Dumb asses at the gym

Re: Dumb asses at the gym

I had it this morning at my gym. Guy pulled the olympic bar off the bench press. Brought it over to the open squat rack. Grabbed a 80 lb dumbell to lock one end of the bar on the ground. Used the close grip seated row apparatus to wrap around the other end of the bar.

Proceeded to do bent low rows with only a FKING 45 lb plate on the bar.

After his 4 sets, he trotted over to the hammer strength lat pull down machine in his best John Wayne walk impression and puffed out like a puffer fish.

He left all that equipment sitting right where he left it.

I flipped shit cause I was getting ready to do squats. I asked him politely to return all his stuff. He kinda acted like I was bothering him.

In a soft voice I explained to him that if I had to move his equipment to continue my workout that he would not have the ability to ever do a bent row ever again.

I turned around and started to go back over to the squat rack with every intention of moving his stuff. Before I got 5 steps he was up and apologizing, heading over to return the equipment where he got it from.

I cannot stand people who leave weights on the machine or don't return equipment from where they got it.

Respect your gym.

True..gym etiquette goes a long ways..

I can't stand the cross fit people that try to do their giant set's in a normal gym. I was heading over to a flat bench and was informed by this dude that was like 5'8 145# that he was using it (after his set of jumpy things and bear dogs)....fucking hate that shit!!
