Funny things you see in the gym

One time I was doing jump ropes and I punched myself in the face.

You just made my day. That's awesome.
 
theres a very pleasent man who regulary comes to the gym. he is very feminine and tends to wear hot pants, tights and pumps (and applys fake butterfly tattoos on his legs) i say hello to him just because ive seen him so many times and feel its polite. anyway...

on a few occasions now, he has come up to me when i have been on the tredmill and says to me 'when your finished can i show you something?' and being polite i say 'yeah ok' so i go over to him near the main entrance of the gym and he brings out a box from his locker and shows me some new bright pink sparkly high heels he's bought! i kinda look at him in amasement and reply 'they are lovely!' (just an instinct lol) he looks at me so excited 'well you have to treat your self once in a while! and there good for getting my boogie on!!' and he continues to bring new glittery shoes he has purchased.

its not the fact that i dont like his high heels (lol) its just that i find it quite hilarious that he feels the need to show me his entire collection of womens high heels when i dont hardly know him!
 
I saw a new one today, there was an overweight guy doing what I can only describe as 'walking 1/4 lunges'. I'm sure it was meant to be walking lunges but he looked more like John Cleese in the Ministry Of Silly Walks sketch.

Maybe he was just sore from squating or something :confused:

I got another funny one. I saw this guy the other day, never seen him before, who is about 6 1, really skinny, very boney legs. He loaded up the sitting calf machine with three 45 pounds weights. I then saw him trying to lift it by bending to the sides, then all the way back, and bending all around while making grunting noises. It looked like he was doing some type of weird robot dance, but I think he was serious. I don't know if he actually got a workout doing that.

Or not strong/flexible enough to go down as far as he should.

this has assrape written all over it. Run man, run and never look back.
 
whoops, ****. I gotta learn to look at user names before i post.. It makes a bit more sence. It would be more disturbing if he showed his new high heels to another man..
 
I posted this once in the men's weight training area, but I thouht I would again.


Today, as I walked into my gym, to my terror I saw 6 people in the freeweight section. I was going to have to wait to use the weights.

BUT WAIT!

All of them were doing either bench, chest press, or curls.

My partner and I are the only ones that do squats.

After I cheerily (and by that I mean I was exhausted) left the gym, I signed out at the front desk and I told the lady there my joy at finding no one does squats.

This lady, a personal trainer, said squats were bad for you...

Yes folks, there you have it. Squats are bad for you.
 
BEfore I tell you my funny story. I want you to know that I am not making fun of severly overweight people.

Now for the story.

Today, as I was doing my workout (lower day, if you wanted to know) I noticed a rather large man walk in and immediately set himself on a bike. I sighed because cardio probably wasn't working for him, until I realised something. Cardio wasn't his problem. Not doing cardio may have been his problem.

The man was SLEEPING on the exercise bike. Once I finished 5x5 deadlift with 90 seconds break, he was still sleeping! That's like 10 minutes right there.

Maybe you had to be there to see it, but it was the funniest thing I'd seen all day.
