OK... it's time again: Crazy gym stories!

[Got Gear?]

It's been a while...let's hear your stories about the craziest thing you've ever seen in the gym. Wether, it's the guy grunting and yelling like an idiot, to the dude who shat his pants going for that last squat...or the guy you saw loose a finger when the weight stack fell on it. Let's hear them stories....

My story: This happened almost 2 years ago now. I workout at my local YMCA. The gym is on the 2nd floor and 1 side has huge sloped out windows overlooking the pool at about a 45* angle. You can basically lie face down on the glass and look straight down at the pool below.

I had finished my workout and was just wrapping things up with a little cardio. When doing cardio I like to watch the kids in the pool (some of their dives are hilarious). So I'm sweating away on the bike when I notice this kid start loading weight onto the bench press bar beside me. I watch as he throws on 2 45lb plates and think to myself "Damn he's tougher than he looks". Then the kid nearly floored me by putting on another 2 45lb plates. So then I start thinking "I know how this is going to go... 2 reps of very shitty form". But the tough guy wasn't done yet... he then throws on 2 25lb plates....for a grand total of 275lbs includeing the bar.

So I'm watching this kid thinking.. no way he's going to do this...if he does more than like 4 reps of decent form, he's outlifting me! When I look back at it...It was impressive that he even managed to un-rack the weight.

So yes you guessed it.. that kid had about 2x as much weight on there as he could handle. And that weight came crashing down on him. I actually got distracted by a hottie walking by, but that "Ugh" and whoosh of air told me all I needed to know....

I got up to give this kid a hand and that's when it happened! Before I could get to him, the kid turned and kinda threw the weight up and off to his side... and right through the glass window!! The bar and weights went through the window, and crashed down to the pool deck about 12 feet below.

At first I was horrified. The pool was busy and I was certain that there was going to be badly hurt children. But a few seconds of surverying told me that luckily no-one had been hurt. That weight bent the bar all to hell and smashed a few tiles... but those were the only victums. What a mess, glass all in the pool,children crying, Upset and angry parents...

That's when I got angry... luckily the gym staff kicked him out and revoked his membership. Havn't seen him since.

Hehe, There are two fat guys at the gym I used to go to that think they know all there is to know. They're constantly giving people advice, grunting, and yelling. They are two big dicks! They always load up LOTS of weight, and throw up one rep with horrible form, and a spot.

One day in particular, one of them apparently loaded up too much weight, and while he handled the descent pretty well, he had lots of trouble going back up. His spot started helping him, but they didn't get the bar racked before big boy let out a big ol juicy fart! The guy got up, and walked out of the gym holding his shoulder, and didn't even tell his friend bye!hehehe

It was fuckin hilairious, but GG's story tops them all I think!

One time at band camp.........no wait... this is the gym!!!!!! one time at the YMCA....I was minding my own buisness and having a good time swimming. Do you ever have one of those feelings like you being watched....yep I did! I started looking around looking for the hot babe that was checking me out. I knew she must be hot cause my ass was getting hot (cause she was staring at it im sure). The all of a sudden I looked up at the big glass wall that over looks the pool from the gym to see this big fat guy riding a bike and staring at me! YUK!!! Dude Im not gay...what the phuck is he looking at! And if that was not bad enough....he was freeballin and had his junk hanging out for everyone to see! What a FAG! When he sees that everyone is looking he got up and went to the showers! He was waiting there for me I know!!!!! Fooled him( the lil fag) and i got out of the pool and went home. left my clothes there! What a fag....rideing the bike watching guys in the pool while freeballin! This big ol world has all kinds in it! And i guess cause it was in canada maybe!

Lol great stories

1. Saw a guy shit himself doing leg presses with about 400 lbs, he looked like he wanted to kill himself he was so embarrased.

2. Saw a guy doing 100 lb dumbell shrugs and dropped one of the dumbells onto a HUGE gallon water bottle filled with some colored liquid. The bottle literally exploded and red stuff flew about 20 feet all over everything and everyone in the area.

3. There is a lady at my gym who DANCES on the treadmill. She does like a mexican salsa dance on it and runs backwards and all sorts of insane crap. Well one time she fell while running backwards and shot straight off the treadmill head first onto the floor. I nearly spit up my protien shake while watching this.

i watched a guy try to deadlift way more than he could he started yelling and knocked all the barbells off the rack and walked out.


my workout partner is one of those suave goodlookin ladies man types he was eyeballin this girl walkin through the gym he elbowed me to look when she looked up at him and smiled she kept walking their eyes were locked together and she took the end of a bar fully loaded in a squat rack right in her throat with her head turned. i swear i thought she was gonna die, she was coughing and crying. my buddy ran laughing to help her i went too the gym manager and called 911. a week later she was back with a huge blue green bruise on her throat. my boy didnt get the hookup on that one.

About 6 months ago, saw this guy swimming laps in the pool NAKED!!! you have to go through the locker rooms, mens or womesn to get to the pool so i guess he thought is was a mens-only pool, but still - c'mon dude!!! a budy of mine that saw went and told the manager. that's why i don't swim in community pools... nasty!
