gym phone wankers

[local hero]

tuther day i was left dumbstruck as a young lad did 15 mins of his 'workout' while on the phone.... one arm cable crossover curls, switching arms to carry on chatting, single arm preacher machine etc etc... needless to say he looked like shit, can you realy not go half an hr without texting,gay-sexting,facebooking etc when in the gym anymore?

There was one woman who came down to our apartment gym a few days ago and from the time she got there she didn't shut up on her phone while "using" the treadmill.

She was walking at a snails pace  the whole time and the conversation was dripping in valley girl type attitude, "No waaaayyyy. For surreeee", being loud as fuck. I didn't have my headphones in at the time cause they stopped working so I couldn't avoid hearing it.

After.my workout I came up her, ( she was still talking on her phone), and told her how much I enjoyed listening to her conversation from across the gym floor, clear as day the whole traning session.

She looked at me like I had 3 heads and said I didn't have to be so rude about it.

I didn't have to be so rude. Me.


Lol , fuck this generation of slacker shit stains.

Seeing this more and more often. People talking on the phone the entire workout. Its like they are scared to be alone. Or just completely uncomfortable with themselves.

You ever see anyone bring a laptop to the gym and listen to a training DVD full blast on it while working out? Lol I have.

Or bring their phone and listen to music on it full volume without headphones and not even ask if its okay with anyone around them?

That's the next step up the ladder of idiot gym behavior.

sad state of afairs... our gym is a spit n saw dust type place so this type of shit doesnt generally happen

Hoe any good?

I use my phone to write down my sets and reps, but that is all.

[JasonH]

I'm now in my 23rd year of training and can honestly say I have never taken a phone into the gym. The last guy I trained with used to bring his phone in and would be checking his Instagram and Facebook in between sets. Needless to say we don't train together anymore.

He texted me recently asking about dbol and clen - wanted to run them both together because he wanted to "bulk and cut at the same time"

That's how it used to be back in the day for me as well. Not as long as yourself but the premise of not fucking around with mp3, or CD players, phone was the same. Had the best training partners back then too. Now...good luck. Most people are morons.

Check this quote out. Its all you need to know about a persons self discipline and reasoning skills. Bet she looks amazing.

Maria Daigle, 45, a nurse from Metairie, La., said she has every right to use her cellphone during workouts at her club, Elmwood Fitness.

“At a gym, I don’t think people should have to be quiet,” she said. “I don’t see the difference between two people next to each other screaming over the elliptical to hear each other. It’s not the library, and it’s not a bookstore.”


If I trained this bitch, she would be too winded to utter a word.

Vince Goodrums is doing my contest prep strictly through phone consults


So unless I can use the gym phone and take notes im gonna be on the floor being directed to perform Vissy Squatz then I need a play by play for my routine I'm going to break off for PJ when I become a brand ambassador for BS

[Mr Anabolic]

Last week I saw a long bearded boy on the leg press.  He was literally doing the reps (with sissy weight) and texting at the same time.  Generation nothingness personified.

Kids come up to me in the gym and ask training advice.  The first thing I tell them is to leave the phone at home or in the car.  They never comply because they are addicted to their phone and texting.

Half an hour?... they can't go 2 minutes without it.  Cell phones addiction is a disease.

I had a falling out with my younger brother over the same thing, I had to make him keep it in his bag

what i find worse is posers taking pics of themselves in front of the mirror.. annoys me because it´s where the DB rack is. Can´t be bothered to wait until they finish admiring themselves to get a pair of Dumbbells

[The Scott]

This is why I train at 4 or 5 a.m. at the gym or at anytime in home in my garage.  I don't much care for people.  I use headphones at home when listening to music.  I don't have either of my phones with me (work or personal) unless I am on call and they are set to vibrate.

I hate society.  Social media is a social disease.  I recently had a (supposedly) full grown man walk into me at a local mall while he was texting.  I just stood there as I saw him coming, wearing his wife-beater, black pseudo-negro/vato/white-trash black baggies and black socks with red Converse knock-offs.  Resplendent in Mickey Mouse looking tattoos, shaved stubble covering his mutant gourd shaped cranium and fooktard beard made all the more fearsome by the topper of toppers, a unibrow that he could easily use for a front to back comb-over.

He walked right into me.  Fortunately I was ready for the impact of the human version of Comet Nibooboo and had my cane (I am somewhat handicapped, mostly mentally so!) and so this time when immovable object meets unbearably stupid farce, the former wins.   I politely asked him to be the adult his parents most surely wanted him to be and watch where  he was going. 

No apology came out of his gaping maw, just a grunt of "ok". 

If God exists, its time for a flood.

or the people listening to music on their phone who all of a sudden break out into a full dance routine..and better yet the karate dancers punching and kicking around the gym floor, when there is a perfectly good aerobics room not being used.

If she was naked i might let it slide..

It's already happening; usually by Hebrews and their horrible "rap" music

I've even seen some bring those horrible external speakers that you plug into your phone.

He would suck even without the phone doing those gay "exercises".

Maybe he was working with an agency to get funding to support and elderly parent in a nursing home which was taking up a significant amount of time out his personal life..   Since he's been pressed for time, and trying to still get a work out in, he answered some email during a warm up set.


People spend too much time looking at others and drawing the worst possible conclusion.   People need to stop wasting time wondering why/what anyone else is doing and just do their thing.
