anyone have that guy crabwalking while curling
a gym thot suck a random chad's dick
When I first signed up at a gym and had zero knowledge of how things worked, I was wearing jeans, a sweater, and outdoor shoes and proceeded to try out some of the machines in the gym dressed like that.
I’m surprised I didn’t get told off by anyone.
>Reverse hack squats
>stupid
Spotted the dyel
>spotted the joel seedleman jerkoff partner
Ouch.
That one girls who was literally sticking her ass out and shaking it up and down in skintights that got mad some dude popped a chub at her
lmao, this looks funny af. might try it when no one's around
>popped a chub
What does that mean?
lobster walks, a classic
His penis became semi-erect.
how are these stupid? going heavy on these are fucking amazing for hams/glutes
a challenger appears
Because there's nothing wrong with that as long as you're not being an asshole.
I suppose not, but it’s definitely “wrong”.
And wearing outdoor shoes in a gym is also clearly not ideal, though I can’t rightly expect them to notice that.
I-i-s he okay?
Holy fuck my sides
sometimes after work if I can't be bothered changing I just go to the gym in my work clothes if im doing upper body or something
some indian guy always stands behind the shoulder press machine starts throwing it up and dropping it making alot of noise
I don't know how that machine is called, I don't use it, where you have a triangular handle and you pull on it with usually with one hand but can be with two. There was a guy that pulled it down to the floor, got on his hands a knees doggy style, put his head through it so that the handle was on his neck, then he was pulling it down with his head/neck. I could swear he was going to choke.
There was a young boomer in a crop top doing skull crushers with a EZ curl bar in a squat rack. He racked it poorly and almost did a Skullcrusher x death.
>skinny guy in the bench press next to me keeps dropping the bar on his chest
>I'm listening to music so I couldn't hear if he's asking for help or not
>proceeds to dump the weights
>he's benching 95 pounds by the way
>doesn't even do the roll of shame
>pull out my earbuds and tell him if he needs a spot to just let me know
>"i should be good man thanks though"
>fucking drops the bar on his chest again and dumps the weight
It honestly looked it was one of his first times in the gym lifting so I hope he keeps going and learns. I hope he makes it.
Very minor chance of damaging a treadmill with non-athletic shoes, other than that it doesn't matter how you dress.
I saw and indian guy incline press a single 30 pound dumbbell using both hands
Instead of just using 2 10/15 pounds dumbells lol
my fucking sides
>that weight
>literal chicken legs
What the fuck was he thinking? I'm sad he got up afterwards, he deserved to have both knees go pop.
It's that alien from the Charlie Sheen movie!
Lol this was me when I started. Didn't know the roll. Had clips on so I couldn't dump plates. Failed a rep so I ended up resting with the bar on my chest and then tried to push it up and back and slide out from underneath it.
Ended up breaking my nose with it. Unloaded the bar while covering my face, racked it, and got the hell out of there. No one said anything the whole time.
I fucking hate indians man
One time I forgot my shorts.
It was leg day.
You bet your ass I squatted in those khakis.
i can't help but laugh at the people that shadow box in the gym.
Clearly a jockey in training
Mirin' core strength.
lmfao dont ever do this
>I should be good man thanks though
Guess he was embarrassed by the weight. Poor guy
>Skinny gay black dude with bleached hair is talking loudly in his falsetto voice
>Any time someone looks at him he give the most evil stink eye glair like he's a second away from throwing down
>Guy who looks like fucking halfthor if he were "only" 6'2" walks in (in my head I call him the mountain), sees this, politely asks dude to reduce volume
>Without missing a beat "who the hell is you? The mountain that chides?!?"
Never saw the nog again, did see mountain once a while later, it was like he saw humanity right behind him in the reflection of the gym door because I've never seen such a furious Pace with zero resting.
Forgot me pic
that filename...
that isnt even a reverse hacksquat
The Chad Gallop, a classic.
jens kidman taking care of himself i see
>virgin elliptical vs the Chad Chariot
I've done that before, I couldn't help, but grin at all the dyel zoomers wearing skin tight spandex shirts while I walked in with grimy hiking boots, a long sleeve flannel, and khakis
Mostly boomers doing stupid shit like
>reading magazines on the leg extension machine
>yawning obnoxiously
>hacking and coughing
>making weird goat noises
>jumping between multiple machines and getting angry when you start using one they were on
>never re-racking weights
>refusing to share equipment
>flaunting their old, saggy genitalia in the locker room
>always improperly using every piece of equipment in the gym
>getting in the way
>overall just killing the mood with their presence
there's a fucking built ~65 year old dude at my gym who puts up insane numbers but lifts with just the worst form on every single lift. no one wants to tell him because he's huge and old but damn it gets me every time I see him deadlifting big numbers with a bent ass back
Last guy I saw doing reverse hack squats was a twink singing a song about literal buttfucking, also doing 6 plates.
This is what it's like to live in Los Angeles.
I tried not to look so I'm not sure exactly what he was doing, but some guy was holding a barbell like he was going to do shrugs and then sort of vibrated with the bar instead
Front levers are hard
Shiet. If it makes you feel better, I hit the bar right in my mouth and nose the first time I tried a push press and left blood in the floor as I ran for the bathroom.
Guys like that were taught how to deadlift when they played football half a century ago in high school by a coach that had no idea what it meant to use proper body mechanics. Over the decades they became used to dealing with back pain and tight muscles. Their whole mentality is "no pain no gain." They are lifting to hurt themselves because that is how they were taught by their fatass football coach back in the day. They know nothing else and they feel like they don't need to learn anything new because they are already convinced that what their - now deceased - high school football coach taught them was quoted from the holy bible itself.

yeah same and I got huge fucking steel toe boots and look like a faggot but who gives a fuck
oc
>doing military presses on rack in front of mirror
>step back from rack, leaving about 1 metre/3 feet
>admittedly, i technically could have been a little bit closer to the rack, but i wasn't unreasonably far away; wanted to see my whole body in mirror, plus don't like feeling cramped
>this power-boomer is faaarken fliyin round the whole gym
>doing weightless lateral raises while POWER walking
>(seriously - this c*nt is flyin)
>the reason he's moving at all, i still am not enlightened to
>much less why he's power-walking around this (very small) gym in circles
>like, mate...why not just go outside if you're not using weights and want to wing-walk
>absolute turkey
>oldmate fucken power-flaps in front of me mid-press
>this pelican could have just gone behind me and lost the extra 0.859m of distance on his flight path
>but no - gotta get that boom boom boom
>finish my set, and after he makes a landing i meekly; politely confront him (despite being a bit miffed)
>"excuse me, mate: when you walked in front of me during an exercise just then, that was actually quite dangerous, etc."
>oldmate's eyes start buldging
>he's psychotically tense, and snarky
>like a weak hound lashing out in insecure fear, he starts goin off
>"BLAH BLAH blah how dare you ME ME my I"M a member of this gym NO RIGHT blah blah MANAGMENT"
>this ego-centric child of the "me age" cannot fathom the idea that his gumby behaviour was not only inconsiderate but actually dangerous
>rich gym too (i'm an upper-middleclass fgt) so that would only add to his conceitedness
>rarted galah flaps off after his last fuse broke
>continue my training
>he goes and talks to the receptionist - some foreign cunt like every single other employee at that gym (william spence please come back)
>later he re-confronts me, after getting a second wind, and no-doubt stewing on how i unjustly assaulted him
>what a poof lol
disclaimer: look alright i am not racist against boomers alright i have plenty ov boomer firens and
>The mountain that chides
Kek. You should call him “The Foothill” if he’s that much shorter
There's a bunch of DYEL Indian guys that hang out at my gym in a group benching 135 and loudly talk shit about everyone around them. It's really fun to set up and do 245 for 5x5 right next to them.
this was delightfully written
I cringed at a dyel squatting atg without lordosis. I wanted to correct him but I dont feel like doing that sort of stuff towards strangers. i only correct form to my bros. I know he could've injured himself but i really dont give a shit, darwinism should take care of it
Ripped Indian guy at my gym always walks around with his mouth open. Strutting around like he owns the place. I hate how smug he looks.
I went to the gym today in khaki shorts. Arm day, so it didnt matter.
>tfw had to beg a guy to help me when I was pinned on the bench because I tried benching with a belt but didn't realize that I can't roll of shame with it in the way
I haven't used a belt on the bench since
Theres this kid who Im sure he has some sort of autism, probalby asperberg. He paces around the gym all the fucking time in between sets, has an alarm to rest between the sets, wears awful school shooter glasses and the according haircut. He flexes his arms against his torso ho we looks awkward af, and talks and annoys the hell out of everyone
Seen couple times the same girl doing biceps curls on the rowing machine
Nice core and scapular strength, jeff likes this
I've seen a guy train his neck by going on all fours in front of a leg curl machine, then lifting the moving part with his head.
I've seen a guy wobbly deadlifting in his Kingdom Hearts looking running shoes, with almost stiff legs, catback and no bracing.
But the most stupid thing I've seen is a guy who only did halfrep squats with 180lbs for 8 reps, while being 210lbs shredded and then asking people why his legs won't grow, which they should because he rides his bike for 4 hours ever day. Low pace, low impact cardio for legs for 28 hours every week. And his legs just won't grow.
I always walk around with my mouth open since my nasal cavities aren't so good, and I need to breath hard after excercising. Didn't realize people were triggered by this.
I have the same issue. One of my nostrils is perpetually blocked, while the other fluctuated between open and kinda blocked. I don’t sit with my mouth wide open, but I do have like a half inch gap to let air in and out.
get surgery, recovery is painful but a good surgeon can fix it completely
literal mouth-breathers
Living on the edge, any rep could be his last.
Same here since last year, have to do something about it. Maybe it's a dust allergy.
>step back out of the rack a meter
Why walk out like 1.5 to 2 meters to do your ohp? are you so short it bangs against the safty catches?
no u
This is the first time I’ve heard of such a thing
A woman resisting sexual assault from a chad.
I LIKE JUICE
Only when I do cardio
I understand the need to move back
At my uni gym there is no racks, only cages. I thought nothing of it when I did ohp in the cage, warm up, no weight just a bar BANG I fucking hit the top of the cage. Some gyms suck dick for people who are not midgets (i’m Only 182 cm)
I know this sounds stupid but sometimes i go workout with a t shirt and jeans on. I want to try to make people laugh, even at the expense of myself, because i know someone in there just had a shitty day and is trying to forget it at the gym. I figure i may be brightening someone's day, even if its just a little.
>mocking weighted neck dangles to failure
>probably has a neck like a toothpick
NGMI
Lol
You're a good man
Dont confuse cringe and humor, especially not at the expense of your self-respect
>autobots, roll out
I go to the gym at 6am and for the last few months a chubby girl has been coming at 6am every morning aswell. The stupid thing is that despite her dedication to the gym, she only lifts 2 or 3 kg weights and does like 5 minutes of cardio at a very moderate pace to warm up. As a result, during the last few months she has made absolutely 0 progress. Idk what's the point of being so disciplined when progression seems to be such a foreign concept to her. I'm too afraid of coming out as a jerk if I try to give her advices and at 6am there is no coach in the gym to tell her what to do. The waste of time is real
>advices
>I am the more advanced model
this is actually called knee hyperextension. michael phelps has it to a smaller extent. i have it to, 99% of the time unnoticeable because I make it a point not to hyperextend them during weight bearing movements
(like this individual) as it puts stress on the joints
Should have mounted his ass on the spot
do you think maybe she comes in hope that you'll talk to her?
holy shit my fucking sides.
I coom to your pics.
