the what u saw at the gym TODAY thread

Fair game? Come on man
He already had 4 plates behind him, I had 2. Was just too lazy to move a couple of 20kg plates to get to his own. Typical example of 'kunce gonna kunce'
 
Doesn't matter. If they are not on a bar then it's fair game.
Accidentally drop one on his toe. [emoji6]

Yep, that's the bro code.

Anything on the tree is fair game.

On the ground under your bar, maybe not. Ask first.

On the bar: This is Sparta!!!!

I don't mind people taking weights off the squat rack while I'm using it, but I do get pissed off with people loading the rack up with shrapnel so that I have to unload to get at the "real" weights. Take all dat chit over to the weight tree you fukka. No squat rack needs more than two of any weight, unless they are 20's.
 
at least he took it off your tree, at the gym I go to, you can't turn ur back even during the rest between sets or else they'll take it off the bar. That means you can't even superset during the busy period or else you'll be looking for your weights again.

If it was on your rack not the communal tree and he didn't even ask if you were using them that's a bit of a cock act. Little bit of manners goes a long way....

Less than quarter reps on a pin loaded shoulder press machine. The range of movement was seriously less than 10cm then with a lockout at top that made my elbows hurt!!

Same thing with a young bloke squatting today. 3 plates a side. Not even hitting a 1/4 rep.

Cant apply that all time, if I for example drag over the plates I need for benching for the next 4 sets, I wouldn't let a kunce just walk up and take them. Normally I just smile and say sorry I'm still using those.
 
That's pretty much what I do. Use the first rest break to sort out what plates I need and organise them so I don't have to move chit around every set to get the plates I want and this tweeb just came and pinched them without asking. I always use the plates on the bench/rack tree before going to other pieces of equipment or the communal tree even if I have to move 4 x 20's to get to that little 2.5 at the back.
 
Saw a casual weightlifter push-press 160kg today and just missed 165.

Meanwhile my 13yo son easily oly squatting close to 1.5x bw

its a new super high intensity short movement new age scientifically enhanced program, you wouldn't understand cos you don't wear bike pants.
 
You guys would really just take plates off someone who was benching without asking? Pretty rude! We don't have communal plate racks.

Saw a lady squat to depth...on a bosu ball. Actually had a decent squat pattern. Wasted haha
