It's not what I saw today, it was what I smelt. This older guy using the machine next to me just reeked. I almost gagged. Didn't realise people could smell so bad.
 
Another lanky guy being coached by the PT at the gym, struggling at 60kg for reps. So what does he do, starts yelling "DEEPER!" every time he went for it. The last rep he yelled "DEEPEST!", and I could barely stifle my laugh. It was hell distracting as I was trying to overhead squat with a straight face.
 
Theres an older guy who ive given some programming and technique advice on, his son was training tonight, its obviously been passed on.

15yrs old, 50 something kilos, stringbean of a kid, squatting 62.5 for 3x5 to depth.
 
Just saw a little kid, who was at the gym with his dad, step onto a treadmill while a lady was running on it, and he got absolutely axed. Shouldn't laugh but it was too good.
 
Was in the news today.

Martin passes out with a 180kg front squat - YouTube

POOR Martin. He was just trying to set a new personal best at the gym and it all went horribly wrong.
You can see the steely determination in his eyes at the start. He's pumped for the 180kg front squat ahead of him.
He just forgot to breathe, which is a critical component of squatting ... and not fainting.
But don't worry about Martin. His gym says he got right up and walked away from the crushing gym fail. And he's going to have another crack at it this week (his current PB is 172.5kg).
Apparently he'd just lifted the bar too close to his windpipe.
Good luck with the next attempt, Martin.
