You can get the Ebola virus from as little as a hand shake,and that’s without any cuts, just regular broken skin we live with day to day.
I’d hate to pull excessively hard on a bar with no gloves while the hiv is on it .
I know I’m comparing apples to oranges , but I’m a hypochondriac lol

guys who gym hardcore but still look DYEL status after 3 years

like i see u everyday but your still benching 135

The one thing that really grinds my gears...standing inches away from the dumbell rack! Then I can't get, put back previously mentioned dumbbells. It drives me crazy. I pretend that the dumbell rack is radioactive. Anything past 5 seconds and you get cancer and die.

And earlier in the day I trolled through this thread and read a few pages of comments. Well, to make a short story long....I went to the gym during lunch at work today which is not my usual time. I go at 5 am generally but that is irrelevant, just thought I'd mention it anyway. Where was I? Oh right, noon. Lot of people I've never seen before. I spoke to no one which is kind of my thing. I go to the dumbell rack and see some dude shadow boxing in front of the mirror in between a set. I did cringe a bit....he did it for a decent amount of time as well. Besides that tomfoolery it was a pretty good day in the gym.

How about the guy who's had multiple shoulder surgeries and he wants you to "spot" him while he attempts 315. Except he needs you to fully put those 315lbs back on the rack...

Someone who spots someone and does half the work lifting it with him and says ITS ALL YOU BRO ITS ALL YOU.

film it brah fkn lol

weightlifting gyms are cringe, everything about them

join a boxing gym where people actually train hard and everyone are bros that help each other and no social media selfie taking *******s.

This girl I know does that **** with Snapchat.

Honestly, almost everything about the whole fitness culture makes me want to die

Guys in stringers
Guys grunting during rep work/when not necessary
Anybody using bumper plates
Dropping the bar at the top of deadlifts (literally dropping, I'm even okay with throwing it down after a big lift, but that gay 'drop' people do where they just let go is so ****ing cringe)
Girls doing band work (fuk off with those stupid ****ing bands around your legs god damn)
Girls covered in VSX Lulu Nike or any of those stupid big name fitness brands like Alphalete
Beats over ear headphones
"LVFIT" aka that stupid livefit brand or whatever "city" FIT brand
People doing walking lunges across the entire gym (is it really necessary???? just do them stationary if the gym doesn't have an area for it)
Spandex anything
Barbell Brigade anything
Oly shoes during entire workouts/accessory work
Selfies or recording in the gym, even worse when they do retakes or watch the footage immediately after

"Oly shoes during entire workouts/accessory work"

lol wtf am I supposed to do after my squats. Change shoes to do some leg extensions? One bag of gym equipment is enough instead of carrying every possible thing I might need for a one hour workout.

I can mostly keep it to myself, but might be the reason people complain about people eye balling them.


Yes, we have deemed you less worthy.

Wtf is wrong with a stringer? I get fukin hot when I work out and I look fawkin joocy.

What’s the big deal with wearing hoodies? I wear them all the time.
