Can we talk about the absolutely amazing phenomenon: Gym Equipment Hijack

There could be TWO people in the biggest gym in the world.
You and the guy who just walked in. You’re doing your routine. You’ve already got it in your mind where you’re going to next. You have ONE more rep.
BAM! DONE.
You look up and ole’ random just plopped down to pump right where you had it in your mind to pump next.
Without fail. It has to be a gym law.
ETA: the other guy absolutely deserves the spot. My point is it seems the one dude is a mind reader every time.

I just flex the bicep and they usually run away crying.

That’s when you ask if you could “work in” and inevitably they are newcomers unfamliar with prpoer gym etiquette and reply “no thanks” I am just glad they are there and hell, I am glad I am there too! All in fun

Says no one. I want the gym to me and my Bros

Well, I am really big so I do not want to intimadte the newcomers and the bros fear me.

Think of it as seniority

Every single fricking time. And its always some clueless a-hole who either is using the only squat rack to curl, the only bench press to do flys (instead of using the 50 free benches that are there) or some guy looking at his phone for 15 minutes between sets.

I workout before work so it's all old people. If the 75 year old vet wants to wait for me to unload/load weights between his sets then I'll gladly even load his weight for him

But do you flex it after you do your barbell curls while still occupying the squat rack?

It's not really a hijack if they start using the equipment before you move to it.
Move faster you slow frick.
Move faster you slow frick.

This is why I always try to go earlier when my gym is relatively empty. I hate dealing with a full or even semi busy gym.
But still, I get your point, it even can happen when it's empty and it's crazy
