Public Gym Pet Peeves

[clipps]

Things about the gym or things people do at the gym that irritates you. Here's mine

- People that don't put weights/dumb bells back properly. Anytime that I get done with a weight/workout, I put the weights back in the proper spot accordingly, especially the weights for the bar bells. Can't count how many times I see a 25 lb plate behind 3 or 4 45 lb plates. The gym I go to at my home base, people are really bad about not putting the weights back properly. Someone will grab, for example, a single 50 lb dumb bell for triceps or pull overs, does their work out, but is too lazy to put the weight back with it's other 50 lb counter part. I'll see it next to the 130+ lb dumb bells

- People that don't wipe down the bench/machines after using the equipment. I know the gym is not necessarily the cleanest place due to people getting sweaty and people farting, but after your sweaty ass has been laying on the bench for 20 mins, at least use some common courtesy to wipe it down with the wipes that are conveniently located in almost every weight room of almost every public gym.

- People that use the flat bench bar-bell set-up for skull crushers. I used to be guilty of this one when I first started going to the gym, but I realized there are plenty of other places to do skull crushers at the gym and if can't do skull crushers, there are plenty of other tricep workouts that are effective. I understand people using the bar-bell bench for flies as long as it's supersets with the bench press, but the bench press station arguably the most common station at public gyms and qut hogging it when you are not using it for it's purpose.

- Whenever you "mark your spot" (Leave your water bottle/towel at a station while you use the bathroom so people know your using it), and some jack hole moves my stuff. I understand if I'm gone for a long time, but when I'm only gone for about a minute to go piss or grab some water, and my towel is left there, please use the common courtesy to leave the station open for me... ESPECIALY if there are already other stations open.

- Whenever someone smarts off or looks at you weird because you are giving friendly advice. Example, I see this guy squatting 225 lbs with his back curved. I didn't want him to hurt himself so I told him to keep his back straight and if he can't lift that weight with his back straight to make the weight lighter. He told me to go **** my self and that I have no idea what I'm talking about. Yea okay. I can rep 400 lbs squatting with correct form despite my skinny ectomorph frame.

- Whenever a buddy/co-worker decides to finally go with you and all they do is get in the way. I especially hate it when the person is lazy and I know before it even happens that all they are gonna do is mess around with 1 or 2 stations and then bothers you the rest of the time, and then starts getting mad because you are not carrying on a conversation with 200 lbs over your head. Me and one of my main buddies like to go to the gym and we like to talk a lot. But whenever we go to the gym, our workouts are a little different, we understand that we are there to lift, not BS and unless one of us asks for a spotter or when we occasionally run into eachother between sets, we leave eachother alone.

- That one guy that has to scream and growl on every rep. I understand if you are attempting a new max and you are close to getting up that 250 lbs or 300lbs that you've been working hard for, you grunt and growl a little bit. But I'm talking about the people that are growling on every single rep, especially when they can easily handle whatever weight they are lifting.

Agree on all but these two.

-People may not necessarily know how long you've been marking your spot, and it's not their responsibility to keep track of you. Stay or go.

-Mind your own business. Unsolicited advice is often unwelcome advice and, if you're not the guys friend (which apparently you weren't) he may not see it as friendly advice either. The guy you hate because he screams out his reps may have "guy that can't keep from interfering" on his list of public gym pet peeves.

[DaHeezy]

Lifting right at the dumbell rack. I hate having to wait for a guy to finish bicep curls or shrugs to get my weights. Pick up your dumbells and get out the way.

I think there was a gym etiquette thread a while back that was pretty good.

I understand your take on marking spots, but when it comes to advice, I tend to leave people alone because they do their own thing, but if I see someone lift unsafely, I'll politely let them know because I don't want to see them get hurt. I understand if the guy got irritated if, for example, I nitpicked that he wasn't going down all the way or if I made a big deal on someone's grip position on the bench, but if I'm giving someone advice to keep them from hurting him/herself, I shouldn't be getting a "go **** yourself" in response. It's not like I was telling him to fix his form in the middle of his set. He racked the weight, he looked like his lower back was sore so I gave him my 2 cents when I happened to walk by.

These 3 are the worst in my opinion, probably because they're the most common. I usually go with one friend of mine who works out as much as I do. When we go together, we don't talk at all until its been an hour or so and we are deciding when to leave.

Also, another pet peeve is when I see people I know at the gym. This happens every single time now because I've been at school for 4 years. The problem is that they want to have a long dragged out conversation about current events when you're either deathly thirsty or in the middle of a workout. I guess I need to get better at telling people to nicely shut up and leave me alone.

[clipps]

Another thing I hate is when people drop weights, mainly cabled weights. It's not the sound that pisses me off. It's the fact that the next day, I decide to go use the lat pull machine and I find out that it's out of order because some ding bat the day before let 100+lbs drop because he was too lazy to gently lower the weight. It's understandable when you drop dumbbells from about a foot high on a padded mat when you are done with dumbbell bench, but there's no excuse to be dropping weight... I'm looking at you MFers doing powercleans and decide to drop the weight from shoulder height.

[Crown&Coke]

-Hot girls who wear revealing clothing who get all upset when dudes watch them do stuff like walk around the gym all sweaty and boobies hanging out.

-Old dudes who post you up in the gym bball court and make you look foolish doing simple drop steps and give/go's. punk ass, NO FUNDAMENTALS allowed!

-The people who gab on their phones loudly while Im doing my stationary bike work and trying to watch some CNN or ESPNews or something of that nature.

Concur with the bolded pet peeve. I don't go to the gym to socialize. I go to watch some hotties struggle with weights and maybe get a couple sets in. My go to move is to let them say stuff, say something briefly and just walk away like an ass, they normally take the hint and leave me alone

I think I'm mostly in agreement with your small lack of agreement. I'm not sure the advice thing is as cut and dry as "to give advice or to not give advice". I think each situation is unique and yes, pride probably does often play a role in how receptive someone will be to such input. If someone really was in serious danger, then I think I'd consider such input more a safety precaution than mere advice.

Otherwise, if the fellow is on the path to a sore back, depending on his disposition and how open he may or may not appear to advice, it might just be something he needs to discover on his own. I'm not saying I'd be upset, but if a random stranger strolled by and felt it was necessary to instruct me not to hang on the rim when I dunk because it's not proper dunking technique and could lead to back problems, it'd at least be a little weird if nothing else.

Only clipps knows the exact situation though, so I can't really say how serious of a deal that particular instance was. I just know sometimes unsolicited advice can be annoying, like my dad critiquing my swing the one time each year we go golfing, or if I were to tell a stranger to bend at the knees and not the waist when they're picking up a can of soup at the grocery.

[rezznor]

when i'm sitting on a bench doing curls or dumbell presses or whatever, and some guy has to stand literally 2 feet in front of me so he can do his reps while looking in in the mirror.

:roll:

I forgot about this one. It is absolutely necessary to look at yourself, just to avoid the stupid looks on your face while in the middle of reps. And they grunt real loud

Ah, so you are one of those punks.

One of those punks who leaves a station and then comes back 15 minutes later and starts whining that somebody else took the station they weren't using.

No one likes waiting on your ass taking a rest, either use a station or don't use a station. Leaving it but "marking" it so you can use it later, that shit is for antisocial ******s. If you don't like other people using the stations don't go to a gym with other people.

Who cares how long it is or what the reason is. If you need to get water or take a piss, do it before or in between your routines. Why does anyone else need to wait on you taking a piss? You little queen. Fukc that.

[PowerGlove]

My biggest pet peeve is my neighbor is the naked guy at the gym I go to.:facepalm

He's always in the locker room just hanging out naked and shit. I change, do some cardio, play some ball, two hours later dude is in there chatting with one leg up on the bench. Sad thing is, he thinks we are like gym buddies and shit. He's always knocking on my door asking me if I want to come with him to the gym. I've never seen dude workout. He's creepy.

Taking soemone's spot because they walk away for less than a minute to get a drink of water is douchy. This happens to me and I always let the person know that I'm still working there. I could just easily stand around resting for a couple of minutes while "guarding" the spot, and no one would take it. What's the difference?

Now, the guys who stand around talking for 10 minutes in between sets......they're another matter altogether.

No. He didn't.

He said "I understand if I'm gone for a long time, but when I'm only gone for about a minute to go piss or grab some water, and my towel is left there..." so by his own admission, there are times when he's gone for a long time.

Why should it be up to other people in the gym to monitor when he left/how long he's been gone?

Yeah, the "Locker Room Guy". Every gym has one. I just change and get the **** out but there's always somebody ****ing around naked in the lockers. What the **** man.

Let me add to this.

The guy who takes a shower and then stands in front of the bathroom mirror butt naked just to check himself out. Oh, just to make it worse, he has a towel over his shoulder instead of around his junk.

[pete's montreux]

My biggest gripe about gyms is having to work out.

[JMT]

The mantra of western society. All strangers are evil and no one wants to help you. If they do, they're in it for some ulterior motive. **** helping your fellow man. It's me against the world.

Bullshit. Minding your own business, ie not jumping in with your opinion when unsolicited and uninvited, has nothing to do with a willingness to help your fellow man.

I'm a double lung transplant recipient. I spend my days speaking to groups that have requested information or expressed an interest in learning more about the topic. I field phone calls/email/FB messages from strangers who know me through reputation only. I'm glad to offer my assistance or support in any way I can.

I see people everyday smoking cigarettes. They're killing themselves, but I'm guessing they won't really welcome me telling them so. I'm not a doctor or an expert on the topic. I mind my own business.

Now, if one of them came to me and said "Hey, I wonder if this smoking is really good for me...my chest kind of hurts", I'll be glad to help.

Just like the guy in the gym who could solicit advice by saying "Hey, I wonder if I'm doing this right...my back kind of hurts". But he didn't.

[sunsfan1357]

I always hated when my roommate would ask me to go to the gym "in a bit" and after saying yes I'd have to wait around for an hour while he took a shower and gelled his hair before having to go work out. Then I'd be done lifting in about 1-2 hours while he spends extra time talking to people while getting in one exercise about every half hour.

[JMT]

So, if you noticed a man in a position that was bound to hurt him physically, would you let him be? For no reason other than to mind your business? The idea is ridiculous. It's part of the reason people look the other way when shit happens in public.


So do you confront cigarette smokers, bad drivers and the obese?

Alos: there's a much better way to tell the guy that he might hurt himself than by saying "if it's too heavy, try a lighter weight".

That's pretty d!ck-ish.

Pet Peeve of mine: people who take forever to work out. If your workout takes any longer than an hour, you aren't working hard enough.

Thanks for sharing :roll: . The photo posing with other jacked dudes cracked me up, so true.

[JMT]

What? This is about the gym, bro. We're talking about some guy who is utilizing an incorrect form that can seriously injure his back. I'm going to let him know this and if he catches feelings, then so be it. I'm not claiming to be some retard who goes around telling people to put down their cheeseburger and drop their cancer sticks. The very thought of that is hilarious to me.

Hey, "bro" you're the one that took it outside the gym..."the mantra of western society...me against the world...reason people look the other way when shit happens in public..."

The point has sailed right over your head. The OP doesn't claim to be a trainer or expert. Nobody asked him. Not only that, he now wants to list as a pet peeve people who don't thank him for intruding.

There's a time and a place. That wasn't his.

[mrpuente]

Dudes that pop their pimples in the mirror.

Old people that do stuff in the gym that they could do at home. Aerobics don't belong in the weight room.

[Velocirap31]

I also don't understand what is with old dudes hanging around the change room naked. Nobody wants to see that, yet they'll go shave and even brush their teeth without putting anything on. It's like they try to think of as many things as possible to do naked in the change room. I'm heading to the gym now and I guarantee I'll be seeing something I wish I hadn't.

[verylegit]

cardio bitches. that's all they do for like 2 hours straight or more. it's terrible because i hit up the gym at my friends apartment complex, fine b!tches for sure but there are only 2 elliptical machines and one of them is the only one i use, the other is complete garbage and sometimes i'll have taken my energy drink and some dumb chick is hogging it. i hate the treadmills.

that and theres this chick who does curcuits and hoggs just about every damn weight station as she moves between them. i want to kick her in the face.

[FatComputerNerd]

I have never been in a gym.:confusedshrug:

[daballa13]

My biggest pet peeve is the guy who walks into a crowded ass gym and starts performing ****ing circuit training with 5-6 stations in the middle of rush hour at the gym. I work out at a University gym and there's some tool with short shorts that does this and pisses me the **** off. I start using a machine and he comes all huffing and puffing saying that he was actually using that when he was gone for like 15 minutes. I want to slap him so hard.

[AirTupac]

Loud grunting, not wiping off the stations and people who try to talk to you.

[donald_trump]

dont you guys set a towel down on the benches so theres really no need to wipe them down afterwards?

[Jameerthefear]

This thread makes me want to start going to the gym.

[Mamba]

those who don't let u jump in with them.

this pisses me off the most, if the guy sitting next to you wants the weights that u have, just for one set, or inbetween ur sets, let him ****ing use them.

also the big roidmunchers that have to stare everyone down or walk around all cocky, hey douchebag, u weren't always massive stop trying to be an intimidative **** because its not working.

the form thing i don't mind, if they're bigger then u ill listen. if they've been at the gym for 2 weeks im gna be like "oh ok" and continue my form.

also drop your ego when u walk into a gym, do not lift weights too heavy for you because u think people will be impressed. form > weight. do you really think the guy on the bench next to you is going to care when he got home how much more he can bench then you?

[vinsane01]

Sounds like you hate lots of things about the gym. Then stop going. Buy a tread mill or better, jog outside for a change. Then buy your own weights and do it at home. You can always modify weight lifts to compensate for the other heavy equipments you used to use in the gym. Less irritation = less psychological stress = better life.

[falc39]

- People that don't put weights/dumb bells back properly. Anytime that I get done with a weight/workout, I put the weights back in the proper spot accordingly, especially the weights for the bar bells. Can't count how many times I see a 25 lb plate behind 3 or 4 45 lb plates. The gym I go to at my home base, people are really bad about not putting the weights back properly. Someone will grab, for example, a single 50 lb dumb bell for triceps or pull overs, does their work out, but is too lazy to put the weight back with it's other 50 lb counter part. I'll see it next to the 130+ lb dumb bells


Yeah I can't stand this. It's not that hard. The weights have a number on it. The rack has a number on it. Match the number on the weight with the one on the rack!!! It's not fcking rocket science!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is always some ass who will leave the 100lb dumbbells in the 50lb slot, causing the 50lb ones to be relocated, and the cycle goes until almost all of the dumbbells are in different slots :mad: Then you have the people who just leave the weights ON THE FLOOR or on the other side of the room :mad: :mad:

[clipps]

Ah, so you are one of those punks.

One of those punks who leaves a station and then comes back 15 minutes later and starts whining that somebody else took the station they weren't using.

Nope, try again.

[clipps]

Who cares how long it is or what the reason is. If you need to get water or take a piss, do it before or in between your routines. Why does anyone else need to wait on you taking a piss? You little queen. Fukc that.

I drink a mass amount of water on a daily basis so I piss quite frequently. I don't go piss between sets unless I really need to. When I do, I go and I come back. I don't bs around. When I come back and someone is using the equipment I was using, it's not like I'm a douche to them. A lot of times, they say "oh, u were using this, man?" And I reply with something like "ya, but no big deal, mind if I jump in between sets". It's not like I walk up to them and tell them to gtfo. I admire the effort of trying to sound like a hardass on your part.

[clipps]

If it's your .02 cents, don't expect him to react like he was given a pot of gold.

Lots of people that don't know a damn thing think they're qualified to give advice. Not saying you're one of those, but it happens. As far as he's concerned, you're not qualified to tell him a thing.

Mind your own business. It's a way of life.

The dude's back was completely curved with his eyes pointing at the floor and when he got done his back was clearly bothered. I was polite to him and I didn't go out of my way to give him advice either. Sure, maybe praise and a pot of gold isn't what I was expecting but there's no reason to tell me to go **** myself. That was uncalled for, whether I was minding my own business or not.

[ThaSwagg3r]

- That one guy that has to scream and growl on every rep. I understand if you are attempting a new max and you are close to getting up that 250 lbs or 300lbs that you've been working hard for, you grunt and growl a little bit. But I'm talking about the people that are growling on every single rep, especially when they can easily handle whatever weight they are lifting.
Yep, I hate this too. I also hate it when a guy like screams for like 10 minutes when he does end up getting the reps he wants in his new max.


I hate the people who are insecure too. Like If I'm not lifting as much as the guy next to me and we're doing similar workouts or similar machines/dumbells whatever and the guy is just giving me shit for not being able to lift as much as him. I also hate it when one guy tries to correct your form when that person's form is complete shit, i.e. insecure people.

Actually, the pet peeves that I listed are mainly very common among gym goers, so I'm guessing your statement is towards the vast majority, not just myself. Either way, I can handle the "psychological stress" that comes from going to the gym.

[PistonsFan#21]

The guy that uses the squat rack to do barbell curls :banghead:
Do you seriously need to take the only squat rack we have in my gym to rest your 85lbs barbell on it?

And the guy that insist on talking to you even if you have your headphones on when you are in the middle of a intense workout.

Were the two of you conversing? Did he ask your opinion? No? Then you went out of your way to give him advice.

Listen, I don't think you're a bad guy and agree with most of your peeves. But in this case you're wrong.

If you want to butt into other people's business, it's unrealistic of you to be upset that they didn't appreciate you doing so.

[DaHeezy]

Actually not about members but I think this should be applied at all gyms:

I think workers/trainers at the gym should actually teach members how to respect the gym and other members. It should be part of their job description to tell members how to lift, putting away weights, cleaning machines in between clients or sales. Too many times at my gym, and at other gyms I visit as a matter of fact do I see the trainers wasting time hanging out at the front desk, hitting on the chicks, or goofing around with the other members (the memebers who think they are super cool and own the joint because they are regulars). They should be trained to be floor supervisors.

[JMT]

You keep dodging the question. Why can't you help someone who is putting themselves in a dangerous position? Your only answer is "not your business hurr durr". Is that it? You've got twisted morals. Let's leave it at that.

I haven't dodged a single question. If you were brighter, you'd understand my stance from the previous posts.

My morality? It's not for any man to judge, and certainly not one as dense as yourself.

I agree with this guy. I don't think he's dodged the question, I think the other guy doesn't want to accept the answer.

Going to the gym to me is like work. You get in, do your thing, mind your business, then get out. Go to the gym to train, it's not a social club.

The trainers should be constantly walking around teaching people how to lift. That's their jobs.

[brantonli]

It's great having a gym in your apartment complex, because it's 1) free, and 2) nobody ever uses it. I can do circuits for as long as I want in there. But I use the gym at school, and I have no idea how I'm going to do circuits there, will probably just go back to sets. People there are generally pretty good about etiquette, no naked men wandering around (Although that would be a bit strange in a school),

This; every gym seems to have these guys.

[Hittin_Shots]

When I'm walkin round naked and none seems to want to acknowledge me at all. I keep trying to talk to them but some people are just rude.

[bagelred]

I have my own list of gym pet peeves:

- People who insist weights get put back in order on the rack. What's the difference what order its in? They are like the weight police. If I put it back in order, someone's gonna mess up the order anyway. Makes no difference. Wasted effort.

- People that always wipe down the bench/machines after using the equipment. I know the gym is not necessarily the cleanest place due to people getting sweaty and people farting, but damn, what are these people, obsessive/complusive? There are germs everywhere and they think wiping it down is going to help. It's a shared gym for a reason. Relax, grandma, your precious shirt and shorts can handle a little man sweat.

- People that use the flat bench bar-bell set-up for bench pressing. Where are we supposed to do our skull crushers? Stop hogging the bench!

- People who leave their water bottles and towels on the equipment. Pick up your shit!! Am I supposed to f-cking guess when you are returning? Are you coming back in 5 seconds or half an hour? Who the hell knows!! Where the f-ck are you going anyway? Can't finish using the equipment and take a piss later?

- Whenever someone wants to give me "friendly advice" on my workout. I've been working out for years and some douchebag comes along thinking he knows everything. What a pompous, arrogant jerk! Dude, get a reality check. You ain't Lou Ferrigno, ok? Take your "advice" elsewhere.

- Whenever a buddy/co-worker decides to finally go with you and all they do is ignore you, because their "focusing on their workout". I invited you along not just to workout, but to talk. Why do you think I invited you? Can't workout and talk at the same time? Can you not chew gum and walk at the same time? Make some conversation!

- That one guy that has to keep quiet on every rep. I understand if you are lifting low weights, but for a new max or if you are close to getting up that 250 lbs or 300lbs that you've been working hard for, grunt and growl a little bit! It increases your power output. This is weight lifting. This ain't a library. Stop trying to be "joe cool" and get into it!!!


Anyway, just had to get that off my chest.

The guy was hurting himself. I was doing what any decent human being would do.

I know you probably had good intentions, but it's really not your place. The guy is obviously an uneducated lifter who's purpose of doing that exercise to show his machissmo. Telling him how to lift doesn't help him, it offends him. People like that, or anybody for that matter don't want to be told in a gym. It belittles them. I took my buddy to a gym for the first time once. He wanted to train on his own. I tried to show him a few exercises and he snapped back with, " I know what I'm doing." This coming from a first timer from a friend.

What if I observed you and noticed your routine wasn't benificial to any results. If I approached you with some friendly advice on changing your routine I bet you'd feel insulted. I know most guys would. There's alot of pride in gyms.

[Charlie Sheen]

Alos: there's a much better way to tell the guy that he might hurt himself than by saying "if it's too heavy, try a lighter weight".

That's pretty d!ck-ish.



yup. nobody goes to the gym to get a lecture from some guy who is looking for an excuse to point out he can squat twice that weight with proper form. that isn't self serving at all buddy :rolleyes:

if u cant be bothered to be courteous and respectful to another person then mind ur own damn business. have some appreciation for the other guys situation...he could be new to the gym struggling with confidence.

[DaHeezy]

Not saying you're wrong, just saying it's not your place.

It's like let's say you notice a female friend had a shitty husband. It's not wrong to give sound advice, but if she doesn't ask than it's not your place to intrude. Obviously not the same category, but you get what I'm saying?

[clipps]

They guy as hurting himself. I was giving him pointers to keep from hurting himself. You guys act like I just walk around the gym critiquing people for no reason. I don't ever talk to people at the gym except for that one time the guy was hurting himself. And I know most of the people at the gym that I go to, and I happen to work with the guy that told me to **** off so it wasn't like he's a complete stranger. And honestly, he's just an overall dick to people. It's whatever. Again, I still don't see where I'm in the wrong. Some of you need to relax.

I hope you weren't referring to me dood, read my last post. I just finished stating I didn't think you were in the wrong. Otherwise you are getting way to defensive about this. I can see how it's someone you know how you'd feel obligated, but I posted that situation with my buddy, and I took him to the gym.
If the guy is hurting himself, let him. It's the gym's responsibilty. This guy probably lifted this way long before you approached him, and he he'll lift that way long after.

Hey, if it's any consolation, good on you for preventing an injury. But sometimes reality is the best lesson. Who'll learn from it? The guy lifting and the gym.

[DaHeezy]

he clearly said he only leaves for a minute, but then u fabricated to what he said to15 minutes.
Don't worry about LJJ. He has so much pent up testosterone he'd probably even chirp if you were sitting on the machine taking a 30 second breather.

He's angry guy at the gym. He walks around mean muggin, gives you a stare down and asks in the middle of your set, "are you done with that?" He's the guy with the work-out gloves, straps and chalk. He carries around his energy drink and sips between sets. His gym bag has got the protein powder ready to go and you best believe that when he's done his workout he's at the fountain filling up his shaker cup. Grrr!

[Velocirap31]

Clipps did that guy a favour, I would appreciate the advice rather than hurt myself and wish someone would have told me how to properly do the exercise. You just tried to help some guy who was an unappreciative insecure asshole. I've had a few guys show me how to do some exercises better and it has helped a lot. Usually people will wait until they've seen you there a lot though before they approach you.

Hey man I completely agree with you on this one. If he was really doing it wrong and could hurt himself then it was the right thing of you to do to try to correct him. I bet you if a personal trainer walked around and saw him they'd definitely stop him and try to correct his form. I wonder if he would have told the trainer to **** off

[The Ownage]

those who don't let u jump in with them.

this pisses me off the most, if the guy sitting next to you wants the weights that u have, just for one set, or inbetween ur sets, let him ****ing use them.

also the big roidmunchers that have to stare everyone down or walk around all cocky, hey douchebag, u weren't always massive stop trying to be an intimidative **** because its not working.

the form thing i don't mind, if they're bigger then u ill listen. if they've been at the gym for 2 weeks im gna be like "oh ok" and continue my form.

also drop your ego when u walk into a gym, do not lift weights too heavy for you because u think people will be impressed. form > weight. do you really think the guy on the bench next to you is going to care when he got home how much more he can bench then you?

All of this. The form thing doesn't piss me off, advice is always useful especially from a bigger guy. However I hate those dumbasses that tell me "don't do deadlift, it's not beneficial because I'm a puzzy who's unable to do it". It's not my fault you don't train your forearms enough to be able to lift it off the ground with a good form. :facepalm

I hate the guys who take long as breaks at a bench or squat station. And they leave to go do another workout halfway across the gym and leave their towel to "hold their spot".

Giving random advice in a friendly manner or marking a spot isn't considered being a douche. He's not intentionally being a prick.

You however pointing this out as douchery while being a douche about it sounds more douche bag like. In fact I bet you're one of those chachis that walk around in an Affliction shirt, with a water bottle full of 1MR ready to crush the weights. You take sips of your high powered cocktail in between sets then grab some weights that a guy who's go 20lbs on you just finished with and you power out more curls just to show who's the big dog in the gym. Then you drop the weights because the loud thud that annoys everyone else satisfies you like a reward for a set well earned. Those are douches at the gym. If you're not, your comment places you in that category. Your comment should be directed to those guys, not a guy who gives advice.

Who cares how long it is or what the reason is. If you need to get water or take a piss, do it before or in between your routines. Why does anyone else need to wait on you taking a piss? You little queen. Fukc that.
takes frickin 30 seconds and what does it matter when some people just sit there between reps taking a break. Same shit dam. Impatient little girl
