Monday gym story !!!!!!!!

[The Showstoppa]

I was in the middle of a set of deadlifts, nothing over the top, 365 for 8 when I notice this 150lb turd loading 135lb's on the bench behind me.  He hops around for a couple of minutes and then jumps under the weight.  I was doing a bit of stretching when I noticed the bar was in a slow downward movement, I thought maybe he is doing a negative, but then it just dead stopped on his chest.  Pause, maybe?  After about 10 seconds he raised his head, looked at me and asked if "hey man can I get a spot" to which I pointed at my lower back and told him I couldn't risk injury.  Some 110lb desk worker chick finally wrestled it off him. It was pretty damn comical. 
So I finished my 3rd set of 365 and gave him an old-school head nod greeting and left.

Funny story but you should have helped him, no matter what kind of clown he was.

[sarcasm]

[jaejonna]

I hate watching young or inexperienced lifters use free wieghts without the collars... first you see the tilt, then that side drops off then the other side shoots up like a seesaw to only drop the rest.... hahahahah

Monster helpfulness

hahahaha, what a beast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw a guy on Saturday doing squats with a 25 pound dumbell... i started laughing as Sarcasm's line "WHAT A BEAST" kept running through my mind!  He was a true SAVAGE!

[puredrive]

if that story is true then you are a classic prick. and it is no wonder why people stereotype bodybuilders as ass holes. real nice dude. i think it is funny how you act as if you were doing nothing big with 365 for 8. reality is you probably shit yourself after your first attempt and gave up. you couldnt spot him becuase you didnt want the shit to come tumbling out of your little weeny bikini training shorts.

Outstanding work.  Perhaps you should have pissed on him a little while he was trapped.

Good idea.  Or at least he could've taken the opportunity to fart in his face.

hahaha yeah great story bro.    im bout to head to the gym....but before i gotta tell you about yesterday at my gym..hahaha...i walk in and every single fucker in there is wearing a wife beater and a bandana. no joke. lol.   most of em are doing pretty sissy shit, like benching 135, and half squatting 225 for two reps.   but then....this ops it..a man walks in about 500 lbs and 5'10''..the mother fucker is wearing all sweats.  he does two sets of concentration curls cheating his ass off with 1 25 lb dumbell, then gets up strips off his sweats to reveal mc hammer workout and starts shadow boxing like a motha fucka yelling like hes in the middle of squatting 5 plates or somethings...he proceeds to do this for about 10 minutes till he finally picks up his sweats off the florr, throws them oevr his shoulder and walks out.   the classic tough man head nod as he leaves. LOLOL.

LOL, for some reason that cracked me up.

That would be more appropriate. 

[LuciusFox]

hahaha! was it "luciousfox"

 I could have tossed that around for 7 reps without a bench shirt

Pretty dick of you not to help the jackass  

But, another gym story similar to yours: The other day in the gym, a pair of obvious newbs come in to the weight room after some basketball (they were carrying a bball so don't know if they were actually playing or what).  They load the BRUTAL 135 on the bar......and then proceed to PSYCHE each other up by........slapping each other in the FACE!  I mean, one would go for 6 reps, get up, and then proceed to slap the other one prior to his set.....

This Weider principle should probably reserved for the Advanced trainers

i dont understand why you didnt help him?..

Help him?  Not my job.  They pay the chick at the desk good $$$ for that type of thing.  What if I had injured my back?  Would you pay my bills?  

[natural al]

piece of shit.  you should have helped him

[The Showstoppa]

piece of shit.  you should have helped him

Why?  Not my job.

[drkaje]

The guy on the bench is responsible to ask for a squat in advance.

135 isn't a lot but it pisses me off when people are consistiently lifting way more than they're capable of and always need a spot. A spotter should spot or even give you a lift but spotting someone shouldnt' turn into a second work-out.

'Oah, be careful with those MONSTER WEIGHTS!"
