People who hog a bench, weights, machine, etc. Pretty standard.

People who drop dumbbells. Eventually damages the floors and then the dumbbells themselves. Total lack of respect. I think some of them think the harder you drop the harder you look. To me they look the opposite.

If you can put them down in a controlled manner, dont pick em up.

So there's this older African American dude that I see on a daily basis. He's basically my hero because he doesn't give a shit. He used to be borderline annoying, but now I admire him lol.

He comes in everyday, wearing sunglasses the whole time, sits down on a bench, pounds two energy drinks, starts working out. 20 minutes into his workout, he gets super pumped up and just walks around from station to station yelling shit like "LETS GET IT" "YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS" "ALL DAY EVERYDAY"

Shit is hilarious to me now. It's like a show every time I catch him there

We got one guy who never unloads his bars. Finally got him this morning when he left the bench I typically use loaded.

I asked him are you finished as he had 185lbs on it. He looked kind of bewildered.....then said yeah....should I unload it?

I told him snidely He should always rack his weights....but not to worry as I would just use it for my warm-up set.

Yeah....he comes in looking like someone from a fitness Expo. I pretty much look like a bum off the street.

So he's had this air of superiority complex from the start. He won't last long though. They never do.

My gym is pretty hard-core. Once he gets some gym chalk on his new shoes....he will bail...Lol.

Sounds cringe worthy. Hate the current "look" of the fitness industry, well I guess I dislike the fitness industry in general. Just trying to make money off anything they can, especially when it comes to bullshitting up new compounds and stuffing those lies down the uneducated's throat hahaha. They'll figure it out one day.

My gyms unfortuantely not as hardcore, and it's pretty cheap at just $10/mo so I frequently see these types of people

My god we have this one girl I see ever so often that comes in and I swear is following a Westside program or something. Squat, Bench, Deadlift, and Overhead Press. That's it.

On a 1-10 in looks...she's maybe a 6. On the body scale she is a 20+!

She came in this morning in a pair of tight gray shorts with the bottom of her ass cheeks hanging out. She headed to the squat rack and I thought Oh No...but she ended up doing Barbell presses.

But still had to bend over between sets to write her lifts in her notebook. I had to go into the back room of the gym and pick a different exercise as it was pretty obvious everyone in the room she was in just stopped working out and was watching her.

Something about that type who with no make-up and looks like the "girl next door" but still looks good kills me!

Waiting on only incline machine this morning, went to decline right next to it just to wait it out. Guy is more jacked than me, does a set... wanders off, 5m later mozeys back on over and does a set...wanders off. Many minutes later guy comes back around from another part of the gym and sits down on it, then gets up and immediately, takes his earbuds out to walk over to this guy to catch up on life..

smh I immediately stop my set, walked over and politely interrupted the convo to ask how much longer he's gonna be. Little back and forth to which I end up saying you should do your last set now . He did.

I do drop sets however I put the dumbbells back on the rack. I do a set, rack the dumbbell pick up a lower weight, rack it and pick up a lower weight. What bugs me is the guy with 3 sets of dumbbells under his bench while he sits their scanning through FB on his phone.

You prefer it on the decline, where it can run down your back

Nice. Being more jacked gives him no excuse to be doing what he did. He doesn't own the place! Never understood why most of the people that you see with decent builds act so douchey.

My favorite thing is going in at an off time on the weekend. You see these guys everywhere. Walking around the gym between sets looking like their carrying suitcases with their ILS (Imaginary Lat Syndrome).

I come in dressed like a bum, and you can feel them looking you up and down sizing you up.

After I am warmed up and if I feel like it, I may strip down to a tank top. After that, they don't want to be around me!

Had an awesome workout this evening other than this guy in the corner of the gym where the dumbells were. He was clearly ripping ass and had no shame as he let it out a couple of times and it smelled like death. No shame that he even did it in front of women. Is that inconsiderate or was he being a douche bag?
