Damn meat heads..

I can't stand the meat heads. Every gym I go to they are there. I love exercise, but I'm not a know it all. They ALWAYS think they have to butt in and tell you how to lift. I've been working out for 5 years, let me be dammit... Like I just wanna workout in peace and listen to my iPod. The gym of all places is the last place I wanna socialize. But thats just me...

What I hate are the steroid hulks who grunt and groan and then clang the f'n weights back on the rack.

The ONLY thing that annoys me is when people drop the weights. One for the loud noise and 2 because it fucks up the weights over time.
These folks think they're helping you though man, just say "thanks" put the ipod back in and go on with the workout.
I have never had anyone I didn't know approach me in the gym other than to say "Will you be on this machine long"

It's usually the people that work there. I'll be getting ready to bench, and they will come spot me. I'll say I don't need a spot, but they insist.
I know they just want to help, but the gym is where I go for my alone time to kill some stress

Maybe you should just go workout at planet fitness then. They have a "lunk" alarm that sirens when 'meathead' people grunt, and the free weights only go up to 65 lb or so. Sounds like the place for you!

Seriously. For less than $100, you could just stay home and work out.
Also, if someone offered to spot my bench, I'd be stoked! You can only push it so far by yourself.

Indeed! I don't mind the aidvice myself. I'd rather not hurt myself in my own ignorance. I can bench quite a bit, so the more weight the more dangerous it can be.

I hear ya about gym time being your alone time kinda like meditation just zone everyone out and get that mind-muscle connection goin. Meatheads come with the territory bro. Why are you so against socialization at the gym, just keep it short no need to get a jaw workout but at the same time you don't have to be anti-social. My advice is to join a planet fitness if one is available near you, not too many meatheads there or here is a even better idea use the smith machine or other machines and people won't be coming up to you asking if you need a spot. But if they consistently keep coming up to you maybe your form is infact off and they're just tryin to help and offer constructive criticism. In any event just keep on doin your thang at the gym don't pay them meatheads no mind.

The gym is not the place to socialize. Sure im a friendly guy, but i prefer not having douchbags step on my toes.
Dont go to the gym to meet girls either, this is a total douche bag move. I've actually met girls at the gym, but they have always come up to me, and i always brought out the line "i dont come here to meet girls."
Sure enough, rejection makes women want u. So they come back later or in a couple days.
These guys that sit on the tread mill and watch the chick with a nice ass for two hours are also douchebags. If shes in yoga pants that require scissors to take off she wants you to look, but dont think that means watching that shit like a star trek marathon.
also, a note to the tough guys- ive knocked out a fair share of body sculpting wana be tough guys. Your muscle definition doesnt mean shit, and i noticed many meat heads are at the gym either: to get laid more (see above), or to compensate for something. Dont start shit with people meat heads, most of you dont have the stuff to fuck with real tough guys.

Yeah I go lift weights as a stress reliever too, but I sometimes get more stressed out when I'm at the gym. I fucking hate it when there is more than one person at a machine or bench and they are socializing with one another and taking 20 fucking minutes to finish one exercise when I'm waiting for them to get done roid rage mannn, roid rageee
