Gym Rats - Don't Be That Guy

[TLopez]

Saw this and thought we all have these guys at our gyms.[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVcIxROx5lc&feature=related[/YOUTUBE]

I like Mr. Serious guy.

[CJ Hartley]

Have to agree with Andrew. I am the serious guy I guess. If someone asks me a question I am happy to answer but I am not Mr social guy...

[davidb]

Lol...I can be both Mr. Serious and Mr. What's up Guy. But I try to keep it within reason to not "be that guy"...lol.

[kunimitsu]

Yeah I'm down with Mr. Serious, the clown that is trying to break his concentration shouldn't be a dick. At minimum wait till he is finished the set

[RedSkull]

I agree w/ Mr Serious too, when actually training. If they were trying to show how not to be that guy, they could of showed that a lot better...

Funny video though.

Here's another one.

Yup, WHILE TRAINING its cool to be serious. If I wrote that bit I woulda had Mr. Serious at his computer....on a msg board.... ;-)

Funny shit Lopez!

I agree with the majority. If I am in the middle of a set, about 99% of the time, I am in tunnel vision mentality (if a pretty lady comes into view I MIGHT have to take a peek ). At least at my gym the serious lifters tend to keep to themselves and the D-bags hang out around the crossover station and get their rocks off to watching one another do partial reps on high cable crossovers.

There is one guy at my gym that uses about 10 machines at once and he lets you know he is using it by leaving articles of clothing all over the machines he is using. It is quite funny actually.

lol @ the space invader.

[RageBlanket]

I'm Mr. Serious, and at the time I work out there are 2 Machine Hoggers with 1 more Mr. Serious.

We share a Mr. Serious disdain for these other 2, but never communicate it verbally. That violates the Serious Code.

Usually I am at the gym around 3:45 in the morning. Right around the time that HECKMAN is on Back Width (yeah I think instead of going to bed, he goes to the gym).

Today I had the day off from work and went @ 8:30 after I dropped my daughter off at school. There was a guy on the Smith machine doing shoulder shrugs with a 25# plate on each side. He was doing them for at least 10 minutes before I stood next to the machine. I stood there waiting for another 10 min. and didn't say a word. He was taking 1 min. pauses in between sets. My blood was boiling. Then he says "are you waiting for this machine?" I told him "no I just wanted to watch you workout". He called me an asshole as he was walking away.

Holy shit I feel your pain. I go about 0300-0330; when I have to go in during normal people hours my fucking head almost explodes.

There should be an episode for the "bro bench posse". You know, the fucking clowns rolling 4 deep every day doing chest, with a side of chest, and chest for dessert.

Fuck you guys. Fuck you with rusty chainsaws.
