Why are men so stupid in the gym? LIKE FOR REALS!!!!

Hi, OP, someoneminorpecker is a dickhead.

Just sayin.

Let's break down your post here:



Really? Sandals? That's what you notice?

I notice them grunting for the entire gym to hear at the slightest lift. Not to mention the "I MUST DROP THE BAR ON MY LAST REP BECAUSE THIS IS SO INTENSE!"



if someone is trying to gain weight (which most retard meat heads in the gym likely are), what's wrong with carbs?



I don't wipe down every machine I touch either. Suck it. I don't really give a shit. God forbid your immune system get a workout too. What's next? Do we need to wipe down every machine with hand sanitizer after each use too?

I swear the US will implode and everyone will die simply based on weak immune systems.

You being annoyed by grunting invalidates the rest of your toughguy argument.

Toughguy argument? not sure what you mean. I'm certainly not advocating for being Mr. toughguy, I'm not a meathead that works out 24/7.

That said, grunting is the most annoying shit of all time - along with dropping the weight on the last rep. Maybe yours is more crowded or has music playing or something - but in my gym there is no doubt these fucking retards do that simply to try to gain attention. It's pretty much the equivalency of a girl that has her tits out on display... They are actively TRYING to get you to look at them.

Learn to swim instead of working out (swimming is better for you anyway) and buy a house by the ocean or with a pool or both. Problem solved.

Just don't pee in it.

Go away griffin.

You mean I have been wrong all these years? I thought lifting weights and eating excess calories was how someone could add muscle mass. I must also be wrong in thinking that drinking red bull during a workout might boost energy levels and allow someone to workout a little harder than they normally would.

I'm sorry for being such an idiot. I will go away now.

I go gym 3-4 times a week for 1 hour and every freaking time I always see someone wearing flip flops and sandals in the gym. What's up with that? Are they trying to show off their toe muscles or something? I am not done yet... why the ********************* are you taking red bull and monster energy drinks with you? Are you dumb? If I'm not mistaken people go to the gym to lose weight, stay fit and build muscle etc so why the ***** are you drinking 20 teaspoons of diabetuscozade?

I swear to god men are dumb as hell.

Oh and why do men never wipe the sweat of the machines? WOOOOOOOOOOOW that is why I never touch the machines because the seat and back are full of fungus and diseases.

Surely I'm not the only person witnessing this.

FYI I do cardio and yogo class and I have my own matt I ain't got time to sit on someones dirty ass yoga matt. Disgusting. Disgusting men.


edit - I forgot to add. WHY the HELL do I sometimes see men wearing COATS and 9000000 layers of clothing???????????? ARE YOU REALLY THAT COLD????????????? LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO dumbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

I don't believe you. Pics of you in your yoga outfit or ban.

Not married. It's complicated...

Which almost always means that you aren't married but the chick you are banging is. Not judging bro, just saying...

I used to find people at the gym annoying too. The ones I hate are the ones that take like 5 machines and just rotate between them. They'll make sure to be clear about not wanting someone to use it. Some people would be nice to let you take turns though so like you do a set then they get on and do theirs and so on. That I did not mind too much.

In general I prefer to work out at home though. I bought a weight set a few years back and don't go to the gym anymore.



Right now my basement is a disaster though been doing work, so my weight set is not in a usable state until I'm done. I kinda can't wait to get back at it again.

I hope you were not serious because every gym that I joined has a specific rule that will kick you out if you do not wipe after you are done with a machine. No, we are not talking about shiny clean but wipe your sweat off the contact (to skin) parts of any machine.

How about your toilet habit? Do you wash your hands after you are done or that would be too much germ phobia?

Yeah when I went to the gym there was a cleaner bottle and rag to wipe down when you were done.

what I do wonder is how often they actually changed those rags...

Definitely not.

Why? You fit right in.

Aren't those the best kind? :biggrin;

 

[snarfbot]

do you even lift bro?

 

[thebestMAX]

I wipe down the machines before I use them. Makes more sense to me. I also go right home to shower and dont use theirs. After 10 years at L.A.Fitness for ~$40 a month I just joined Planet Fitness for $10. All the weights and machines I ever used, much closer to the house, less crowded and cleaner. Only downside is no pool but I never used that anyway.
Drop the weights there and you get buzzed. LOL

While I don't like the grunters and weight droppers, that's just laughable to me. It's a gym.

Cool horns.

 

[purbeast0]

I always LOL at these types of threads that pop up on here. It's funny to see people who don't know anything about working out talk about working out. It reminds me of when I was in 5th grade talking about boobies and vaginas.

 

[SlitheryDee]

The flip flops and sandals thing doesn't bother me. I wouldn't do it because I'd like at least a small amount of protection from falling things, but if someone else wants to do it more power to them.

I also don't blame anyone for the energy drinks. I know red bulls and the like are supposed to be terrible for you, but you can drink them before a workout for the sole purpose of increasing your performance or helping you get a workout in on a day when you aren't feeling up to it. For people whose main goal is to properly stimulate their muscles in order to encourage growth, being able to put more effort in might outweigh the caloric hit they take for it. If you can work it into your diet so that your calories and macros are still ok it probably doesn't hurt anything. Both companies also make low carb/no carb versions as well.

I'm definitely with you on the wiping down of machines though. If you're willing to put in all the effort and work required to build a decent body, you should be able to do the comparatively minor task of cleaning up after yourself. There's no excuse for it.

The coat thing falls under the "I don't care what you wear to the gym" heading. I don't see how people can be that cold while exercising either, but if it makes them comfortable, whatever.

 

[JimKiler]

OP flat shoes are good for certain kinds of lifting like dead lifts. I often see my co workers in socks for those exercises.

Also what is up with your language? Who writes "LIKE FOR REALS!!!!" I mean gag me with a pitchfork!

Staph infections are fun.

Redbull is never good. Who drinks Redbull LIKE FOR REALS!!!!

Hell yes they are, my favorite too! When they need a tire changed or want some jewelry or whatever they ask their husband, when they want some good sex they call me. Win/Win

 

[Darwin333]

I lift every day, 12oz at a time...

 

[Darwin333]

In all seriousness, the only people at the gym that sort of annoy me are the ones who yell or grunt way too damn loud. I just see that as them screaming "oooh, look at me" but it doesn't annoy me to the point of thinking about it for more than a nanosecond or so. Generally I don't give a shit about what anyone else is doing or wearing unless it's a hot chick in really tight spandex or something of course.
