What is the most common word you hear in the gym?

[Dastardly]

In mine it is definitely by a mile,

Bro.

More of a phrase:

"That's all you man."

[Polynomial]

"I am a smart and an attractive female and would love for you to take me back to your place, Polynomial."

:( no, not really.

[George Noble]

"You have an absolutely breathtaking hiney."

[nisora33]

"That was an awesome lift, may I name my first-born after you?"

Sorry to hijack the thread a bit but this is one of the things that I heard in the course of working at the Harvard Business School fitness center the past year and a half.

I overheard the following conversation: in response to someone saying "That's why this town doesn't like HBS students" another student proclaims: "It's OK, we'll own all of them in the future anyways". Oh the arrogance.

Yeah, I second that. It's usually said during the '2 man bench press'. You know - where 1 guy is doing partial rep bench presses and the other guy is doing upright rows. :confused:

"Get your ass back like Kevin Bacon!"* **


*Reference to the movie Where the Truth Lies, in which Kevin Bacon gets railed by a dude that catches him in the act with a chick in his hotel room.


**No homo.

Don't get too many "bro's". People around these parts say "brah". As in "you gotta do your barbell curls brah." And "that's all you brah."

One I get asked all the time, especially by the old guys, is "that doesn't hurt your back?" My reply is usually "a little."

[Squatson]

In a funny Flight of the Concords scene their manager says, "How much do you press?" But makes a curling motion.

In my gym the other day I saw one douchebag call another douchebag a douchebag. This happens often.
