About the girl walking around comment, I have only noticed that when I lived in Seattle, and it annoyed me because I already didn't like girls there, then they would walk around like "look at me, look at me." Sorry if you think differently, but I like watching girls actually workout when they go to the gym.

People who act like everyone should be impressed at their feats of strength. We don't care that you bench a lot you douche and you never do cardio anyway so you're probably going to have a heart attack when you're 34.

People just getting into the gym and deciding they need the locker right next to me when they have 200 more to chose from. Apparently they would rather crowd me than use a different locker than this one they just had to have.

I give credit to those lifting a lot. I think only ones who don't are those that are little bitches that can't lift much.

I'm not a fan of people coming up and offering advice on what I should do. I had some little asian dude come up to me and tell me I was doing too many chest exercises. To that point I had done two, as it was the day of the week I did chest/tri's. He went through his entire workout plan telling me how and when he does certain exercises. Everything he mentioned I did in fact do as part of my workout, just on different days. If I was in the market for a trainer, I wouldn't be asking some 5'2" Chinaman walking around in a long sleeved long john shirt with cargo pants on.

Good for them. But lift it and be done with it. Don't prance around like we should all bow before your mighty strength.

Lifting a lot does not = bad

Lifting any amount of weight and then walking around like you're tough shit = douchebag.

I undestand where you are coming from Pants. I lift the same amount if I am alone in the gym or if people are watching. I would rather they were not there. I worked with a guy who works out at West Side Barbell. He Squats 1030 and benches 740.. Nothing but respect for those #s.

If someone can leg press 500 or 1200 lbs. I don't see the point of dissing them. I know Ronnie Coleman does 2400 lb. leg presses. Hell of a feat. Not dissing that Big Mo Fo.

hmm NCFan.. Guess from gerb thats where you were going with that post. And I stand beside what I said.. You are dissing someone I have no clue about.. Not sure if you know them.. Or have a reason to doubt what their accomplishments may or may not be in the gym. Or maybe you are just an antagonizing person.

No, NCF always talks about the leg press leading us all to the belief that is the ONLY thing he does at the gym.

Anyway, I wanted to add another pet peeve.

New Years resolution and spring break posers: I can't stand when the gym is crowded a couple days after new years because some people decided this is the year to lose weight/get in shape. Those same people who show up start disappear after a week, and by the end of the month they are done showing up. Same concept with spring break posers. These people only show up to the gym 1-2 weeks before spring break in an attempt to try to get in shape for the beach, and thats the only time you will see them at the gym. You can just tell they look lost because they never go to the gym.
