They throw off the center of balance, they just hide the wrong position of the bar on the neck (if the bar was in the right position, you wouldn't need the pussypad)

The gym i go to is 24 hr. I normally go after 9pm, and there are about 5 different stereotypes of people there.

-School Children curling, who have to wait for the mum to come and pick them up; use most machines, with minimum weight, every arm exercise.
>What is DL Squats etc?

-Middle aged clueless guys that perform quick reps, low weight machine use.

-The Indians. mfw struggling and grunting doing bodyweight arm raises, 10lb cable rows, BB BP with just the bar etc etc.

-Bros who actually know what they are donig (rare)

-Coons. Will explain next

Coons in the gym.

This is the best.

There is a middle aged fat female (95% white) coon who has a PT (govt funded) the PT struggles to teach her, because she is a typical coon; aboriginal clothing, arrogant, self-entitled, know-it all, out of this world pride, yet nothing to be proud of. etc.

Tells the PT that she has done enough reps or sets if she is experiencing any discomfort or energy use, even if only one or two reps, and then walks away to next exercise.

Uses tiny dumb bells (5-10lb or so) for dumbbell flys, after one rep, breaks down crying. middle aged guy doing about 50lb lat pulldowns laughs out loud.

I was doing seated OHP, and grabbed the 25lb dumbbells for warm up. PT tells her to watch my form, "he is doing it well", Coon dismisses her PTs advice and proceeds lulzform. I put down 25lb and pick up 100lbs for my 5x5. Coon pushes out 3--4 reps of 10lb OHPs before leaving to do some tricep pulldowns

Coons form is hilarious. Using Smith machine for squats, no weight on bar. PT shows her correct form. Locks knees in and bends upper back 1/100 ROM. PT shows her how to do it properly, she says 'nah, i am going to do it like this'. does 6 or so reps and then says she is done.

Lol. Would certainly be interesting.

School children have little to no gym etiquette.

There was a group of auschwitz mode kids, and some chubby girl they were trying to impress, in the time it took me to do my squats, the left two odd sized dumbbells, an EZ bar, and fixed weight bar on the ground near the benches, as well as leaving their weights on the BP olympic bar.

It isn't like they were in a rush because their mum was their to pick them up, they spent the next half hour on their phones and impressing the girl with light weight machine exercises,

mfw devoid of gym etiquette

SNF never came back.

The Algerian eventually had to leave the country because his parents didn't get to stay after all. Chechen stopped coming after that. Was sad to see him go, he had the right attitude, and even the bearmode old farts had come to accept him.
