WTF: Why come to a gym and talk about food for the whole workout?

Damn these two loud fat bodies....in the way of everyone it seemed, sitting on machines, doing like 1 set every 5 minutes...and all they are doing is 'loud talking' about au jus, this cream sauce, some great burger, etc....then I had to listen to Joe Business man talk about how women like to be directed and he doesn't even ask anymore...if he is getting a room they are staying....there is no option apparently and all the women go along with it 'since they are so impressed' he takes charge.

I need to loose the little tire I have 🙂 18 months off and a lot of bad eating and not much activity (mostly dealing with getting married, INS for my japanese wife and finding a place to live)....

Arms are tight as hell, same with my legs, only going on my 13th workout (about 3 weeks now).

So what I am looking for is a couple :cookie;'s so I have something to throw to the piggies at the gym.

Thanks 😉

Yeah I really can't stand some of the people that go to the gym and act like they own the place but all they do is hang out at the bench press for like an hour and a half and lift maybe like twice? The most annoying are the loud talkers that make them selves out to be bad azzez when you can see they are all talk. I guess there are jerks everywhere and I know better.
 
I find the kinda beefy guys who act like they're 6'4" 320 lbs, with 6% body fat more annoying... walk around swinging their arms because their muslces are just so big they can't put their arms straight down... and their thigh muscles are so big they can't walk normal, they have to walk like they just pooped their pants and are trying not to squish it all over and have it fall out.
 
i cant say much cause i hardly go to the gym.. although i should.. and when i do all i can think about is food. i have the mentality of a fat person. but im not. getting there though 🙂 at least i dont talk about it all loud.. besides once in a while saying "im hungry" to my friend ... i dont think that bothers people too much?
 
Bring some music or watch the TVs (if they've got em). I usually don't pay attention to conversations around me because I'm too occupied thinking about keeling over.

You jealous? 😉
 
My wife use to go to a woman's gym. There was this incredibly fat dirty smelly lady that would go every day, and for her workout clothes she would wear this extremely short skirt. And my wife would always get stuck on the opposite side of the gym of her when she was doing her rounds, and she had to put up with this beast spreading her legs and flashing. A lot of people complained about it and eventually didn't renew, like my wife. 😀

The thing I hate the most are guys that talk on cell phones at the gym. Or even worse, walkie talkies. They need to die. The thing I love is the guys that scream when lifting. That is hilarious and I consider it free entertainment.

I was laughing my ass off the other day at the gym. There were 3 guys lifting (on machines, no less), and they were the loudest lifters I have ever heard. They were spotting one another "Fvck you! Gimme one more you fvck!!!" etc. Then, they would finish the set, get up, and scream "FVCK!!!" at the top of thier lungs.

It was really quite entertaining. I'm surprised they didn't call the cops on these asshats.

Sounds like the beginning of a gay porno...

I'm sure that is purely a conjecture and not based from personal experience...

yeah I see these types on the threadmills a lot....most of the treadmill people are wasting their time since they are not even getting their heart rate up, yet alone breaking a sweat.

The morons that scream are classic. Right now I am in the 'getting back into shape phase' so you get the morons that will come around to just try to impress you with their strength....what usually happens is around my 3rd month I start embarrassing them back.
 
it's OK to talk about food during the workout.. depends on what you are doing 😉

with my program, i have to workout, then go home and pig out.. so it depends.. if they are uber fat, and doing only cardio, then there are problems 😀
 
No, the worst is when you are doing a variation of one of the "standard" workouts (like closed or wide grip) and some overweight 50 yr old comes up and tells you "you're doing that all wrong... this is how you do it <insert standard way>". That pisses me off the most. One time, I was doing locked leg deadlifts at the gym with heavy weight, and this total scrawny dude had the nerve to tell me "You'll get a hernia if you don't use your legs"... it's like, yeah YOU will since your lower back is weak as hell... that's why I do these THIS WAY. Obviously If I'm repping with over twice what you weigh, I know what I'm doing, so don't try to correct me unless you're Arnold or something. People think that if some idiot high-schooler personal trainer showed them once how to do the basic exercises and they lift for a week straight that they know everything there is to know about weight lifting.

I also love the idiots at the gym that tell you to "put your feet up on the bench, because it isolates your chest muscles and will make them grow faster". Sorry to break it to you buddy, but your an idiot.

damn, i completely agree with you and just reading your posts it makes me angry. I love going to my school gym because there's no old guys to say stupid crap like this. When I went to Bailey's... oh my god. Who do these once a week old farts think they are?? These are the retards still reading Body for Life and using the machines and crap like that
....ARGGGGGGGGGH IT PISSES ME OFF!!!
 
I hate those guys who, instead of grunting, hisses like a machine releasing air pressure.

I'll simulate it for you all. Ssssssssssssss, <lift down>, Ssssssssssssss, <lift down>, ... repeat

yes! these types of people are freaking nuts....especially when they say things like 'you know you aren't really working your trapezzier/pectorialiuses/bicepius branches muscles when you do that'

When I am back in shape I usually will flex the muscle, poke it and comment 'seems to work mine fine'
