Stupid shit you see at the gym.

Roidbro doing a drop set of lat raises. Started with the 55's and threw his whole body into it to move them 2 inches. Continued to do so until he got to the 20's, still threw his whole body into it.

He could literally be sitting around and do nothing and gain more lean mass than you lmfao

>>42668748
he looks like shit, typical roided gymrat douche who doesn't even squat or deadlift

I'll give it to this guy that he was pretty strong and he looked more muscular than me...
here was his standard routine though

10 sets of this
>bench 1rep at 315 while screaming and yelling
>no rest cable curls 3 reps @ maxed weight of 250ish but probably closer to 125 actual because its a pulley
>struggle to stand up with the 75lbs DBs and do a crazy swinging 3 rep curl and drop the weights and yell
>sit for 5 minutes and then repeat
After his 10 sets of this shit
>leg extensions superset bounce half rep shit with you guessed it, maxed for the machine about 250ish

What pissed me off the most is how he struggles to stand while holding 150lbs worth of DBs but can bench 315. I never saw him ever do any other exercise ever and was always screaming and yelling to get as much attention as possible

me in the mirror

>>42668770

>>42668961
>all steroid use will have the exact same consequences

>>42668965
How does that invalidate the fact that he's still lifting and you're mad that he looks better than you? If you're so salty then just take steroids and sit on your ass.

>>42668932

Right, because steroid users don't routinely die young or anything.

>>42668993
People who abuse drugs die. This is literally nothing new. There are far fewer deaths for moderate steroid use ban you seem to think.

>>42668965
Yeah I hate it when roidmonkeys talk about progress like it has anything to do with actual dedication and hard work and not literally a dose-dependent reaction to the drugs. They can literally sit on their ass all day and gain muscle by just upping the dose.

>>42668847
He screams cause that's how a Chad attracts pussy (among other ways)
He struggles with standing up, cause big legs are unaesthetic, and aesthetics is his goal, so he probably doesn't do anything heavier than 1pl8 squats for something like 4x8 reps.
You sound jelly as fuck cause he looks better and doesn't do half the exercises that you were cucked into doing cause zomg functional strength.

This fucking monkey-looking African (not African American this dude was one of the purple straight out of the jungle types) was fucking around on the pull-up bar thats included with those cable machines, im sure you know what I mean.

So this ape motherfucker would do a pull-up, hold it at the top position and then do a backflip while holding on to the bar. After this he would drop down, do a push up and then while having both his hands on the ground kick both his legs up and try his darndest to hold his two legs in the air.

It wouldnt of bothered me but this monkey piece of shit was this in the middle of a crowded gym with a high demand piece of equipment doing his stupid calisthenics routine

>>42668653

>>42668978
seemed liked a good way to destroy your tendons, or I was thinking it was an advanced powerlifting type program and maybe I never saw his other workouts or something.. dude was a jackass to say the least and his gf was fat as fuck

>>42668671
But the most muscle breakdown is done on the eccentric portion of the lift, overloading with weight and focusing on the negative isn't a bad thing

>>42669045

There was no negative to speak for any of his reps, anon. Also [citation needed]

>>42668653
..yeah, that's pretty fucking retarded. Only a 6 year old would be impressed, because they think becuase the bar is longer it's heavier.

>>42668712

You stupid? It will build more mass in your delts if you use a lot of weight and try your best to slow down on the eccentric. Won't matter if you use your whole body to get it up, as long as the eccentric is slow. This is pretty common knowledge.

I actually have to shoo them away like a flock of shitting pigeons i hate them but now they are making complaints against me saying im (harassing them), the manager backs me up tho

Today some guy at the gym filled the leg press with most of the 45s and was doing some nice knee extensions.

>>42671782
You're fucking retarded. The delts can't handle a lot of weight and if you go too heavy you're basically using momentum plus every other possible muscle to lift the weight. ISOLATION exercises should ISOLATE the fucking muscle, dipshit (also TUT is far more important)

This morning, I saw a couple in the power cage next to mine. They were using 40 lbs fixed barbells to do this weird cross between a bent over row and an upright row. One stood in the cage, one stood just outside it, doing the weird row. The cage's barbell just sat neglected in the rack.

No.

Look up statistics on emergency room visits and otherwise unexplained deaths before assuming stupid stuff. Almost always deaths attributed to AAS are abusing recreational drugs, diuretics, clen etc, insulin. At the very least they are doing cycles of abusive doses or running too long.

Benefit to risk ratio of most AAS (oils especially) are very good

Old man in my gym takes probably 15x 25lb pl8s for each side of a hammer strength "machine". Basically like a bent over row. Only 5 fit on each side so he gets this ridiculous straps you use to secure heavy equipment on semis and shit and straps the other 10 to each side

Then he basically slightly bends his arms and does a 1" back extension. Idk what he thinks he's accomplishing but the most prime epitome of ego .

Same guy 1rm bench is about lmao2pl8. He will load up to 4pl8, take off rack, hold 2 sec, then put back on rack. Heard him explaining once "to get body used to heavy weight"... sure bro I guess but if you already have to use that shit to break 2pl8 you got bigger problems.

its a 1rm max lift and hes in fuckin high school getting amped with his bros. the form is pretty horrible and im not advocating for that stuff, but actively looking down on and shitting on this just shows how you should just worry about yourself instead of caring what other people do.

ive been going to public gyms for 10 years and reading threads like this is why i sometimes get intense anxiety about some fucking asshole and his friends making fun of me because im doing something they think is stupid.

i literally watched a guy doing perfect starting strength style squats, guy was a beginner obviously and doing a pretty good job, and a bunch of other dudes and his buddies were making fun of him and snickering. talked to the dude and he was the nicest guy ever yet you have assholes who dont know fuck all about training making fun of him.

i agree there are some dumb things done at the gym but the fact you guys actually take pics of this shit or find it out to make fun of is more pathetic. every time i see this shit, someone being made fun of at the gym, i just lose a little hope for humanity. its supposed to be a place of positivity and improvement, and welcoming. if you see someone doing something supremely dumb its none of your business, if you intend to make it so, at least give them constructive friendly advice. but really you should focus on yourself. it just shows how weak you are and how big your ego is that you think making fun of people is acceptable.

same thing with steroid use,. its none of your business and they arent fucking affecting you. i could give two shits if i see a bigger guy on gear who is doing less weight than me, im not in a competition to see whose the biggest badass so why should i fuckin care?

you guys make me sad anons.

nah It's not dangerous. Gymnasts do similar kind of exercises to prevent injury. Those are not supposed to be heavy. The idea is to prepare the body for when that shit inevitably happens during training. Of course people who only lift weights don't do skills like tumbling that requires them to have strong knees in terms of torsion. Seriously if more soccer players did Inside squats and Twisting Squats, there would be next to none ACL torn in football.

This is the same myth like people saying you shouldn't lift heavy things with an arched back. In reality you can go pretty heavy, although not as heavy as you can deadlift

hey I prick my ass a few times a week and I feel insulted

>>42684043
you are dumb as fuck. this girl trains at supertraining with mark bell and them. if you think the lateral lunge is bad for your knees you better email eric cressey and let him know. you guys are such know it alls. just because your pathetic knees cant handle a simple body weight movement doesnt mean hers cant. when you are training martial arts of various forms there are plenty of movements where you get into somewhat compromised positions. its not like you are loading up with tons of weight. not everything in life will allow you perfect form. if you cant train semi compromised positions or refuse to you are at a severe disadvantage.

fuck you guys really activate my almonds.


>>42683982
self righteous autists who think that they are experts in the entire fitness field and everyone must follow exact form like them. its ironic that guys that complain about chad and being loser outsiders take the same kind of egoistic attitude when judging others.


>>42684145
why? really? why?

i can only imagine how much you guys would hate me. ive been rehabbing an injury for ages, i dont look injured but im in tons of pain. i do stuff like hold onto the handles of the treadmill, i use baby pink weights, i do lunges and stuff. you guys are just assholes. makes me want to never go to a public gym again.

>>42684430
they are an extremely succesful business and if you think your self righteous indignation at a bunch of people just wanting to do some healthy activity in a no judgement zone is offensive to your sensibilities, you need to grow the fuck up and realize not everyone shares the same goals as you.

its like that video of callum making fun of a guy at the gym doing these ab bicycle exercises. the guy is a world class known bodybuilder but even he is an egoistic asshole who judges and makes fun of people.

let people do whatever the fuck they want. if you actually are triggered by this stuff you are basically a special snowflake. i used to fuckin be like you people, i cringe at the way i looked down at people not doing perfect exercises. god. it actually hurts to remember.

>happy guy with his smiling baby actually triggers 4chan autists

you guys are poison. just a cesspool of negativity and bullshit. i cant relate to any of you guys anymore

>>42684475
forget the fat guy, i feel this way about in shape guys that wear stringers to the gym so everyone can see their exposed bodies and their skin touches every surface area they use.

>>42689697
dont bother tryin to educate these judgemental pricks
they actually think they are more knowledgable and experienced than jen

she literally does band pulls and dynamic squat with mark bell

while these autists cry into their keyboards about shit that triggers them

just a cesspool of negativity

>>42689694
>positivity
>welcoming
>constructing friendly advice
oi wanker, world aint flowers and rainbow. If they cant take little banter, little verbal beating they sure dont belong in there

>>42689769
same here, then one day i saw a candito video and he explained how looking down on people is just as retarded of whatever retarded thing you think they're doing.

pretty common at my gym too

>>42683051

no they don't, you're just retarded.

at most, they might help train forearms to stabilize, but you can just replace the barbell with a dumbell of equal weight and not make someone who knows how to use a barbell wait for your stupid ass.

>>42689856
exactly, and add that to the fact that what you think is true today doesn't necessarily stand up to new or further knowledge. there's plenty of stuff i thought was stupid but then i learned from more educated people than me that they have a use. if you look down on people and shit on them for doing something different, all it shows is that, apart from being a prick, you are not very willing to accept the fact that you are always able to learn new information.

i get that using a barbell to do lateral raises or a flye looks kind of odd. it takes up a lot of space and you are doing something not alot of people do. but it is a strength movement that promotes stability because of the length of the barbell. knowledgeable trainers promote stability movements for prehab and recovery, so why the fuck shouldnt someone use a barbell for a lateral raise? it builds strength and coordination, isnt that the WHOLE FUCKING POINT of going to a gym? there isnt a rulebook that says you must do these movements.

Get the fuck over yourselves, everyone.

>>42689862
you're an idiot. you have no idea that they were taking up a barbell that someone wanted to use in the posted pics. you also must be dog shit retarded if you don't think using a barbell trains stabilization muscles and its just a different way of adding an exercise stressor.

even if i had to wait for a barbell because someone was doing this, at most id be slightly annoyed for a few minutes but i wouldnt tell them and i wouldnt take a pic of them to go home and shit on them on a mongolian basket weaving forum.

you have no right to think you have some authority over people in a public gym. unless you actually own the equipment and the facility, you can piss right off.

it blows my mind you guys think you are the arbiters of correctness.

every time i come here i regret it

>>42689748
>why? really? why?
Because it reduces the work you're doing and messes with your form and probably other reasons too.
If you need to hold on to the handles, you're going too fast for your capability.
If you're rehabbing an injury it might be different idk, but it still sounds ill advised - maybe the elliptical would be better for you.

>>42689922
maybe you should forget about someone walking on the treadmill holding the handles and the myriad of reasons why they might be doing it, and if these reasons may or may not meet your standards for acceptability, and just focus on yourself?

you fuckin twat. who the fuck do you think you are? it pains me to think that every time i go to the gym there are people there who might be deciding if what im doing is acceptable and meets their standards of what is ok to do at the gym

FOCUS ON YOURSELF.

Maybe you could focus on yourself instead of trying to police other peoples private thoughts

>>42689898
Well all these variations to movements are:
1, not needed
2,probably dangerous
Whenever i see people doing some meme shit like rack pulls above the fucking knee, dumb zercher lifts (except squats) ,some meme jumping etc i cringe.
However one thing in determining if what someone is doing is legit is to simply ask them about the purpose that thing.
90% of people will not answer without any thought.And you know that they are doing that to look cool, unusual or because theyve become memed.
I certainly agree there are some unusual stuff that work, especially for the back.
But if one did couple more rows instead of RackPullsABoveTheKnee, or if one did one more set of db raises instead of bb raises or if one simply did hip thrusts with weight instead of rotatingoneleggedhipthrustonbosu results would be
1,probably better
2,safely achieved
3,less obnoxious
get hold of yourself liberal, there must be order to things. There is safe way to lift and dumb way to lift.

>>42689860
i'm more worried about the plumbers gorge going on right next to him

>>42689983
the ironic thing about you thinking rack pulls above the knee are stupid is that there is a guy at the gym i go to who, when i thought like you guys, looking down and shitting on people, i thought he was just another dumb twat who doesnt know anything. he does heavy ass rack pulls and is always grunting and screaming.

then i walk in one day and see him doing 315lb bent over rows with great form. id say the dude can do whatever the fuck he wants as long as he keeps building strength and not hurting himself.

maybe people do zercher lifts and box jumps because they think they are fun? or because they just want to do them?

why the fuck do you wrap your cock in a soft lambskin pull rug every night and jerk off to the thought of your moms lactating breasts?

>>42689862
>and not make someone who knows how to use a barbell wait for your stupid ass.

your gym doesn't have enough barbells for everyone?

We literally had 5 barbells lying around, hence me betting a year's supply of chalk on barbel flyes being doable for reps.

Now I have a year's worth of black diamond's white gold chalk and have done barbell flyes for 4x8.

>>42690018
they are stupid because you are destroying equipments, hogging plates and making yourself prone to injury for miniscule trap gains

just doing something bc ,,its fun", ,, i like to do it when it does not have any higher purpose , people were not coached in it and dont have proper form in it is dumb
badly executed box jumps can destroy your knees
badly executed zercher lifts will murder your lower back
and like i said 90% of the people dont know what are doing and why are they doing it.
