Just bring a gym duffle with you. They'll think you're camping there.

I go back and forth on this. If they’re being a douche about it I’ll straight up tell them it’s going to be a while and that they’re better off moving on with their work out. I try to be courteous and ask if they’d like to work in or something.

But...

There have been instances of kids playing on their phones and taking selfies or just spending a ton of time fricking around and I just straight up Debo their shite. You don’t get to talk selfies in the gym and still get the respect of me giving you you’re space.

I only hover on squat rack and bench press. They’re always full.

Ya you have to hover squats or you'll never get to do them.

You mean you don't ask, "Can I work in?" and then lift 50% of what they're doing while expecting them to help take off and put on the plates?

That is the best thing about a home gym. No more standing 5-10 feet from the squat rack trying to stay warm until it opens up and then having to fight for it like a wild animmal trying to mate with the only available female in 50 miles.

No, frick you. (A) for using a machine in the first place and (B) for being a douche while doing it.

Absolutely. Not only do I have a personal squat rack now, I can use it buck naked and no one cares. Try that in a commercial gym.

I start adding 45s and they freak. It’s pretty cool.

Actually, don't try this in a commercial gym. Trust me on this one, things go real bad real quick.
