Farting!

Farted on leg press today during a verry heavy set. 2 guys near me started to burst in to histerics......So I was like "guys do you even lift?" and they soon shut up.

Does this happen to any1 else? interested to get feed back from guys that go to proper BB gyms and also to the more "leasure" type of gyms, mines sort of in the middle of them both.

    It happens to us all. When you are straining to lift a weight things happen. Besides I have seen/heard worse lol. Sometimes this happens to me when I'm grappling in my jujitsu class too, we all burst out laughing.

    I struggle to not fart during ab work in boxing class. Often I fail but I find it adds a new dimension of muscle control training.

    I fart on the elliptical all the time. Short little bursts over and over in unison with my leg movements. My dogs look at me a little funny, but they don't laugh........

    I struggle to not fart during zumba at home. And there was one time where i was doing "jump, jive, and wail." and the entire time my farts were going along with the music. After it was done, i had one long one. Talk about :embarassed: but my husband thought it was hysterical.

    One time in kung fu class, we're all silent and sitting in horse stance. We're supposed to be concentrating on keeping our stance strong and firm and pushing our energy down through our feet into the ground, rooting us in place.

    Then, from the back of the class... a long, quiet fart breaks the silence.

    We all start snickering and the guy's face turns pink. But then our teacher says "Hey, don't laugh, that means he's doing it right." We all shut up and look at the teacher. He continues... "You're energy is going down, right? Where your energy goes, your stomach follows."

    And then we all had a new challenge. To fart in horse stance the most. Class got real interesting after that.

    If youre in the gym on leg day and feel it coming, waddle up to the cardio room and fart in there, try as they might they cant run away

    Youll be a guff terrorist

    Oh my gosh - I usually do ok during strength training, but when I go for a jog, watch out. I hate when I pass other people on the street. They probably wonder why I'm jogging so funny; it's because I'm trying to hold it in until they're out of earshot! This is not always successful. :D

    Last time I ran at my indoor track I was ripping 'em the whole time. Crop dusting.

    Last time on the treadmill, the poor girl next to me... if I was single I would have been embarrased. But I'm married, and that *kitten*'s funny!
  • lol @ not laughing with them

    Farts in the gym are a delicate subject especially when there's a girl on the treadmill next to you. In it wafts like a rotting corpse in the midday sun covered in sulphur with a hint of something like salami, something to get your nostrils round

    Desperately you try n look cool, if you say it wasn't you, it was you, if you flinch, it was you, if you change stride, wipe sweat, drink water it was you.

    I did none of that and she still looked at me like id curled one out in her cereal
  • Hah personally I think if some1 farts when doing a heavy lift then good on them! No doubt that they arnt putting max effort in. Wouldnt have minded the 2 guys having a little chuckle however their laugh and what they were saying was more in a mocking manner.

    Holding a fart while deadlifting/squatting or leg press is as easy as holding in a fart while climaxing :P

    ALWAYS on squats. The problem is that I have my music blaring, and when I rip it out, I am not really sure how loud it is!! So I just carefully look around to see if there are any giggles!

    ^^^ This...I'm sure they weren't making fun of you, farts are just funny. I personally can't contain myself when a good ripper cuts loose.
  • Now I have to say I am guilty of farting while working out all the time. I am atype 2 Diabetic. The medication I am on gives me gas and the diet does as well. I am also recovering from a major heart attack in Feb 2013. Now I am in the gym almost everyday and doing 1 hr of cardio and light lifting. I am a walking methane plant while at the gym. Good thing I get there at 4am and leave at 6, before most people get there.

    Sorry, but I can't help but ask, after 3 months since the last post, were you doing a search for "farting"??? Come on, 'fess up!

    PS - That's some major s*** recovering from a heart attack. I'm glad for you that it went in your favor. :flowerforyou:
