People who furiously jerk off weights at the gym.

Ultra Annoyed

So after dealing with major health problems, mainly a fucking stroke, I have recently gone back to the gym.

I am starting to lift weights. Just had some dipshit come over and “correct” my form. I am doing triceps extensions on the machine. Some douche came over and said I’m doing it too slow. You know, like controlled. He sat at the machine next to me and decided to bull power the weight up and let it crash back down loudly, completely uncontrolled.

I just sort of nodded and brushed him off. I looked around and pretty much everyone here is just jacking off the weights and clanging them around like a wild animal.

How do people think this is the way it’s supposed to be done? Christ. Not only is that extremely less efficient at building muscle, but it’s a good way to injure yourself.

Am I out of my mind or what?!
