When I do weights, I sometimes have the need to swear. If I'm finishing out a very hard set, then I sometimes need to push out the last one with gritted teeth, then let loose with a string of invective. Fun when I'm doing it with free weights at home. Gets me disapproving looks at my small local gym, where mums cycle just metres from the weights.

So god bless Firefly and the nice people who translate the Mandarin on the show. Cause now I can say exceedingly rude things, without anyone raising an eyebrow.

I'd soooo go to the gym more if you were doing weights in there! ;)

Even if I was growling "Fuck everyone in the universe to death," after forcing out another Shoulder Press?

Especially if you were doing that...it would be interesting to hear in your accent! ;)
 
Sorry, I meant saying it in Mandarin (it's the rough translation of the thread title). In English, I'd probably restrict myself to "Fuck me softly with a chainsaw" or something similar.

At a gym I used to work out at there was a group of guys training for the World's Strongest Man competition. They NEVER swore when they lifted. But what bothered the other gym patrons was that they'd work so hard that they'd puke after every couple of sets. They had trash cans pulled over by where they were working and they'd do their set, fall off the machine, and hurl into the can.

I think everyone would have prefered swearing. LOL.

I used to know someone like that. Did his workout in complete silence and chucked up at the end. He used to say that swearing was just wasted breath that could be used to push out another set.

Very, very focussed guy and about three leagues up from my workout. Proper Colchester United vs Chelsea if we were using the same machines one after another.

Just :D at the football analogy! kudos!
 
Never heard the puking thing, although my ex-husband played quarterback in college, and he used to puke before games.

My best friend here in town is married to the guy who won the Alabama Powerlifting title last year. I don't mind watching him work out at all. :D
