Weirdos at the gym

[twizzbeats]

I don't get it!!! where the hell do these people come from?

Everyone of you must agree that there are some complete fucking freaks at your local gym.

I work out in the moring during the week. I figure anyone that gets up at 5am to get to the gym for 6am is dedicated and just wants to work out and get the hell out of there right.

I work out at this Y in Winnipeg Canada. it's brand new, awesome equipment and everything.

I walk in at 615 am start my shoulder work out. I saw this girl doing squats. cool whatever, then after she starts dancing from side to side. to keep the pump going I suppose. She looked like a depressed robot moving back and forth. head down like she had no nrg like she was doing it half assed because she had to. I watched her do that for 20 minutesd then do a set of squats and then keep on dancing. with this puzzled retarted look on her face.


then on the weekend I work out around 4-5pm. there is this weird bald dude that goes into the aerobics room and does the steps thing for 2 hours straight, just stiff. Steps up on the platform hand up, turns around other platform same thing. he will do this until he is covered in sweat. no emotion just a blank look like arobot that is malfunctioning.

I can go on and on about the weirdos.

my point is this where the hell do these people come from? Do they bus them in? all at strategic parts of the day to make sure that everyone has an encounter of a abnormal kind. I know each and everyone of you see this kind of weird shit daily.

On one good note atleast I don't have people whacking off at me like Cory does. :laughnew:

Ive seen shit left and right at different gyms Ive been to.

There was this one time on the gym i go to. This man was working out good, he was about in his 50's or so. Pretty big dude, but the only thing was he had a huge beer belly. Im the middle of my workout, i see the gym outside drinking some beer. Whata waste of worktout time there.

Also some dude a while back who had barely joined. My buddy was doing chest that day and waiting on the incline bench cause the new guy was using it. The new guy probably spend like an hour sitting between sets. He would do a set and probably wait about 5-10 minutes looking at himself in the mirror and just without moving. Werid, reminded me of a manniquin.

One of the most fucked up shit is there some guy we call "spot". For everything the guy needed a spot. No matter if it was a machine he was using. He was once using a bench press machine and he needed a spot. I was like i cannot spot u on this one. Even worst, the weight he was using was too light. He took alot of time away from other people who were serious about working out.

One that made me laugh was another new fat guy that entered. The guy is in high school, probably a senior. Well Im 24 right now, been training since I was 14 years old. Im pretty well built, gotten good size through the years, been cut before, and all. So I know what do to and what works for me. Well a good friend on mine joined this month. So far so good, my buddy has been sticking to it and making good progress. This BIG FAT dude comes over to him and tell hims not to do straight bar curls. That those dont work and to do preacher curls instead. Hahahaha, he told him to have a spotter and do as many reps as he can with some middle-weight, then take off some weight and do as many as he can reps with that weight. I was like wtf? He was telling my buddy that that will make u grow big time. I was teeling my friend come on please, the guy is a walking lard and has no muscles, still in high school, and barely started working out and he's giving u advice.

Some people amaze me at time. One more, like this one time at the gym i was doing leg presses, pretty heavy to me at the time 900lbs. I had my postition in a way i feel comfortable and all, then comes this little skinny runt probably around 130 pounds and tells me Im not doing them right. I was like "why"? He was telling me your have to position your feet this way and do it this form. Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

Damn people. Just funny what some people do and say. Im just like, ah yeah ok. I go along with it. I dont listen to anyone.

I'm the same way I keep to myself, but this guy almost hit me with his imaginary bat a couple times :D

I go to Bally's and this dude dresses up in his boxing uniform and fights himself in the mirror. After he wins he puts his hands up in the air like hes the champ and dances around. This other wack job who has the worst form ive ever seen screams at the top of his lungs when he lifts. He sounds like a seagull being raped. Im convinced Bally's attracts some of the weirdest people. I could go on forever.

[twizzbeats]

the problem with me is I can't keep a straight face no matter what. I try the head down just do my set than I see some moron do something dumb and I start laughing.

The gym I go to is near a private school for asian people (no one speaks english), these high schoolers always come in wearing there suits and work out. They have the worst form I have ever seen, they look like Richard Simmons but lifting weights.... and one and two and lift those arms ladies. Curls are the most fun to watch.

:laughnew:

You should just take off running and catch the imaginary ball sometime, or just stan across the gym and pretend to pitch to him. Oh, even better, croutch down behind him and be the catcher.(yea yea, enter gay joke here).

:agree: That's me exactly--I'm pretty sure people think I'm a stuck up bitch, but I'm not there for them, so I don't care. This pretty much summarizes my feeling about the gym...http://www.animalpak.com/sub/PDF/GetOutOfMyFace.pdf
