>go to gym tired as shit
>load up bench for warm-up, one plate on each side
>except I forgot one side
>lift off, bar immediately dips to one side
>awkward way to lift weight, basically end up stuck
>bro lifts it off of me, asks if I need a spot
>"no haha just tired"
>don't bench, do like two exercises then leave
>tfw can't even lmao1plate bench

Why am I like this?

Nope. Why would that be bullshit

Chances are literally no one cared or noticed that any of this happened

We had some guy literally shit his pants at the gym at 6 pm after work rush. I was stunned and disgusted by the smell. There was literally shit trail out the revolving door....man was that embarrassing.

I had the bar fall on my face during benching once. No one cared.

Bullshit

Ill give you my morning today at golds gym

>gym thots taking up the 2 squat racks
>start decline press
>fuck up on 155lbs and almost drop it on my neck
>do my regular and incline
>fail OHP at 105lbs
>fat asain bitch literally using the only deadlift bar for 30+ minutes
>take off bench bar and do full cleans
>after cleaning 185, get a catch in my back, drop the weight, I turn around and I see some 50 yr old doing tai chi karate punches in the mirror by the dumbells

>realize my work out is gonna remain shit, try to stretch my back, leave with minor pain and shitpost on/fit/

fucking hate golds gym. my day has been shit because of it

smith machine leg presses. (person is on their back on the floor doing leg presses on the bar) next to an empty leg press machine

Its real. You don't believe if you dont want to.

You need to switch off and not let other 'people' at the gym throw off your game. Not saying it's easy but you gotta try - there's never always going to be a perfect gym.

do SS, weak cunt

I don’t.

Why would I assume any story is real with out proof on a Philippine basket weaving forum

>in the squat rack
>some kinda really short and greasy 15 yr old comes in
>he goes to the squat rack right next to me
>it has two tens on each side without clips (probably from some gym thot) and is obviously set too high for the kid
>he goes on his toes and struggles to take it off the holder
>somehow he manages to tip it and the plates slide off one one side then it tilts to the other side with more plates falling off
>the bar is now one the floor outside of the rack with the plates on both sides
>he says something like "God, the person before must not have put the fucking clips on"
>everyone is obviously looking and he said it loudly too
>he leaves the squat rack with the shit on the floor and and just walks around the gym doing nothing for the rest of the hour I'm there
It happened a long time ago and is the weirdest thing to ever happen to me

>deadlift bar

Is that a trap bar?

The Philippine government kills everyone who lies on basket weaving forums. It's part of their "Giyera Contra Memea" or whatever it's called.

all about that asymmetrical training, bro

>cant bench 155
>cant OHP 105
>worried about other people at the gym
what's it like to be socially awkward AND weak as shit?

Bump

IT'S A TRAP

Heh, old meme for my old boys. Carry on with your thread.

Happened today. Dyel shows up, load few 20lbs plates on 3 fucking benchs, different weights on each. Literally using 3 benches by himself, with meme weight, half repping with shit form, and of course he leaves the fucking weights on the bars.

Seriously how come there are people like this?

I chipped my tooth once doing preacher curls

I clipped my chin doing OHP once. I chipped one of my front teeth because of it. I don't think anyone noticed though.

I walked in on an old guy sitting on a locker room bench and fapping. He was ass naked too. Isn’t that basically illegal?

Go fuck yourself. You know what you’re doing and it’s not cute.

shit routine

How can you tell, just from that, you coping loser?

Probably watching every tough guy at the gym try to send the heavy bag flying through the air with shittiest, most awkward arm punches.

Also the shit people wear at the gym.

>doing cable delt flyes
>someone taps my shoulder midset
>take headphones out
>"hey man are you using that cable?"
>...Yes, I was in the middle of a set
>"Woah ok jeez I was just asking"
Really jingles my pringles

>doing three types of benchpress
>followed by OHP
>Followed by power cleans/deadlifts

You either go full bro split with a chest day so you can do your three benchpresses in the same session, or you do upper but with a single forward pressing movement.

Saw a guy browsing Jow Forums once

Troll response or srs

>decline, incline, flat bench, OHP, clean, deadlift all in one day

shit routine

my numbers are even less than his and its hell. to add insult to injury i also look like a girl.

Nothing too bad, but some indian guy would lift up his shirt and stare at his non existent abs in the mirror between every set of 40kg bench.

My buddy at work confronted some dude who would regularly leave a log of shit in the shower. The guy tried to play it off as if he didn't know. Total cringe.

This was a planet fitness so it's much more believable

that's a fuckin rad story

>projection

LMAO 0.5 plate

>picking up some attachment for the cable machine
>stand up
>bang my head o the bar already on there

EVERY FUCKING TIME

if you actually had any weight on it then it would have been more damaging

>that guy that does the same routine as his gf but only adds 25lbs to each lift

Seriously fucking embarassing. And I caught your gf mirin my A2G squat thats more than twice what you'e squatting

Fuckin pathetic

There is no workout that is both effective for a guy and a girl, PERIOD

jesus you army fags get mogged by our female Marines too?

Guy injured himself doing bench presses because his spotter wasn't paying attention at all.

Had to rush in to help, because he was just sheepishly standing there while his friend was tearing his muscles.

this post made me discover that jeard should be shorthand for just heard

why is it always shitskins, women and DYEL's that leave the weights and shit everywhere?

>those 2 fillipino guys who use 5 different sets of dumbells and 2 barbells at the same time then just leave them on the floor by the bench they were on
>they lift absolute baby weight and are about 5'8 and 50kg/110pounds but they always flex in the mirror and think they're ripped because they have low bodyfat

>sitting down at lat pulldown
>Take pin out of stack
>Attachment bops you in the head

The thing that gets me now is
>studying abroad in Nippon
>Gym is Soviet era old as fuck, 2 benches and 2 power racks tho
>Nearly every day the entire football team comes in
>Nearly all of them are extremely fat
>All of them drop their weights every time, even if they're doing shit like a curl
>Leave weights all over the fucking floor
>Extremely fucking bad form, curved back deadlifts extremely common, very low ROM squats and curls
>Trainer stands around nodding like it's all good

The one thing I remember most vividly here happened like 2 weeks ago
>Be me, OHPing 25kg on each side
>Not even that much, but some guy decided to flex on me
>Goes into nearby rack, loads up rack pulls, maybe like around 70kg each side
>I'm mildly impressed, checking form
>He literally moves the weight a liter inch, the pins are slightly below his knees
>Curves his back a bit

Good fucking Lord half the people here don't know how to lift

>not lifting for god

Checked those triples

So by the power of meme spirits 000 confirms story to be true

Why the everloving fuck are you doing three different types of bench press and OHP all in the same day

>black guy doing extremely physical, dominating things
>user gets excited by this and continues listening to the sounds


this sounds like some kind of cuck fanfiction where you jerk off to the sound of Tyreese fucking your girl in the next room and bust the biggest load of your life

holy shit, we have a dude that does that at my gym as well
>mfw their rests between sets are just 5 minutes of talking to each other

>30+ yo guy walks in while i'm doing cardio on the treadmill
>hops on the treadmill right by my side, starts chatting with me
>says he never worked out before but he's gonna start now
>asks me if i can help him
>sure why not
>he asks what lifts he should go for as a begginer
>recommend ohp, bench presses, deadlifts and squats
>"man that sounds too complicated shit hahaha i'm just gonna do bench presses"
>he goes to bench
>asks me how much weight he should use
>tell him to start somewhere low like 30kg just to see how his body responds
>"nah man i can do more than that. how about 50?"
>sure
>spot him
>he does 1 rep and gives up
>"cmon lets try it again"
>does another rep, gives up
>looks like he's about to cry, says he has to go and thanks me for the help
>storms out of the gym, never seen him again after that

I witnessed a guy having a midlife crisis right there and didn't notice until later. The poor guy was clearly going through some shit.

bullshit

how do I increase my OHP?

bullshit

Watching as I slowly surpass all of the regulars one by one.

bullshit

I saw a 40 year old skinny-fat dude wearing lifting gloves and a backwards baseball cap doing preacher curls with 5lbs on each side and after 5 he would do fingerguns and wink at himself in the mirror.

More OHP

>no pic of yourself to shut me up
You’ll see

>Army 1LT

Why is it always Lt's doing oly shit.

>Gym is packed even for a Saturday

OHP is like one of the most difficult things that mankind has ever created, if you think legs are cancer well think of OHP as leg day but for arms instead, you just gotta keep doing it till your arms look like torpedoes

I swear it's legit. The kid looked like he had some slight mental problems and that his parents may have made him go there because he was extremely wimpy looking. I'm just guessing but it's what I think. It was especially weird for me because he blamed the person who used it before him for not putting on clips In order to try to save face, which obviously failed

You’re full of shit. Bait

Yes, it is illegal. You should be arrested for walking in on him like that.

bullshit

How did people “hear him” if all gyms blast obnoxious radio music and most people have earbuds in and conversation, machines, and weight-clanging cover up a lot of sound? Troll. No one would have paid attention to what he said, only the dropping of the weights/bar

>kettle bells on the bar doing squats
>looking around
>everyone is staring at this guy even the employee
>employee never says shit
dude had like 3 kettle bells on each side

that wass actually funny

You must be 17 or really dull. After a long day of stress and trying to be competent and your best self, being presented with such sheer fucking idiocy should piss you off rather than make you giggle. Maybe it’d be funny as a sketch in a comedy movie, but in real life, irritating as fuck.

are all shitskins black? or are all black's shitskins?

>he would do fingerguns and wink at himself in the mirror.

expert on this topic

Well wouldn't you be looking if someone dropped a bar and all it's weight? And then I just assumed other people would hear it because he said it loudly. Also, I would like to know what part of this is making everyone assume it's fake, has there never been a stupid idiot at your gym?
