Screaming at the Gym

Why do you give a shit? If loud noises scare you, go to Planet Fitness

This

Planet Fitness has pizza to soothe your nerves after the scary strong guy deadlifts more than 2 pl8s and activates the lunk alarm.

i dont scream but sometimes i hiss out on my exhale and see a spray of spittle come out of my mouth. this happens pretty much every time i squat or bench and i cannot help it

>>40621026
Or maybe it's obnoxious while I'm trying to work out in peace.
Would you like if someone was grunting at the table next to you at a restaurant?

>Belisa Vranich, a sports psychologist for Gold's Gym Fitness in New York City, believes that for the average workout fan, grunting is probably unnecessary.

>"Some people grunt to give others the impression that [the grunters] are doing a lot of work. It's just like flexing and strutting, trying to attract attention," she told the Orange County Register. "The other reason is a more physical one -- they're not breathing properly. In order to grunt, they have to hold their breath and exhale forcefully."

I scream. Thank fuck I have a home gym with no neighbors. Psychologically it helps me get that last one or two reps in

>Average workout fan

This reminds me of the fake gun expert during the San Bernardino shooting.

Also a gym is not a restaurant. If you are working out in peace you aren't working very hard. Me lifting that extra five pounds is more important than your autism being activated by mildly loud noises.

Ok? So what? I don't make any noise but I also don't give a shit about other people making noise.

There's already shitting pop music playing at deafening volumes, people slamming deadlifts and shit loads of other noise.

You believing that making noise doesn't help doesn't matter, other people will still always make noise if you like it or not. If you can deal with that, leave.

Fuck your shit first world problems.

>being an obnoxious cro magnon
In a fucking place where the only goal is to push metal some way or the other.
Is this for real?

>>40621174
Some of us go to the gym to use the elliptical and stretch

>>40621006
It's acceptable if you are moving real weight. Grunting is acceptable for 1/2/3/4, screaming is only allowed for 2/3/4/5 and above. Even then you might look a cunt desu.

>tfw home gym
>tfw I can make noises like a deaf, autistic sea lion and not bother anyone

>>40621006

I always do sounds when doing abs exercises, i just can't help it

Landmine 180 for examples makes me look like a fucking moron, but if i don't make sounds i lose explosiveness

>they're not breathing properly. In order to grunt, they have to hold their breath and exhale forcefully
>what is valsalva maneuver
>what is lifting anything other than 5lb kettlebells and starbucks iced frappes

>>40621069

Get on my level, i do grunts while doing valsava maneuver

I only grunt/scream when i do 1RM, those faggs who do 15 reps and grunt everytime are annoying af

>>40621026
You mean the screechers pushing low weight and screaming every rep? I can understand when pushing out the last rep or 2(and more of a yell) but every single rep w/ 40lb dumbbells just reminds me of the adam sandler "gay sex or working out" skit. Some times i scream with them to get them to shut up.

I make a low, deep, quiet, and drawn out grunting noise kind of like a triceratops.

I scream...but not when lifting weights or doing any form of exercise for that instance. Mostly happens when I make eye contact with a member of staff.

>Skeleton mode 40-something woman goes "tsssss" AFTER every rep of her 5 pound dumbells

I actually have to go to another part of the gym every time she's there

>>40621060
Same here, it isn't intentional but happens almost exclusively on bench, sometimes on high rep deads or ohp

>>40622020
My nigga in the gym sounding like this??

Lmao

>>40621006
Labored breathing and some grunting sure, but screaming always felt like it would make everything worse.

>>40622173
It does make it worse during rape at least

>>40621006
>doesn't grunt at the gym
Its like you don't even want to make it

I didn't scream when I broke a 5 plate deadlift, it's completely unnecessary and just disrespectful.

Grunting is totally acceptable, besides every wears headphones

IF YOURE NOT THE LOUDEST. YOURE THE SMALLEST

I do sometimes but I go to gym late at night

>worrying about offending other people

B E T A

>>40624870
I agree, at my old gym there was only 1 guy that moaned like he was giving birth. It was a small gym so he prolly didnt care

>valsalva?!?!?!?!?!?!
fr tho 9/10 times a gym will be playing shitty pop and EDM and most of the time you'll have ear/headphones in.

>>40621006
I try not to, but if it comes out, I don't sweat it. What I can't stand though are people who slam the weights on the ground. Yeah, I'll cut you some slack if you're deadlifting 500 lbs but everyone else, have some fucking decency. You look like an attention seeking faggot. If you can't gently set it down, you're not strong enough to be doing that weight in the first place. It's always the stupid crossfitters doing wack shit too. I try to shame those people, has a bout a fifty percent success rate of getting to them to stop (or even quit the gym entirely)

>"Hey buddy, seems like a little too much weight for ya, don't ya think? You'll see more progress if you focus on controlled movement instead of wild jerking and dropping. I made that mistake too when I was a beginner."

Maybe it's the embarrassment, or maybe they're just so creeped out by my tism, but either way, it's better than letting them keep it up

Maybe
