Do most people show up to the gym and do random shit?
I don’t have that good numbers but this guy I made friends with at the gym is amazed that I’m squatting 300lbs and asked what I do. I said I do the same exercises every time and add more weight and he responded dismissively in a “that will never work” kind of way and then talked about how he benches 135 every workout for 12 reps

Yes. 90% of the people who go to the gym go just so that they can say they do. Most people these days have no idea how to actually work out, they just think going to the gym automatically means they’re doing it right, like it’s a pill or something
can somewhat relate, first month of going to the gym was like that for me.
Most of the people who go to my gym are much stronger than me, so I assume they know what they're doing. However, some of them do have bad form, despite how buff they are.
I only see a couple regulars every time I go and they’re usually doing random machines.
the only gym story i have is the one where the girl at the front desk flirted with me to get me to sign up for a premium membership
but then i realized what she had done later that night so i never went and let my membership expire and now i work out in my garage.
there are only a couple of people I've seen come in there regularly and do an actual routine, most people come in there to talk, bench 3 reps, talk, maybe do a pull up, walk around, and then leave
I have never seen anyone at my gym actually do a routine. It's amazing, don't know how it happens.
>be at ymca
>jacked hood nigga asks me to spot him on bench
>go over to bench
>two 50 year old white guys are there to spot him too
>loads up 4 plates
>does 5 quarter reps while screaming with the three of us spotting him
Fun times.
Classic.

I go to the biggest gym in my town of several hundred thousand and the vast majority of people have no idea what they are doing at the gym but get this inflated ego just from going. I’m the biggest guy at my gym not on tren by a pretty decent stretch and I’ve only been training for about a year, good genetics played a part in that but 99/100 people at the gym aren’t really working out
>be me, black father of 5, married to 400lb whale.
>goto gym for piece of mind.
>also I steal PAWG brapps
>in the middle of devouring a brapp from girl at squat rack
>suddenly hear ground begin to rumble as wife barges into the gym.
>she sees me nose deep in a 16 year old girls ass crack
>turns out she was muslim
>pulls out explosive vest, detonates at PF front desk
>kills receptionist
>haha
>rapes the dead corpse of the girl I was brapping.
Based LARP. Really user, I liked it
my gym is liek this:
>couple of actual bodybuilders attend
>they all turned out to be super nice people, despite looking like they wanna murder someone during workout.
>they're the ONLY PEOPLE IN THE PLACE that ever heard of Deadlift or Bent Barbell Rows
>90% of the fuckable girls are luxury hookers on some secret slut-for-call service translated to something like Cortesy
>at around 22:00 the gym gets flooded with asian skeletons (of all ages)
>the people working at the gym only ever make routines with brosplit or some machine-only dyel variation of PPL
>fucking weird choices of music (mostly tecnho or baby's first rockband, but sometimes the computer hooked up on the speakers starts blasting MPB (brazilian version of Smooth Elevator Jazz)
Anyway pretty normal i guess
to illustrate, this is what i have to deal with when i don't bring my own headphones:
>be at gym
>go to use a machine to finish out routine for the day
>see dumbbells all over the floor next to it
>I'll use the one next to it guess
>hey buddy I'm using that
>give him a disgusted slow nod and decide to go to some other machine and finish it there
>my autism is flaring and I make a plan for the next session
>same guy doing same faggot shit by bringing all the equipment to him
>begin operation
>bring a shit ton of dumbbells near his and pretend to do some sets, luckily it's not far from the machines nearby so I can sneak them in slowly
>surprisingly he finds nothing wrong, decide to raise the stakes with barbells, still not a peep
>at this point there's like 20 total dumbbells on the floor and like 4 barbells
>once his rest begins, I sneak away without him noticing, take off my sweater so he doesn't notice me and go to do my real workout
>hear gym staff arguing with him about all the fucking equipment around him
>mfw
Devilish.
damn son, noice
The only thing I see people do with regularity are meme exercises on the cable fly machine. I see no rhyme or reason to most peoples exercises, mixing push and pulls and legs and everything at random and they're constantly doing different things without going up in weight.
form literally does not matter. do you think our cavemen ancestors (strongest humans in history) were worried about form? fuck no, they were just lifting heavy shit and moving on
and then dying young from injuries, strong logic idiot
