    The fact that someone would even ask to change the station is pissing me off thinking about it. Yes let's change the channel for you because everyone likes what you like. Selfish ****head. Get an iPod you ****ing dope.

    Statistically speaking the two busiest months of the year are January and April (sometimes May).

    You have the rush of new years people, and then you have that second push right before beach season when all the new years people realize they haven't stuck to their goals.

    This is one of my favorites. Its amazing how they will actually bodyguard there girls. It seems like the only muscles they work out are the ones associated with mean muggin fools.

    when the trainers clearly see you in the middle of a workout but bring their client into your workout space and act like it's ok

    wait until I'm done or go to the other side of the gym that's COMPLETELY open. /end rant.

    Left bag and bottle on the bench and was returning 80lb DBs to grab 90s.
    Around 3 steps from returning to my spot this &(% plops down and starts

I was working out with him once and he just walks over to 3 bros that were using the preacher curl machine and told them to let me get a set in first. I was like Joey isn't that kinda ****ed up. He goes **** them I'm working right now wtf are they gonna do?

    Your friend Joey needs his ass kicked. That is lame and I have called out the gym trainers that do that crap. They wait like everyone else if I've loaded weights. If their client is doing the same weights as me, then by all means they can jump in.

    If you're paying money for some guy to tell you to do preacher curls, you are dumb, and the trainer is a joke.

    When the only squat rack at my gym gets taken for half an hour by a guy doing overhead presses and 10 degrees of motion squats. Just because you racked 4 45s on there and moved 2 inches, doesn't mean you're getting anything out of it.

    Just gonna throw this in here, if he is a trainer and is working and you were working out with him a logical assumption would be he's training you. I could see how it was misread.

    Personally I'd tell him to **** off and wait like everyone else since he has that attitude.

    He was wearing his trainer shirt. I used to meet up with him and we'd workout in between his appointments. I wasn't defending his actions by posting this story, just thought it was funny because I thought only he did that. It's typical of him.

    Not so much the gym, but I sprained the hell out of my ankle last week and have been basically useless. I hate not being able to do squats/deads but I don't want to try them until i'm sure the ankle is fine.

    Every time I get to the gym, my earphones are in a balled up birds nest. I have no Idea how they get like that, and it takes me 3 minutes to untangle them, and I don't know how to remedy this situation.

    Never are they all tangled up

    You can do that. But I take it one step further and wrap them up, then stuff one end into a chapstick cap.
