Men and 'sex noises' in the gym

Why is there always one man in every gym who has to do this? I've been going to gyms for 25 years and there's always one alpha male who makes that disgusting groaann noise when lifting the heaviest barbell 🤮 Yes, we all know you're the world's strongest man but just exhale like everyone else Angry

Yeah it’s pathetic, and they’re always lifting quite light weights and throw them down really hard at the end

Also the guys who make the grunting noises while deadlifting then drop the bar at the top. It’s so pointless!

Is he the same one who drops the free weights from a massive height so they make a really loud bang (instead of putting them down in a controlled manner), then looks about to see how impressed everyone is? (No-one is)

I enjoy going over and lifting heavier than them (quietly) . they all tend to go a lot lighter than they make it sound

Haha women do this too though! There's a real grunter at my gym! The men are silent inc my OH

Definitely the same guy Grin I was two floors above the weights section today but could still hear the weights being dramatically dropped.
