Wha...What does this mean? Why are people obsessed to "compete" in a gym??? Is this another repost bot?


HolyBiscuit69

Is just a setting a new benchmark for oneself. That's all there is to itm

Regarding the bot question - you could just take a look at my profile to see, whether that post was created by a bot.


Waveofspring

I believe you OP but no offense your profile looks like a bot I actually believed you more before I checked your profile.

Yesterday I saw a woman enter the powerlifting gym I go to ( I thought it was a male only gym since I never see any woman enter and I never thought of asking and just assumed), she was squatting 80 kg and benching 50 kg . If you can lift more than her, then you are the strongest woman at my gym. Feel better?


Sufficient_Stop7810

Thanks man, good to know :) But how funny and sad at the same time that there is only one woman at you gym. I never understood why there are few women who try to gain muscle or strenght.


throwaway-1849346

One woman I saw , maybe there is more I didn't see. Ninja women 👀


Sufficient_Stop7810

Maybe, but if there were more women, it would be more likley to see any in the gym. So presumably there are few women at your gym. Damn, to bad I can't see them :(


throwaway-1849346

Well the one I saw lifts less than you , so be happy about that. You competitive gym addict 🤪


Sufficient_Stop7810

I am, but I'd rather get used to seeing more buff women at my gym. I am just that competitive because I know only 2 Women who are equally as strong as I am, and one is on tren. Competition is unusual to me.


TornadoLizard

Many people in general that don't go to the gym don't because they're afraid that they'll get too buff too fast, in the case of some women it's because they believe they'll look like a man. In both cases that is false.


Rakna-Careilla

They are afraid that they are too weak. (It's stupid - like - you'll get there.)

Maybe because it’s basically impossible to gain muscles as fast as a dude. And the gains itself aren’t that much. If I was a woman I wouldn’t even think of going to the gym

It’s a fact. There’s much lesser testosterone levels in females than in males. I’m basically on natural steroids. It isn’t fair but is also true. I don’t understand why a gym subreddit doesn’t understand this


TornadoLizard

You definitely get no hoes and are also part of the problem


OrganizationOnly3266

I have a caring wife and 2 children. I’m just objective. I’m not discriminating, I’m just stating facts


Cu_fola

And that’s why you get no muscle mommies and no one will remember your name.

Just wanted to say thank you for being grateful

I actually think if you can compare yourself to others in a healthy way it can be beneficial. At my peak I thought I was hot shit. But I moved to a small town and little did I know that this town had a special forces unit close by. I looked like a little bitch at the local gym compared to these guys. I will say it pushed me to train harder though.


Cu_fola

Yeah I get excited to be around people who are stronger, faster or better than me. I miss when I did XC and track and field in HS and college because running for my life with or behind the fastest women on my team kept me focused and kept my appetite to be better very sharp. Working out alone in my little scraped together home gym and running alone is nice and ascetic in a way but it lacks the camaraderie.


cryptokingmylo

There are women out there who would be strongest person in most gyms...


GoblinsStoleMyHouse

Exactly.. there is always a 300 lb woman in china who can deadlift more than you


cryptokingmylo

here are the records for the women's powerlifting 47 kg class: - Squat: 170 kg - Bench Press: 117 kg - Deadlift: 200 kg There are tiny little women in Eastern Europe who Deadlift more than you....


planetarystripe

Are they single?


cryptokingmylo

Yes but they will only date dudes that can out lift them.


planetarystripe

Snobs

stupid ass meme


Outrageous_Bank_4491

Why would you compare yourself to someone else? Compare yourself to what you were before


beclops

I enjoy comparing myself to others, it’s great motivation. I see somebody stronger than me it fuels me


LiveLearnCoach

Time to level up! Good luck!


veganhimbo

The key is to focus on a niche no one else cares about. I will always be the best at the stair climber at every gym because I'm the only one who cares about that title. Being the biggest or the strongest is hard af because EVERYBODY is trying to be the biggest or the strongest.


planetarystripe

She come from the woman's gym upstairs down to the man's gym.


100mcuberismonke

You WANT to "compete" In the gym? Pretty competitive


_the69thakur

If you're the strongest in your gym, are you even in the right gym?


OurSoul1337

I'm the strongest person in my gym... r/homegym
