Today was chest and bicep day, the reason for this is to avoid the usual Monday chest day rush. It is very curious to see that every Monday in every gym I've ever been in is everybody's chest day. Also at the gym if you follow a schedule the you see the same people. Today was no exception, as I generally go later in the day there was mostly guys in the gym, maybe a 7:3 ratio to the number of girls. There was a few new faces but the vast majority are the same as. Also some tend to work out in pairs or groups, mostly these are same gender pairs or groups with a few exceptions. The gym is all about routine, peoples actions, conversations and even mood and attitude are the same. One thing that I notice is that there are usually 3 types of lifters, 1rst type are the stereotypical jock lifters, these people dont talk to anyone and keep to themselves, are very focused individuals. The second kind is the middle of the road, these lifters are serious but will hold conversations with others and have more fun with their lift than the 1rst type. The 3rd type are the not serious lifters, they come to the gym to socialize and are often the loudest and usually involve a larger group of people.
As usual today most of the conversation was very low key, many people were talking about grades and tests as it is midterm week. Also many are tired from studying and long class hours. General mood of the gym is pretty low right now, many people are running on fumes.
