>had sex with the crazy but hot PT in my gym
>have to go extremely early in the morning now
>flyes with barbells instead of dumbbells
Counting the bar
I sharted while squatting once
Tsk tsk tsk. Looks like someone forgot their plug at home
>stood inside the power rack, took the bar onto my back and stepped forward into the rest of the gym to squat
>went with basketball shorts to the gym
Eight years ago:
> first day at gym, 135lb skellington
> try to incline bench 135lbs
> unable to lift bar back up, stuck with it halfway up and slowly coming towards my forehead
> bend neck forward to avoid bar, it drops behind my neck and starts sliding down my back while I'm still gripping it, causing massive shoulder pain
> nice gym bro sees what's happening and runs over to help me get out of the situation
> say thank you
> start benching empty bar because even though my shoulder is in pain I think this will undo my shame
> shoulder hurts for weeks afterwards
Used a deadlift bar for bench
>GOMAD
I read SS and did what it told me to do. A month later I'm a fatass and I have to cut
>qt that works at the gym "bar" mirin me
>I'm always awkward around her and don't say anything
>one day she sees me outside the gym doing shopping
>she says hi
>i drop my shit and get my basket tangled in some crap and look like a retard, say nothing
>few days ago she walks up to me mid workout
>apparently she only speaks english (not an english country)
>"hey why don't you ever come grab a shake?"
>h-hwat
>"hey why don't you ever come grab a shake?"
>n-no I'm good
>"come give me some tips haha jk"
>o-ok
>she's been ignoring me since
i have a much hotter gf and i can do better but for some reason she makes me autistic af.
Set the bench up the wrong way so I uracked it backwards like pic related. Also ego lifted with 135 and bounced the bar off my chest like a retard. Cringing hard looking back on it.
>about to use some machine
>it's not adjusted properly for me
>try to figure out how to adjust it
>get nervous because people are looking
>trying for too long (5 seconds maybe)
>don't want them to think I'm retarded
>i guess this will have to do
>use the machine as it is
>uncomfortable as fuck
I bet I'm not the only one
I know that feel.
>tfw no gym bar qt to awkwardly flirt with me mid workout
Why even live brehs
Wore my running shoes to lift
>benching 95 lbs. 25 plates on both sides
>"This doesn't look to hard"
>proceed to bench with no spotter
>weight falls on my chest literally stuck thinking should I drop the weights on one side and make a huge ass bang noise and have everyone look at me or should I wait for someone to help me?
>biggest dude in the gym runs over and gets the weight off of me
>I leave
Ahhh the good ol days
Literally what the fuck is wrong with this
overhead pressed in the squat rack
>went drinking from the water fountain between sets
>tfw one of the bigger guys in the gym so nobody says anything when i do this
>don't have a lock to put my gym bag away
>autistically carry my gym bag to each area of the gym while I do my workout
>I do this for about a month
>gym starts putting up signs saying gym bags arent allowed in the lifting area
>no one else did this but me
