It takes all types of people to make this world and definitely all types of people to make up your gym.
Today we gonna go through a few of those "PERSONALITIES". Can you relate to any of them, have you seen them around, or are you one of them.
Sometimes, when a person sets foot inside the gym, they turn into a whole other person. If you've been to pretty much any gym in the world, you are sure to recognize the people you're about to read about...
1. Smell Me Madge, I Soaked In It.
You can detect this person coming before they even set foot inside the door of the gym. Little tip: it's fine to wear a little perfume or cologne to the gym but don't soak your clothes in it. Have a shower instead.
2. Obsessive Compulsive Rep Counter
Like a meditation mantra, the numbers get counted until the specific magic number has been reached. To really have some fun, stand behind this person as they do their set and start saying random numbers out loud as they count.
3. Leisure Suit Larry In Gym Shorts
Looking for love in all the wrong places. Often a colgne-soaker and always on the prowl, even constant and harsh rejection from every single female he encounters (including the potted plants) doesn't seem to slow Larry down.
4. Don't Make Me Lift That Heavy Thing
If you've ever watched someone monopolize the 2-pound neoprene dumbells for 20 minutes, you've seen this person in action. Fear of developing massive, icky-looking, veiny muscles from even looking at anything heavier than a Rice Krispie Treat keeps this person away from the weights that actually have numbers written on them. I've seen a person like this straining with a novelty dumbell pen.
5. You Don't Need A Jack For That Car Now That I'm Here
Cinch that weight belt up until you look like a big red Pop 'n Fresh doughboy in a corset, it's time to do 3 inch, hunched-over, bowl-legged, shaky-leg squats! There's something to be said for lifting within your means (and for not cinching your weight belt up so tight that you c--p yourself during a set).
6. Where's The Ashtray For This Treadmill?
You can always spot the person who's at the gym against their will and under doctors orders. They are doing as little as possible as slowly as possible and are always looking for somebody to work in with them so that they can stop.
7. The Bouncy Bench Press Crew
Young males travelling in packs of 3 or more, hogging the bench press for uncounted sets of trampoline-like reps with far too much weight while their training partners yell "it's all you" as though it really is. I hear the concave chest look is "in" this year...
8. Please Don't Wear That
Some people simply should NOT wear spandex and I can't figure out why they do. I'll leave it at that.
9. The Brick Wall
No matter how much anybody tells this person that the exercise they're doing is going to shatter their spine, they continue to pig-headedly do it anyway because their 9th grade gym teacher taught it to them 26 years ago.
10. The Beast
You'll often see this person banging their head against the concrete wall to psych themselves up for a set because "drywall is just too soft."
11. The Mountain Man
Apparently, he just walked in from taking down some trees in the backcountry and didn't have time to change out of his dirty sweatpants, flannel shirt and work boots before heading to the gym.
12. The Gym Bunny
If you're not in the gym for a serious workout, but to set the stair machine on 1 and try desperately hard not to sweat and mess up your precious hair and makeup, hop yourself out the door. Leisure Suit Larry is hanging out in the parking lot waiting someone... ANYONE.
So have you recognised any?? Or are you one of these unique people???
Stay tuned for more "GYM PERSONALITIES" .
Have a great weekend fitness freaks!!!
