……being that I am in the gym so much with all the cardio I do, I get to do a lot of people watching… as always I am pleased to regail all with the stupidity I have witnessed in the gym in the past few days…
Strap Guy
…I read a post elsewhere about some brutal misuse of straps, so now every time I see someone using them, I pay special attention. Now someone please explain to me… why are some people compelled to use straps when training their biceps and triceps?! You look like a complete ass if you decide to use them for your 25 lb dumbell curls.. REALLY!! (true story!)… as well as any kind of arm movement involving cables! Yes… I said cables! Nor are they required for bench pressing or dumbell flyes (actually that may HURT… a lot)! I am still waiting for someone to use straps for their cable crossovers… I should start paying more attention.
Scale Obessed Lady
I watch her come in, weigh herself… work out for about 20 minutes… weigh herself… do some cardio… weigh herself… then weigh herself again… then on another scale… then do some more cardio… then back to the scale. I have been trying to figure her out for probably a week… I finally understand! She is in the gym until she weighs less than what she weighed when she came in… I’m not even lying… all 98.4lbs of her!
Small Big Man
From far away he looks kinda like a "bodybuilder"… you know what I mean… big upper body, small waist, small ass, big legs… but it’s all an illusion!! He comes to the gym wearing a cut-off football jersey.. underneath which he wears a cut-off sweatshirt… under that may be another sweatshirt… and possibly 2 more under that… all this is cinched with a belt and you guessed it… he wears at least 2 pairs of pants… yup… they somehow are rolled up to the knee… and then theres knee socks… and boots… from far away the dude looks big… and what amazes me the most is he is wearing this get-up when it’s 70 degrees outside…. and what amazes me EVEN MORE is that he seems to be wearing the identical thing every day… AND he’s there when I do my AM cardio… AND he’s there when I come back at night to lift… *sigh*… maybe he’ll start stuffing his knee socks next…
