Ok, so this is sorta werid but heres the thing.

I go to a gym in wellington, not going to say da name of it as dont wana be direct/rude etc. And at my gym there are these 4 dudes who always come when im working out. This is the ONLY time I can come to the gym as when I finish my work the gyms closed ( fin at night ).

When these dudes come they take over the areas, and wont move ( even when asked nicley ) they dont work out, they just move from machine to machine, totally totally cluless and retarded, clearley dont know how to use any of the machines etc. Last week I was doing bench and one of the dudes stood RIGHT over me pretending to spit on my face looking down at me while his other mates were laughing there head off. (Im a real nice dude, one of them that spot randoms at the gym if I see they need it etc, say hi to most people) I got up and askd him wtf he was doing etc then he did the whole " lets take it out side ". Lots of crap like this has happend so much.

I walked away as didnt I want to be a idiot. when there today and they were by all the bench area and just wouldnt move at all. I have limited time at the gym and I dont muck around, im happy waiting for somebody else to finish as I can always go do something else then come back ( 30min later ) there still there. asking if i can grab a bench for 5min was told " fk off whitey".

I train with my personal trainer weekly, and they will always move when she is there, always move away, never be a problem. the issues is I told my PT about it, and she just laughed, told her i was serious and he just laughed it off. and did the whole, "every gym has that, its just the way guys are "

Told one of the Management team and they were just " oh ok" and they have heard this from me a few times. and i always get well dude.....nobody has this problem but you. These guys are aged around 25+.

Simple question. do I just laters the gym? and go to a new gym?or is this normal? and am I just finally seing this stuff happen mabe? do I just need to toughen up and get over it? has anybody else had this before? its the most werid thing thats happen to me lol. never ever ever got bulled when I was at school, but now when im 24? at the gym? lol!

Do a couple of cycles, get huge and train with the big boys, your problem will then disappear :pfft:

But in all seriousness, that's a pretty crazy situation. In most cases a good gym would have either noticed the behaviour or have given the guys a talking to after you told them about what's going on. If it continued after that I'd like to think that the management in most gyms would kick them out.

It's nothing to do with hardening up, you pay for a service and aren't getting it due to staff not doing their job and sorting it out. I'd say if they're not going to do anything about it you probably have grounds to leave the gym and be compensated for the price of your membership. Someone more knowledgable would probably be able to give more info in regards to that though.

Get Big Kiwi to come along next train, just to spot you. Bet they wont give you shit after that :pfft:

Yea that could work.

You could just tell them to pull there heads in and stop being a bunch of fuckwits. People like that infurate me. Write to management explaining the situation and let them know that they are going to start losing members if they continue to do nothing... or accidently drop a 50kg dumbell on one of their feet. Be creative.

At your age this thing happens, young adults like to try it on to prove they've still got it around their mates. They wouldn't do jack if they were alone though.

I'd give management a letter telling them you're leaving due to harassment, and staff (PT AND management) not doing anything about it despite it continuing. Demand to break any contract unless they do something RIGHT NOW and let them know they've failed to live up to their service agreement if they start to cite contractual crap.

Hell, I'd even type out the link to this thread in the letter and let them read it themselves and know that 2,000 other gym-paying people know there's a crappy gym in Wellington with useless PT's and staff to tell their family and friends to avoid in the future.

You could let us know the gym in case someone on the forum goes to it and has a bit more sway with management to do something for you.

to be honest this is pretty fucken far from normal man - theres plenty of munters out there, but those guys are obviously in a league of their own.

personally id do my nut at them, give them all sorts of shit - at worst youll cop a twak - but even if this does happen it will mean you can put an assault charge on them, and really highlight the problem. If management still ignored this, they are bigger munters than the gorillas youre on about! :pfft: :pfft:

Yeah i hate to say it dude but i agree with 2 guns. Grow some balls and tell them to get fucked. If you can't do that and can't handle it just change gyms.

Otherwise you could try and hit big kiwi up for a train, if you took him in while they were there they would proibably never give you shit again. Might be worth a crack. Let us know how you go.

sounds like a whole heap of ignorance...

are they the wanna be gangster type dudes?

Well two of the dudes were mungie colours. But im rocking the gym 2mrow and I know they will def be there. And dont have my trainer as shes away. So ill confront them 2mrow if they do anything.

Figure I got nothing to lose, and if i get knocked out then at least they will get banned. And ill have a cool story to tell hahaha.

f*ck that, always make sure you get the first one in, and if it you are up against a couple of them make it a real cheap shot to try and even things up a bit.

But if you do it properly you should be able to get them to forget about you without any agro. Just stand up for yourself and tell them to just lay off.
