Don’t Lube Up For the Gym

Patrick here again guys, and I’ve got a funny gym story to brighten your day and help you know what not to do in the gym.

Last Monday I was at my gym, getting my ass to the grass and doing some deep, deep squats, when in between my sets I looked over at the mirrors.

Honest to Jesus, there’s a man stood there down to a stringer vest and the shortest shorts I’ve ever seen (like, when he bent over, I could see ball-slip), and he’s putting on moisturizer. I’ve seen a lot in the gym, but I never thought I’d see that. Anyway, this tanned wonder oils himself up with what looks like lube. I just had to go over and ask: What the hell you doing, bro?

He says to me “It’s testosterone gel,” with a look like “Do you even lift, brah?” Was tempted to flex a bit, show him what real work looks like, but I thought, man, you gotta keep your cool. You’re an Internet sensation now, you know? So instead, I says, “You sure that’s safe. Like, before you do weights?”

“It’s the only way to do weights and get gains,” he answers, rolling his eyes. Well, that’s it. I’m out. I walk back to the squat rack and just start repping out again the way I do.

But, I can’t help it, I’m keeping my eye on this cowboy, and I’m glad I did. He walks over, picks up some dumbbells that are way too heavy for him, practically gives himself a hernia right off the lift, and then tries to sit on the incline bench to get doing some flyes. I say “tries” because as soon as his greased up back touches that bench he slips right off the other side and, ass up in the air, lies in a heap on the floor. Best bit is, his short shorts are now cheese-wiring his nads!

The moral of this story is, don’t be a douche nozzle in the gym because it will come back to haunt you.
