Strength Irritating people/things that annoy you in the gym III

[Glorfindel]

Not irritating, but was at the local community gym this morning and some guy was on the Airdyne (or whatever brand equivalent) and his facial expressions gave the impression he was on horseback charging across the Pelennor Fields to come to the aid of Gondor.
Far enough, except he’d start making that face before he actually started pedalling
There was also another bloke doing standing wrist curls with 2kg which was a bit odd (they were “jerking off” tempo). Would love to know his thought process behind doing them.

I went to wash my hands at the sink in the Men bathroom after my workout, a guy was flossing his teeth.

I could see food scraps fly out of his mouth.

"Jerking off tempo", that's quite the phrase and explains the scenario very well ha ha

I'm so glad my gym has completely private bathrooms- all in one.

One gym even has dry change rooms which are the best.

I felt the need to put a qualifier in there as generally speaking I have nothing against wrist curls haha (apart from a limited number of circumstances where the effort vs reward is there).

Isnt it more in the hand than the wrist?

They’re the muscles (or more accurately tendon) implicated in “tennis elbow” & “golfer’s elbow” respectively.

Trainer on Saturday was holding a pool noodle for some reason. I found out why because I got whipped with it when I was doing my medicine ball squats incorrectly ha ha

A Carlton supporter dropped into the work tipping teams chat "at least the first game is an easy pick".

Copped an absolute belting the next day.

People come and go from gyms of course but one girl had been missing a while. I found out she was doing medicine ball drills with a bloke, where you're both doing squats and pass the ball to each other.

The bloke threw it at her face, went through her hands and hit her in the face! Said bloke reckons she needs to learn to catch!

Said bloke is quite annoying, always full of tips and advice that no one asked for.

It's starting to become cooler in the mornings now. When shall we expect to see patronage drop off?

I did chuckle but was she okay?

There's a bloke at our gym who "hibernates", regular outside of winter but you don't see him when it's cold.

I don't know, one of the other blokes told me in the car park after class Monday so I haven't asked anyone else yet. But yeah they mainly have the hard medicine balls so it wouldn't have tickled.

Went back to the gym after 10 days Holiday. Power gone. Felt like shit. I have ruined it all

Yep. I'm sick with a cold atm.

Idk when I'll go back, I'd say Monday at the earliest

 

[Shell]

I'm actually deadset chomping at the bit to tell ANYONE to get ****ed right now.. I'm in a mood..

No. Because I'm not a ****ing soft ****, unlike others
