NYR Preparation

Eat a plate and shit a dumbell

>>35418089
Ask someone doing squats if they need a spot.
Get in real close as they go down
Push my bulge against their flabby as cheek as they push back up as I whisper "I'll never let you go"

>>35418089
I wish my gym was that empty. Fuck. Next week's gonna be a nightmare.

I'll do what I did last year:

>walking up to squat rack
>see dyel NYR in basketball shorts fruitlessly attempting to curl the barbell
>I walk up to him, grab him by the shoulder, look him in the eyes, then say "you got 5 minutes"
>I then went to the bathroom to insert my lifting plug with my gymbros
>I come back and the kid is still in the squat rack while FUCKING YAWNING
>I grab him by his nirvana t-shirt and yank him out of the rack
>he starts crying, causing his dad and/or gay lover to appear out of nowhere
>"hey man what the hell are you do-"
>I threw a 45 plate at his skull, killing him instantly
>suddenly a gang of dyels runs up to my rack and attempts to fight me
>the first one I grabbed by the neck and choked
>once I had weakened him, I used a barbell to impale his bony body, starting from the anus
>as he screamed in the agony, I yelled "DEATH TO DYELS"
>the dyel was now motionless, as the barbell he was impaled upon leaned against my rack
>suddenly all the actual lifters and even cardio bunnies began attacking dyels
>one women tackles a dyel, then proceeds to smash his face with a 45 lb dumbbell
>after about an hour of anguish, all the dyels had fallen
>suddenly I see gym bro, covered with the disgusting blood of dyel, get up and yell "FREEDOM!!!"
>we all yell with him
>the day was over, and I began to walk out of the gym
>notice something red leaking all over my gym shorts
>realize my lifting plug tore my anus
>fug

By teaching noobs how to do things properly and trying to make it a friendly and welcoming environment.
>lolol lets fuck with the new people and make them feel like shit
>why don't more people work out?!?!?

>>35418089
Stare at them until they ask whether I want to work in. Basically, just like any other day.

Mine is already full. It's been clearing out around 11pm. I'll be leaving in a little bit. I don't like lifting this late at all honestly. I wish I had a power rack at home.

Me asserting my "dominance" is that it's clear from looking at me that I live here ~4 days a week. I don't need to prove anything.

Who else /trynnafuggthenewgirl/ here?

>>35418509
Not him, but I think it's "dee-yells".

my gym took on a lot of new members and was very crowded all year. i'm hoping all these people leave and go to a new gym on a new deal.

Watch youtube videos of lifts you don't know yet (although you should probably stick with the basics right now), don't cut into anyone else's workout, and don't dress like a retard.

>>35419118
I'm just going to wear a normal tshirt and shorts with my running shoes, I get 2 pt sessions with my membership so I'll use them to get him to show me the proper form for the ones I don't know.

>>35418124
First post best post

Got to the gym at 2:45am and it was a fucking mess. Bars with plates laying on the floor, unracked weights all over the place, yoga mats pulled into the free weight section. Someone put bar clips on the rack and then put another plate on the rack. What sort of fucking savage does that?

I know I get to be the gym janitor since I'm a fucking vampire but come the fuck on. It's only going to get worse. Hold me bros.

I kinda agree with you. 01Jan is my deadlift day. Wasn't gonna go for a PR attempt, but might have to anyway. Repping 4pl8 would be gud enuf, rite?

I go to the gym late night so I'm sure nothing will change.

I'm going to keep going at 11pm when normal fags are sleeping. Only the dedicated spend their evenings this way.

>thinks staying up until midnight is dedicated
Try going to the gym at 7am

and go with the morning crowd? topkek

I should add that my gym is across the street from one of Hollywood's most popular bars. I walkout sweaty and accomplished to a line of people across the street looking to drink and party. Faggots.

Deadlifts and clean and jerks with loud grunts (based Gold's operated by powerlifters). The noise should be loud enough to scare off any dyel in a 3 mile radius

It already started in my gym. 1 guy was benching 15 lbs with gloves and 1 foot on top of the bench and another dyel spotting him.

Only downside is no women. Blew my fucking mind when I was home for Christmas to see so many hot girls working out in yoga pants.

Give the lads a chance.
At least their bloddy trying.

Fuck i wear gloves and have that exact drinking bottle. i also still look dyel. atleast im on a nod basis with the regulars so they will know im not new.

>running shoes
>lifting serious weight
Honestly this means you are a dyel, use flat shoes for deads and squats, also you don't need running shoes for the other exercises, not even for cardio. Don't do this.

>>35423227
who.fucking.cares.

What if you want to do cardio after your set, and you have bad kneed/feet?

>hurr durr what you wear to the gym is important

shut the fuck up you literal queer.

>>35423227
as long as someone isnt wearing boots or loafers who really even notices or cares what you have on your feet at the gym?

>>35423277
The only things people wear that actually draw my attention:

Hats (maybe i would do it too if I were balding or something)
Hoodies (i get hot in my t-shirt, why would you do this)
Jeans (I just feel bad for them because it looks miserable)
Boots (yes Ive seen it, the guy was hitting a punching bag)

>>35419193

Whatever you've got will be fine just to start out with, but if you get into squats and deadlifts and stuff, you'll find that running shoes will actually work against you and make it harder to keep your balance in these lifts. You will eventually want to consider getting some dedicated lifting shoes.

>>35421905
Don't stop going after two weeks, lift a respectable weight

small apt gym but has most equipment needed, i.e. 85 pound dumbells

On the cork board I put a sign that said "You're just gonna quit in two weeks, maybe next year."
I'm trying to motivate people to stay and adapt a healthy lifestyle

>>35423303
>Hats

I mean, beanies I get, sure.

But the guys in caps

I don't understand

home gym master-race
i'm so alone

>>35422505
why you use gloves?

I'm not even worried about NYRers after Tuesday's session. My commercial gym had been steadily getting more and more busy over the last few weeks, and I was steadily becoming more and more concerned. Then we had a small ice storm and a bit of snow Monday night (maybe 5cm tops). Go to gym like usual on Tuesday, and it might as well have been closed for how empty it was.

If it all it takes is a bit of bad weather to make NYRers change their mind about heading to the gym, then thank god for Canadian winters.

>>35422350

Fool!
You have to do something you can make look easy as shit this way theyll feel even worse struggling with their babby weights ;^)

>>35425509
They're not necessarily bad, it's just that they attract DYELs with terrible form like no other.
They're like gym fedoras; someone who knows what they're doing won't look like a spastic in them, but they get tainted by people who see them as a shortcut to looking good

>>35418089
I quit my gym and bought a bench. Shits tight.

>>35418089
I just go during the early morning hours every January.

University gym so most students are too lazy to wake up that early.

here is your new years newfag checklist:

>over ear beats headphones

>crossfit/meme slogan shirts

>long socks

>tank tops

>people spending 95% of their time on their phone and 5% of the time lifting (poorly)

>pajeets, pajeets everywhere

>people training in groups of 3+ for no real reason

god I hate new years. at least let there be some hot girls to look at, to make up for this shit.

>>35426810
>over ear headphones
I've been lifting for 5 years and love my over ear beats. Wireless shit is the way to go if you're not a poorfag.

>Tanks
You must be DYEL if you don't like mirin your pump in a tank under that good gym down-lighting

>>35426912

>beats

fuck, why

they are garbage. get some sennheisers.

>>35426930

As good as Sennheisers are, the cable on most of them is far too long to be seriously considered for the gym, unless we're talking IEMs.

>>35427153

in ear is far less annoying than over ear anyways

>>35427183

True enough. When I go, I just use a Bluetooth headset to listen to music/podcasts anyway.

No one has time for that shit.

My gym's already starting to fill up and there's only one squat rack.

It's not too bad because most don't ask/want to work in with me and just stand around until I'm done. If it's already in use, I just ask how many sets they have left and they usually rush.

All the posers will try to power clean without learning it properly, injure their wrists, and leave the gym within months.

All the beta fucks will stay away from free weights and stay on machines and treadmills or on tiny dumbbells or in the bodyweight area.

Why don't you partake in the healthy culture of masculine competitiveness you little faggot?

I'm gonna ask this here so I don't need a separate thread

I've been in the hospital and was not making any physical activity to heal due to an accident and im pretty skinny now.

How can I avoid the flood of NYE fags? Doctors just gave me the ok to be active again

Last year I took a couple of weeks off to avoid the resolutioners and just never went back so now I'm a skinnyfat faggot again.

and I went sorta early, 10am.

fuck me. I think I have to go for 7-8am.

I went at 11am and it was full of kids.

Little pockets of kids talking shit to each other, taking selfies, roaming around fucking with the weights and basically randomly switching exercises after 1 or 2 reps.

And it's not even new year's yet. Fuck me.

>>35423859

I've noticed a correlation between wearing a cap and not showering at the gym. If you sweat a lot then ball caps aren't practical.

I suspect there's a correlation in terms of gas mileage of the vehicle one drives as well, but that may be a local phenoma.

I'm lucky for having this really old gym in a crappy part of town that most people avoid because of the first impression it makes. Majority of the space is filled with squat racks, benches and bars/dumbbells. It really discourages most pussies

yesterday i saw an old man with a weightlifting belt on the entire time and when he went to do an lmao 1pl8 deadlift, he had an extremely rounded back.

>>35423243
I've read that most running shoes on the market are made to encourage shit running/jogging form with heel strike. So the point is moot. Their trainers aren't helping them either way

>all these posts saying loafers aren't proper gym wear

If you're a farmer how are you posting on 4chan? Check and mate, nice try troll

Newly minted homegym master race reporting in: I will miss that smug satisfaction I have when it's midterm season and gym attendance slowly thins out. Anticipating that feeling is what kept me going through January.

[spoiler]I was an NYR two years ago.[/spoiler]

Go straight to the squat rack and curl.

Fo realz though, I go to a gym that doesn't get any fucking new years faggots, since it's a bodybuilding gym.

am i the only one optimistic about the new year, not really for the crowds but for the fresh batch of cardio bunny cuties i get to try to chat up, i think all the old ones are on to my weak as shit game.

>>35426810
Confirmed for never deadlifts

The reason I love my gym is they just expanded the gym into the warehouse next to it and there going to keep the door that connects to it kinda hidden so only the long time members will really know about it...and they have added:
>7 power racks
>4 York platforms for weight lifting
>3 deadlift platforms for diddys
>4 competition benches
So I think I'll be fine this new years

I'm starting on the second after being a boxer for 5 years.

Will I be bullied?

I promise I'm a good lad

No. Nobody in real life cares about resolutioners as much as people here pretend to. Just don't fuck with people and you'll have a good experience. Good luck mayne.

I only hate resolutioners when they have no fucking idea what they're doing, and are just in the gym to fuck about. If you're in the gym to train, I don't give a fuck.

>>35439358
Thanks bby

>>35439386
I'll be there to train, but my form is probably going to be shit caused by lack of experience.

I'm going to do SS though, so it might be somewhat redeeming.

-talking loudly

-running on two treadmills at once, one for each leg

-aggressively asking to work in with people even when there's another piece of equipment of the same type free

-deadlifting heavy but only with dozens of 2.5lb plates, say it's for depth when confronted

-dumping protein powder directly into drinking fountain, mixing with hands

-sectioning off my own area of the gym with caution tape

-doing medicine ball throws against the mirror
-barbell hammer curls

-taking a really long time to fill up my water bottle at the drinking fountain

-spotting people doing squats without them asking me to

-doing barbell hip thrusts, making eye contact with everyone

-farting

-telling people headphones aren't permitted at the gym, cite safety reasons

-bringing laptop, plugging it in at squat rack, reading emails and browsing Facebook between sets

-doing clean & jerk

-taking bites from a rotisserie chicken between sets, offering others a drumstick

-doing an ordinary workout with cardio and weight training, making polite conversation, cleaning up after myself, and leaving

>>35439427
Well I'm doing SL 5x5, which is a similar routine. I've only been lifting for a year or so, but I had to drop it for a while and I'm getting back into it for good. So if your form is bad, sometimes you'll get the good guys who'll give you a shout, sometimes you have to figure it out yourself. But as long as you are lifting things up and putting them down, you're golden.

>>35428919

Holy SHIT has anyone seen people wearing these oxygen masks at their gym?

Bunch of DYEL faggots came in wearing these while curling 20 pounds and doing god knows what on the smith.

>>35441610
Crossfit gym that I do an 0ly class at has a bunch of people wearing them. It's funny because the gains you get from high altitude are aerobic based, and also only from sleeping in an oxygen thin environment so oxygen masks are only decent if you sleep with them.

Just keep doing your regular workout. Doing free weights with a barbell grants you automatic respect from naive normies doing machines/bodyweight.

Barely breaking ottermode and I already catch people mirin just from doing squats or deadlifts.

I've seen people wearing belts for everything.

>>35423243
I've been struggling with squats for a while, then someone pointed out to me I was having a hard time balancing because I was wearing running shoes, and they have like an inch of cushioning.

Took my shoes off and holy shit, squats were so much easier. I haven't had a hard time with dead lifts though.

Times when hats are acceptable:

Outside in the sun
Outside in the winter

Outside of these circumstances, wearing hat, especially in the gym, makes you look like a total scrub and/or tryhard.

If you're bald, just get a fucking wig or hope you look good with a completely shaved head.

>>35446672
I've see guys wear a belt while using the fly machine.

I don't get it. I don't ever wear a belt because it makes it harder to build core strength when doing DL, but people use them for ever freaking lift, it makes no sense.

I-I think I have a new fetish...

I went yesterday morning and there was already a lot more people than usual. I passed by today and the parking lot was full.

Going to do what I did last year and go super late. Most people going late are the regulars anyways. I don't do cardio on treadmills, and that's usually the busiest shit. In general most new people avoid the squat rack and power cage unless someone else is teaching them.

Unfortunately my school gym is even worse than 24 hr fitness. There's a PL club that lifts in the early morning so I might check them out.
