On a deadlift day not to long ago I was doing deadlifts, in my usual corner minding my own business, Now About 4 ft behind me is a t bar machine, Lil close but not to bad. However I don't like anything or anyone any closer than that near me. Now this idiotic guy comes behind me in the 4ft of space puts the square bar down with soem 45s on it to do some shrugs( the one you step in) Now i was on my 3 set, and he knew i was over there using that mirror, and that space, knowing ther eare other places he can do that, but he picks my space! Not to mention, he was doing his sets when I was doing mine. Then when he got done, he would walk right by me, as i had 375lbs off the ground, buzz by the weights I'm holding in my hand to grab a 10lb weight. And I had to stop what I was doing and hold the weight there fighting gravity so I won't break this guys foot. ALthough I was really tempted to do it to prove a point but I was good natured like I am and didn't.
Then just yesterday, I was doing over head cleans( floor to extension) And I went to my squat rack in the cornor( i Load the plats on it on the rack and pull it off, then set it back after my set)And I warmed up witht he bar as usual, and put a 45 on each end and clipped it ready for my next set. But 1st I wanted water. So as i'm walking away, a beefcake wannabe came up and was like " eh man you done with that rack" I wanted to say, " yea thats why I added weight to the bar, so it won't roll off" But i said" no that I just got over there, and i'd be there for at least 4 sets. Then he asked" well what ya doing?" I said" cleans" He gave me a weird look like what the hell is that and walked away. So I go back to my corner to do my thing,and i do like one set, then go get water, and th eguy comes over yet again asking me if i was done.....and gain i said no this is only my 2nd set. He sits down, next to the rack, as if to say would you hurry up! I thought this was really rude my self, so I was getting tired anyways, so I let him have the rack, thinking he was gonna do somthing like squats( he needed too) what does he do? Uses the bar to do some up right rows! Just the bar!..........he can't pick a bar off the floor and do them, he has to have a rack? Lord knows thats alot of weight.........sorry just wanted to vent
hers something else funny, the rec center(part of mtsu) it has a cardio area, weight room, rock climbing wall , b ball courts,racket ball..........has a rule......You can't bring water bottles in the weight room or cardio area........is it just me or is this F'd up?????I'm a real man I sweat!
