In 2015, Robert Oberst wrote and starred in Proper Gym Etiquette, a six minute comedy video directed by Charlie Rice. I would definitely like to show it to some of the guys at my gym.
Link to NSFW version
1. Keep the noise down! Don't you hate those loud grunts?
3. No food in the gym! Who wants to lift while sitting in someone's Dorito crumbs?
4. No curling in the squat bars! What if somebody is waiting to use the equipment properly?
5. No groups taking turns on a machine! A workout partner is fine, but wants to wait 20 minutes while four guys go through their sets?
The premise: If you see a breach of etiquette, you can call for The Monster (Robert), who grabs, throws, pummels, and yells at the offender. (The examples are all g-rated; I added the nudes to the NSFW version, and a few of my own rules).
1. Keep the noise down! Don't you hate those loud grunts?
2. Re-rack your weights! It's really annoying to have to rack somebody else's before you can put yours on.
