Ever confronted someone smashing weights down? / with bad gym etiquette

[Txcf]

I’ve had a few stern discussions with some folks before. It seems like cleaning up your fn’ mess when you’re done is getting worse. The being on the cell phone forever is a rage inducer for me. I thought we were there to train and get better. Maybe I’m crazy

Booty shorts that sounds like big swole there is one other guy I don’t understand he has this big ass duffle bag he carries to each station but he never gets anything out of them there are cameras and places to set stuff so why the hell carry it around unless his hgh insulin and orange juice are in there but he isn’t even close to being on that level maybe it’s 8 heads in a duffle bag

There was a C-Fitter at my old gym who insisted on dropping his weight after EVERY rep during deadlifts, and the sad part was, he was only deadlifting 300-350 at the most while doing it. The gym owner went out and bought a nice okie deadlift bar with some natural break in it, not meant to be dropped which will cause damage to the bar. I made a few comments to the guy about how you’re not supposed to be dropping the weight on every rep, even explained to him that in a meet he would be laughed off stage and DQ’d on the lift for dropping it, he told me I was just jealous of the weight he was moving… another time I told him if his grip was too pussy to be holding the weight, he shouldn’t be lifting it, he responded to me with “I never see you deadlift”. Unfortunately this was before my hip replacement, I didn’t even have enough mobility to even get down to the bar, let alone pull it, otherwise I would have put on a show… I fucking hate people who throw weights and drop shit like they’re big bad asses. I get failure, I’ve failed enough to know it happens, but when you’re purposely being an ass clown and potentially breaking equipment it’s sad.

That’s where all those gym idiot videos come from haha

 

[Tuff]

between me, you and the dog, how many $'s you make it rain in his direction?..lol

Based off his enthusiasm to always return and break it down, you’d think I was throwing Bands of cash lol.

If I go later in the evening there’s a couple of kids spending more time video taping each other then lifting. It’s pretty sickening, but I do enjoy walking through them to get to weights or equipment. Been dying for them to say something

 

[Bigmurph6]

What do you think they do with the videos jerk off to each other lifting weights or is this a social media thing for them?

 

[JLee]

I’m afraid to ask! But its all these kids do today is post all the stupid shit they do online. I don’t understand it.

 

[Dirtnasty]

I know some that do it to look at their form for corrections and what not. But lost do it to try and brag on social media

 

[Bigmurph6]

I hear you brother I don’t understand it at all lol

 

[Bigmurph6]

I could understand posing practicing but form I guess it could help good point

 

[John]

Yup all over each other little fuckwads, best part of them ran down there mothers leg.

 

[BBSQ5]

Lmao!

 

[Dmomuchole]

I’m dying over here

I did get told to ease down my weights on deadlifts when I first started. Not cause of the nose and shaking but the shits might break that we have at gym. So I guess that makes me use better form and control it better
