I workout in my college gym which is filled with frat dudes wearing tanks (some cut all the way down the side to reveal non-existant lats). My partner and I are usually the only two wearing shirts with sleeves. The amount of ego in that gym is retarded. The stuff I see is hilarious, to the point of laughing (quarter squats, flexing in the mirror, half ROM benching, wearing straps to deadlift 135, etc). Although, it probably doesn’t help that all the cardio machines (used only by girls) are up on the second floor and look down on the weight room…
I was repping 405 on my DL’s the other day at the end of my back workout, and had some small wanna-be-trainer come up to me and tell me I was cheating because I was using straps. I asked him to put on the straps and try to pick up the bar. He then told me he wasn’t used to straps because “he doesn’t cheat” so he wouldn’t be able to lift it while wearing them, then proceeded to walk away with his arms flared out…only to correct someone else’s form across the gym. Good times. [/quote]
omg. that is soooo damn funny. i couldn’t stop laughing! wow. anyway today at MY gym, this steroid guy comes right up to me and says, “hey, how long you gonna be? i tell him, " a while. im doing circuits.” guy says, “i see you here all the time and you always take long in the rack. This isnt you’re personal gym you know, its Golds gym for the public.” so i said, " well I’m considered the public and I was here first. he walked off before i could even finish what i was saying… total wife beater. for real.
