Wanna slap some idiots?

deeturnerjr72 · 12-18-2007, 04:02 PM

So I was doing leg/bicep today when this fucking idiot comes into the gym. Hes about half my size thickness wise but a little taller.
This fucking idiot puts a plate on each side of the BB. Then proceeds to start doing BB curls.
Im thinking to myself, "Goddamn 2 plates would be hard for me to do. This moron must be either stupid or really stronge for his size."
Here is how he proceeds...

He picks the BB up to do the curl....lunges his back into a reverse arch as far backwards as it will go with his ass sticking far out....thrusts his entire body forward with his hips out in front of him as far as they will go as he tries to lift the BB...then arches his shoulders as far back as they can possibly go and almost falls backward as he pulls the weight up into the top of the curl.

I wanted to go over to him and slap the stupidity out of him, but I withheld the best I could.
He did 2 reps like this (if you wanna call em reps) then puts on a couple more 10lbs plates.
I didnt even watch this time. I couldnt bear it.

Do you have morons like this in your gym? Am I being too hard on this guy? I didnt say anything to him because Im not being payed to be his personal trainer, but I really wanted to.
I know Im far from being a pro BB'r but when I see idiots doing stupid shit like this it makes my brain hurt, LOL!
I cant begin to imagine how his bench press form is...

P.S. sorry for the language, but I needed to vent, LOL!

That guy will smarten up when he gets hurt. I think most gyms have at least a few people in them who clearly don't know what the hell they're doing. It's frustrating. I usually don't say anything. I find that it's best to lead by example.

I didnt think of that. I wish I would have gotten it on my camera. My description no way compares to actually seeing what this guy was doing, LOL!

THIS JUST IN!: Stupidity can NOT be slapped away, it must be removed via boreing a hole through their skull with a 5/8" drill bit

with that said, gym idiots suck.

I wanted to very badly. Im very strict about form. Maybe if hes in there again doing that jacked up shit Ill incline myself to say something. Its just sometimes I feel its best to mind my own business.
I can get rawd up easily sometimes. Wouldnt want to get kicked out of the gym cause I cant control my composure if he had gotten smart with me or something.
I need to learn more people skills i guess, LOL!

I used to find it frustrating....but now i have seen so many that all i can do is be amused, I mean, i have seen alot of blokes do the same thing. But i daresay we as a group all get that rising urge to stomp somone out who would be stupid enough weight train without seeking the proper advice...all they have to do is ask.
