/gym nemesis general/

>>40269726
No one lifts as heavy on compounds as i do at my gym (dont get me wrong im still noob, lifting for 4 months so its far from impressive) BUT:

>Do bent over rows once
>Gym employee (skinny manlet) comes up to me and speaks something
>I understood that he needs me to move a bit(not my native language) to do crossfit lesson with group or some shit
>move 3 steps
>He tells me hes sorry but he needs the bar (i wasnt finished with my shit yet)
>Well whatever, unload and put the bar on floor, notice theres another bar next to wall (standard olympic one)
>Take that and do rows again
>Guy looks at me like stupid

Few days later hes there lifting himself, hes shredded maybe even on slight juice, still looks like total dyel in long sleeves.

>>40269726
I dont have a gim nemesis, should I get one

I just workout alone every time not talking to anyone and listening to music from my headphones

I try to make a passive aggressive angry face or whatever most of the time to keep people at bay. I also wash my gym shirt like once every two weeks so I also smell quite bad I think. Im finnish though so I dont smell like a nigger though.

>>40269777
>giving him the bar

You NEVER show subservience to your gym nemesis. Next you'll be letting him fuck your gf.

>>40269867
Wash your clothes, you stupid faggot.
Fucking freak.

>>40269867
I'm surprised some dyel hasn't tried to make you his nemesis

>>40269726
>that fucker who is at every gym you join and lifts the same weight as you
>join a new gym before him

>join the new gym everyone talks about
>hes in the corner lifting and you lock eyes
>fuuuuu

>gym nemesis
What? Are you guys Saturday morning cartoon characters or something?

There's group of dyel teenagers that stare at me all the time. I think they're trying to scare me or something. Sad cunts!

>>40269881
Nope, I like the odour. Smells like a man. Youd also have to be like 50 cm from me to smell it anyway. If youre that close, you better just back off.

You grew together, then. That's living life on easy mode and I'm envious. When you grow apart, it's less easy. We have fewer things in common every year. I'm only sticking with it for my kid at this point. She deserves two parents in her household more than I deserve happiness.

Bravo, Anon

I'm a DYEL and work out at 7 am when the gym opens.
I couldnt really comprehend it at first but my gym nemesis is a woman.
She is there every morning, lifts more than I do, has a better technique , rests much shorter and her workouts are still as long as mine.
She is a beast and I love-hate her

>>40271090
Too real.

Is this some sort of new meme? Or bait? Or are you just a bunch of melodramatic children, creating a situation out of your own imagination that doesn't exist in real life?

No matter.
Here's what you ALL should be doing:
>Go to the gym
>Do your work
>IGNORE everyone else
>LEAVE when you're done
>Questions? See the above 4 steps, they're ALL you need to know
It's as simple as that. No muss, no fuss, no bullshit, no artificial DRAMA, just DO YOUR WORK then GO HOME. Do you all have lead in your water or something?

A) 7 reps literally does nothing so you're wasting your time
B) 7 reps doesn't fall under strength or hypertrophy and is thus an illegal set under UN decree

tfw I've never ever had a gym nemesis

all of my gymbros are either way stronger or way weaker than me

Not really my personal nemesis but two Instagram whores were filming videos in the gym today. In my entire 90 minute workout they didn't do one single real exercise. They just faked doing stuff and took pictures and videos of each other. The world is in a sorry state.

They were attractive so they probably collected a hundred thousand (You)s for their day's work. One has to wonder though...for what purpose?

Gym nemesis took up the military press for 9 FUCKING SETS the other day. He was taking 5 minutes between sets too, but decent form.

I see him get up and I ask him if it is his last set. Surprisingly he said yes.

I go to unrack the weight on one side, assuming he is going to do the other. He then goes up to some cunt and starts talking for a bit, leaving his towel on the fucking seat. I kick it off and rack my weight up.

"Whoa no reason to throw my towel on the ground buddy, I was just going to be a second"

You aren't alone brother, keep working out, it helps dull the misery.

I've been getting weird vibes from an older guy at my gym. He's in his 50s, still jacked, and covered in tattoos. Quiet, polite, and just focuses on his lifts. Usually he stays silent, but recently he's been critiquing my form on my deadlift and bench press.

Wouldn't really consider him a nemesis, but I definitely don't appreciate being called out in front of other people in the gym like that. To be fair he gives damn good advice.

I like to think of him as Gains Grandpa.

>>40269726
Not really any Nemesis aside from Kids who commented on my weight when i where new to the gym, now they sup on Protein shakes after doing 2 reps of 2kg/5kg. while i'm doing my shit to leave humanity behind.

82% of children of broken homes think their parents shouldn't stay together for the kids
https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2015/nov/22/children-divorce-resolution-survey-rather-parents-separate

Staying together for the child makes the child guilty for both your misery (or at least makes it feel like that)
https://www.amazon.com/Truth-About-Children-Divorce-Emotions/dp/0452287162/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1094071308&sr=8-1

If the only reason for the marriage is the (wrongful) assumptions of negative effects on the child, it's a bad marriage and it should be dissolved.

>>40273218
No I don't. The only thing I have to outlift is my PR

>>40273264
If you have to outlift people to feel better than them to keep training, you're not gonna make it. Not just in the gym, you won't make it anywhere

>>40283870
Children of broken homes later rationalized their parents breaking up by saying it was a good thing?

Okay

Children who live in a society where people push divorce for any reason and for some reason actually feel guilt for their parents sticking together for their sake say that divorce is a good thing

>Parents who live in society where people stay together for social pressure and wrong ideas about divorce and children is a good thing
>Both of the aforementioned groups have a 0% chance of raising broken children?

Societies with fewer broken homes have few broken children.

It really is just them using "THINK OF THE CHILDREN" justifications for them being shitty people who aren't mature enough to grow into the roles that they decided to take up when getting married in the first place.

>>40283667
My dad left when I was 10, cutting contact to near zero and it really set me back a ways. I started to get fat after that, but I honestly don't think it had anything to do with him. Maybe it was a result of the lack of a male authority figure and maybe it was because my mom felt bad for getting a divorce but she would buy me almost everything I asked for and always cook me giant fattening meals. She totally spoiled me and it allowed me to turn into a fat cave lizard, playing world of warcraft and barking at my mom for more home made stuffed french toast whenever I felt bored.

Now I live on my own and still play video games all day long and never get out of the house, before I hit adolescence I was outside skateboarding and running around getting in adventures. Partly due to my teenage angst and partly due to my teenage sloth I would end up turning down every event I was invited to, after a while I never got invited anymore and I haven't since.

I'm convinced that a child cannot be raised well by just one parent
