in between sets is a fucking imbecile.  Most of the cell phone addicted morons at my gym look like they never touched a weight in their lives.

I've recorded myself before to check my form. I work out alone so it's useful.

getting rid of facebook,and almost every other social media app was life changing for me. wish my wife would get on board but women (millenials) seem to have a hard time being non relevant. even though they are not relevant in the slightest, social media gives them the impression what they are doing, actually matters. no one gives a fuck, its all a game of envy. disease of the mind. i have my own issues, but getting rid of FB and all that shit really helps. however, i have lost friends over it. if your not into that scene, your basically kicked out of thr club. oh well, for the better

I always lol at those guys. Showing off their "gains" when they weigh like 150 lbs and have been going to the gym for years.

I use my phone to write down my sets and reps.

I have my exercises written down in notes beforehand and then just put in the numbers.

And sometimes scroll back to earlier workouts to check whether I'm on track.

I think instagram is a great place to get all new bodybuilding updates from every pro! Instagram from average joe suck but thats why most people dont post anymore, bcz noone gives a shit. Survival of the fittest. Same for Fb. I did some likes for stuff im intressted in, and thats it. I look I read like my personal newspaper.

My music is on the phone.  Plus like to Getbig for inspiration on the cardio machines.  Be careful you don't drop it in the toilet though.
