10 Ways to Be The Most Likeable Lifter In Your Gym

Training in the gym is fun for many people; we train hard and get bigger and better.

Unfortunately, many people don’t have respect or courtesy towards other gym members.

This post will go over tips on being the most likable lifter in your gym.

It isn’t complicated, but sooner than later, you will be liked by most people in your gym that will love seeing you every time.

Before starting this, I know people will get triggered and say this is not the optimal way to enjoy the gym and get results.

This article isn’t about what is best for you; it’s about how everyone can like you, remember that.

When You See Someone Out Of Shape Put Your Hoodie On

If you are wearing a tank top with veins popping and the vascularity dialed in and saw someone out of shape with low confidence, put your hoodie back on.

This will help the insecure beginner feel more at ease in the gym and not be intimidated by huge bodybuilders who have a better physique.

On top of that, you will look less impressive, making the fat beginner feel like he is not in that bad a shape.

Smile and greet everyone

A smile goes a long way, especially when it’s followed up with good morning.

A positive attitude towards others will make them like you, and you will be well respected and liked in your gym.

A small gesture like that goes a long way.

Rerack your weights

After you just deadlifted 500 pounds for reps and your lower back is screaming in pain, you must rerack the weights.

Even though you don’t feel like doing it, you have to rerack the damn weights.

When you rerack the weights, you will gain respect from others, and it will show that you aren’t a selfish lifter that only thinks about yourself.

When you see someone weak don’t mog them by lifting way heavier

If you see someone benching one plate in the bench press and you usually bench three plates, try not to mog them with your mind-blowing strength.

You may want to assert your dominance by lifting way heavier, but if you’re going to be liked by everyone, that’s not the approach.

Remember, the article is not about the optimal way to get results in the gym; it’s how everyone can like you.

If you want to be liked by everyone, you will have to lower your weight and pretend that you are weaker than you already are.

Wear Appropriate clothes

Don’t mog everyone in the gym in your singlet, instead wear t-shirts and hoodies.

That way, you won’t make someone feel insecure because they don’t have the same fantastic physique as you.

Then people will like you even more because you aren’t a show-off.

Clean Your Gym Equipment after use

If you sweat a lot during your workouts, a great way to show respect to others is to wipe the machines after use.

If you leave the equipment soaked in sweat after use, people will not like you.

Gym goers will appreciate the effort you show to keep the equipment clean, making you more liked in the gym.

Don’t try to impress the ladies by grunting loudly

Even though you might be a strong lifter and lift heavy regularly, don’t grunt loudly before your sets.

Grunting loudly will disturb some gym-goers, and even though some girls might be impressed, it’s better not to grunt if you want everyone to like you.

Don’t slam or drop the weights

Don’t act like a big shot in the gym by slamming or dropping the weights after your sets.

Even though you may assert dominance in the gym, doing so will disturb many people and make them feel insecure.

By lifting without making noise, you will earn the respect of everyday people in the gym.

If you slam the weights, people may be afraid of you.

Don’t flex your muscles in the mirror

Even though you may have the arm pump of your life in the gym, don’t flex in the mirror if you want to be liked by other people.

Your big juicy arms may intimidate someone who doesn’t have the same arms.

Others may look at you like you are cocky and trying to be a big shot in the gym.

Humble yourself down, and people will like that you aren’t bragging about your muscles.
