this is kinda dumb, but i see people do some pretty weird shit when i workout at the local ymca. i was wondering what everyone else has seen out there. i got the idea when i watched some guy put 10 pounds on a high cable pulldown and proceed to "work " his triceps at 100mph for like 20-30 seconds.

i saw these 2 kids at the bench press... one was doing bench press while the other did barbel curls.... with the same bar...

lol

the funniest thing is the two tubby fat dudes doing "partner curls" with a fixed 35lb. barbell standing a foot away from each other handing it back and forth, or the guy doing upright rows with 60lbs. who stares you down like he's Mike Tyson after you're set of squats of 500 for reps, or the two guys in the locker room who button each others business shirts while they're getting dressed, or the dudes who want to stand there naked for a half hour having a conversation in the locker room, or the guys who have EVERY DAMN LIFTING ACCESORY EVER INVENTED and carry it with them no matter what bodypart their training, how's that for a few

thats not bad, lol. i almost forgot about the guy with all the accessories. i have a guy like that, he trains with his son and makes him carry around this duffel bag full of shit all over the gym. it's hilarious.

the only time i take anything to help me train is on backday.. straps..... sometimes use straps for barbel curls.. but thats it.

this dumbass doesn't even have a bag for it he just dumps the shit on the floor wherever he goes and then picks it all up when he's done

in my bag i carry wrist straps, a belt, knee straps and gloves, just in case. i see no point in changing whats in my bag everyday when i can just carry the same bag.

there's a guy on Cutler's video, New,improved and Beyond, who is doing something i have never seen before, Jay is doing pulldowns and at the other side of the cable machine this black dude has a tricep pushdown bar and he's moving it like he's spinning a wheel, i don't know how in the hell he does it, then there's another Spanish guy who looks to be 5'7" 165 lbs. wearing a sky blue tanktop and white pants walking around with imaginary lat syndrome while 295lb. Jay is explaining a shoulder exercise, i always wonder what these guys feel like wearing a tank top around Jay Cutler, i wish i had they're confidence

a kid at my gym who puts chalk on his hands to use a bicep curling MACHINE

[scrawnybrawny]

this is a whole other thread but i love watching the people in the background of workout videos. people watching kicks ass.

[big D]

then there's the guys who totally look the part, gel in the hair with the backward ballcap, abercrombie shirt and matching shorts, perfect tan, barbed wire tattoo on the massive 15 and a half inch biceps, gym bag the size of a volkswagon, propel water bottle, MP3 player, sunglasses, snow white sneakers with the perfect little ankle socks, cologne, walking around like a movie star, you see them and you think, man, this dude must really know what he's doing, then they do the following back workout, pulldowns, cable rows, partial hyperextensions, then they have the latest greatest protein drink to repair the trauma to their huge, massive lats, hahaha

lou ferigno once came to the gym were i was working that day. he starts of doing his abs and after that some more abs than suddenly an old lady, very angry because lou was sitting too long on the abdominal machine. she said in dutch that if he don't hurry up she will personally remove him so she can use the abdonminal machine.
