>"hey excuse me do you mind moving over there, this is my area" >they look at me for like half a second and ignore it then go back to talking about girl stuff or whatever
Your reaction seems over-the-top but I think if two chicks did that to me, mine would be as well. This type of shit triggers my repressed feelings of rejection and my misogyny.

yeh i think if they just said something i wouldnt have acting in that way, but the way they just ignored it like i said nothing it just made me mad
Christian Lee
Yeah I saw an empty barbell in an area of the gym some asshole had abandoned, loaded it up, and started doing deads when he came running over and was all, "oh, uh, jus got two sets left, lifting here though." "Oh, I didn't see you here, I thought you were over there, across the gym, talking to those two girls. You're welcome to work in though." He stared, I stared right back, and he left to go loudly bitch to his friends while I did my lifts and didn't give a shit. So yeah, that situation sounds familiar.
Luis Ortiz
If it was a guy who was bigger than you instead of two little girls you wouldn't have done shit

Robert Bailey
Not OP but that doesn't even work as a hypothetical question because no fucking guy would ever pull this shit
Jace Sanders
Also, use of the phrase "personal space" negates any possible respect. That's why a fatty showed you the door and you followed her orders.

There's this 18 year old girl that I aggressively hit on sometimes.
She bites her lip and twirls her hair and shit but I have her number (she canceled her date when she found out how old I was)
I'm like 90% sure I can convince her to go on a date with me with enough persistence though
Can I get kicked out of the gym for a first strike or just warned, if she goes to the front desk and complains? If she does complain should I say 'sorry' or pretend she's lying?
Tnks
Bentley Jones
You're retarded
Thomas Morgan
It doesn't matter what you actually do, if the guy at the desk gets a complain there's a chance you'll get kicked out. Just don't interrupt her workout or whatever, she's there to lift not to get laid.
Dylan Moore
yeh but im not some little bitch whos gonna move my setup because 2 whores came in and think they own the joint
Joshua Mitchell
Dude I'm really gonna get kicked out if she complains? You sure?
>there to lift not to get laid
I've gotten laid tons there though this girl just seems interested and she's real qt
It's not like you can't lift if you hit on girls at the gym. IDk what's up with this mentality here.
I understand not hitting on girls that work there because that's rude but she doesn't
Bentley Bell
>If my attempts at seduction don't work she might have to report me to the desk
Your methods might be slightly fucked user. If you're hitting on her correctly there would be no situation that needs reporting you for inappropriate behavior.
Ryan Sullivan
If you can talk while lifting why are you even there? You're obviously not doing shit. Unless you spend like 3-4 hours at the gym or some shit. I can't even think of how one talks to anyone at the gym without looking like a needy faggot. Everyone at my gym has headphones on and works out. Where does all this conversation happen?
Jeremiah Cox
>"hey excuse me do you mind moving over there, this is my area"
i cringed
Isaac Sanchez
I mean, usually, I'm pretty subtle. Just ask them for their number and then get coffee with them, don't even really hit on them.
But this one chick has got me steamed up user, yesterday I ran into her.
>I was just thinking to myself >Imagine how jealous your friends would be of you dating a handsome guy with a *real* job >parents love me >what are you waiting for
and she backsassed me but didn't straight dismiss me or tell me to gtfo
I dunno why I'm being so persistent with her, usually, I just give up if they don't want to get coffee straight away
Are you implying that I talk during my sets lol?
>where does all tis conversation happen
Free weights room d00d. If I see a qt I'll just say hi. Talk about something. Get their number. Text them. Get coffee. Bang them.

Kinesiology is a joke and nearly everyone with the degree is a fucking joke.
Daniel Bell
holy kek that is actually hilarious. Nothing pisses me off more than form critics who have no background in advanced lifting.
Tyler Phillips
Kinesiology is straight autism. People should stop paying for degrees that get them no where in society.
Justin Rogers

>a semester later, I have to take one credit class to finish my AA >the last class I had to take was literally "introduction to lifting" >argued to head of kin dept that I didnt need to take it as I know the basics, blah blah college is a flaming hoop, please jump this high etc >strength coach is teacher >the_ride_begins.jpg >first lesson >"Why Kin students are naturally fat shamers and need to stop" >"weight gain is genetic" >"if you are poor, you do not control gaining weight" >"squatting below parallel is bad" >"deadlifts are bad for your back" >cant contain myself and burst out laughing >next lessons include him calling on me for answers and trying to interupt me mid answer with a loud "WRONG" >start recording this behavior >notice how the material he goes over is the exact same as 5 other classes. Nothing new is ever shown. >after laughing a second time through all of this he tries to bar me >mandatory meeting with dean of kin dept >show him the powerpoint slides in that class and the 5 other classes >word for word similarity of material on each slide >say the classes are redundant and a waste of money as a result >tell him the history of his harassment >dean was pale and said I could return to class >skip to end of semester, have to write a research paper >part of project is submitting 1 week ahead of deadline for "early grading" to see if you're '"good" >since I wrote the paper on countering every point he made in the class and substantiating it with a work cited page that was 10 pages longer than the actual paper (I think I used about 60+ sources) he threatens me with an F >proceed with paper >recieve F >file grade grievance >have a friend who is in PT school and I know his professor well >ask someone with a PhD to come in to the grade grievance hearing >have him substantiate my claims and say my points are well supported >dean agrees >strength coach is visibly upset and storms out of room >get an A >rolled a blunt with my AA
Grayson Thomas
Jesus. user. I would have kms
Connor Murphy
good thing he's not a fcuking bitch like u
Connor Sanders
what's worse is that you can go an entire 4 years in a kin degree and never, ever, touch a barbell.
then you are expected to teach someone to barbell lift.
the result, most people pull shit out of their ass that is completely contrary to what the textbooks say and people dont know how to lift or do anything properly.
After my AA I torrented books online I read books that are in a post graduate level. Everything you learn in college is free on the internet
this is what I did >used AA >did one more semester to get a Physical Therapist Aide Degree (2 year, 3 year if PTA + Kin AA) >worked as a trainer during degree >have client base income of 4000/mo >open own gym with loan >can legally own a physical therapy office and hire a physical therapist as a physical therapist aide >hire physical therapist, and salary my pay in my company higher than his >eventually hire another PTA to do my job >business runs itself >do training about 20h/ week >PT office pulls me about 2500-5000 for doing NOTHING >training pulls another 4-5000
where was I going with this
oh right
I interviewed dozens of Kin majors, and PT's
the only one that knew the difference between low bar and high bar and had actual experience lifting - I hired
there was only one
this is depressing
Grayson Garcia
good shit
Hunter Adams
>Everything you learn in college is free on the internet
ok PT man u r very smart
Samuel Phillips
I would like to add I have an existential crisis during this time realizing that college is a dead end and full of retards, and only if you pay for a nice school and have a good professor, you will be okay
I have met many professors that use improper logic (I am getting a degree in philos FOR FUN)
they would 1. I claim Squatting below parrallel is bad 2. I have a Master's + degree 3. T I am correct in claiming squatting below parallel is bad
that's all the logic they use
when I ask them to substantiate their claims, they cant/
We live in a post-truth society

She isn't into you user get over her. A 3 year difference at that age doesn't matter at all she just accepted the date to spare your feeling and intended to flake ob you as soon as she said yes. The age was just a random excuse so she didn't have to hurt your feelings.

Theres a random cuck at my gym who will ask for the squat rack 5 minutes after I get on it. Refuses to work in, and I take at least 20 minutes doing squats while this cuck stares and watches the entire time.
Are you this cuck OP?

Anthony Allen
I feel you're not telling us the whole story here.
Connor Green
Isn't this Loltyler1 ?
Wyatt Collins
You see, the real answer is that you should have gotten a couple pads (not sure if your gym has them or what kind of plates you were using) and then just violently letting the weight slap the floor. If women see you violently swinging around 300-400 lbs, they're going to decide to fuck off just because of the perceived danger.
I mean, keep good form and all, but just let the weight drop and make some noise. Women hate noises that aren't coming from their own mouths.
Jack Lopez
a good 80% of it is. Hell, some professors even make their class websites public so you don't have to show up to class or even attend school to learn from them.
Joseph Butler
I wish women weren't free.

You should have asked them if they were trying to test you OP
