You wear the same workout gear for each and every session
Your vest has Golds Gym on the front
Said vest is ripped around the edges (cos your so huge and pumped after sessions its ripped like the Hulk does to his shirts!)
You ask a person doing a ‘power clean what does that do then? I have never used them and I can bench 150kilos.’
You have a shaven head and tattoos - cos thats the look!
You ask any half decent looking girl if they need a spotter for their bum and tum exercises
You leave your mark on the gym every time you leave - a complete mess!
Your idea of full range of motion is anything that requires the joint to move from being locked out and then back again
You wear a belt for every exercise and advocate them especially for good mornings - yes I have actually heard this said!
Said belf isnt even fastened toght and wear wears it cos he is in a gym and has seen other meat heads wearing them
You pick up extra ordinarily large dumbells and attempt some sort of distorted movement with them which results in large amounts of pain, but claim your back and knees wont take squatting!
My favorite is always the guy who should be working with 150lbs repping 225lbs using an anguished 8inch ROM.
Quick Story:
yesterday I witnessed a guy spend about 20min improvising his own apparatus (a bench from which he could perform a bent row) using a decline bench, a wood box and about 18 plates of different sizes to get the angles just right. The big payoff came when he managed to climb on board this thing, get in position and smash the first attempted rep off of the support bar under the decline (suprise!) which permitted him almost zero room to pull the weight (20 min!!). I was not suprised to look closer and see he was using a 45lb bar with 5lb plates.
Anyway, its a student gym so nothing ever suprises me anymore.
Your neck, ankles, calves and biceps are all the same size…
You get out of your car slumped over, shuffle your feet, until within sight of the treadmill window, then you walk with a PLS (permanent lat spread).
You can press 1500 lbs on the leg press but only squat 185 lbs to parallel with free weights.
You get upset when people are squatting in the power rack, which prevents you from doing your bicep curls.
My favorite weenies are the guys doing squats and deads and any other weight exercise on swiss balls.
One of the worst things I have seen is what I call the spinal destroyer.
completely straight legged stiff leg deadlift with fully rounded back and slamming the weights to the floor as hard as you can before ripping it back up to the starting position.
OUCH!!
Apologizes, ( B. Johson )
yestarday i watched for the 10th time the movie Rocky IV Russian Battle( Sly X Dolph Lundgreen. ).
And always that i saw Apollo Creed Coaches i thought that he looks like Ben, not Apollo but his coach, with those big and white eyes,
don´t you think ?
I don´t know the name of the actor…even if he runs fast…
we have a guy at our gym we call ‘no gain’ been coming forever consistently, and hasn’t made any gains in 3 years!
oh and for those interested, saw joanne molar in the gym the other day!
she told me she’s back in training. amazing what 5-6 hours of training per day does to the body. not a drop of fat! After seeing her i was set for the day.
90 lb skeletons who are on the treadmill when you walked into the gym and are still there 90 min later when you are walking out.
Pudgy girl doing Bicep curls 3 x 20 with 4lbs as “want toned muscles not big muscles”–good use of gym time! Failing to notice that the fit girls with “tone” are in the corner doing squats.
90% of Aerobics instructors… I am just not going to finish this sentence. Why girls do not do a complete 180 when they walk into class and look at the “instructor” I have no idea.
I’ve seen a couple of Indian guys in my gym who do really heavy quarter squats with minimal range of motion, but I don’t really think they’re weenies - at least they’re working hard.
The biggest gym weenies in my opinion are people who go to the gym and don’t push themselves to make progress.
