Angry Weight Room etiquette.

Im tired of going to a weight room to train, and getting a nasty look or a "huffing" of someones breath if I ask for a spot. Like I am taking away from some panty wastes workout by asking him for a 30 sec. spot. I actually had this fricken stick keep his headphones turned up while I was trying to get him to lift off the bar. WTF is wrong with bruthas these days. I can remember watching Pumping Iron, and seeing everyone more then willing to stop their workout to help out a fellow bodybuilder.

I dont mind spitting on the floor, throwing plates into the wall, growling out when trying to hit that extra 2 reps or while going for a max. But Im getting to the point where Im not gonna ask people for a spot, Im gonna TELL THEM to give me a spot. I remember years back, telling people to get off a machine if I didnt see them worthy enough to be slowing down my workouts. Do I personally need to start raging in the weight room like this again to get some of you assholes to take 30 seconds to give a bro a spot. I go WAY out of my way to help EVERYONE in the weight room that asks for a spot, advice, or who asks if they can work in with me. So WTF is the problem with everyone else? My biggest complaint is the damn Buck 85 assholes in the gym that think their 16'' arms and 44'' chest is suppose to impress me when they walk by with their sleeves rolled up. LOL Come on now, I was bigger then that in 8th grade. These are usually the people with the attitudes. These are the people that can take 30 seconds out of their 30 set's of bi's routine to give me a spot. Fricken panty wastes. I shit bigger then these kids yet get looks asking for a spot. So, I think for now on I am gonna to walk up to someone in the weight room and just say "GIVE ME A SPOT!" And if someone rolls their eyes, I will make sure next time Im tossing around the 130's that I "accidentally" drop them on these assholes feet.

Just my 2cc's. Thanks for letting me rage for a minute.

I feel much better now! PEACE! KIR

Angry OK HELL WHILE I'M AT IT..........

If I find out who passes fricken gas in the gym and fricken makes me gag while Im trying for a max again, Im gonna follow them to the bathroom and duct tape their fricken heads the the urinal. I'm so sick and tired of these damn asshole and also the fricken French people who just came over on the boat and dont know how to shower and use deodarant. My fuse for these assholes too is VERY SHORT!

And another thing. For those 70y/o dirtbags that feel the need to walk around the gym coughing up a lung into their hands and then going to use the machines, dont piss yourself when I come up to you and make you wash down the machines. Im tired of your germ infested old asses making healthy people sick. If you cant stay heathly enough to make it to the gym without coughing up a lung....... STAY THE FUCK HOME GRANDPA!!!!!!!

Ahhhhhhhhhhh. OK, I promise, Im done here tonight. Cant beleive how much better I feel now though.

PEACE! KIR

KIR, How about the goofballs that sit on the machines for 5 minutes between sets,when you need it ? Especially if they`re reading a freaking newspaper. lol Another good one is the guy doing pansy ass curls in the squat rack, for set after set with no intensity,and 30 pounds. I could go on, but I don`t want to rile up that halo again bro! Oh well..... to hell with it, there`s the guy that talks all through his workout and goofs around ,then asks for advice as to how he can overcome a training plateau.Shut up and train!! Merry Christmas.

LOL Ski, no shit about the losers on the bench for 5 minutes between sets. Luckily my gym has 8 flat benches. But let me tell you, I got no problem walking up to some stick and telling him to get the fuck off a machine if he is doing this shit. Hell these machines are for everyone, not his personal machine to spend 30 minutes on. Usually I walk up to someone and say really nasty and firmly...."HOW MANY SETS YOU GOT LEFT" 99.9% of the time they tell me its their last set. LMAO GOOD ANSWER!!!!!! PEACE! KIR

What pisses me off is the assholes that sweat all over the benches and don't clean them off. Our gym has about 20 spray bottles with towels to clean off benches and machines after you are done using them and these fuckers are to lazy to do it.
