TweetPeople are self centered bro. My gym most people still rack their weights. Thing that bugs me is all the people flexing and taking selfies or sitting on a bench not training and looking at their phone.

that and motherfucking tripods videoing their entire workouts. i loose my shit on someone almost on a daily basis. cool thing for me is i am close to a military installation that doesnt allow it at all. so i go there quite frequently.

this new generation blows my mind man. i asked one kid who the fuck are you and what the fuck have you done in your life to be showing people how to do anything. as he lightly curls his 20lbs on the cables while screaming like he is dying and posing between each set. that was a gentle losing my shit instance but i have had some bad ones where they packed it up and left. good thing the main owner of the gym likes me because i would have been canceled a long time ago if not

Oh man! It feels like have the gym is filming their workouts but might be newbies at best. My son had this short troll walk up to him and asked him how to use a certain machine. She said she needed to add it to her filming.

I just stare. My times already being wasted to engage with stupidity just makes my workout suck!

haha man, i had this punk come up to me and ask me to video him doing tbar rows. he had the tbar loaded all the way to the end with 45s, so it was a shit ton of weight. i obviously told him yeah go fuck yourself you clown. he got someone else to do it and i was watching him as i did cardio. he literally did a single. i know exactly what he was doing too. he did the single and was going to loop it and make it look like he did a bunch of reps. i hate what the gym culture and society has became. i stay 100% completely covered up in a hoodie and everything year round. in prep for the last week all the way into the off season. if i do pull it off to do cardio or before i leave because it's 100 outside, i always get 19 different people trying to ask me stupid questions. i have even had a couple youngsters say they thought i was a power lifter and were blown away at how big and in shape i was haha. that's because i do it for me not the bs attention and likes on social media. i do put a video teaser up every now and then

Dealing with distractions at the gym can indeed be frustrating, especially when it involves someone using workout time for purposes other than fitness. It's essential to stay focused on your own goals and not let external factors negatively impact your workout experience.

Oh yeah we have a guy who streams his WOs. he is a big mofo and juiced to the gills. One time He was filming and I happened to be in the back ground. Do not know what came over me but I started aggressively scratching my balls then flipped the bird to the phone which was on the tripod.

i get the power lifters who are using top level online coaches needing critiques on their lifts. i do understand that aspect but all these other clowns absolutely irritate the ever more piss out of me man. it is more of a pet peeve of mine than putting weights back. in my normal gym it is one of two people doing it. 1- the fat guy or 2- the really skinny lanky guy and both of them think they are mister olympia. never anyone that is impressive doing these sort of things. the dude i lost my shit on was sinking his whole life into becoming a famous trainer/influncer. he didnt have a car after he got out of the marines and could barely afford to eat but was sinking everything into that game. he even moved out to veince beach last year. i am all about chasing your dreams and all but you have to have a back up plan and if you cant pay the bills to begin with then you need a normal job that can pay your bills. people's opinions of themselves blow my mind. i have always tried to surround myself with people that would shoot me straight and not blow smoke up my ass. now if someone ask you your opinion and you shoot them straight you are just jealous of how great they are and they get all butt hurt.
i know i may suck but i work hard and give it all i got and at the end of the day i leave nothing on the table. that's the best i can do with shit genetics and i enjoy the process for the process and not the attention
