Any gym superstitions from the OT lifters?

Other than the obvious:
If I'm in a gym that has iron grip weights, those with cutouts for handling them, I have to rotate them all so they align, like I'm about to crack a safe before my lifts; especially when going heavy.

Curling in the squat rack.. Check

Always leave maximum weight on bars.
Never replace dumbells together, in their correct spot.
When using machines, always borrow at least one extra pin from another machine, and do not return it.

Check.
Also, I have the same setup routine when getting under a bar or starting any set.
I cannot put in headphones or listen to music until I am about to start.
With 30s left in the set rest I have to pace back and forth.
2 claps before the first set of squat, deadlift, or bench.
The bar has to be exactly centered on the rack after each set.
etc.
etc.

It puts me in the frame that I'm about to bust this set..
The only thing I'm OCD about is whether or not a closed the garage door. Like every day.

Do you align you weights to serve some type of a supernatural power so that they may bestow great things up you?
I think you've confused superstitions with HABITS or WAYS YOU LIKE TO DO THINGS.

to let others know how seriously you take dehydration and is a sure way to monitor the total h2o intake. In other words, its a sign telling everyone you are a douche.

Always do legs first
Never do 13 reps, or any multiple of 6.
If you lose count, you have to start the set over.

Gym bag on the bench I need while I go get water, take a leak, and chat with a buddy in the hall.

I avoid going to the gym on days that end in "y". I'm superstitious like that.

he should've spelled "thirteenth" out. Then he wouldn't be in this mess. What was the rule in school? If it's under one hundred, spell it out?

Spell out numbers at the start of a sentence in any case.
