Going to the gym by yourself sucks man...

[Gonzo]

I go to the gym by myself the vast majority of the time...but there was a time where I worked out with someone near my level of intensity/weights. We challenged eachother to get better, and we could go to complete failure due to reliable spots. It gets lonely going by yourself I wish I had a partner, seriously.

My goal for 2016 is to make more friends at gym and possibly get a lifting partner. I've been going to the same gym for years, and I don't know anybody there, and I never talk about lifting other than on this board.

shyt gets lonely, man.

I hate talking to people while I'm in the gym
Working with other people usually slows me down or throws off my groove

Going by yourself >>>>>>

Crank that music and finish your set

 

[MoneyTron]

Nah, definitely don't agree. Put those headphones in and do work.

I personally like working out by myself.

but I know where youre coming from OP.
I think thats just a problem men in general have...the older we get, the more isolated our lives become (just work, family).

I had a dude spark up a convo w/ me one time at the gym...we were in the same industry and he gave me his number
...but I felt weird about it.
I didnt get those gay vibes from him

I love going by myself. Any of my friends that go with me slow me down, and get picky about what they do.

Put the music on ride out.

I love going by myself during night times, just your music and it's peaceful. But I do agree, having a partner can motivate you a little bit more.

 

[BobbyBooshay]

I enjoy training alone, doesnt bother me, im in the zone more when alone.

But agreed you cant beat having a crew with you, men like competition, competition enables you to get those gainz

Hell no OP


Working out with people definitely increases the intensity, but most guys talk to much and it kills the momentum.

Grab them headphones and get busy by myself

 

[BlueHeffner]

Disagree. When you have a partner you some times butt heads on what excercise or muscles you wanna train for that day. Also, a lot of times your partner may take too long between sets or talk to you and mess up your groove. Every now and then yea its cool to go with someone otherwise

I never really had a workout partner, so I don't really know otherwise. But I'm the type that I like to go in, handle business, and dip. My workout would take twice as long if I had someone else with me. As it is, I usually go to the gym around 10-10:30, and the joint is virtually empty at that time.
