behind neck presses

today, there was a guy in the gym training chest right next to the rack where i trained legs.
he walked around all pumpep up, imaginary monster lat, "tuff" stare, the usual stuff.
so while i was in the middle of a set of squats he walks past me in a way where i had to move out of his way wight the bar on my neck.
i did say a think.
next set, he does the same thing again.
i observe him benchpressing, he used 22olbs wich was bit too much for him and he had worse form/range than dana lyn bailyes.hed unrack it, the bar would start to go unbalanced and hed barely balance it out and then-i swear im not exagerating-do a 1inch movement rep, hold on lock and then do the same again.
btw during his reps hed lift up his legs all the way up,like a homosexual who is about to receive an anal hammering.
between sets the idiot would do some stretching execrices and scream in the process.
i did a last set of light squats, him looking at the weight on my bar in a condescending way.
then, he puts 3 plates on his bar(310lbs) and motivates himself in a way , youd think its for a world record attempt.
he unlocks it and tries a full rep with the bar simply coming down to his chest, it was simply too much.
now hes squirming under the bar and can barely bring out a tone from the weight on his ribcage.
i simply sat down and told him i cant help him bc my legs are tired
and left him like that until some other ppl came along to help removing the bar.
;D
Exactly why I rarely give any credence to numbers claims from ... well, almost anybody. Yeah, he benched 450 pounds! Meanwhile it was actually 275 or some shit.

Useless exercises because "trainers" (hahahahaha :-X) told them so.....
- Pullovers
- Kickbacks
- Pecdeck
- and so on.......

A new epidemic at my gym = guys putting a million Plates on the leg press, doing 1/8 th of a rep, then leaving.

Old news in my neck of the woods.
Dudes put no fewer than 12 or 15 plates on each side and then bang out several two-inch brutalizers, all the while grunting and moaning like retards. If you ever see them doing squats, they have 185 on and are getting crushed doing half reps for eight.
-
craziest thing i've ever seen in my gym is people working out. I mean we all know the gym is a hangout spot for guys to converse.

Worst thing, by far, is the various/random EXERCISE BALL balancers and the WHACKO exercises they come up with... I LOVE it when they fall- or better, wipe out on the floor!!!! ;D
-
expect the unexpected in a gym, just when i thought ive seen it all someone always comes up with something even more insane ??? ive seen more insane/retarded things in gyms over the years it is unreal

Witnessed a guy squatting on the smith machine a couple months ago only to collaspe tearing both his quads. Same guy had a heart attack a couple of years ago, thinking he should find another hobby besides juicing and lifting. :-\

a couple of twinks come to the gym I go to and do their version of cross-fit bs; they will sometimes even dress alike
the part that makes me laugh hard every time is when they do laps (their is an indoor loop that goes around the perimeter of the main gym) running sideways, grapevines and even backwards
-
oh - and what is it with all the lazy bitches taking dumbbells and barbells to every isolated corner to do some fucking "toning" girl exercises and then leaving them all over the place
The tren temper is about to kick in...
-
The men who come in a do the stepup bullshit and other assorted womens movements annoy and sicken me.
-
I don't like when trainers finish watching a ronnie coleman video and then all of their clients are doing lunges all around the gym like there is nobody else there but them.
I don't like people who do leg presses on the smith machine with the help of 3 people because they think its some sort of vertical leg press.
-
oh, what about this, using the cable crossover machine for shrugs ::)
using the cable crossover for lat pulldowns.
using cablecrosover for modified calves exercise(yes i seen it with own eyes)
I'll do those... So what?
-
Those girls who "like to keep the body guessing."

looks like a common occurence in that gym nobody seems to pay it much mind. ;D
-
that dude had no business messing with 315 ::) he prolly cant get 225 for a rep by himself never mind 315. if ya cant get at least 6 to 8 good reps by yourself the weights to damn heavy, just like squats, if you cant go rock bottom the weights to heavy. old school is still king

Dude wearing weightlifting gloves while doing low intensity, steady state cardio, and nothing else.
Gayer than a "fee only" financial planner.

Brutal ownage of a local TV personality in the gym!!

there's this clown who does local sports radio at my gym, 6'0" 170lbs. around 30 years old, reaaly arrogant, sarcastic little bitch, anyways he's in the gym doing dumbbell inclines with the 60's for his heaviest set and i'm training legs and i'm between sets and i say, "60 pound dumbbells, YOU'RE A BEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" hahahahaha, i'm gonna keep making fun of him until he has a meltdown.

There's a guy who comes in a couple times a week who's probably in his mid-late 50's. Drives one of those Hemi Chargers (black) and parks on an angle in front taking up 3 spots. Looks like he could've been a defensive tackle "back in the day" but now is just a big, fat, barrel chested lug with robin legs. Probably runs about 370#. First thing he does as he charges into the gym, with no regard of who or what is in his way, is to flap his arms around like a whirly-bird 90 miles an hour. Then he flat benches, again, about 90 miles an hour. Goes to the hammer-strength chest and pumps that out 90 miles an hour. Then he'll either his bis or tris (1/4 reps), slamming the weights each set. That's it.
I feel like keying his car every time I see it in the parking lot. >:(
-
ah yes, i remember now, there was one guy who layed on the floor under the smith machine and used it for leg presses ::)
Haha.
Classic.

dont you guys have enough money to afford a home and a basement where to put your own home gym?
It is statistically impossible to avoid retards in a public gym, too many of them.

Rest for 10-20 mins while doing dumbbell rows with 65 pounds.
-
Not give me blow jobs.
-
the list is endless: in a nutshell, its dipshits trying to be bad asses. this includes
hats turned to one side or the other
wifebeaters / under armor
lifting too much weight with poor form / partial ROM
sweating like a ni.ggar on court day all over the equipment
improper use of equip., ie, curls in squat rack
screaming: "lift it homey" too loud considering its only 85 lbs

exactly thats why people love the bench press great excersise for showing off getting the spotter to yank the weight off.. he wouldnt try that with dumbells because he probably couldnt get them in place plus its hard to get a spotter to do the work for you with dumbells....
a lot of guys are morons.. basically ego all ego
-
A number of things that are totally "normal" here in Japan:
One spoonful of creatine after each set.
Using lifting straps on ALL exercises, even bench press or warm-up sets.
Using a weightlifting belt ALL the time. (also on bench press, triceps cable push-downs etc)
throwing the weight around or doing 1 inch reps with way too much weight.
buying your protein in the gym shop (125$$ for 1.5kg whey concentrate) instead of buying on the internet (100$ for 10kg)

He only stretched his left pec in the vid... If he would've stretched the right pec as well, this whole snafu wouldn't have happened.. BOOM problem solved :D

there is a jackass who puts on 225lbs and takes it off the olympic bench press rack and goes down ike 1-2 inches and brings it back up. he does it for 4-5 reps 4-5 sets maybe goes down a few inches and comes back up! I just do not get how that would benefit him! He shoud just take a plate off and bench 135lbs but actually do a set where he touches his chest and uses full range of motion. He is too old to get mad at though. he has to be late 40's. Also guys who you see leave the shitter and do not wash there hands and go ift free weights. It's just nasty! I cannot believe guys in there 20's and 30's take a shit or piss and dont wash there hands and then touch the free weights! I know most people wouldn't catch this and think much of it but it makes me sick!Germ city!

Guy at my gym does 1/3 rep bench/incline/decline, then keeps complaining to anyone who will listen about how bad his shoulder hurts, like a knife cutting into it. Goes up to 225+ but can't do a real rep.
I got caught by him about 2 months ago. Told him the first thing he needs to do was stop all pressing movements and rest it. He said he didn't want to "lose it".
Didn't see him for six weeks, and he was back doing the exact same shit, except he grabbed a foam roller and rolled his shoulder against a machine once or twice.

bad habits are hard to break in the gym, i was fortunate enough to train at a great gym(diamond gym) when i started out and those guys helped me and showed me proper form

from 81-till 2005 or so, yeah i used to train at the same time as johnnie morant and kemper in the early morning. lol, morant would have trouble getting up in the morning and kemper would go to johnnies house and drag him outta bed and bring him to the gym. nick lavitola, guy(duke)duccasse, carla dunlop(mrs olympia), lucho, derrick whitsett(pro), jason arntz(pro) beau matlock(top amature) sean jones(jersey state champ) and a bunch others all trained there through the years. i miss those days

i swear old guys can be more annoying than stupid high school kids
hard to explain but there is old balding skinny fat moron who uses the leg press machine..not the sled kind..the one where you can push unilaterally...well he loads up the leg press with 4 plates and proceeds to just extend his legs and slam the weight and all you can hear is
BOOM
BOOM
BOOM
i look over at him and think...really stimulating those legs there moses ::) ::)
-
Great!
Gaspari ?
i saw him afew times, he started going to golds in milltown mostly around 82 or so. saw wrestlers ricky steamboat and mr wonderful paul orndorff walk in one morning and i was like holy shit, i was a wrestling fan at that time and it was really cool.saw yates training chest there one morning, he was in jersey guestposing at kempers nj state show.
-
On a side note people who train produce dopamine and serotonin which makes them feel somewhat superior and euphoric out of the blue, thinking their shit doesnt stink , grossly overestimating the way they look etc, hence explaining the stupid behaviors of most people in a public gym.

I got the best one...guy lays on the floor, head by the wall, arms outstretched to each side, flips his legs up over his head and puts his feet on the wall, then does db curls while laying there. Gotta see it to believe it. :D

Guys we used to hang out with pinched some girl in the ass.....her boyfriend, who's benching, sees it and throws a 30 lbs dumbbell in his direction. He misses but hits the trainer/gym owner in the knees. He starts yelling and throws up. The pincher flees before the boyfriend can attack him, falling from the stairs and breaking his nose...
And all this in under 15 secs.

I like the guys who will put up a 20lbs bar on their shoulders and then twist their upprer back super fast side to side and think they will get great abs instead of just a spine injury.
Today also, a favorite in gyms around the world, the lower back barbell curl. Lock your elbows in 90 degree angle and work that back like you fuck your ugly wife.

Man i have to tell you guys about this IDIOT that trains at the West Knoxville RUSH....he is about 6'2" maybe 190-195...dude and his girl both hardly wear any clothes, he wears RIPPED string tanks showing his massive 32" chest..the girl is about 6' as well and her shorts BARELY cover her jelly roll ass everyday...they kiss in between EVERY f-in set. anyways.....this guy tries to do about twice as much on EVERY excercise possible...well last week he tried to incline bench 315 lbs and I swear guys he was STANDING up his back was arched so much...he moved the weight about 2" and racked it and then proceeds to head butt, no f-in lie, Head butt the lat pulldown machine right next to him like he had done something...
He ALWAYS tries to follow the biggest guy in the gym around (whoever it may be at the times he is there) and do the same weight that they do. He is the funniest and dumbest guy i have ever seen in my 15 years of training here locally.....
-
Fat guys who walk around with ils then leave puddles of sweat on the equipment really used to get my goat.
-
Polish guys at the gym who wear 'Muay Thai' shorts and give everyone their tough-guy glares.
Polish guys who keep talking to each other across the gym and everyone has to hear them.

This dude who looks like Fred Sanford's son, he looks like he bought his outfit from a 1994 NPC Wear catalog, complete with Lee Haney head and wristbands. He has headphones on so he doesn't realize that when he is doing lat pulldowns with 50 pounds---He makes a sound like he taking the largest shit on earth.
Even when he's curling 30 pounds, he makes the same sound. Then there is the fat guy who wants to talk for 2.5 hours, and does 15 minutes of light lifting, and then leaves.

dude!! Sounds like this old guy that used to train at my gym in 2001, he came in EXACTLY at 5:30 am everyday within a min, 5:31-5:29 etc....i swear....he would go to the locker room, come out and do 3 sets of flat bench with 135 and then get changed and leave...he literally did this 3 times a week

I hate when married couples come into the gym, make videos showing improper form and then take a bunch of pictures making duck faces.

How about when the trainer measures the client's muscles in the restroom? Calling out "Mr. Biceps," and "Let's see how big Mr. Deltoids are today."
That was Gus, the 60-70 year-old trainer.

This old head, his favorite color must be red, because the whole outfit is read and white, and he drives a red mustang GT500...
He walked in one day, looked around, and then left.

This video reminds me of a deadlift set I did a couple years ago, had a very thin bar, felt funny, looked flimsy, nevertheless it was 45lb olympic bar, started 1 plate, 2, 3, 4,5, plates, no problem, then I put 6 plates and a 25 on each side, took it off the rack, took 2 steps backwards, first rep hit the floor, came back up no problem, second rep, half way up a damn plate and a 25 flies off one side, then 2 plates and a 25 fly off the other, then I dropped it and my 2 friends and I nearly pissed our pants in laughter. They fell off cause the bar was bending like crazy and the plates slid off both ends at the same time, now when I deadlift I make sure the bars I use our the thick ones.

This morning I saw three twinks presumably doing a Cross-Fit "WOD", they were doing a brutal giant set of squats with the bar, kipping pullups ( ::)), "burpees" ( ::)), and savage incline press with the 30-lb DBs as the "finisher". After finishing they slandered their fourth friend who skipped this workout because he thought it was too hard.

Those guys have to be able to deal with pretty brutal conditions, like running for miles with 80+ lbs of gear, pick up and carry zodiacs that weigh 300 lbs dry, add water, engine, rucks, rifles and ammo, etc. (Obviously they do this as a team)
They're the elite of the US military. Id be pretty disillusioned if he couldnt dead 225, as I could do that for reps graduating from boot camp @ 204 after losing 20 lbs of muscle and doing nothing but bodyweight excersizes and running.

Doing a shitload of burpees is hard...in our gym we called them "sugar cookies" because the guy who trained our trainer was ex military. w and when they did them on the beach in SC his DI would laugh at them and say they looked like a bunch of sugar cookies...
Try doing burpees off the side of a heavy bag...instead of jumping you scoop the bag and shoulder it. It sucks....
-
Man,hardly anybody knows how to train these days.........wish I had a fucking time machine. :(
-
BTW...has anyone actually ever seen a retard in the gym? I have..it's not pretty.
-
from 81-till 2005 or so, yeah i used to train at the same time as johnnie morant and kemper in the early morning. lol, morant would have trouble getting up in the morning and kemper would go to johnnies house and drag him outta bed and bring him to the gym. nick lavitola, guy(duke)duccasse, carla dunlop(mrs olympia), lucho, derrick whitsett(pro), jason arntz(pro) beau matlock(top amature) sean jones(jersey state champ) and a bunch others all trained there through the years. i miss those days
I`m jealous bro! :(
I think I may have asked you already but do you know Dwayne Broadway,Cephus Bacon,and David Wilson?

Cephus Bacon is a great name.

Useless exercises because "trainers" (hahahahaha :-X) told them so.....
- Pullovers
- Kickbacks
- Pecdeck
- and so on.......
Disagree with all three, if performed correctly.

I agree. They are good exercises, especially pullovers using an old-school nautilus machine.

The college gym when I was an undergrad had one of these, fantastic machine.

I do all three exercises from time to time. Maybe if I was a powerlifter I might view them as useless.... but I'm not one and don't really know exactly how they train nor am I interested in finding out.
-

Agreed... I don't do pullovers myself, but the others, most definitely.

I had one when young also.
The only thing that kinda compares for me are standing pullovers with a cable.
Dumbbell pullovers not so much.

Nope,don`t remember Jackson,but I did the NABBA Nats last year and competed with a guy called M. J. but he was pretty young.
Dwayne and Wilson........two really good guys as is Bacon.

My cousins boyfriend did time with a dude named Shadrack Bumstead........no lie bro! :D
-
things i saw today:
1.) 2 dudes sit on the cardio machines and talking for at least 30 mins, because they were there my whole cardio workout.
2.) dude doing leg press and holding a fucking cellphone to his head the whole time.
3.) Tappoutter that took off his shoes to used the punching bag. :-\

Be honest.... they were still lifting more than you :-\
-
We had this guy who fancied himself to be an MMA fighter and he would start doing these katas on the crowded gym floor and annoying the fuck out of everybody. Best thing the gym did was take down the heavy bags, haven't seen him since.

A gal that used to "oil up" before she lifts.

the retard of the day for me today goes to some full of herself girl in the gym.
she did the stuff on the swiss ball and some exercises i never seen before in now 15 years on training.
its exercises which i couldnt tell for what muscle theyd be good.
one example is standing at cable crossover,back towards the tower, elbows firlmy at body, forearm straight out, like holding a pistol and then move the hand to the bellybutton.
maybe its a special movement to improve some kitchen skills in private life, ive never seen anything like it before.
which part of switzerland are you in? the french part, german part, or italian part?
-

How about a guy on the vertical squat using his cellphone as a radio, and placing it on a flat place of the rack---then going to legcurl machine and again placing the said cellphone on the machine and using it as a radio for all to hear

No, fat guy who listens to crappy alternative music/electronica. There is a reason why headphones/earbuds were invented.

Last time I "saw her", she was complaining he doesn't tip...

a guy used to come into the gym and just do push ups and free hand squats, then split. i asked him does he lift weights at all and he said weights are bad for the joints ::)

which is why so many professional bbers become really small after they stop lifting. Not because of the lack of drugs, but because of bad joints. Trust me on this one. I read it in Flex Magazine.

Pushups are underrated in my opinion. There are so many variations.

x2.
You can work tons of muscles with different hand variation pushups.
I think most bodyweight excersices are underrated.
Ive never been as sore as some of the bodyweight only workouts Ive done.
-

im not knocking push ups or any bodyweight exercises cause i think they are good, i just dont see why a person would pay a gym membership and drive to the gym when they could do them things at home. if im paying for a gym membership and taking the time driving there im going to use every possible peice of equipment i can, providing its a good peice. if i was that dude id just buy 1 of those pull up-dip combo peices you can put in the basement or garage, there only about 125$ or so and u can do push ups,chins,abs,dips ect

Yeah, its pretty dumb to have a gym membership so you can come in and do pushups.

Have a guy in my gym the does hump the ground pushups, his upper body hardly moves but he slams his pelvis forward like he's getting some.
-
How about guys that train and don't exert themself. You know the guy. I saw two guys alternating using the tricep pushdown bar. They talked to each other every rep and didn't miss a beat. I had to question why they would even bother going to the gym.
-
Some twinkletoes texting between every set of his massive 45# barbell curls and 35# skullcrushers, best part is he had only one sleeve rolled up exposing his monster 13" arms.

Maybe he's just masturbating....

He also does this move with the cable machine that looks like John Travolta dancing with a cable in his hand and he only uses the top plate so the cable flies up and goes slack then slams back doen. Dude does some off the wall stuff, I gotta get a video of his hanging leg raises....lol. ;D
