Why do you slam weights?

[pumpster]

Saw a guy do that last night in fact.  Working his traps (360lbs + the bar).  Slammed each plate against each other as he loaded the bar (as if to say "count how many 45s I'm using").  Lifted, screamed out at each rep (all 4 of them), threw down the bar, dropped down to the floor on his knees, looked around and then got up and walked away from the rack like he was pissed off at the weights.  And the dude was big.

Since most of it's fake and unecessary, mention it to management if it bothers you.

I like to launch it absolutely as high/far as possible.  Lets all the tiny twats know who is f'n in charge !!!!

F'KN-A RIGHT SHOWSTOPPA!!!!!   The way it should always be!!!   Occassionally after brutal set I'll throw in a loud "FUCK YEAH!!!" and then I'll grab my big junk and hit a most muscular.

I like the way the plates sound when they slam together....

  I never slam my weights, and the only one's I see slamming them are the one's who think pressing the 120's is a feat worthy of the Gods. We have a few of these guys at my gym.
  When I'm done with a set of flat/incline dumbbell presses (between the 140’s and 160’s) I rarely even drop em. I sit up while placing them on my knees (one rolling motion), then I stand up and either place them on the bench (for another set), or rack them. Also, I never have anyone hand me the weight. IMO, if you can’t take it from the rack and get it up by yourself, you not able to truly manipulate that much weight and need to lighten up.

Are you saying you have a lot of cum on your eyes ?

I've also got it so the little chick behind the counter always puts in my CD and hits Iron Man by Sabbath as I start my set.  Yeah, I got it like that.

[gordiano]

Unless you're deadlifting 300+lbs. or racking 400+lbs squats, why would you slam your weights.  I saw this guy the other day who literally threw 135lbs back on the squat rack after doing deadlifts?  Like he was being judged on his dismount. 
Better yet, letting the monster stack of 150lbs come crashing down, after doing seated rows? 
Completely unnecessary.
It's not a church, but some things just make you wonder...why?  Usually, it's someone with a tough guy image to uphold.  Hey! Check me out, I'm blasting average weight on massive amounts of drugs! 
Yeah, that's awesome!

I don't get it either. Stupid fucks.

"Oooh look at me, I'm awesome cause I just slammed 35 lbs!"

When I lifted at college , My main muthafukka (boy) was a manager and we put in LOX and DIPSET !!! That got my ish BOILING !!! Some days we would mess around and put in oldies for all the professors lifting ... specifically Motown...."STOP in the NAME of LOVE before you BREAK my  Heart!!>....... "

the other day, I was doing incline with the 140's dumbells, I managed a good 12 reps, after I was done, I had to let that shit slam on the floor, My gold's Gym is a very cool place, but some other gold's warned members not to let the weights slam on the floor. You can get injured on some occasion, if you have to dispose of the weights quietly.

I call that the tumble of death, my brother can lift 140s on incline but he is a short guy so he cant put them down without droping them....

and when thy hit its like they have a mind of their own... watch out for your achilles !!

[Rich2]

how about we just ignore the idiots in the gym and work out? thats sounds good.
