>The French Man
Comes in wearing a beaner and Crocs, hangs upside down from the pull-up bar and looks around the weightroom like a bat. No facial expression, reads literature in his rest time.
>Mariusz Polaski Sklep Wiedzemin Kurwa Virtus Pro
Most Polish guy I've ever seen, speaks with a thick polish accent and mainly does Polish exercises, when a fellow Pole comes into the gym it's non-stop Polish. Probably comes to the gym because he wants to be pashaBiceps.

Nope, fit4less.
Worrying actually, after having to wait 10 mins between sets of bench I was thinking of transferring gyms
>>34880076
We have this at my gym, only its in pairs of two.
>>34879169
I'm the French Man.
I also do real workouts tho, but I do those at a different gym.
>>34880172
why tho? why pay for two gyms?
>>34880175
One is a community centre I get for cheap, the other one I'm at for free as a work benefit (I work in a full time land management and evaluation position with the government in Canada, they have good benefits and decent salary).
Had to get off mobie and on my computer just because of this thread. There aren't that many people who use the gym at my community college, but everyone has their own unique flavor.
>The Bench Warmer
Babyface looking child who, if we're going by looks and what I've seen, only benches his max. Pretty decent 2pl8 though. Not sure how he keeps it since he'll do 5 or so 1RMs and leave after.
>Thinson Tide
Auschwitz mode kid with a speech impediment that really doesn't know what hes doing. I taught him to breathe when he does his >100lb benches. Might take him up as a student. Always wears an Alabama beanie.

>Skinny and The Sticks
Members of The Milfs class. Bunch of kids fresh out of highschool, none of them weighing over 120lbs and all have that nerdy look to them. Not sure why they're even in the gym: they'll shadow box, curl 5lbs, then do cardio. Nice kids though.
>Eeyore
Older (50s) black woman I've only encountered a few times. Has this miserable look on her face 24/7, like she sees her first dog getting run over again and again and again.
>The Wildlings
Not sure about this group. They only came to the gym once as part of a class, I don't even know if they were in college or not. All definitely minors. They swarmed the machine room, each of them taking up every single machine and rotating out every five minutes to the next. 3 grills stayed in the free weight area to watch me bench, not sure how i felt about that.
>>34879169
>Polish exercises
What the fuck are those?
>The screamin' demon
5'7 Asian, ripped upper body, recently started free weight training for legs. Before every lmao2pl8 squat set, yells motivation at himself in the mirror (YOU GOT THIS!) (LETS GO!!) and then screams his lungs out during every rep. Does jumping jacks in between sets.

>Braindead Wide Turkish Squat Rack Hogger
Barely speaks, and just grunts and gives you a confused look when spoken to. More fat than big, spends all his time on the squat rack, and whenever anyone is using it he asks them wide-eyed when they're done and just keeps walking around with these wide pumped-up eyes.

Awesome guy, Polish lifting god, has the highest pec lifts in the gym, benches with perfect form. Always gives brohugs when greeted by friends, always gives advice, helps, great fucking guy

the girl spends her entire time watching me lift through the mirror
>Corporate Jew
this guy is an old jew, talks yiddish to his other jew bag co workers who are beneath him in the hierarchy, he thinks because he is president of his own company and can give other people shit, one time he asked me if I was going to move or not ( I wasn't in anyone's way) and I went off on him telling him that I'm not his son or his lackey he can't talk to me like that because I'll break all his teeth and wear them as a necklace, he avoids mes now
>jew goblin of gains
5/10 chick who works at the gym, tries to intiate hour long conversations with anyone lifting
>cross fit shill
a powerful jew who has no shame or humility, he walks around the gym like the floor is made of lava doing ridiculous cross fit excercises with very low weights, once spotted throwing a 45 pound plate on the ground repeatedly. being that he is stupid and jewish he gets in the way of other people's lifts with his embarrassing routine and ironically poor range of motion

5'10 or so bro-hippie hybrid with a bronze tan year long from working out doors and a man-bun. Literally does nothing but extremely light weight high volume tempo sets to get definition on his barely ottermode body.
Spends roughly an hour or so in the steam room or walking on the stair stepper watching everyone else in the gym.
>Ragnar
The 5'9 or so build-fat guy at every gym that puts every machine on the highest possible weight and then reps it out before going for lmao 3pl8 bench or 5pl8 DLs. Huge fucking beard obligatory, tribal tats supplementary.
>Queen Camel Toe
My fitness waifu. Roughly 5'10 blonde aryan qt with the worlds tightest, glossiest pony tail and firmest, thickest, but proportionate ass i've ever seen.
Frequently seen wearing exclusively pink outfits, with the tight sports shorts to accentuate her camel-toe while performing any leg workouts or exercises that involve bending over.
>Chad thundercock
General term for all the faggots that clearly only work arms and chest, have no back, legs, or even proportionate shoulders.
>Last but not least

>Slobby Lifting Jesus
One of the PTs I think. Has long ringlet hair that looks slightly greasy. I can't tell if he's trying to grow a beard or has a goatee and forgets to shave the rest of his face sometimes.
Teaches people to step forwards off the hooks for squats. Seems to lift okay himself.
>Heavenly Ass Lass
Black female PT. Cute face. Always used to wear a halter top thing that showed off her shoulders, but I guess somebody finally talked to her about it (there's a rule against "overly large arm holes" because nobody fucking cleans their sweat off the machines I guess) so now she always wears this dang jacket or something.
But she still wears tight as hell 3/4 yoga pants in like 10 different patterns, showing off the perfect globes of her rear and her nicely defined thighs too.
>Giga-Sikh.
I don't think he's actually sikh, he doesn't wear the turban. But he does have a bushy beard and otherwise looks similar. He's pretty built, but not very defined, taller than 6'6", but I'm not sure how much taller. I'd believe him if he said he was 6'10". One of the three dudes there I've seen rep more than 3 plates on bench. It was 360 for 4 to 6 reps the last time I saw him max out.
>Big Black Bubba
Also tall, but still manages near sphericalness. Very cheerful. Despite thick legs does surprisingly light squats. But benches a little more than 3 plates.
>Maybe it's a Trap?
Cute girl with small breasts and short really blonde hair, and one of the most muscular women there. Does hip thrusts every time I see her in the gym. Don't think she's actually a trap, but I did mistake her for a boythe first time I saw her. Surprisingly high voice.

>tfw I'm perma bulk bro
>The Pool Pump
roiding lebo manlet that stops by the gym for 10 minutes before going to the pool to get a pump. does some curls, lat raises etc and then gets changed in the bathroom, gets his gf to take photos of him flexing just outside the gym. One time wanted to use my rope attachment that I bring (it is an apartment gym and people have stolen things in there so I don't leave my shit in there). He just kept pointing at it saying "rope" so I just stared at him in hopes that he would form a complete sentence asking if he could use it.
>HIITing Pajeet
Some tiny young indian man that comes in and does this intense cardio stuff. He goes hard but it looks like a waste of time t.b.h, and he takes up too much fucking room sometimes because some of the exercises have him literally bouncing around the room
>The Arnie Presser
Some international curlbro guy that doesn't train his legs and works out in shorts and sandals. I only ever see him doing arm stuff and Arnold press
>Ottermode Delight

>Spiderman
This dude has one arm and dressed up as Spiderman for halloween
>Mr. Half-way-to-making-it

Dude takes his shirt off in the weightroom of a 24 Hour Fitness. He's a fat hairy man. I don't know what to say.
>The Persian Pair
A Pair of Iranian guys who do every exercise together and I don't mean switching off, but will do the workouts together making them entirely pointless. One will bench, and the other one will help him by curling the bench bar, or if one is doing preacher curls, the other one will push up on the weight. It's really dumb.
>The Jamaican

Lady that wears all purple, and drives a purple minivan.

I've seen this guy once, but he came in and benched 450lbs. Like holy shit.
>Da Bears
Two loud old assholes that shout to each other across the gym, always want to make sure they're heard and will use machines and let the weights slam. One got kicked out because he got pissed off when one of the staff told him he probably shouldn't lift in sandals.
>Cute Girl that's Always Doing Leg Day or Squats
I've seen her all the time, and I can't seem to talk to her. I'm not good at opening up dialogue.
I see lots of other people all the time, but not much that's interesting to note.

>The twins
sisters that work the daycare center. are hot

>The guy with a jew fro who always lifts just slightly too much and scares the shit out of you because you've had to pull shit off of him before
>No Legs
Very nice, quiet guy who's ripped from the hips up. I see him making valiant efforts for some quads, but he only ever does leg-presses, so it may be a while before his body catches up.
>Rainbow Squad
Super friendly, super ripped group of guys who come in around the same time as me and do a very worthwhile workout. One of them complimented my hair and I felt like a boss.
>Cardio milfs
The gym has a bunch of cardio classes, and I only ever see these women going and coming from the training room. Most of them are a little hefty, but they always wear really nice workout gear and travel in packs.
>Old man Jenkins
Just a really old dude. About 6'0" and gets on the elliptical for 30 minutes, then does a workout on every single workout machine in the gym, and leaves. He'll occasionally acknowledge me.
>The looker
He knows I can see him looking at my ass when I'm lifting, he knows I wear baggy clothes and a sweater because I don't want the attention, but he stares anyway. He's not unpleasant, but he keeps the same hours as I do, and it's a little weird now.
>Me (The baby-dyke)
I have super short hair, was taught to lift when I wrestled in high school, and dress like a dude. People probably wonder if I'm some FTM.
>Klebold
Dude with what I can only describe as a blue-raspberry dyed bowl cut and an upside down cross tattoo on his forehead. Talked to me between squat sets and my butthole clenched so hard it sucked up halfway into my body. Actually quite cool. We talked about rich piana's (at that point future) wedding.
>Hot Fitness Sherpa
The cardio bunny that gave me the tour when I was about to sign up. Pretty cool. Is dating the crazy huge giganigga who also works there and does competitions and shit. I saw him deadlift 6fuckingpl8 and do a little 'thanks Jesus' blown kiss to the sky thing that made me consider religion as an option in my life. Also complimented my chucks but I was autistic about it and just said 'yeah' real meekly.

Self Explanatory
>>34879210
I once had a person spotting me squat (I didn't ASK him to do this, he took it upon himself... Thanks). I was coming out of the hole and let out the biggest fart. If you can imagine the position we were in...
I farted right on his balls.
>>34879169
At my uni gym there are three people that really come to mind:
>Uncle Ruckus
Aged 50s really big black guy with only 2 teeth and old man wire glasses. Loves to go up to guys straining on a set and scream PICK THAT SHIT UP at the top of his lungs. He's really strong and loves helping people with their form, as long as you are willing to be screamed at the entire time. Also since he has only 2 teeth, the way he speaks is hilarious.
>Hairy Scooby
Older (probably early 50s), very tall and muscular white guy who often comes in with Uncle Ruckus. Puts all of us 19-23 year olds to shame on a regular basis. Rarely speaks, but will glare at you if you work too close to him or get in his way. Sometimes comes in with who I assume to be his son and does a shit ton of incline bench and dumbbell curls.
>The Duplicator
This one is actually very funny. I have gone to this school for over 4 years, and I would see this same guy almost everytime I went to the gym. And I would see him on campus. I eventually came to the conclusion that he has the same major as me and goes to the gym 5-6 times a week. Then finally, last month, I saw him walking next to two identical twin brothers. Turns out they are identical triplets, all extremely jacked, and all go to the same gym. I would see a different triplet everytime I went, and I assumed they were all the same person for 4 years. It was almost obvious how shocked I was when I walked past the three of them. I used to think he truly was the master of the gym and was there at all times.
Anyway, it is a massive gym, but those 3 really stand out and any regular would know who you are talking about. We have plenty elite athletes so no one is known as the "gym alpha" since at any given moment probably 10-20 people there can rep 310+ on bench
>>34884846
Oh also we have Black Machop
4'8' black midget who can bench 310 for reps and is a doorman/security at the local night club. He is extremely skinny and does not remotely look like he has the upper body strength he has.
>>34879169
These are my daily encounter at the gym
The Squirter
>Always do cardio first while squirting water on his face, drips everywhere, comes to do quarter reppin with light weight on machines squirts water everywhere, never bring towel, leaves a wet trail everywhere he goes, severe invincible lats syndrome so bad he walks with a hunchback, always wear his annual company football jersey and bicycle spandex
Gynoga
>Recovering fatty, but don’t see him losing any weight since I joined gym a year ago, always do cardio first and enters free weights area covered in sweat, leave weights everywhere while doing shitty circuit works, always wears loose tank top revealing sideboobs with tight yoga pants, coat hangs his wet clothes while he go to shower
Benchjumper
> (2nd time encounter) full homo dyel Asian, after every set of 40 kg. bench, starts doing modify version of jump & jacks, kicks his legs backward as far as possible while alternating his hands to clap in front and over top of his head, seems to snap his head left and right while jumping too, flex and takes selfies
Buttercups
>Cardiobunny who always comes to free weights area after cardio, graces all with her 10/10 body, but have butterface, irregardless would mire dat ass eryday
Mr. Miyaki
>Quiet old Asian man, only comes weight to do sit-ups on decline bench, sometime catch him mires my compounds, waiting one day when he offers to teach me karate
>>34884846
>The Duplicator
Almost the exact same story.
Go to a gym near a Marine Base in San Diego. There's this white guy who was there like 90% of the time I was at the gym. That's pretty notable because sometimes I go in the morning, sometimes after work. My "routines" are never routine. Basically a vanilla gorilla, 6'4" at least, 300 at least, a little chubby but still you could tell that guy could fucking lift a house. Had a face kind of like WWF wrestler the Big Show, kind of a dumb slack jawed look on his face.
Then a few months later I saw him and his identical twin lifting. You could tell half the gym was thinking the same thing "oh shit there are two of them, thaaaaaaaaaaat's why"
It got super obvious later when one of them kind of let himself go and the other one cut to like 10% BF. The one who cut even had his dumb look go away, his facial aesthetics went up at least 2 points.
But yeah I'll never forget when I started lifting there thinking "man, this guy works out all day every day. Guess that's what it takes to make it".
>The Plumber
This dude is a plumber or some shit I think, did some work in my parents house once. 6'6 at least, mid 40s and built like a fridge with low-ish bodyfat. Only saw him at the gym once, he was wearing flip flops and board shorts and did 5 sets of the heaviest OHP I've ever seen and left.
Have some regulars and have to post them
>OG Mexicano
Has been lifting for years has thick spanish accent easily 5'4" and recently became a pt

>>34884934
>irregardless
Theres a few interesting regulars at my gym. Mostly everyone is normie-tier but these fuckers are straight from a cartoon
>Gaindalf
Old dude with long grey hair and a beard. Is at the gym every time I'm there, I dunno if its coincidence or is he there every day. Doesn't talk much, but I always think he's some sort of muscle wizard. Wears a grey baggy college hoodie and grey sweatpants.
>The best friend
A DYEL dude who I see pretty often, talks with everyone, is super nice to everyone. Gets annoying sometimes when he talks constantly and acts like we're friends.
>Mama-bear
A tall stocky milf who lifts heavy, very flirty and nice. Sometimes comes and talks to me. She's confusing my oedipus complex coz she looks like my mom... And I want to dick her.
Also sometimes comes with apparently her husband who is a bit younger than her and obv on gear.
>>34884882
How the fuck is that even possible
>/fit/ incarnate
Not awfully huge, inconspicuous gym clothes, nondescript hair, cute face. Strong as fuck, saw him deadlift 200kg for reps, whole gym was shaking. Went up to him to compliment him and he sperged out on me lel
>Bait
What the fuck how can a woman be so desirable. Probably 15yo, blonde, perfect and cute face and a body to drive any man insane. Tfw
>Superheroin
Ginger girl, spends about half an hour doing insane stretches, then squats mad plates like it ain't no thing and gives people advice and is generally friendly and pleasant. Always wears crazy galaxy leggings, high red socks and a blue tee
>the collector
College age beta male with one of each 1-10 kg dumbell around him curling in the squat rack. Will always claim to be using the weights. Does nothing when you laugh and take what you need.
>>34879169
>Homeboy
Chill as fuck stoner buddy of mine who works the desk, but does 135lb 3/4 rom squats and curls and plays more basketball than any other exercise, but he's a good dude.
>Superhero
Guy's a lead singer in a semi-successful rock band and teaches BJJ and boxing. He used to be an MMA fighter in the pre-sanctioned days where the audience was gangsters and criminals and there were no time limits. Has superhero related tattoos and is always interesting to converse with.
>Statebros
Many, many scrawny, bench and arms only kids/manchildren who attend the local state university and have to let everyone know by wearing t shirts, shorts, color-coordinated shoes, hats from there. Have horrible form on every exercise.
>Muchacho
Quiet, young Hispanic guy who does olympic lifts and compounds. One of few lifters I see with good form. Might be a /fit/izen since his legs are more muscular than his upper body.
>Captain Insecurity
Dude's like, 5'10" 195 and decent aesthetics but wears a bodybuilding.com tank every day, convinced it's the only shirt he owns. Always see him doing some sort of "pump up" exercise like curls, shoulder presses, bench press, and grab on his cardio bunny girlfriend whenever any guy with size or aesthetics walks by.
>Monkey brothers
Two brothers, not twins but facial features look almost identical. Tall has been at is for a while, decent lifts and physique. Good squat and dl. Small just started, has a beard and good upper body but no legs to speak of. Always climbing on shit during rest between sets, as in, standing on top of the squat rack, climbing on the leg press weights etc etc
>Dark anon
Like dark Link, except still white. Same height and about the same level of attractiveness, comparable lifts across the board. Always some rivalry but we share a squat rack or bench sometimes, no animosity other than healthy competition
>Viking
I'm studying in Sweden for a year and there's always a couple of these. Tall, long beard, either buzzcut or a good mane, dark clothes, Norse mythology symbols somewhere be it a tattoo, shirt or mjolnir pendant. Usually strong enough and always friendly. Swedes are friendly people in general though
>>34881335
Good visualization
>Lat twins
2 ripped twins always doin lat exercises and lightweight extremely high reps on everything. Havn't seen one in months and the other is a bro but has a different schedule than me so I don't see him
>ButterBean
The spitting image of ButterBean, he is the manager of the gym. Bit of a cunt, never seen him lift.
>WonderWhite
extremely skelly, extremely pale kid. Think his gay, he's been going as long as me but has made no gains.1 time he used the only available bench at the time to do 45 minutes of curls while leaning against it
>OLY Guy
Has good stats at everything except what's needed for weightlifting. Has almost broken the mirrors a dozen times because they put the platform against a it. Always tidying up, bringing the bumper back to the platform because people keep using them for machines n shit
He's also me
>>34880747
Yeah...you sound like a cunt.
Who /uninterestinggym/ here? My gym is in the middle of all the student housing, so all I get is mainly uni students.
>The topLADS
A group of about 6/7 uniLADS that go to the pub and Nando's after their "workout", do half-bench presses and curls, and sit on their phones when they're resting, drinking protein shakes.
>The MILF
About 40, has kids, usually comes in early morning and works on the treadmill and does weighted lunges in tight yoga pants, exposing her sagging arse to everyone. Would berry, but got no idea why.
>The chubby cardiobunnies
Work on the treadmill and talk about bullshit, annoying fucks. Think they go to uni too.
There's a few ham planets that come in and quit almost instantly, but that's about it.

>the overseer
Friendly older gentleman, in great shape for his age, manages the gym. Likes to saunter up to people in between sets and blow them out in the most polite way possible if their form sucks.
>the stronk womyn
Only two girls who actually come there to lift. One is butch and always yelling catch phrases at her friend. Friend is qt big assed azn with some sort of Aussie accent. I feel like butch would cockblock me instantly and haven't even tried.
>squats bro
Bear mode, looks to be legitimately doing ss + GOMAD, probably posts on fit. Unfortunate that there's no non autistic way to bring it up in conversation.
>pajeet, the dumbell hoarder
Pajeet starts his workout by stretching for half an hour, then takes 2-3 pairs of dumbells into a side area and does God knows what with them for an hour. I get the impression he's been working out for years and is just now starting to look like maybe he works out occasionally.
>Asian me
Wiry Asian guy who does almost every exercise I do at the same weight. He's worked his way up from skinnyfat while I've been working my way down from fatfat. Only person at the gym I actually talk to.
>>34881762
I may know Muscle tits...not personally but know her face and stories.

Introduced himself as greg when he saw me squatting lmao 3pl8. He squats 185 but yells and grunts the whole time. Really tries to get in with the powerlifters at my gym but doesn't recognize himself as DYEL
>Sri Lanka Lanks
Indian lanklords that smell like shit, workout in orange polos, and generally congregate near the smith machine
>Big goys
Two massive fucks with beards that do a lot of dumbbell work. Incline DB 100 lbs, I M impressed.
>The fucking track team
Come in and do absolute shit form oly lifts. Power cleaning with just 10 lb bumper plates and terribly at that.
>>34880661
stretching before squats is critical you kekhold. Especially if you're on a squat intensive program.
>Slowmo - Old Jew
Comes in and pre-loads 3 different squat racks. Proceeds to do one set, take 5 minutes to do yoga on a bench across the gym and stop you if you get moderately close to his equipment. "I know I'm slow but I've got it all set up. Give me a few minutes, okay?"
>The Bro-scientist
Gonna dominate the rack and drop my weights after every set. Just going to let them fall like the Berlin wall. And when I do deadlifts i'm going to complete the lift and drop my weights. Because I'm a faggot
>The Pack a Day
Old woman who smokes in her car, does 30m of the bike, has another cigarette outside and completes 30m on a different bike

>>34879169
>Little Bigvoice
Little black guy, looks quite strong. If somebody is squatting in the 2.5-3pl8 range he WILL offer to work in, even if there are other squat racks free. He then proceeds to "encourage" whoever it is with the loudest, most aggressively shouted slogans in between reps:
"SHOW ME SOMETHING" (seems to be his favourite one)
"THAT WAS TOO EASY, HUH?"
"THAT'S NOTHING"
"SIX MORE" (to a guy doing sets of five)
"YOU BETTER DO ANOTHER ONE, I'M NOT HELPING" (to a guy stuck at the bottom of his squat)
"YESSSSSS MAN, YES" (at the end of any set)
He seems to intimidate people into breaking their PRs, and seems really nice and friendly when he's not working in or spotting.
>Izzy Gunna
Skinny hipster guy with topknot, big beard and a little bit of a gut, despite mostly being pretty thin. Always loads up around 3.5pl8 on the squat rack, gets under the bar (everyone is discreetly watching, visibly thinking "surely he can't!") he heroically unracks it, then either just stands there for a few seconds and reracks, or does 5 squats with 1/512th range if motion. I genuinely think the bar moves less than an inch per rep. I've literally never seen him do anything else at the gym.
>Gimli, son of Gloin
Looks like Gimli trying to go incognio in a human gym, short hair and stubble, but you can tell he's hairy as fuck. About 5'4 tall and 5'6 wide, looks incredibly strong, is a competitive powerlifter.
>Feelsbadgirl
One of the only girls I see who lifts seriously, pretty impressive, cause she's not more than 5'1, has a tiny waist, but her PR deadlift was 3pl8, which must be 3x bodyweight. Weird feels in the gym when she's there, you see all the smaller guys faces drop as she loads up more weight than them and lifts it for reps with great form. I'm mirin her strength:bodyweight ratio so hard though. Also manages to disprove that lifting makes a girls look manly. She has a crazy hourglass figure.
There are others, we have a weird bunch at our gym. Will post more.
> Lifting Bull
Native American that lifts with a loud war cry but otherwise silent, always at gym
Never changes size
>international relationships
A Pakistani and a white dude, both covered in tattoos. I see them once a week and they're always squatting heavy when I do.
>the big guy
Easily the fattest dude I've ever seen in person, met him this past Monday. He benched 5pl8s for reps
>the brown backs
Two Indian dudes, I've seen them squat sometimes but they have whole days in which they only do lat pulldowns
>legs lady
See her once a week, only ever training legs. She looks like she's in a constant state of being mad.
>dank arms
Looks like he blazes it every night, has dreads. Smells dank all the time. Only ever trains biceps and triceps
>lady and the tramp
Qt Asian and a chubby beta. Between sets she sits on snapchat and has the beta adjust the weight, including when they change machines
>chest Bros
See them only train chest, sometimes they squat. Always joke about using steroids to get cut.
>the milf
Qt Mexican milf, she does a lot of leg work. Keeps to herself and is sometimes the only person at the gym (late night).
>the music major
Brings a fucking guitar to the gym because he's too poor to have a car to keep it in
>I'm the music major
> Mumbles
Some "slow" kid who is always accompanied by a supervisor, mostly girls.
The girls always sit at the bar and chat to the staff while mumbles performs a single rep on every machine in the gym, all the while grunting like an animal.
He talks to everyone but is barely audible and typically asks everyone if they're competing.
Regardless of age, physical status and shit.

Not kidding, I mean not one of those super small waists that mega skinny girls have, but significantly smaller than hips. Tbf, I've seen her fail it once, and succeed it once, and only for one rep.
in Miami at a shitty LA Fitness, so there are plenty of those guys who are still chestbros.
>Asere 1 (AKA penis head):
completely bald, looks to be on gear, always doing chest/shoulders/back/arms and squatting maybe once every two weeks, 1/8 real rom on squats, call him penis head because he just resembles a dick. moderately strong, decently cut
>Asere 2:
often with asere 1, same qualities except he's horrendously loud and stronger than asere 1, but looks worse
>the gargoyle
about 5' tall guy, only does machines and when he's resting is basically perched on them with his feet together on top of the thing you put your feet under. looks like shit, weak as shit
>nega-chest and the altitude mask gang
group of 3-5 depending on the day of kids around 18-21(estimated) who all look like shit and do partial rom everything, almost invariably take at least an hour at any machine/bench/rack they go to, complete idiots who constantly take photos together and take turns hitting on gym sluts who turn them down. call the leader negachest because he has moderately developed everything on his upper body except his chest (probably because he never benches, only spoto presses)
>pl girl
pretty cute grill, high test body, follow each other on ig after talking one day, much older than I am. would try to fuck if I wasn't in a relationship
>the autistic nogf loser
Me
>>34889321
Eh breh all you need to do is warm up the muscles and do slight hip mobility routines. If you full out stretch before you work out you are gonna hit snap city.
>The untapped rage
Seemingly normal guy about 6'' built to play sports. Normally chill and keeps to himself but if something in the gym catches his ire expect several dozen doses of steroids to come exploding out. Expect the door out of the gym to have a fresh new dent as he leaves still yelling about people changing the background music from rap to rock.
>Giga Nigga
Curls in the squat rack. Throws the plates on the ground when he's done with them. By the time he leaves all of the plates are piled on the floor
>P-Diddly
Deadlifts 1pl8 in front of a bench. The bench is reserved for his girlfriend to watch.
>Phobos and Deimos
Two fatbodies who show up at New Years or the start of winter. They'll half-heartedly use ab crunch machines for that there spot reduction.
>I'm here because someone else wants me to be here
Dude walks in, parks his ass into the leg press machine. Proceeds to sit there over the course of an hour, doing a grand total of 4 sets over this timespan with maybe 180 lbs set. Spends all his time texting or something on his phone

>The mafia twins
2 Italians, not beast but solid body. Always together speaking Italian with each other. Rarely talk to anyone else.
>Ali the prophet
actually called Ali, Older Iranian guy, thought I was a middle-eastern guy (people think I'm all sorts of different nationalities). told me it's important to look into family roots. his son has just recently started looking into his family history. Said it's important for men to talk to each other in the gym. Actually nice guy, though a rare sight in Switzerland.
>the cunts
2 5/10 bitches who show up, one doing a machine, the other talking shit about people at the gym. they switch positions and do like 5 machines in total. end up on the cross trainer for 10 minutes and then leave.

fat woman member of the staff, seems to only clean stuff.

Guy is the epitome of dad bod, srcawny ass limbs and a beer gut with a literal neckbeard. I don't think he knows I'm actually an active duty marine kek. Also he shills some men's health "get ripped in 30 days!" Book that he tried to sell to everyone in the gym

>the cunts
I've been to 6 gyms in the last 2 years, and these bitches are guaranteed to be there. Especially funny when you hear them talking shit about the QTs at the gym.
>The Squatlet
5'6" maybe dude, muscular but not big, nor cut, does like 15 sets of 1pl8 squats, rests then does 4pl8, then 5pl8 wtf. Perfect form. Goes over to the leg press, spends 15 minutes getting it to 9pl8. does 10 reps.
Talk to him, ask for his routine and how long it took him, spergs out.

Workout like a beast but no hip rom so avoids leg day, his buddies force it on him though, gets excited when post w/o food involves rice and rice accessories

>The feeble recovering fatass
Doing SL, weak lifts but losing fat. Really bad squat but good DL. Long arms. Reads between lifts. Spots the...
>cutie3.14
Has a better squat than the recovering fatass but hates rows, she'll do 15 minutes of really stupid looking cardio before her workout, but doesn't wear bra or pants, so it's ok. Really likes lifting and motivates the recovering fatass. Ass of the gods.
>The cats
Two bro cats who like to sperg around. They can go full retard and jump at you when you lift so you have to look for them.
Homegym master race.
>The Magical Roid bros

I showed up to rugby practice in forest green pajamas with black puppy paws on them.
Coach made me run 1600 meters and laughed the whole time. then he had them practice hitting on me. I was a 210 pound history buff nerd that just liked playing rugby because it reminded me of medieval combat. atleast we won state for D1 in the hardest state... he only let me start for varsity 5 times... shame.
Regardless I'm going on a tangent.
I wore puppy paws to practice and the coach had all the other kids kick my ass. it was a good time.
>>34879992
who is it?
>>34879992
instability develops intramuscular coordination.
Intramuscular coordination is generally considered a strength adaptation.
Its much easier to do an exercise with a barbell than it is with two dumbells half of that barbells weight.
That being said he could have began by training hypertrophy and then moved on to a strength routine.
>>34880668
I just found out today that upright rows are supposed to be bad for me... fuck
>>34880661
Common gmy misconceptions
>stretching before workout is bad.
It is only bad if you do not warm up before you stretch, cold stretching is bad, pre-workout warm stretching is absolutely ideal for training.
>>34896090
>taking off protection between exercises
A good way to waste 15 minutes of your gym time without training.
do you mean soft knee braces or actual skating rigid knee pads?
Solid knee pads is retarded af
but it's so fucking easy to fuck your knees up you cannot even imagine, probably the most common injury, on par with ankles.
>>34897072
just make sure you do it with a fully extended spine, like when you do squats and you'll be fine.
But if you loosen and arch your back at all then stop, you probably aren't strong enough for that exercises or weight yet, and you will be running the risk of back injury
>>34897124
Back safety is never really an issue with upright rows. The fact that its a weighted impingment test is the problem.
>>34897124
I'll just do shrugs anyway. I always like shrugs. I did hex shrugs for the first time today. it was a blast
.>>34897136
shrugs are better anyways right? I just liked upright rows cuz the guy in the dmx video did em lol
>>34897146
Shrugs and upright rows can't really be compared - different target muscles. Its like asking whether bench is better than pullups.
>>34897154
well wtf do you suggest
>Creepy Jew
This dude comes in in improper gym attire, sometimes fucking jeans. Emaciated physique, hunch, Jew face with a balding Jew fro. Only lifts on the machines, and only on the absolute lightest setting. Spends 75% of his time in the gym trying to hit on girls who are just trying to have a peaceful workout. He's sometimes successful at getting their numbers. Autists, take note.
>Turbo-Nerd
This guy has the face, glasses, and early 20s balding (he has a shaved head, but the stubble shows a severely receding hairline) of a DnD stereotype. Also extremely pale. But my god is he fucking swole. Dude deadlifts, benches and squats more than anyone in the gym. Has his own set of plates in extremely small increments for ultimate linear progression. Grunts extremely loudly during lifts. His grunting attracts the attention of many people in the gym. Between sets he talks to them about lifting and shows them proper form. On deadlift days he wears huge, black space marine boots.
>The Pajeet twins
Two Indian dudes who come in together. Always smell like shit. Spend their entire time doing extremely weird dumbell exercises.
>Trap king
This guy will spend over 45 minutes just doing shoulder shrugs with the heaviest dumbells. Huge traps

>Sikh dude
Fairly built Indian dude. Sikh, always wearing the head attire. Benches 2pl8+. Pretty bro dude.
>Frat bros
Two frat dudes who work out together. Always wearing t-shirts with greek letters on them. Shout weird shit to each other as encouragement, greek letters frequently come up.
>Mr. Smith
Dude is only on the smith machine. He does bench press, upright rows, OHP, squat and other exercises on the smith machine, but he never leaves the smith machine.
>Maximum Bro
Looks like Zach Efron. Has a shitty shoulder tribal tat. Wears the skimpiest tanks possible. Wears loose sweats. I expect his legs are underdeveloped. Gives off maximum douche aura. Despite this, his upper body is fucking built. I'm miring.
>Asian dude and asian girlfriend
Foreign couple. The guy does dumbbell exercises, his girlfriend watches. He takes a bench, and gets a set of 15s, 20s, 25s, 30s, and 35s all to himself, then proceeds to do dumbbell shit for his entire workout. She does nothing.
>Samoan Sam
He's Samoan and his name is Sam (I assume). 6"something, 100kg+, benches 5 plates, squats even more. Gyms token islander guy, built like a motherfucker.

The holy trio of tradies that come in everyday, always as 3 and always wearing work uniform. Love having loud as fuck conversations so the whole gym can hear and only doing upper body.
