Retarded things your gym partner does.
>getting ready to start EVERY SINGLE FUCKING SET
>he's spotting me
>just as I'm about to grab the bar he yawns comically loud
>have to wait for me to fucking yawn as well before continuing
Holy fucking shit.
>>35213955
>8 sets of every muscle we're doing that day
>copies anything new i do as if he's been doing them
>thinks his 2pl8 deadlift max is the shit and yells+flexes every time he hits it
>fucks me in the ass when we hit the showers
This motherfucker...
>any exercise, at any station
>slightly outlift me every time
>always pushes more reps than me
>even makes bigger gains than I do
What do I do guys? Do I need a new partner?
>>35213955
>he breathes, I wish he was dead
>>35214849
you couldn't possibly find a new liftingpartner to outlift unless you took your coat-stand with you you weak fuck
He's kind of like my mentor since he used to be army and is swole as fuark but he only does machines
What the fuck do I do?
>always tries to progress on lifts even if he just did that thing <1 week ago
>will constantly fail last set because it's more than he can handle
>laughs at me for repping the same weight throughout a week
Usually it's on squats or bench too. For deadlifts he just fucks his back up no matter what
also
>we do compound lifts then random hypertrophy shit
>let him choose the shit after because lol
>almost always stupid shit like skull crushers, machine shrugs,
Mine spouts /fit/ memes, poses like zyzz, says mirin unironically and once told me a greentext story as if it was his (the gun reload dance at a club one) then says it's an Internet thing and I wouldn't get it.

>2pl8 deadlift max
>his
You sure that's a dude, dude? Does "he" always seem to have some excuse to skip training on Penis Inspection Day?
>>35214936
realize that machines work and its just blind traditionalism that makes /fit/ think freeweights are the only way to go.
>>35213955
>having a gym partner
look at this normie.
>>35215084
There's a great video showing exercises that are better on machines than freeweights.
I started doing curls with my back turned to the machine and holy shit, it's SO MUCH BETTER than the barbells. The extra resistance goes such a long way.
>>35215072
He's manlet + skelly mode
>>35213955
>spotter
Ahaha
>>35215084
>blind traditionalism
You mean consensus supported academically in the field of kinesiology and clinically in the experience of a community of coaches and trainers with combined centuries of professional experience?
Nobody even says machines "don't work", we say machines are sup-optimal, especially for forming the foundation of a person's training. And nobody cares if some random anon knows a jarhead faggot who's "totally super swole dude, trust me" who swears by machines. Drop of piss in the ocean.

He makes bigger gains because he pushes himself and you dont
>>35214936

>>35215678
Someday desu, someday ;_;
>>35215084
yea fuck having strong stabilizers... all you need are show muscles...
>>35215678
why pay so much for a set of dumbbells instead of just getting pic related??
>>35214977
your gym buddy sounds like he is going to make it, tbqh
constantly aiming for progressive overload, constantly pushing himself to the limit (hence failing on the last set)
laughing at DYELS who are too afraid of stalling to even attempt progression ahead of schedule...
11/10 gym buddy, tbhfam
