Gym Pet Peeves

[Thump]

Anyone who does this please explain:

Why do you need a tobogan or ball-hat to lift weights?

Also, why do most heavy lifters have to rip the sleeves off of their shirts to make tank tops but rip the shirts all the way down to their waist to show off most of their torso?

Funny thing I saw last week, ass clown gets off of a machine and before he leaves, moves the metal pin 80 lbs. heavier as he exits so the next person getting on is "impressed" by his heavy lifting.

Took everything I had to not to start laughing hysterically in his face.

Curls.

Also a Facebook friend had his big box gym recently post a notice that dead lifting was no longer allowed.

that alone would be enough for me not to join. despite rarely being done correctly, the deadlift is the best all-around exercise.

Is it the same gym that lets off sirens and shit if someone grunts too loudly?

It was a planet fitness in Houston iirc... I don't know anything about their other policies.

Might as well ban squats too. Dumbasses.

Spend a lot of time at the gym checking out guys?

I don't dead lift anymore but can see how some lawyer cooked up that idea. Usually if there is a dead lift injury it's a bad one. Only a few I see at the army gym do them with good form and technique.

Its actually not that hard. I would hazard a guess that most injuries are caused by too many reps and doing reps too fast.
