Yeah I want that gym vibe from the 70s/ 80s where everyone is hanging out, having a good time, and lifting together.
Looks comfy as
You can't have that when the country is majority non-white and everything is a social landmine.
Then why are people friendly and comfy at my muay thai gym?
Niche activities will attract likeminded people no matter race. A regular gym is going to attract all kinds of people.
makes sense
I have that at my gym. Don't go to a chain, go to a humble local gym and talk to the regulars.
Yeah it's fricking weird how much lifting attracts social morons. Like in any other sports you would just talk to the people around you every now and then, but not at weight lifting gyms apparently.
People in the 70s and 80s would have preferred to listen to music on their phone if they had the technology to do it.
Nah they wouldnt. They were having a great time together. They would not want to isolate themselves after they already know how cool it is to lift together.
maybe it's just the commercial gyms idk
Going to a random gym and lifting isn't a sport. It's just an activity people do on their own.
so is swimming but I found people to be more sociable at swimming pools
I’m just a-anxious senpai.
shut the frick up
You shut the frick up
if you want to open your mouth just get on your knees
It takes time for people to warm up OP. Set the example. Start saying hi, smiling and waving at people. I've started doing it, it's fun.
The gym should be a place where you walk in and proceed to destroy your self mentally and physically. It's not a fricking frat party or the fricking food court at the fricking mall. The fricks wrong with your homosexuals these days? Probably why your not making gains and either hoping on steroids, sarms or being bitter and accusing everyone else of being on them.
Ngmi homosexual.
I have very fond memories of discussing philosophy and other subjects with my uni bros between sets, very sad if you never had a similar experience.
Id kick you and your friends out if I heard you talking about Shoppenhower and Hegel or whatever gay shit and I don’t even work at a gym
you won't do shit you little autistic b***h
lol gymcel detected
Found the seething anti social homosexual lol. My best gains were made with brotier regulars
this thread was made by a woman
I only greet the gym receptionist and staff. Most of my gym is dumb dyel playboys I don't want to talk to.
Not everyone had the constant positive reinforcement and or height growing up to be social
>be me
>walk into gym, no eye contact
>watch people do lifts, do my lifts in privacy
>no ear buds in, no headphones, don't use phone
>nobody talks to me
I like it this way. I'm at the gym to lift, not to hang out. I had to tell off my friend who used to chat chat chat chat and we'd barely do anything in the hour we're there. I'll just deadlift 4 pl8s in solitude, let people mire me, and mire others. If they *usually wiminz) catch me mirin, I look away.
why the frick would you want to socialize when you're supposed to be working out? imagine replacing lifting with running, it's clear that you're not getting a good lift in if you're treating it as a social occasion.
Imagine having autism. Sounds horrid.
I'm not autistic, it's autistic to not understand social contexts like
>when people are occupied, don't talk to them
the gym is a place where people are occupied because they're doing something. It's the same shit as autismos not understanding that headphones mean don't talk to that person.
Poor lil fella. I think they have medication that can help you.
There's a dude at my gym I never ever saw use any machine lol. All he does is talk to women.
No one has ever initiated conversation with me in my entire life
This is good bait
JUST LEAVE ME ALONE I WOULD HAVE A HOME GYM IF I HAD THE SPACE FRICKING NORMIES REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I smile at the front desk staff, and say hi if they're not occupied as I walk in/out. Other than that I specifically avoid the gaze of every other person while at the gym.
you don't mire other lifts? i mire and avert eye contact if they look at me. but i also pay close attention to the noobs who look like they're gonna injure themselves. once stepped in and saved some moron's life from a failed bench
Kek at these homosexuals not orcmaxxing people fear me
That's me I also have a lot of self harm scars. Everyone is white so I assume some of the other gym posters are edgy polcels. I'M here to LIFT boys.
I socialize at work, with friends, when I do hobbies... I go to the gym to lift. I've literally talked to people I see inside the gym when I see them at the grocery store or smth but when I get to the gym; my music is on and I just want to push some weights. The gym is actually the only place I'm anti-social because majority of the time I'm annoyed that people are on equipment I want to use, especially because 99% of the time they aren't putting up respectable numbers and literally just wasting time.
Who the frick wants to socialize at the gym lmao. Do y'all really not have friends and shit?
>Respectable numbers
Get over yourself you dumb twat
I feel personally attacked.
