The meatheads who go to the end of the weight rack, and on the contraction movement, squint their eyes, lift and go "SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSTTTSSSTTTTSSSSSSSSTSTSTSS " for their entire rep.

Excuses. h:



I hate when morons walk around not watching where they're going and bump into you then look at you like it's your fault.

I hate when someone goes from machine to machine after being on there for only 3-5 reps. WTF are you doing? Stop wasting your time and mine since I was planning on using it.

I hate when people go to the gym and don't wear the proper gear. WTF are you doing using lifting/weight machines in heavy ass jeans and boots? :eh:

I hate it when people take a half hr break on the machine in between sessions. It's not a fuckin' couch, take a 2 min break then continue or get off. h:

I try to mind my own business usually, but it drives me fucking nuts when people:

-Don't rack their weights.
-Curl in the squat rack.
-Wear sandals.
-Talk on their phone while running or lifting.
-Walk around the gym on their phone, tell the person on the phone they are at the gym, don't lift anything, then leave.

I'm sure I'll be adding h:.

wtf.. people do that?

I've only gone to 24 hour gyms and go late at night, so, I've never been at a gym when there was a lot of people there. h:

nothing wrong with not going close to your chest on bench.
