I remember my gym phase. Enjoyed it
Covid killed it
I have a squat rack, bench, dumbbells, etc setup in my garage, pal.
Back when I used to go to a gym the thing that annoyed me the most was probably the bros who use 3-4 different things at once.
Covid killed my gym phase for a while and I just rode bikes, did my erg in the garage and push ups. But then partially joined a cuntry club to be like @whlinder and perv on MILFs.
I'd much rather gym equipment at home, but all I have room for is a C2 erg in the garage and kettle bell.
Not parking your cars in the garage is shit AF in my opinion, and my garage ain't big enough for 2 cars + all the gear + a home gym set up. Sucks being a pour.
I get so fucking irritated with the guys taking up multiple pieces of equipment. Just pick one thing and go to the next one you fucking douche bag bonios.
The only piece of equipment which really matters (Concept 2 PM5) is just fine, however this is to reflect the fact my cuntry club gym has 12+ year old TVs which AREN'T FUCKING HD.
Cheap Ass motherfuckers
I'm pretty lucky that my 2-car garage is a big one and I can park cars in it, fit the weight rack, a treadmill, all my tools and storage for things, etc. I'm not doing crossfit in there, but have enough space to maneuver unimpeded. All the new build homes include garages that harken back to the 1920's even as cars are bigger than ever.
Part of my routine is swimming 6-8 full laps as hard as I can after doing the indoor shit. I can be in and out of the pool in about 5-15 minutes.
Too many older people and even some Gen X show up with wearing the gayest shit I've ever seen and the proceed to take almost an hour doing what I feel like isn't even real exercise. Like these people would be better off using the fucking indoor kiddy pool, not taking up a lane like that.
The older generations are just completely insufferable in that regard, pretending like there's not a bunch of people waiting to use their 15 fucking minutes while you doggy paddle for a fucking hour.
The managers are just complete fucking cunts on the topic too.
What do the MAHA wellness influencers on Instagram and YouTube have to say about chlorinated swimming pools?
I don't know but they can suck my ass either way.
There's a goofy as Kiwi trainer at our gym who seems like he's into some odd ball takes. He's big on telling his clients not to go from the sauna into the chlorinated pool. I don't swim for exercise personally. I'm just in there drinking beers and playing life guard.
It's the people sitting on their cell phones for 7-10 minutes between sets. For the love of God, I see how much you're lifting and you don't need a 7 minute rest there. This isn't instagram time. My MO at the gym is get in there, get the frickin' work done, and get out. I don't want to spend 45 minutes standing around while someone else is scrolling tiktok.
He probably just saying that because he doesn't want people jumping in it after sweating like they do in a steam room. Because my gym is completely gay and retarded on the topic of efficiently managing the swim lanes, I don't give a fuck and dive in like that anyways.
Nope that's not it @haie. He was saying the sauna opens your pores which then allows the chlorine toxins to get into your body.
He's also a weirdo who hogs multiple stations at once with his clients so I naturally don't like the guy.
Exactly. 30-35 minutes, you feel like you're going to puke then you've done enough and can gtfo.
The Indians that ask you how many sets you have left right in the middle of a set.
Also the Indians that do their curls right in front of the squat rack and block it.
Mods? Can we add "People talking to me in any way" to the list?
You should also be allowed to legally murder someone that you’ve never talked to, offers up a fist bump as you pass by.
I always wore sunglasses inside the gym
@RaceBannon risky bidness
