I've seen that a lot.

And they're usually hogging the squat rack while they do barbell curls with 5lbs on each side.

There an older asian guy that comes into my gym regularly and works out with gloves exactly like these:

For all I know they're excellent for lifting, but they just seem really out of place lol. :)

They always have to be prepared to roll up the collar and do the indian dance if they see a hot indian chick. It's just the way.

Most of the Indian people I know like to dress very well. Expensive clothes, high end designers, etc. So polos are like t-shirts to them.

Never noticed that Indians do this, but now that I think about it...

For some reason, my gym seems to have a mix of the gym rats wearing expensive shoes and workout cloths and the "I just bought a membership, and I already feel more in shape" type of people that wear jeans and other out of place clothes. I guess I hadn't noticed this specific bit until now.

The old guy with the work gloves for lifting is a bit humorous, though.

I always grin when I see people wearing hoodies indoors.

Really? That seems like a really odd thing to get amused by. It's cold outside, they wear a sweatshirt. Do you want them to take it off immediately upon entering a building?

I hope you are referring to having the hood up, but even that is an odd thing to be amused by.

Are you talking about at the gym? Because they're doing that to make themselves sweat more and/or keep themselves as warm as possible between exercises.

think it's so if they want to boost their performance, they can just pop the collar and boom! 10% increase.
