I am working out in my gym, looking reasonably fit [well to the general public anyway] and some disgustingly obese guy that is twice my age and incapable of benching as much as me, and is constantly late on his gym payments so I have to hunt him down each month........continously interrupts my set to ask me to go out to dinner ::)

another thing i love doing is crushing people's pride when they use the Smith Machine with the 10 pound bar like if a dude is using two plates per side for inclines a say, "damn dude, 190 that's pretty good" hahahaha.

i went off on this dude the other day, i'm doing flat flyes at the end of my chest workout and right before my last set with the 80's this geek turns the bench around sideways and starts doing one legged squats with one foot on the bench, this guy is like 5'9" 150lbs. and he did a whopping two sets of barbell squats with 135 and 155 before this, so i say, "hey dude do you mind if i use this bench for what it was intended for and he goes i'm sorry man, i say why do you do those pussy ass things anyway why not just put more weight on the bar for regular squats? i haven't seen him since.

Theres a skinny guy in my gym who thinks hes the biggest, baddest bodybuilder on the planet. With an imperious look in his eyes he sneers at everybody and makes facetious comments about their strength and form. He then struggles to curl a ten pound barbell. He posts on getbig.

 :-[

I jump rope. In my defense, I do it to help my fitness routine [and in private]

I have a guy here who wraps up every possible joint extensively and then does quarter reps as his range of motion is so limited. Like when he wraps his knees..it goes from the mid calf to mid thigh. The other members all call him 'the mummy' behind his back.

haha..my gym is always filed with mexican guys...all ages too.   you have the standard 20 year old mexican guys that always wearing black wie beaters and bandanas doing supersets of bench presses with 185 and sit ups. haha...

then you have the 30 year old mexican guys who sit on the row machine and talk with intense descriptions about fucking white chicks.    then you have the fifty year old mexican gusy with the strong accents that always say "hey amigo" even if you just saw him and he just said the same thing right before your last set.

haha...then youve got the senior citizen mexicans who walk on the treadmill wearing lifting belts for an hour.

shadow boxers and the people that jump rope just in the  middle of the damn gym are not only annoying but dangerous, I mean imagine what would happen to them if they hit someone :o

I found it crappy that while doing my normal cardio rountine there was a newb lady who just started working out and  she was between me and another real bodybuilder, and she looked over to me and said"uh-oh this is not going to work" in a joking manner, referencing that we intimidate her,and were nice guys, but it's jerks and dumbasses like shadow boxers,  and snarling 150lb weenies that give the true athletes  a bad rap.

I can't believe no one has mentioned the overweight guy who always has the bigass cup of coffee on the go. The guy at our place moves around but as fast as I am to turn around, I never actually see him lift anything. Maybe he just buys the membership to get out of the house or away from his wife.

There is a guy where I workout who is obese...looks like the blob.He feels the need to instruct everyone on what they should be doing and what they are doing wrong...lol...Everyone knows someone like that.I have known this guy for awhile...and to his credit(I think) he USED to be in decent shape...that was about 4 years ago....I still haven't figured out WTF happened to him..He actually knows quite a bit really...but it is comical to see a guy that fat and out of shape give'n strangers advice...you can just see it in their eyes ,they are thinking "How can you teach me how to build my body when you can't build yours!"..and people don't ask him to help...he just starts telling them on his own....Awhile back he was asked to give some dude a spot on the bench,I heard the guy say he was doing 5 sets of 5 or something like that.He had 225 on the bar and after the first set,fat boy takes it upon himself to replace one of the 45's with a 25!!haha...dude was like WTF are you doing?!! >:(...He said "You should be doing sets of 8-10 reps...you won't get anywhere doing sets of 5..you are not a power lifter...The dude was kinda pissed and switched the weight back and told him "If I want advice I will ask for it.. ..."and  fat boy actually had the balls to Take it back Off again and put the 25's on ...LMFAO...This set the guy off(understandably) and words were exchanged and before it was over they were both asked to leave...don't know if anything came of it but they are both back now but do not speak at all.

What about the guy that wears 3 t-shirts and a flannel with the sleeves ripped off at the forearms.
Wears the same thing EVER DAMN DAY!!!!.   
 Always in off season mode...Never seen with out the layers, no matter how hot it is. 
A   Gallon of water and wrist straps on at all times.  Gym bag follows to every machine and is the size of a buick.

we have a martial arts guy here who does one rep maxes with every exercise. I mean cables, preecher bench, anything. Exept squats. For that he does 3 inch squats with 6 plates per side and slams the weight. This fool was supersetting squats with calves and he loaded the seated calf machine with 45's up the the top and used the rest for squats. Everyone else who wanted to use plates was like WTF! MAN! You're not even doing one good rep!

short fat dude always comes in my gym and gives everyone advice. he only has two exercises he ever does, piss-poor rom seated machine bench and some weird cablecrossover exercise that involves using the entire stack, grabbing a handle and bending a little bit.

he comes over to me today while i'm benching and starts telling me how to target muscles. i'm not going to drop any jaws, but i'm no slouch either and this guy's built like a goddamn ewok and telling me what i should be doing. starts making up weird shit like that i should cross my ankles UNDER the bench for power.  ::)

  Those guys are the worst. As a guy it is painful to watch someone strike out so badly. Even worse is the fact that he won't stop. :-\
