This morning I went to the gym, per usual, and I was using the assisted pull-up machine, which is right next to a huge window that faces the street. So I’m going up and down, thinking about how buff I’m going to be one day, when all of a sudden, this body slams up against the outside of the window.
These two guys were totally beating up this other guy, right in front of me. At 7:15 in the morning. Luckily, a personal trainer ran out and scared them off. I’m pretty sure that he did this because I screamed. I don’t remember screaming, but knowing what I know about myself, I’m 99% sure that I did. At least I didn’t grab my head, which is what I do when there is a loud thunder and lightening strike.
Anyway, so yeah, I basically saved the guy’s life. With a little help from the personal trainer, who was clearly very brave because these guys were street toughs.
Oh, and:
You screamed.
No doubt about it.
oh my goodness! now that will get your blood going!
Man. That was our apartment at 4:30am on Saturday. HATES IT.
I love that episode of Seinfeld. Street toughs. I love it.
I would scream too. I always scream at everything.
I’m a screamer.
It’s okay sista. I understand you.
Yikes!! Talk about major excitement at the gym, haha :0)
haha good lord, this would only happen to you I think. nice work saving his life 😉
Wow lol that would make my day! i’m sure that made your early trip to the gym worth it.
Just curious do you eat a pre-workout snack and then breakfast after? Or do you only have the coffee that is pictured?
Whew… your morning was much more exciting than mine! I would have most likely fell off the machine if that were to happen to me, considering I get really scared and jump when things frighten me.
I definitely would have screamed and probably let go of the bars to leave me slamming down on the machine and unable to get back up quietly, causing even more of a stir in the gym and I’d be too embarrassed to go back for awhile…
Ditto to chandra.
Whoa… who starts fighting at 7:15 in the morning?! Crazy people..
also ditto to chandra.
Wow… Pretty scary!
Chris –
I know. I didn’t stand a chance of keeping quiet.
Karen –
For sure. I think I may have exceeded my maximum heart rate.
Ben –
Someone got in a fight?
Kristen –
I know, it’s hilarious. It was the first thing that popped into my head.
VG –
For real.
Anne –
Yes. He didn’t even thank me.
Lara –
I don’t eat before the gym, but I eat breakfast after. Usually egg whites and toast and a couple Morningstar links. I usually take a picture of the coffee because I drink it later, more as a mid-morning snack.
Brittany –
That’s how I am. I will practically stop drop and roll at the slightest noise.
Chandra, Kate, Anne –
I’m surprised I didn’t do that, actually. I didn’t even think about it until now.
Romina –
Street toughs, that’s who.
Aimee –
It was.
Yesterday, I was watching that clip, which is really a classic, and my boss walked in and said, “Seinfeld? It’s so not funny.”
So, now I think I have to quit my job.
I hope you have some work for me.
Jenny –
I am appalled. What is funny? Did you ask her that?
