Sorry people aren't toughing their way through Type 1 diabetes with mental strength..

The patients I deal with aren't type 1...their diabetes is directly tied to weight, lifestyle and diet which they are unwilling to change. They arent victims of genetics.

Well, now that there are meds, people can take those meds while working on their lifestyles. Meds and lifestyle have epigenetic consequences. I don't get the renting of garments if there are meds that can appropriately handle a condition. Obesity pushes many things. Control obesity and many things usually fall back in line. No one would be pissed for example if we were medicating our way past CTE while continuing to Box or compete at UFC for example..

Guys who swing their entire bodies for barbell curl. I try not to judge but the way they move the bodies is just damn funny.

Yeah, that one seems to be around a lot Swing the weight and actually curl it maybe 6 inches...then pose in the mirror when done.

Borderline range inducing but harmless... The skinny high schoolers and 20 somethings with their practically inverted muscles flexing in the mirror and metaphorically sucking themselves off while on tic tok. These are a norm now at my gym. At least they are working out I suppose... but their workouts are so pathetic, my 135lb wife would destroy them with ease.

We have a few 30s to 50s middle eastern men at my gym with zero muscle mass who do practically nothing but forearm curls with a 30-40lb barbell and then go walk or swim... Its just the middle eastern ones and Afghani's. Not sure why. Some cultural thing with jerking off perhaps?

I fucking HATE... HATE those fuckers who occupy a smith machine for an entire hour to do a full body workout... like there are only 1 or 2 in my gyms. No cutesy at all.

The bench press bouncers. Those guys who drop the 225lbs on their chest and bounce it up for 3 reps. Then then jump up and flex in triumph like they leveled up or something.

The 45 degree leg press sissy men. I mean why even use a free weight machine? I know why... they dont want to look like pussies using the "girly" machines. They want to look masculine. They are usually middle age men and use 2-3 plates (about 325lbs-415lb) while I roll my eyes waiting for them to finish. My 10 year old works out with 2 plates for fucks sake and he is usually half assing it. I dont let him use more yet.

The basketball court assholes... court is reserved for games and yet they just have to shoot around and intefere with every game. Lost count of how many Ive seen removed by workers. Like... read the fucking signs on the door.

Last, the old ass fat men who do nothing but use the hot tub while staring hard at every woman on a treadmill or stair climber. Creepy ass motherfuckers. Some are totally shameless and will even film women with their phones with a grin on their face. My wife caught a couple of them this year alone.

Man, you hit it on the head! I see most of those guys in one way shape or form..,and those last guys are weird. Wait, I may be one of those last guys! Nah. We dont have a hot tub at the gym.

Your gym sounds a lot bigger than mine

If one had a hot tub overlooking a treadmill area what else would one do when in said hot tub?
Just thinking about it. What else is there to stare at? Dudes on the treadmill? Dudes Squatting? Other dudes lifting? Staring at the other guys in the tub?

Besides, it's not as if people don't stare at chicks with perfectly toned bodies during 'rests'.

Staring is creepy. You’re the creepy guy.

Not funny per se, but actually quite gross imo. Where I live, there has been a large influx of the Tesla driver ethnic group. The smell that emits from these humans when sweating is rancid. Yeah, yeah...miss me with all that "it's their culture" talk. My nostrils have been accosted by these odors too many times.

The curry fury? It's absolutely brutal where I am too bud.

Stop staring you dirty old men. She is wearing this for HERSELF!

Don't give a rats arse... People are free to excuse themselves from other people's gaze. When I was 350lbs people would stare at me while I was tearing up the treadmill, or making elliptical machines squeak. Creepy? lol. Nope. Part of those staring are the people that would come fora like this to comment that they saw "That one Fat dude bursting his lungs on cardio machines" Under: Funny things you see at the gym

Were you sweating or shitting yourself? I might silently chuckle internally if I saw a can of chili cut loose.

Shit happens. But it's never not funny.

Staring at a trainwreck is a little different than perving. You’re free to do as you wish of course. I’ve caught a few guys staring before and my bf and I roast the living fuck out of them once we get out of the gym. It’s always the most goofy-looking socially awkward people staring. The men who carry themselves with confidence at least have the self awareness to be slick and not look like 24/7 gooners.

It’s always a high value man directing his thousand yard stare into unsuspecting bootyholes!!

This is why I say let em stare. It makes them easily identifiable and you know to keep your distance.
