Decided to go to a 24 hour fitness in a rural area today. Some fat fuq tradie started staring the chit out of me for no reason. I stared back and the mfer starts raging at me. I take my airpods out rdy to fight this mfer and turns out hes a gey ****ort srs. He had the high pitch voice and everything. Literally all you would notice from his appearance is that he is a low iq tradie. I had no idea what to do so i put my head down and just walked out of the gym. Didn't even finish my workout srs. Can't even hold frame and assert dominance in this country anymore.

How do you guys deal with gym idiots?

I go to workout - I don't go to show off or to act macho or some ****, I know there are millions of guys all over the world much bigger and muscular then me.

I'm from VA - I live in NYC, been here for 3 years as I work here.

It's a small town - I get a lot of looks/attention coz I'm from VA, I'm white and also pretty well defined compared to the local crowd. I don't hang around with my friends in groups here, I do my stuff alone with my music.

There is a couple of guys, like 3 or 4, typical gym idiots that walk around like they are big and say hello to everyone as if they are really friendly, say hello to all the girls - always come in a group of them, No definition - Ok a little bit muscular but nothing to look at and always at the beginning trying to walk around me or something.

Last month kind of pissed me off coz on purpose one would stand really near me and do his workout while I'm working out and his friends would look on from a distance. So I put my weights down and just went upto him and said I'm not gay so move away from me coz there is more than enough space around you.

They got kind of surprised and since then they stay away from me but always trying it now and again when they are in their groups.

The little "leader" of the group tried it sometime ago with my ex - when I was with her, he was trying to get friendly with her then he realized she is with me and he backed off. Since then he's always had something against me and I just hate the look of him and his little over the top friendly image to all the girls who think he is a "nice guy"

Today in the gym, he was watching me from a distance so obviously and I gave him a really dirty stare back until he looked away. I kept my eyes on him from a distance and saw him talking to some dude, a new friend of his.

Next thing I know this friend of his comes walking towards me suddenly all agressive and is like - "How long you gonna' be on that machine? I need it, you been there ages"

I took my headphones off and said to this guy chill the **** out, I'll be 5 minutes but if your like that, I'll be 20 minutes

I know his little leader friend must of said **** to get this guy worked up - this guy then just walked off back to this leader friend and I saw them talking **** again like pussies so then I got pissed and went to this new dude and said -

If you want to cry like a big baby you can go and use your machine now...Then I said, There is a way to ask for equipment, I'm 27 I don't cry and get stressed, how old are you?

He is like 31

I replied act like it and ask me properly...then he was like...it's cool man it's cool

And this idiot leader friend is just watching quietly in the background

..

Then I waited for this new dude and then I just started talking to him relaxed asking him where he is from and then he started asking me back where I'm from and what I do here etc etc etc and then it was cool - in the meantime this idiot leader friend all the time is just watching in the background...he's such a dick...he basically hasn't got the balls to say something to me and he is always trying something and wanting to talk ****, and he kind of pepped up this new dude to come to me and try and "scare" me but it didn't work then they backed off again.

I hate guys like that - pointless.

..

Anyone had stupid experiences like this in gyms with groups of guys trying it on you sometimes? Intimidation whatever you wanna' call it? How do you backfire it on these punk asses

This leader guy I mention, I really would like to swing him one - but I don't want to be the idiot who gets kicked out of the gym, more so me living in a foreign city.It

How did you know he was a tradie?

Not only did he interrupt your workout he sent you home. Just lol

Either you know or don't know

If you can’t tell I got bad news papi.
