well, there are numerous types of gym goers.. 1st and foremost, u have those who are competitive ... with one motive and one motive alone.. join a bodybuilding competitions.. you will see them at one corner pumping their heads off, with screams and shouts accompanying each lift and pull... i don't belong here.. hahaha..... well, i belong in the 2nd category...
2nd category - the type also in one corner carrying hardworkingly for "GOD KNOWS WHAT REASON" cause there is no intention of joining any bodybuilding competition.. hahaha... also huff and puff loudly with every clank and nevertheless.. serious bodybuilders who stick a "DO not Disturb" sign in front of him each time he works out...
then u have the 3rd category who comes to the gym in a pack and talks and chats at each and every machine and don't know what they are doing. most of the time, you hear then giggle around and chuckle and even laugh at others who are working hard. I have no idea why they are there instead of the coffee shop.. lol
and of course, the famous category, those who go to the gym to check out the opposite gender... lol... you will see them staking on their target and most of the time "SHIOK SENDIRI" at one corner while the head follows the bouncing whatever.... scary though.. some looks as if they can swallow u whole... hahaha....
so I do wanna inform the public.. there are place for the right events and gym is a place where people come to workout out, sweat out the day's stress and to maintain a good health.. not a lepak (Loitering) site for ppl to clean their eyes or gossip..
if you don't know the rules... well, i don't know the whole list but here are some...
- Wear proper attire.. that means singlets or shirts (Shirts off is ok if you know how to clean the machine afterwards), pants (long or short) no jeans or slack unless u wanna get it torn and look sexy after... and SPORT SHOES... pls ppl.. it's not just for show or comfort.. it's for you own safety.. all these plates are heavy and sharp on most.. I've seen someone who dropped a 50lbs plate on their open toes.. not a good sight.
- DON'T stare at someone working out. If you wanna see how he does it, watch from afar and maybe take a few peek is all right. don't walk up next to the person and stare down.
- Keep your distance from the person working out. Not just about personal space. what if the person loses the balance and drops the plates..??
- PLEASE PLEASE... ABSOLUTE DON'T EAT THOSE DELICIOUS UNHEALTHY FOOD IN THE GYM... man, i was in a gym once where the wife of the person working out was happily eating away a McDonalds Big MAC McValue in the gym.. be considerate and think of others, a lot of these people are trying to lose weight by not thinking bout those kinda food and some might be struggling with the "YUCKY TYPE OF FOOD I EAT (i find it delicious ya :P )" anyways... almonds and wholemeal bread is fine in the gym even power bar bt not Fried Kueh Tiaw or Fried Rice ok :S
- Don't stand and wait impatiently next to someone who is using a machine. I am sure the gym have a lot of equipment, enough to satisfy your each muscle groups. It's very rude to do so and not only that, it makes a bimbo out of you for acting immaturely. There was a time I was using these sets of 25 dumbbell and the gym haf 2 sets. One guy came up to me and asked me am I done with the dumbbells cause he wanna use. I told him I am left with 3 sets. He just stood there to wait for my set. I looked at the rack and saw the other set of 25 was resting there. I finish off 1 set and pass the dumbbells to him. and I was being a jerk a little by walking pass him and said "OH WOW! here's another set of 25, Lucky me" the guy looked embarrassed... come on people.. there are more than 10 types of exercise to work that triceps of urs and more than 15 to work that lat. be sensible...
- haiz... don't wanna think no more.... too many but... hear me out... it's not just bout the gym. If you can't even be a thoughtful person in a place what does that make you?
Anyways, this is a set of pictures from my facebook under (Funny Faces in the gym) :P
Gosh, I didn't know i was making these monkey faces around.. hope no 1 took me seriously :P
Nope, I'm not constipated :S
Hahahaha... speechless... emm... i think i was breathing on one set
As If looking for a fight with a dumbbell in each hand :P
Check out my teeth :S
