I don't mind those either however in my book if one wants to bring a tripod at the gym and make a youtube video of his workout with live commentary, then that person should try going during quiet times when there is plenty of spaces and little to no people.
This annoying bunch were going at the busiest time and some of the ladies were attention desperate.
I usually mind my business at the gym and I had one of those starting to do dumbbells bent overs in front of my face.
My mrs she looks like a gym bunny so I couldn't care less and moved to another bench.
But this sort of behaviour shouldn't happen in a gym.
Want to video yourself? Fine. Want to desperate force anyone around you to give you attention? Life ban.

yea i get you. fortunatelly i never seen someome with tripd other tham guy that worked at bar in my gym. but he was best lookim guy ive seen there and was prepping for contest. it was okay, he did it when nobody was there.
god i hate these attention whores from deepest part of my soul. im used to it and i dont give them even second of my attention to feed that but god.
ideal gym would be full of guys workin out, banned phones and no loud music. yea i know, impossible.

I agree with everything you wrote minus the phones bit but only because I use YouTube music app for my headphones and at times I might use the note app to either log a session or write some training weights and stuff like that.
I know I could use a pen and a paper notepad but being almost 40 makes me feel too old lol

its so nice to see when someone is still usin pen and paper. friend is makin fun of me cause of that, i have diary with stuff, oldschool pen and paper. i guess im anomaly in todays world, 27yo...

You sold me on the pen and paper though, I'll be 39 this year so from now on I'll think hey if someone at 27 is doing it then I am good to go!
Jokes aside, yes the phone can be distracting as you said read an email or a message, started putting my phone on do not disturb mode while working out so I don't get any distracting notifications anymore.
And I can keep going with music and notes.

hehe im bit weird in this, i dont have pc or internet at home, livin like 20yo and im fine.
sure it could be but its perk for me. i dont have to sit in office until 16:00 and can go to gym at 14:00 and just check email, reply, send text sometimes etc. its nice tradeoff

Then you do you brother.
Definitely a good deal, I'll do those hours when I'll finally be off work and running my small bits and pieces in a few years.
Meanwhile is office hours for me but once I am out of the office then the office can fuck off until 8:50-9:00

i have flexible work time cause i have my own company but it means i need to be available 24/7, if something happens, i need to be ready. Sometimes i get calls in middle of night cause problem. It has pros and cons. Like every type of work.

I saw a couple things on Thursday morning that I’ve been too lazy to post. But I saw something yesterday that I just have to comment on.
I saw a female doing hip thrusts using the leg curl machine. I’m next to her doing leg extensions and trying not to stare. Watching her struggle getting into position was like watching a game of Twister. I bout damn near died laughing.
The second thing was a guy doing lat pull downs except he would only pull down one side of the bar keeping the other arm locked out. I don’t think his lats were getting a workout but he had the movement down perfectly.
And lastly, I was doing dumbbell bicep curls in front of the mirror when I got a whiff of some awful body odor. It was so strong I began to think it was me. After taking a quick sniff of my armpit I realized it was the young guy to my left. He was in a tank and when he laid back to do dumbbell bench presses his body perfume was released. Lol. Of course when he finished his sets he walked away without cleaning the bench. That thing needed a toxic waste caution sign placed on it.

A few funny things I saw in the gym today.
There was a female doing seated dumbbell curls. One hand held her cell phone to her ear while the other arm performed curls. Then she switched arms.
Another was a guy doing seated preacher curls while wearing sunglasses.
And lastly, there is a guy who gets so pumped up by his playlist he breaks out in dance every day I see him in the gym. And white guys can’t dance. It was like his brain disconnected from his body and was having a seizure.

Yeah, love the ones putting major effort in their lifts. "I dont understand...I workout 4 days a week but dont get any better."

I see them all the time. I’m thinking, why even waste your time coming here. You could accomplish the same thing binge watching your favorite tv shows at home.

There is a kid who does a million light inclined bench presses on a Smith bar and then uses that "sit-up" machine, that does nothing but hurt your lower back, like a f'n mad man. Always as noisy as possible. He's dedicated to this regimen. ....time will tell if he's on to the next wave in fitness, I guess
If one rep is good, 3000 is great...at least he's actually hitting it. Better than hot pockets and video games.
