What's with the obligatory baseball cap while working out?

[Nether Animal]

At the gym, I pretty much avoid all younger guys wearing caps that aren't my age or older. Seems like they get the hint pretty well and steer clear.

Not all guys wearing hats to work out are douchebags, but all douchebags wear hats while working out.

When my hair gets too long I'll wear my Make America Great Again hat.

I use a military helmet when training and camo pants. I am super hardcore even though i have never been or will be relevant bodybuilding wise.

It is to cover the bald spot on top of your head.

isn't a kippah meant for that ?

To keep the sweat from running down your face

Unless there is no air-conditioning I've never had sweat running into my eyes or down my face in such an extreme amount that I need to stop it.

MOS nice see you back posting! Why you wear earphones? You dont seem like the type to be a serious and " beast mode " " war mode" " going to battle" while working out. Thought you were a chit chatting laid back workout fella while bringing the gospel in between sets.

Nice to be back posting a bit more!  

I wear the headphones to listen to music.  Some days it's all christian/gospel.  Some days it's Journey.  Some days it's Earth Wind and Fire.   Some days it's John Williams scores.  Music keeps me motivated.   Am I beast mode at war with a stone face LOL?  Not even close.  I'm don't talk much unless someone engages me, but otherwise I get in and get out as quickly as possible.  Yet, I smile.  I'm polite.  I'll crack jokes on occassion.  But mainly there to be less fat and build more muscles.  

Only gospel in between sets is that which pumps out of the headphones!  Gym time is often synonymous with private worship time via music for me.

As far as hats go I'm a cap guy...have been since I was a little kid.  My best friend never wears caps and doesn't understand them....non-cap guys don't get it LOL.

In fact, all my guy friends are non-cap guys....I'm the only cap guy.  Funny thing is at some point every single one of their wives has told them, "I wish you would wear caps like that sometimes....it looks good on men."

I don't understand the new skinny tapered sweatpant/athletic pants fad amongst all the guys....emphasizes even more so the absolute lack of thighs and calves....oh well to each their own.  Those pants just SCREAM "I don't have leg day."

Regular caps or the ones that cover half the ears and have the gold sticker on it which screams "Look I got a new hat " 

LOL

So you are that scary looking they "steer clear"? 

Think the gym bag thing or 5% gallon jugs is far more vexing then hats. I think keyboard warriors calling people douchebags need to take stock of their own lives and not worry what others do.

what's with the hoods over the head then? i see a couple of ''warriors'' practicing this, they must've seen their BB hero on youtube do this

watch battle for the olympia 98, tell me that Mr. Levrone doesn't look cool as fuck with the hoodie while benching 500

of course he's the only one that can pull it off, every other guy looks silly

Ill wear a hood sometimes. Only possible during a couple months a year since it's120° in the summer here.... Usually only when hitting chest though for whatever reason. Helps me focus, like blinders on a horse.

I always train in shorts.   Probably been 20 years since I wore sweatpants at the gym. 

[CalvinH]

Shorts,t-shirt, and baseball hat.



...that's how I go to war!

Great post MOS. Always interesting and fun to get some "real life details" from other posters.
Keep on trucking and keep spreading the news bro. You are blesssd to have the oppertunity to do so (christian wife and christian surroundings). Not everybody has that opportunity / freedom. God bless.
