Gym drama - What Would You Do?

> doing OHP in powerrack (there are 3 in my gym)
> putting weights on barbell and a vaguely attractive girl doing lunges walks in the narrow gap between the powerracks
> she seems annoyed that I got in the way of her "route", but I didnt see her and her lunge route is retarded.
> 60 seconds later
> huge guy walks over to me (above natty limit)
> says "is this your stuff?" pointing to my phone and chalk on floor in powerrack
> say yeah
> "MOVE IT"
> I do without even thinking. I thought he was a gym instructor (he wasnt). I was about to ask why
> he takes control of the powerrack and gets the lunge girl (his girlfriend I now realise) to come over and start squatting in the powerrack
> she is doing goblet squats with 5kg dumbell and slowly does at least 20 reps before I realise she is not stopping or what even had happened. (i was waiting for her to finish her "set" to say it was my rack, idk why).
> I am about to tell her I was in the middle of using the powerrack (giving her benefit of doubt), but the big guy is watching me through the big mirror on the wall with a furious scowl, looking to start a fight if I talk to his girl
> I submit and walk to empty squat rack at other end of the gym
> 5 mins later the girl fucking follows me across the gym and starts using the cable machine next to me and keeps bending over to show her ass. The squat rack Im in has a huge wall mirror and there is no way I can look anywhere without her being in my field of view.
> Big guy comes over and is shielding my view of her, which I am trying to avoid anyway.
> she is clearly trying to start a fight between me and him

What should I have done?
I dont want to be beta, but I also just dont want to start a fight I wont win or get kicked out of the gym.
I just wanted to do my fucking workout!
I was disgusted by both their behaviours, as well as my initial submissiveness.

Shoot him

lol they both sound cringe as fuck

you're probably low in serotonin right now btw

Wear a Blackwater t-shirt next time you workout. No one will dare to pull shit like that then.

couples that pull this weird sex game bullshit are the worse

wait... you didn't even ask the girl if you can sniff her braaaap?

Jump him in the parking lot.

Mate, the whole idea of being an alpha is that you stand up for your fucking self WIN or LOSE, you're clearly afraid of conflict regardless. Squeeze your balls man.

If a guy told me to move my shit out of nowhere with NO respect we're fighting one way or another

And his bitch was testing you which you also failed, you felt intimidated by a woman, how you gonna stand up to an actual man?

>Disgusted by my initial submissiveness

This is the only point you should take away from all this. A stranger forced his will onto you, for no good reason, and you let him. You let him?? Just because he had swollen arms? You're a coward at heart, don't worry most people are. You probably won't be able to change that either. I wised up thanks to lifting. But you are already lifting, so good luck puss puss.

you are a little bitch that's all. only because he is roided ? fuck that if you know how to fight that bitch is going down regardless.

so just leave your stuff there instead of moving it like a bitch and stand your ground. when his girl is taking your spot loudly tell her that you are using the rack already and ask her wtf she thinks she is doing. if he throws your stuff away just start loudly yelling at him if he wants to fight or wtf is wrong with him and if he ever touches your shit again you are gonna deck him.

you dont even have to fight just act like you are ready to, gym staff will likely be there very fast if you raise your voice and that roidhead will either chill in which case you get to stay in your rack. or he will attack you and get thrown out of the gym and never come back and all you have to do is stand your goddamn ground for a minute or so.

join a martial arts gym or something user and learn to defend yourself.

does that imply he was in the marines or what ? not from the US so thats why Im asking

Learn MMA.
Next time that roided out fuck approaches you, pin him and rape his boipussy to assert dominanace.
No homo

I think you can very much change it but it is hard to do because it requires you to change your entire mindset. I once was like OP when I was a fat kid in school and was pushed around.

but years of lifting, martial arts and changing the way I think have transformed my mind. now I am ready to go into the ground for the right cause. my friends think I am dumb for having this outlook on life but honestly I am ready and willing to even die for my principles. which is also why I dont understand all these military service refuser from syria and have no empathy for 20 something year old "refugees". if you dont stand up to ISIS and are ready to die to protect your country and family you are no man in my book.

But bro
He is the beta
And she is the roastie
You should have just told the trainer. If he did nothing just switch gyms. When you moved your shit you should have said "sorry if it blocked your path. Calm down bro" with a big smile on your face
This is where martial arts and weapons come in

Isis are just CIA agents. You're the type of amerimutt with half a brain that they look for in the military to kill innocent whites (serbia, ukraine....)

The next time you just raise an eyebrow and continue what you were doing.

You don't doubt yourself, you stand your ground.

Don't be a bitch, if you aren't going to stand up for yourself there's no point in even being a man. Look everyone in the eyes. Practice looking yourself in the eyes. Find the animal inside you and see what those crazy eyes look like. If your eyes are crazy enough you don't even have to talk to anyone. Just nod or shake your head.

Tell gym management that you're being bullied, and if something doesn't change you're canceling your membership

You should've probably behaved like an adult
>Excuse me, I was actually using this equipment.
and then take back your rack.
also, completely ignoring the chick and not giving her a single amount of attention is probably the biggest blow to her ego you can do.
also, no functional adult picks fights at the gym. people mentioning martial arts are fucking spaz. don't fight people over shit thats beyond trivial. if someone steps up to you, you respond calmly, sternly and with annoyance because he's interrupting whatever it is you're doing.
being submissive sucks, remember this and don't do it again.

Just tell her you were using it. If he starts a physical fight you get him kicked out of the gym and then you won't have to deal with that shit again.

that guy sounds cool

This is the only decent post so far. You dont punch out a nigger for being rude. You ignore him until he puts his hands on you, then youre free to do whatever you feel you need to do. OPs only mistake was listening to the guy in the first place.

>> says "is this your stuff?" pointing to my phone and chalk on floor in powerrack
>> say yeah
>> "MOVE IT"
>No.

There you go, user. Problem fucking solved. Just stand up for yourself you dumb piece of shit.
If he asks you again, ask him why you need to move your stuff.
If he touches your shit, you have grounds to file a police report and also report to the gym management.
If he tries to start a fight with you, or physically attacks you or attempts physical intimidation, you also have grounds to file a police report and report to the gym management.

You were doing nothing wrong until you moved your shit.
Also, you weren't in the way of her route. She was getting in the way of your use of the rack. It's not like you carry the fucking rack around the gym. She knew what she was doing and she knows that you would be almost forced to notice her by going into the power racks, as you were most likely going to be concerned about safety.

>Squatting in the deadlift rack.
>With a dumbbell.
>Goblin squats.

I take it back. You should have shot them both to death.

>You ignore him until he puts his hands on you, then youre free to do whatever you feel you need to do.

This unironically. He puts so much as a finger on you smash a plate into his face until he's no longer a threat.

Sounds like he thinks you're gonna make a move on his girl
Walk up to them and grope his ass instead, he'll never see it coming

When's the last time someone actually even confronted and threatened you?
You're a comfy white loser who doesn't know war and never will.

if you're in florida, or another stand your ground state, this is unironically good advice. talk to the girl, then when her asshole bf shoves you, blow him away.

blackwater (now academi) is a mercenary company notorious for their disregard for the rules of engagement in warzones. not that i'm hating; i'd probably kill civilians if i was in iraq, too.

Maybe you should have not got into his girlfriends way. You sound like a bitch so it was probably your fault

Dude if someone did that in the gym when I'm fucking amped I would have smash his dick in.

You should've done the following:

>says "is this your stuff?"
>say
>"MOVE IT"
>say or what?
>"OR IMA GOING TO BEAT YOUR ASS"
>look him deep in the eyes with a deadly serious expression
>say get out of my sight before we put you in a bodybag

I think there is a small, but realistic chance that she is a celebrity of some sort, and the guy you encountered is not her boyfriend, but her security guard/handler.

Celebrities have this cadre of assholes who are always telling bystanders to get the fuck out of the way because the celebs time is precious (in their opinion). Sometimes the celebrity is not aware their crew is doing this.

cringe

its more cringe to be a beta fag that wont even stand his ground

The correct thing to do would've been to tell him you're using the equipment. If he tries starting shit, just be confident that he's going to be all-bark-no-bite. If he actually did try assaulting you, there are cameras everywhere in commercial/uni gyms and he'd be caught dead to rights.

But that's all in the past now. Only take away message here is to not act so beta and to not just roll over like a little beta puppy and stand up for yourself next time.

Not worth your time. Retards gonna retard.

>being willing to die over a squat rack
natural selection at its finest

>not being willing to die over a squat rack
Never gonna make it

So much this. OP is a beta

you should have thrown poop at him later and said "i moved my shit bro"

You did the right thing by not reacting. Roided out guys like that probably get hard from petty confrontation, so don't give him what he wants. If it escalates contact the gym staff - most gyms have cameras - and see how much of a big guy he is when his membership is taken away. When you get in a fight over who has the "right" to use a certain machine in a gym, you both look like idiots.

it happens bro. eventually you'll build up a backbone and respond to stuff like this confidently. in well functioning humans it comes with age and experience, in barely-above-apes it starts at around age 10, and only escalates from there (till you end up like the guy you met).

fwiw, probably better to not confront these guys. some guy was deadlifting 4 plates at my gym and didn't rack the weights (inner city / black gym, nobody fucking racks the weights and it drives me nuts, I'm not unracking all that weight just to work back up to it) so I went and told him to do it. Guy got visibly enraged and went around slamming weights nearby him. Would not have been worth any confrontation if it happened just to appease my ego.

just curious but were you ever humiliated before?

>t. psych 1 student lmao

you can totally change. one year after hitting the gym i was in one of my gym’s powerrack and the powerlifter who basically lives there and who everybody knows started asking me to leave saying it was his rack. I just looked at him and said no im using it and kept doing my routine. guy just left me alone and found a different one that was open

OP please tell me this is bait.
If not then you should’ve stood up for yourself when he told you to move your stuff. Just say no, what’s he gonna do clock you in the middle of the gym? If he does he gets arrested, if he challenges you to a fight, berate him over being so sensitive, don’t be a nigger and fight unless he physically harasses you. It’s that simple.

Before anyone calls you a cuck, you did intially think he was an instructor who worked for the gym. Next time it happens you know now to ask if they work at the gym, if they say no you can tell them how many sets you have left and see if he asks to work in.

Guy sounds like an asshole and girl sounds like a thot. You already conceded the first move to the guy by moving your stuff so unless you wanted to start a fight your only choice was to move. Imo you did the right thing to avoid conflict and the guy was acting like a little bitch following his thot gf around as she bends over for strangers

i know guys like that. they get mad as fuck if they see some guy enjoying himself/laughing around him. imo they just have shitty head spaces and try to make other guys get that shitty " i wanna beat some dudes ass for no reason" headspace because they literally have nothing else going for them

He thought he was a gym instructir though, people arw conditioned to follow uniform and authority fighres. If OP knew he was just a regular dude i think it would be different

Note that OP didnt move again when the thot and her bf moved into his space the second time, he knew they were just regular fags

Fuck sorry for my garbage spelling

First, you bitched out
Second, you should have taken him aside and had a word with him, *not where she can see*
this is why women shouldn't be allowed in gyms

>Walk up to them and grope his ass instead, he'll never see it coming

Quads of truth speak the only acceptable course of action

smile and ignore them, if they keep exerting energy and infringing on your space talk to the gym staff/police and say they are possibly on drugs.

Retarded nigger logic. You stand up for yourself in situations that truly matter not some low IQ retard at the gym.
