the fact that I don't go to the gym

*conservative crew*
*son or coathanger crew*
*women shouldn't be allowed to vote crew*
*always tells the truth even if it hurts crew*

I never said they were a good indicator, just said that I have really strong dips for some reason.

I am not there to socialize. I learned that the hard way with creepers I have dealt with.

It's kinda hard now cuz my current gym is basically in a retirement community. Average age is basically 55 and over. They all want to make small talk all the time. They basically use it as a social hour. I fukkin have to mean mug and avoid eye contact the whole time.

I squat.
I'm timing my rest periods with my phone.
I'm actually working hard.

I actually offer to spot people when I see them grinding on the bench and having trouble with the last rep of their last set.

I don't pay attention to anyone at the gym except me.

I rarely go to chain gyms like 24Hr Fitness/LA Fitness, but when I do I'm usually the only one who oly lifts and outlifts just about everyone in the gym (which isn't really hard to do as 90% of the bodybuilders that look big at these gyms are actually weak as ****). My ATG squats are generally heavier than the quarter squats the BBers do.

Basically nothing. Outside of being one of 3-4 girls that regularly lift. And I guess most don’t lift and do cardio, I usually shove some weights around for 1h-1h20 and 30-45 min on the elliptical. Also train upper body too and don’t do weird IG booty stuff bc they don’t work. But that’s about it, nothing really sets me apart.
They said she's gone too far this time
