There's this one guy at my gym that literally grunts/yells during every rep, even on smaller lifts. He also likes to yell at the mirror before a set to psych himself up and congratulates himself loudly at the end of sets.

There was also a similar guy at my old gym that used to announce loudly to the gym what weight he was about to do "90kg! Come on! 90kg!"

I also had this one guy come over and tell me that his squat was like mine 3 months ago, but keep at it and I'll be able to squat as much as him. He then proceeded to load up the bar and did literally the shallowest squats I've ever seen, to call them 1/8 squats would be generous.

Finally I hate people who deadlift pathetic weight but slam it down as if to show off how heavy it is. Yes 100kg will make a lot of noise, no its not an impressive deadlift.

These four guys

Do a few reps of 150 pounds on lat pulldown

Then go and do some bro curls

One curls while the other 3 spot him / point at and feel each others' biceps

They encompass everything wrong with commercial gyms

Ok I've finally found something.



I have to work the close at my gym, and when it's 9.45pm (we close at 10), there's always this middle aged couple that come in to start training.

I would be alright with it if they were serious enough to power through a quick session, but instead they just work through it at their leisure.


I have to kick them out every single night... get a hint?

    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
    • curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.
    • S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
