Embarrassing gym shit.
>Back day, just finished last set of barbell shrugs
>I always like to do static holds to increase grip strength at the end of my back workkouts
>last set, throw on 405, dont even think to put the fucking clips on
>hold for 20 seconds, go for re rack on hooks
>miss it by a cunt hair on one side
>right side lowers, 4 plates slide off and fall 2 feet
>struggle to keep left side from doing same (yea fucking right)
>turn around, entire gym is staring at me
>swole black bro jokes with me about it, says he did the same shit last week
>i calmly put away the 8 plates, do 3 sets of forearms
>leave embarrassed as fuck but i'll be damned if i show it
Anyone else goof in church today?
Did same shit last week with decline bb bench... gym was empty though.

calebrah is that u
>giving newer guy who asked for help some tips on squats
>his water looks like my water
>absent mindedly take a sip
I can never go back
>>36770719
I never put on clips because I'd rather dump weights than hurt myself if it comes down to it. But I am always worried about exactly that.
>>36770899
oh no
>>36770935
OH YEAH
>>36770719
When I do shit like this I just turn around and loudly apologize to everyone, like "SORRY. SORRY EVERYONE. SORRY.", then go about my fucking business. Because I actually don't give a fuck.
>>36770899
"That's what you get for not labeling your water newbie hahaha"
And then you kiss him.
>>36770899
I can't stop fucking laughing
>squat atg
>boxers rip
>all heads turn my way
>finish the set
>pretend not to notice the rest of my workout
why
>gym has vertical plate trees for bumper plates
>go to lift off 45lb plate from stack of 45lb plates
>grip slips from plate because reasons
>plate slams down onto stack of plates
>catching the soft flesh of my quad between them
The yelp was fairly audible.
>>36770719
I did a week ago, and I could've fucking sworn that the clips were on, needless to say I was wrong
>>36772332
Buy compression shorts bro Jesus Christ, I like the Nike Pro Combat. They're pricey but I've had mine for 2 years now with no issues
>>36772506
damn that sucks
>>36770719
i wonder if that guy got to root those grills.
>be in power rack, resting between sets
>guy comes up in power rack next to mine
>grabs the top and just hangs there, no chin ups, just hangs
>comes back down
>bends over and stretches touching his toes
>jumps in place a little bit
>leaves
what did he mean by this?
Did the same shit on the smith machine last week.
>start working out with dad
>it's arms day as he likes to do brosplit
>we go to this new gym on base and he takes the weights and walks over into one of the squat rack to be closer to the mirror
>finish both of our sets
>only realize after that we were fucking curling in the squat rack and look around with a scared look on my face
>tell him it's a meme and he was like "WELL I WANT TO BE CLOSE THE MIRROR TO CHECK MY FORM"
never again
>>36772745
>that guy
>>36770911
How would you hurt yourself with clips on when doing shrugs?
>>36773099
He's warming up. I hang from the pull up bar to stretch my arms and lats. I swing side to side a little bit, too.
>>36770719
Extremely similar story. Missed the left side by a fucking thread, except I had clamps on.
>Had done a high volume set with 455 on the bar
>couldn't quite get the strength to lift the missed side back up
>say fuck it and DL form it back down to the ground
>everything fine except ripped a callous open on left hand
>healed up now though.
That was super embarrassing for me. But I'm right there with you OP
>>36772506
i feel ya man. dropped a 25 plate on my knee the other day and it scraped my shit right up
>>36773213
Pic related. After I cleaned it up. It was bleeding like a motherfucker. Glad I didn't get it all over the barbells or weights.
This is now an injury thread
Post what ails you
>>36773235
Shiiiit. That reminds me. My buddy actually pinched his dick one time between two 50lb Dumbbells. Jesus
>>36770911
>I never put on clips
this only applies for benching idiot
learn how to lift
> Squat rack has multiple rack heights
> struggle with a squat, barely make it back up after the rep
> re-rack the weight at two different heights by accident
> try to adjust the lower side to match the higher side
> strain the fuck out of my shoulder
> shoulder hurts a lot so I figure I'll just do the leg press and call it a day
> start loading plates onto the leg press
> drop a 35 from about 3 feet up, directly onto my foot.
> FUCK
> Luckily no one saw
> Hobble over to the bench and decide to call it day right there.

It's actually a ftm tranny
>>36770719
>Start setting up to do deadlifts
>Everyone notices as it's a small gym and not many people deadlift
>Have doms from squats a few days earlier
>Load up 135 for first warm up set
>Pull my hamstring on 3rd rep of 135
>Sharp pain can't put all my weight on that side
>Instantly unload the 2 plates and put the bar away
>Mfw everyone thinks I loaded up 135 to do 3 reps and call it a day
>doing incline dumbbell bench
>go to put weights back
>duck under squat rack to put them down
>forget I had to duck turn around and take one fast step
>slam bar off of face
>black guy near me staring
>'you okay bro?'
>hold back urge to scream
>'y-yeah Im fine, fucking squat rack haha'
had a massive gash on my chin for a week after that
>first months at the gym
>been doing leg press, reach 200+kg
>decide to squat one time, 60kg hell yeah
>decide to finish them legs with the press
>don't realize you're fatigued
>at 7th rep the weights come crashing down
>everybody stares but nobody says anything
>try to continue workout but get really dizzy, leave
>aching for several days
felt like a fucking car crash, always keep your hands near the safety pins

Why do ftms have such an easy time passing?

He was just stretching his back, nothing to do with you senpai
>>36773960
Will it smooth out my cracked heels too?
>>36774062
Yes you toolless sub-human vermin, moisturize your fucking feet before bed, coconut and grapeseed oil mixture on your feet before you put on your "too-stupid-to-realize-I-need-a-pumicestone-now-I-need-to-moisturize-to-heal-myself-with-grease-and-protect-my-sheets-from-stains-at-the-same-time" socks.

>>36773960
Kek. I like my callouses breh. But if it's also good for feet I might give it a go. Can't hurt to try new things once in a while
Did the same but with foreign scandinavian girl, who was with her boyfriend, i don't know if they noticed
>her, looking like 'did you just did what i think you did?'
>me, like 'what the fuck are you looking at bitch'
Close enough, never saw them again anyways
>>36773585
It's easy for anyone to look like a dude when their body is full to the brim of testosterone and they're making a conscious effort to look like a male.
>>36773960
H-how would one going about using the pumice stone they are about the order on Amazon? What are the benefits? How do I use it on my hands and feet?
>>36773416
i did this with squats a couple of months ago
>do set with just bar
>mobility is shit today so decide i need more warmup sets
>load up 1pl8, do a set and still feel stiff
>do another set with just 1pl8, do 2 reps and then feel something twinge in my ankle
>say "that's enough for today" without thinking, put my shoes back on and go to do cable work
>notice a couple of new guys in the racks nearby watching
>mfw they probably think there's no need to go heavy on squats now
