so the gyms about to close and the girl who puts away the plates is carrying a curl bar with 25's on each side (no clips). she walks right by me and then BOOMSQUAADDD both plates hit the floor, one missing my foot by a couple inches.

So trainer walks around with obvious gym newb, doing things as BP with a throw at top, one legged leg press with opposite arm DB press, step up on bench one armed press with terrible form etc. Was quite entertaining yet sad how bad a payed coach programs for a beginner, I wonder what progression he has planned for him on the BP throw. 25% chance the client was a poker player since im on malta and he was white so maybe he will read this.

does "sup bro" still mean anything to 2p2ers, or would it be too confusing at the gym?

"sup bro" is like a totally normal greeting for 90% of gym goers?

Start a conversation and add lol benchaments or something like that and you should be able to tell if the guy is 2p2 or not

wouldn't donkaments be more appropriate to really figure it out?

If he reacts to 'benchaments' you're still going to be wondering if he's actually 2p2 or not.

im 99% sure im from 2p2 and if someone says "lol benchaments" or "lol donkaments" im definitely going to act like i have no idea what's going on and then posting in GGO about how weird 2p2 lurkers are

If there was any chance he was going to read this he wouldnt be doing that routine with a bro trainer

Indian guy (who smelled really musty ldo) supersetting curls in the squat rack, 95lb bench, and standing on the incline spotter platform and doing reverse clean curls with just the bar. He had on jeans and didn't rack any of his weights when he was done.

yeah while we're being anti-indian, idk why most indian people at every gym i've been to wear polo shirts and long adidas sweatpants. the polo shirt thing is esp weird/tilting

Saw a high school bro supersetting 3 diffrent weights for his underarm curls, I guess it was underarm day...

lifting in polos is elite

Yeah he also had on a polo shirt.

observations about chinese and indian dudes at the gym ITT are pretty spot on

Chinese dudes in china are the rudest gym people on the entire planet.

Post missing a story.

cuz polos were originally athletic wear? Thank god nobody wears a sports jacket to the gym.

futurama clip of asian girl wearing sweatsuit and getting upset cuz she has to jog home and it's gonna get her sweatsuit all sweaty

edit

.flv

don't know what you mean by sports jacket, but sport coat to gym has to be the biggest and most awesome Alpha-bro move.

Ran into one of my biggest pet peeves tonight, 4 guys and 2 girls who all work out together decided to do dumbbell BP today... they literally had all sorts of DBs strewn everywhere around them and they took up 2-3 benches. You couldnt even get to the racks without tripping over their weights.... I get that you do not want to keep re-racking them or whatever but keep them in order or something....

And also if you have 2 spotters how about you dont drop the weights every time, though I did get a little bit of a chuckle to myself as one guy was doing decline DB BP and no one was really watching him and he was oh so close to smashing one into his face.

How does the spotters grab the DBs? Like...grab the weighted ends? Seems a little weird. If I'm doing any decent weight, I'm dropping those DBs. I'm not flinging them away from me, which I've seen guys do, but I'm not going to be waiting on them or hoping they simultaneously grab both DBs or something...

They bro-spot from the elbows.

Are you guys doing 1 rep maxes with dumbells or something that you have to drop them? Just sit up with them and set them down or re-rack them.

Im going to the gym after work. Ill take some pictures of how they leave the equipment.

In the past i have been very passive-aggressive about these mongrol idiots re-racking their weights. At first i would just rerack other peoples weights hoping they would get the idea, but they didnt. So i would take it a step further and go out of my way to leave my weights exactly where it would bother people. It got to the point where a man (whom i know doesnt re-rack his weights) would be resting inbetween sets on an incline bench and i would leave my weights on the seat.

Im trying not to pick fights with these morons because when a white guy fights a Chinese dude in china hes doesn't its not just 1 white guy and 1 Chinese dude, its 1 white guy and the 40 other Chinese dudes who for some reason feel they need to defend some guy who is clearly in the wrong, whom they dont even know.

Rosie.. You've got issues dude.
