Your local gym characters

If he's doing weight training he's probably still pretty strong underneath that fat user.

Also as dumb as it sounds, I know people who go to the gym just so they can eat really unhealthy shit all day so maybe he's just doing that to 11.

If he's been trying to lose weight for years he'd know to change diet, right?

>Every single cardio bunny
Hot as hell. Will spend 5 minutes in the free weights area and escape as soon as possible as if afraid they're going to get magically buff. Will get off their mat and leave if you start exercising next to them,

>and then there's me
Weird guy who wears the same bright orange shorts on squat day. Decent lifts. Looks way bigger than I am strong. Only interact with guys (no homo). Have never hit on a girl at the gym in 2 year +. Gets bitched at by the gym staff because I bath myself in icy hot between sets.

Pic related is my ass so you can better picture the individual I am.

>Will get off their mat and leave if you start exercising next to them
This shit irritates me so much. I'm here for the equipment and to finish my workout, don't flatter yourself.

I'm a huge fat guy that just started out.

Wasn't sure if I should change my diet much. Is it okay to cut calories (i.e. go 1500-2000) a day and still do a lift routine?

If you don't want to be a big fat guy anymore you should cut your calories

>The guy that only does deadlifts

If you're huge then you have plenty of calories stored. Increase protein and fat intake while decreasing carbs but stay in the same calorie range you did before working out. No need to reduce calories you will see results. If you cut too much your body will not respond well. Your body will have plenty of building material for gainz and make up the lack of energy from your fat stores.
Don't go crazy and just cut out carbs completely like some idiots, just make your diet favor protein and some fat, preferably unsaturated fat but saturated is still ok. Peanut butter is great, oatmeal is great, peanut butter in oatmeal as breakeast is great and delicious.

He said no calves, not dyel.

Are you trying to make the guy even fatter you dumb dumb?

its hard to eat a lot over maintenance when you're snacking on chicken breast instead of doritos. Lowering carbs is the most foolproof way to recomp or cut

>squats 4.5pl8 and dls 5pl8+ probably benches mid 3pl8
he better be a twink

Veeky Forums in a nutshell

>the old man in khakis, smart shoes, and a polo
it's just more confusing than anything

read

only if you're an incel

There's one guy at my gym who is the embodiment of every meathead gym douche meme to ever live.

Ego lifter, wears a hat indoors, yells loud as fuck, deliberately slams weights, leaves gear/dumbbells/plates lying around everywhere, mean mugs everybody, and worst of all he spends at least 10-15 minutes EVERY. SINGLE. FUCKING. DAY. flexing/grunting at the bathroom mirror and taking pictures of himself shirtless. Every goddamn day. He's not even that big.

There's no doubt in my mind he is an avid Veeky Forums poster, so on the off chance you read this, guy, you're a fucking fag.

Lol all you ppl talking about black guys at the gym. Ive never seen a black person in my life. Living in america is like some national geographic wild shit

samefag roider

>fat powerlifting-ish crew that all lift equal or less than me at triplish bf%

>ripped as fuck roided asian guy that avoid barbells like fans in his room at night

>mixed looking grill that squats 2 pl8 in tight yoga pants

>guy that looks sort of like brendan fraiser but +20 years and +100 lbs, does 1 set of random workouts around the gym, rambles to himself while doing them making strange noises sometimes, and always tries to see if he can open the fire exit for some reason

>anorexic girl that comes in to do leg curls for 15min then goes home

>mexican that does 2pl8 deadlift for 5 reps with the most atrocious form I've ever seen in my whole entire life

>not that big
kek im huge u know it skelly bb ur upset u cant kiss me on my lips

There are some Somalis at my gym. They don't do anything different from locals except speaking in their language.

>little mumbai
dead.

>>That ugly manlet with a droppy face who does loads of cardio and wears the same clothes everyday
oh fuck, that hit too close user. fuck

is this gym in Calgary?

yea, OP is too real. always token black guy or crew always an indian guy or crew always skinny guy doing box jumps over and over

Cut your calories by 500 and lift consistently

>The powerlifters who will occupy the squat racks for literal hours on end

>The bodybuilding bros, always around the benches and dumbells

>That old couple who actually do free weight exercises together

>The strong one
The only guy in our gym who can hit 2/3/4/5

>The old asian guy who does pullups with 2pl8s strapped to him

Guys, that's his caloric intake BEFORE hitting the gym. You shouldn't go past 500 calories a day below maintenance or you will starve your body and make your body think its starving and make it much much easier later to add on weight because your body wants to survive. Slow and steady for permanent results.

Nah, Omar just looks like shit for how much he can lift and how long he's been lifting.

s m h

Id guess hes probably 190-200. He's also probably about 5'8".
No, Minnesota.

Gosh, I am so happy I live in my shithole country. Everyone here is hostile towards fags and fagettes, blacks are like 0,0001% of society and the pakis are too afraid to even speak to you

>Starting fat
y-ye I'm just a l-lucky guy

>pajeet&rajeet
Pajeet is skinny fat, no strength at all. Rajeet is in auschwitz-mode, so for the weight probably way below 100lbs he is fairly strong, I expect someone sneezing might break him in half
>Little redhead-dick-riding-hood
Stacey, who already hit the proper age to be called milf. She comes to the gym with the biggest and strongest guy in the whole place
>Bruce Willis gone roidin'
He is a bf of abovementioned Stacey. He is kinda cool, does his workout and never interrupts anyone, even though he is strong and has rather good form on almost all lifts, he decides to do incline bench with half-reps. Looks exactly like roided version of Bruce Willis.
>The Concrete-mixers band
Group of fatsos, who only do bench press with exactly 2plates. They never talk to anyone except themselves.
>Esmeralda the gypsy queen
Looks like a regular gypsy, but that isn't possible as she pays for her own monthly pass. Is a rather good looking cardio bunny. Once she asked me to set the barbell for her in the squat rack, but couldn't answer what height she wants it to be. If I didn't have a mirror at home, I would probably think she might be mirin.
>and then there is me
Sad excuse for a lifter. I never talk to anyone except for one personal trainer, who asks me about technique tips. I have a really bad habit of watching sloots for way too long, so probably everyone considers me a creep. However, as I am the strongest there, no one gives me shit.

>The beefy bull dyke looking chick who I'm positive could fight literally anyone else in there and hold her own

Not terribly exciting, but they're fixtures

Poland (cannot into gains)

Jokes aside I have no fucking idea how is it possible that we had great oly weightlifters and powerlifters throughout the history, but everyone I meet in a gym is some dumb bro-splitter or fatso in his 40s, who claims to have lifted XYZ 'back in mah day'

>Good looking 6'2" bloke with gf who doesn't deserve him.

>Not terribly exciting
Shut the fuck up, your gym looks like the cast of a comedy sketch

Eh, it's XSport

>That Soccer mom that is too out of shape for most people with self respect but she oddly turns you on as she does yoga to the side of the dumbell rack while you lift

>That really small guy who you respect for lifting weights but you can tell he is deeply self conscious by his mannerisms

>That girl who looks like she could be 16 with flirting with the biggest dudes in the gym who are in their 30s

>That guy who ignores you when you ask if he is using a piece of equipment and someone next to him who isn't autistic gives you the go ahead

>>That girl who looks like she could be 16 with flirting with the biggest dudes in the gym who are in their 30s

Training for strength vs training for girls.

He would look good of he cut his BF percentage but why would he sacrifice all his strength gainz for that? He already has a 10/10 gf.

I don't think I'm doing anything weird or impressive but somehow I catch people paying attention to me for some reason which annoys me a lot tbqh. Maybe I'm schizo/paranoid or whatever

That's all I can remember currently besides your typical gym characters one might expect

Do you live In Japan?

>slightly above dyel manlet on a shoulder press machine going up to 3 people on 3 different sets asking them to lift it up for him so he doesn't "waste energy" on the first lift and explaining this to every new person.

Funny thing this happened today, I was next to him the whole time but he never asked me but walked across to the dumbell area to ask others. Maybe I'm too intimidating (hopefully)

>that guy who wavedashes on the treadmill

>>that old man that does some ultra gay yoga movements and then goes to the showers to be naked for half an hour
Haha

Confirmed I have to check my internet histories to make sure but it's a solid yes

>that guy that does a lap around the gym between exercises

>that guy that rests for like 5 minutes between sets and just stares at girls asses and watches other people lift

>that guy that warms up with the bar even if he's lifting heavy

>>that guy that warms up with the bar even if he's lifting heavy
That be me

>>that guy that rests for like 5 minutes between sets and just stares at girls asses and watches other people lift

This is 90% of people at my gym including me. This isn't normal? 5 minutes being an exaggeration of course

Where is this gym? Some characters seem familiar

>Shredded 6'2 chick who is smoking hot but people are too scared to go near her

She is also at my gym mabye on this board too
But when she comes to my gym she is 5,10 are you sure she is 6,2 or are you just shorter then her so think amazongrill.exe

Thats me. im pretty fat but i honestly dont care, cardio, deadlifting, squats and pullups to maintain my healthy diet. (150kg) (30 min runs) (no assist) (100kg)

>tfw I always totally avoid looking at people so i cant even build a coherent mind map of which characters go to my gym

I cant even remember the last time i looked at someone's face who wasnt already about to talk to me.
