Title: Cellphone in the gym
Post by: the trainer on March 27, 2014, 11:40:31 AM
Do you chat on your cellphone while you are working out I see a lot of people chatting and texting away on their cellphone between sets, the only way I chat on my phone while I am working out is unless its a serious emergency, I always say I am working out call me later.

Yes, but my gym is in my house and I am usually working at 0600 when I am in there. So if I need to take a call, so be it, such is life.

Never talk unless it's an emergency/very important or my son calling me.

I do check the livetext to see football scores though. Just keep it in my bag and check every 15 or 20 mins unless it's Liverpool playing in which case I spam refresh.

I do it all the time what's the big deal.

A text is going to break your concentration when you're sitting there doing nothing between sets ?

I've never taken a phone into the gym area in my life. I check it before I'm about to train and then when I go back into the changing room at the end of the workout. Any time between these two points it's like my phone doesn't exist.

Concentration and focus of peace.

Im on my phone between every set.

Setting up dinner plans, meetings, pussy etc.

The gym isnt serious business. It might be to people that are new, but not to me. I dont need to get pumped up and raging, im not new to this shit, i realize what needs to be done, so i do it. I dont need to fuck around with pre workout heart exploders or mental exercises in futility.

I always get delusional naturals asking me what kind of pre workout I use. I tell them if they need any sort of kick in the nuts a no doze pill works great.

My phone stays in my locker. If it's important, call me back later.

The only persons checking their phone in the gym are those eunuchs in the free weights area. Doing supersets with 5 minute text message breaks between sets.

People that do this are tech-toy addicted, brainless zombies.  I really feel sorry for them.

NOBODY should ever have 24 hour access to me and vice versa.


Cell phones...  ::)  ::)  ::)
