There are like 3-4 different types of barbells in the gym and there is only 2-3 barbells of the correct type (20kg and proper girth) and it pisses me the fuck off when I come in for my Smolov bench routine on chest day and they're all taken by either skwatting skellys or some meme routine women
all the other barbells are literally for bitch hands or betas

people always come up to me and telling me theyre using the equipment im using. fuck off normies

It's full of dudebro chad dickheads and stacy sluts. the music is always shit too. too many machines, not enough treadmills. rather expensive. aesthetics and competitive bodybuilding fagwads everywhere. the owner of the gym is a bit of a dick too.

Is it normal for people to do leg presses on the chin-up/dip assist?
I don't know if I care.
It still peeves me. It's a kneepad, not something to shove your dirty shoes all over. Go find an actual leg press machine you cunt.

The girls who I can't tell if they're checking me out or not

>PF meme

Is it corporate policy to only ever have 4 stairclimbers? Is it corporate policy that two of them always seem to be shit?
Anchorage, AK to Marietta, GA. Same thing.

Was squatting yesterday doing my warmups and somebody was taking 45's off my rack and putting them on the leg press. After my set was done I walked over and grabbed them in front of him and put them on my bar and continued to squat. The guy came over to me and said he was using those and only had one set left. I pussied out and let him have the plates back and went to grab some other 45's from somewhere else in the gym.

I tried so hard to be an alpha but ended being a bitch. What should I have done?

the douche immigrants that come in groups of 6, wear snapbacks, and lift shit weight for 30 mins

then never re-rack like children who can't put away their things

you did the right thing. Dont come to the gym to fight people, just workout and leave. He probably took it by accident or something, if he does it again thats when you say something to him. You did the right thing

>>42311312
Told him "Hey, I was using those already" and then take them. when he retaliates point out where he could get more plates

If he continues then call the management. I'm also an uppity person but thats my take

those guys who walk around the gym with the gym bag.

I hate people who dont rerack. Theres never a set of 2 dumbells anywhere. You also have to go play fucking where waldo with weights. This is at 24 hour fitness btw

People who lift with shit form and think they're stronger than they are.

Fat people who are on a perma bulk

And also, people who think bulking means gain weight by eating whatever you want and as long as your lifts go up, no matter how subtly, it makes you a bodybuilder.

I want to strangle whoever thought it was a good idea to embed 40" TVs in the mirror walls instead of mounting a proper bracket ABOVE the mirrors.
Those 2 girls who bring books to read on the fucking stationary bikes should be banned from the gym.

The "open area for stretching" is smaller than my bathroom, and there are always 5 people lined up doing shit in it. I know for a fact that I will just snap at somebody hogging the area, so I don't ask for a spot. I do bodyweight stuff at home because of this.
How the FUCK do you run out of towels when it's summer and a shitload of people are out of town?

They are content with mediocrity and it disgusts me.

I started going to the school gym 3 months ago. I went there because 9/10 I was alone or there's on other person. Now, there's a bunch of fuccbois going every morning, doing curls as their first exercises, a couple of sit-ups then bring all their other friends to talk and shit around. I fucking hate them, I know they'll leave after a couple of weeks with nothing to show, so why the fuck are they even working out in the first place.

I don't know, at the very least get into meditation (very beneficial even if you're not religious, makes you feel more "connected to reality" if that makes sense).
Try getting into entry-level philosophy, like existential stuff. You won't agree with all of it, but I found that it opened my mind to a lot of alternative worldviews. Camus, Sartre, Dostoevsky (if you like literature instead of essays) were all concerned with how to live a meaningful life, the first two being irreligious.

People are absolutely obsessed with documenting every second of their day on Snapchat, I didn't believe how bad it was until I tried dating a few normie girls from tinder. The first thing they do is take a picture of you and post it to advertise who they're going on a first date with. Then you catch them snapping pictures of random shit or themselves when you're trying to talk to them, and realize they haven't been listening to a word you said.
Something about it really disturbs me on a base level.

>>42312948
I would say there are two levels of mad for men in the South. The first is the "you must not be from around here" level where you tell them what they did wrong and to please knock it off. Common phrases for this level are "Were you raised in a barn, boy?" or "Didn't your mother teach you better?" The second level is the "I already dun told you" level. You typically have to pass through level one to get here, but serious infractions (insulting a spouse or mother, deliberate damage of property, spitting, etc.) can go straight there. This is usually just yelling, but will come to blows if the offense is grave enough as in many cases where level one is skipped.
It sounds like your guy was either a weirdo or a carpet bagger, my man. No one should stew over something like that especially if you apologized.

We have a cute little girls only section behind some a glass door and some glass panels.

Pretty funny because all the kindly women folk do their leg lifts or whatever women do at the gym and all these disgusting looking sweaty men oggle them through the glass like some perverted zoo exhibit.


God I love my gym.

>>42312772
Dud, I agree with that, I mean i also agree with what >>42312833 , but everyy girl that I know who is going to the gym is either doing legs and ass... Nothing else, it would be alright, if you do the other parts of the body but mainly focus on ass and lega, but ONLY those two... This kind of show how shallow women's can be "look at my ass, i know you want it".

Personal trainers that "teach" their clients how to "squat" and then have them do quarter squats.

The fact that women have their own section that has pretty much everything except barbells.

I just want to ogle ass every now and then, okay? Gosh.

My gym has an speakers that gym-goers can plug their phones/mp3s into.

Honestly, I just wish people would stop playing the same old shitty music. It's always Eminem, Linkin Park, System of a Down, Rage Against the Machine, and other shitty pop-rap/nu-metal.

I'm almost tempted to bring my own phone and play a proper metal album like Annihilation of the Wicked.

Holy shit, I have yet to leave for the gym and I'm already pissed off. Women lifting ridiculously light dumbbells might be one of the most annoying things to see. Never do you see them actually exerting themselves, having to clench their teeth and power through the last rep. They're ALWAYS just doing a movement with a complete lack of intensity, as if just moving your arm up and down will magically make it "toned" because there happens to be a piece of metal in your hand.

>>42311058

Why the fuck are there so many nonsense machines and only 2 racks? Seriously 6 fucking ab machines that no one ever uses that are exactly the same.
Why do people deadlift in front of the fucking racks when there are 2 other areas with bars where you can practically only deadlift?
Why do people think they can take a bench and go over to the other side of the gym to do another exercise for 5 minutes in between every set? They just leave a towel on it like that makes it okay.
Why do people do infinite sets of baby weight in the racks? If you are doing 10 sets of squats maybe it's time to lift more than 75 lbs. you fucking degenerate. Also if you can do 10 sets of the weight without breaking a sweat you don't need a cage, you could be doing that shit anywhere.

Half reppers and arched backs

Also people who don't re-rack their weights and don't re-rack their weights properly. No, you fucking moron, you don't put the 2.5's on the same row as the 5's. They go on different rows so I don't have to grab two handsbreadth of plates every time I want a 5 you fucking moron.

the girl who thinks she's a fucking Olympian snatching >0.5 plate and slams it into the ground with her full might, and then stretches for 20 minutes in an unsuitable area of the gym.

any kind of software engineering/data analysis job at a lucrative company can get you this salary starting

There's tons of self-education tools online if you can't afford college. Just work a min-wage job to take shit on coursera and bang out a bunch of certificates, do independent projects and build a portfolio (you'll get these from your assignments as well), and then just apply to every major company you can. Also this mostly works if you live near a coastal city (assuming US) or are willing to move to one. Tech is not in bumfuck nowhere Oklahoma for a number of good reasons.

I read this piece and at one point she wrote "there are no perks to being a girl".

What fucking bothers me is that she is objectively wrong, yet her shit gets lauded and published and spread because she is a "good" writer. I hate it, I hate hate hate HATE it. I get so fucking triggered when someone in power (relatively) propagates something so openly wrong, yet gets no negative feedback or flack for saying something that is so wrong it could be harmful, or even worse, it could be brainwashing.

This except 3 pegs and 5 weights. I put the 2.5s, 5s, and 10s on the same peg and give the 25s and 45s their own pegs. Sometimes I put the 10s on the 25 peg. It's usually just chaos, so at least I bring some order.

This. 35 lb plates should be banned. They just fuck up everything and it only takes a 2 plate combination (25+10) to make 35. Doesn't explain how one side of a rack will have 6 5's and the other side 0, though.

Shit sucks brahs. Just eating chicken and/or fish every day and feeling immensely guilty whenever I eat something else - doesn't have to be bad food, it's just the knowledge that what I'm about to do will lead to an increase in my disgusting belly fat.

a lot of people genuinely believe they are celebrities now due to social media. I read about this in an old psychology textbook, it's a phenomenon that occurs in any large society, and the internet is the biggest "society" yet. the issue is only a very small percentage of society can actually be famous so what you get is a lot of schizoid people that avoid facing the real world and surround themselves with only what is consistent with their worldview so their ego doesn't break down. This is why you see so many social media women with that same blank, lifeless face all the time, it is a symptom of their dissociated schizoid state.

part of it is how good you are, but most of it is just how you present yourself. there's this idea that HR sort of people are incapable of judging candidates, so most people running interviews are autist programmers just trying to tell if you are "one of them" ("hacker ethos", "passion", etc) and don't have the social skills to tell who's bullshitting them. so if you're the real deal it's easy, if you're not but a good actor it's doable. most of the people working at these companies are either legitimately very good or retards who play the part well

there is definitely no middle ground though, you're either working at a SV-style software company making $$$, or you're doing enterprise or you're working at a non-software company making shit
