| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01  | Ok, here we go again. It is my belief that the gym is a magnet for stupidity and it's practitioners. Let's demonstrate with some examples: The angry lifter - do you think that throwing the weights around, grunting loudly every time you move, or walking around with a look that says I am going to shoot 14 people in my high school is going to make you stronger? NO! Stop yelling, stop acting like you're a convict and be a normal person. You're not making yourself stronger or tougher, you are not intimidating, you just look like a semi-retarded child who didnt get enough attention from mommy & daddy. The Group of Lifters - I have no problem with lifting with a partner. Having a spotter or a companion for motivation and help is a good thing. I prefer to lift alone, but if you want to work out with someone, be my guest. But why do you need to bring an entire group?! I shouldn't have to wait 45 minutes to get on the cables, a bench, or the lat-bar because there are 4 or 5 of you having a circle jerk in the middle of the gym. With that many people you're looking at 12 - 15 sets, as opposed to my 3 or 4. Try doing a circuit routine and break your little group up, you're only taking up space & time. Quit gossiping and get out of the fucking way. The Fat Chick who rides the stationary recumbent bike at 15 rpm - You are going to burn more fucking calories when you lift the twinkie to your mouth than riding at your pace. A double leg amputee can walk faster than you are riding. There aren't a whole lot of recumbent bikes. You are riding at 15 rpm, I am going to ride at 98 - 105 rpm. Get your ass off the bike and when you learn how to maintain an acceptable speed. And when you're done with your obviously over-strenuous work out, wipe your fucking hog sweat off with a cleaning towel. For the love of god, I don't want to work out in a sweaty salt mix of fat chick stench.  Is my train in vain, has my soul gone to waste Am I just a victim of, a victim of my lost faith | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Apr. 01 | I second that FU King Froy. My FU's go directly to the effing dee heads at BQE. I do an hour of cardio every day at the end of my workout (approx. 101 rps.) WITHOUT FAIL I run into one of two types of people on MY machine THAT I SIGNED UP FOR: (1)The newbiees who are two fucking stupid to see the numerous huge signes that say MUST SIGN UP TO USE CARDIO MACHINE. or (2)The fucking muscle head "angry lifters" who KNOW they have to sign up but don't and use the machines anyway because they are WAY to cool to take the 3 seconds to sign up. The best part? When you say politely: "Excuse me, I believe I signed up for this machine now." and they give you an attitude because after all, YOURE the one following the rules. So anyone who has ever said to me, "I still got another 5 minutes" after I already let them go five minutes into MY workout time, or the fat old bitches that give me shit and storm off without cleaning the sweat off the machine....FUCK YOU!  I had a great sigpic once, now its just a small red x in a box "Gimmy the bat, faggit" "I AM ZEROMUS. I AM THE HATRED!" Graduated from ShinRa Inc. Newbie School Sanction, so suck it.....whitey. | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01 | Oh, I forgot about the stupid twats who don't know how to use the simple isolation machines. Wow, here's a tough one, it's a lat raise, and there's a diagram glued to the machine displaying proper use, but I'm going to sit on it backwards anyway, because obviously the handgrips are meant for my elbows not my hands.

| Psychopath Registered: Mar. 01 | Would this be an appropriate place to add an FU to the gym/workout snobs? You know who I mean. The people who look at you like you just told them you have herpes when you say that you don't go to a gym. The people who obviously feel that they are somehow better than you for it. You want to work out? Fine. That's great for you. But please don't think that you are on some new moral in-shape high ground. You are not curing cancer, you are not saving orphans, you are paying someone so that you can run in place! Help those that need it. Join IBC.

| Psychopath Registered: Aug. 01 | quote: Good one Wookie, I've gotta remember that line. Bally's should adopt it as their slogan. I'm always annoyed at the amount of people who show up at the gym during the first part of January, right after the holidays. It's all the fat-asses that have decided to "get in shape this year." The gym will have about 3 times as many people as it normally does, then about 6 weeks later it's back to normal.....

| Psychopath Registered: Oct. 00 | I go to the NYSC in Scarsdale. And the People in the actually gym don't piss me off nearly as much as the Fags in the Locker room. Like Jesus Christ there are plenty of empty lockers in there and if I'm at the locker and you choose to pick the one next to mine, It doesn't mean that when you get out of the fucking shower you have to stand right next to me while you dry off. Also I can't stand the guy that feels totally comfortable to stand and have a 15 min long conversation with his buddy while standing buck naked with his cock 3 feet from his buddies. I'm sorry, if your not drying off or in the middle of changing there is NO reason to be wandering around the locker room for fun of it totally naked.  "What are you gonna do?Release the dogs?! Or the bees?! Or dogs with bees in their mouth so that when they bark they shoot bees at you?" | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Oct. 00 | So shelle, you girls don't stand around in the locker room throwing Maxi-pads at each other chanting "PLUG IT UP!"? I've always pictured it like the Movie ROAD TRIP, with you girls helping each other lotion up "What are you gonna do?Release the dogs?! Or the bees?! Or dogs with bees in their mouth so that when they bark they shoot bees at you?" | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Sorry WindowLick, but only fags work out at NYSC. Fags and fag hags. It's ironic that there is a nice bar on the same level as NYSC in Stamford overlooking the rinks, yet none of these "real men" with ever support the place. Real men play hockey, fags work out at gyms designed for women. In you defense the gyms in Scarsdale do suck ass. Well at least the Bronxville ones. They're all cater to bitter wives with husbands who are nailing.... oh, I already said that line above. Remember, 80% of married (straight) men who work out regulary at a gym are doing so because they believe that it will enhance their chance of having an extramarital affair. 42 | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | I can add to this one.. FU to the 3 guys I see at the gym every day who dress up like weightlifters(gloves, belts, etc) but all they do is one or two reps on machines, get up, grunt and pose in front of the mirrors! Like that impresses people? Some of us actually go there for a work-out, guys! The new gym they built around here is a lot bigger, but the weight room is smaller, so there's less equipment and when ass-f's like those tools want to keep posing like a bunch of Diva's, it holds up everybody else...  | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: May. 01 | Who likes Dennis Leary? ... Have you seen these people? They quit doing drugs, they quit smoking, they quit drinking... and now the decide to WORK OUT! I understood Nautilus. There were leg machines, and arm machines... But have you seen these people using the STAIRMASTER??!! These people go into a gym and pay money to walk up invisible stairs for an hour and a half! "What are you doing?" "I'm going up, and I paid for it too! I can stay here as long as I want!" Folks, you wanna walk up stairs, move into a 5th flr walk-up on the Lower East Side. What's next the Charimaster? I sit down, I get up, I sit down, I get up... The fucking Doormaster? I open the door, I close the door, I open the door... What the Fuck!  Boo Boo Kitty Fuck

| Psychopath Registered: Aug. 01 | Damn Froy...Please tell us what you really think. Geez, why so bitter, at least the fat chick is trying to lose weight. Maybe 15 mph is as fast as she can pedal for now, damn!!! Gyms aren't only for the phsically fit person such as yourself, and in the large picture, this is so insignificant...I agree that she should have at least, cleaned off the machine but maybe next time you can let her know to do that and try to be nice about it, not everyone is a perfect "10"!!!

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01 | quote: I'm not bitter, I am angry at the lack of gym ettiquette. Like any other place there is a tacit code that is based on sheer common sense and personal consideration. It has nothing to do with how physically fit a person is. Hell I was a very fat kid growing up, and I will always have that memory in my mind, that's why I'm so obsessed with lifting everyday. I'm all for people bettering themselves, but learn to do it in an intelligent way, where you don't screw up everyone else.

| Psychopath Registered: Oct. 00 | Proper Gym etiquette according to Men's HEALTH: When you're surrounded by a bunch of sweaty guys who are heaving weighty objects around, it pays to be polite. Keep these guidelines in mind as you're waiting for your turn at the iron. **Don't stare. So what if the guy next to you prefers to warm up by juggling three miniature poodles. You're there to work out, not to enjoy the show. **Don't give unasked-for advice. It may be obvious to you that doing bench presses with the barbell clenched in your teeth is a bad idea. But if someone's doing it, he has his reasons. Leave it to the trainer on duty to correct bad form. **Don't try to strike up a conversation with someone who's lifting. Put yourself in this scenario: you're struggling through your fifteenth overhead press with 235.7 pounds on the bar, and some twerp asks you if you saw last night's episode of Friends. Would you have the self-control not to drop the weights right on his head? **Know your machines. If you use a weight machine, know how to use it. Get on it, do your stuff, and get off quickly so the next guy has a chance. If you're not sure, wait until the gym's not too crowded and ask a trainer for help. **Leave it like you found it. You may have no problem doing a few curls with 400 pounds, but the next guy may be built like Shaggy from Scooby-Doo. If you put plates on the bar, take 'em off when you're done. **Wipe when necessary. There's nothing quite like sitting down in a warm puddle of somebody else's sweat. When you're done exercising, make sure you haven't left anything for the next slob to remember you by. And as long as we're talking perspiration, don't forget to throw your workout gear in the laundry once in a while. You have no right to subject innocent people to the output of your overeager sweat glands. Women have to go through the same demanding physical exertion you do to get in shape. Plus they have to fend off lunkheads who think grunting is a clever pick-up line. Follow all the above rules, plus these axioms: **Notice her eyes and ears. Headphones can be a woman's best friend if she doesn't want to be bothered by guys on the make (i.e., you). If she's got her 'phones on tight and her eyes are focused on the floor, the machine, the mirror or whatever's right in front of her, it's a pretty safe bet she doesn't want your attention. **Watch for positive signs. A woman who watches you work out may be interested in you (or your T-shirt). If she takes her headphones off after she notices you, things are looking up. And if she asks you for help -- how to use a machine, for example -- it could be her way of trying to meet you. Be helpful and see what happens next. "What are you gonna do?Release the dogs?! Or the bees?! Or dogs with bees in their mouth so that when they bark they shoot bees at you?" | ||||
