jerks in the gym

mrty · 2014-07-26 17:24:55

Hey, so recently started in the gym, im trying to put on a few extra pounds and of course I don't want this to be fat so I'm working out. Unfortunately I'm one of the dreaded ectomorph hard gainers, so tall and thin. Are all gyms nowadays just full of posing assholes. I've noticed now in several gyms these tanned up jerks…

If no one else in the gym is a jerk, does that make me the jerk?

Was quite self conscious when I started out as I knew many people in my local gym. Split my shorts mid squat (first set) on stronglifts the other week in flyefit. Didn't bat an eyelid. Got through my session and walked back to work.

Always wear clean (non white) underwear.

Only if you're nasty to skinny beginners.
