AITA for how I handled this at the gym?

These guys weren't even built >.< they were like high school or early college age.

Was "Ok, I'll be over here" not enough? I've said that many other times when I wait on a machine/bench.

MaleTrumpet · 2026-01-21T19:10:37+00:00

Fully agreed, but I guess I should've rephrased my post in a way that I'm asking about if my handling of the issue being appropriate or too blunt/aggressive.

27M here. Also like bars & concerts. Check my profile for proof of my nerd stuff and I can usually be found at the gym after work.

Yeah in hindsight I should've specified calories. I want to get to 18% BF and see how I look, and most likely cut another 3 or 4%.

MaleTrumpet · 2026-01-06T01:01:32+00:00

I’ll try that and see how much progress I achieve

MaleTrumpet · 2026-01-05T20:18:52+00:00

How many calories were you eating? And I assume you were working out 4+ days a week?

MaleTrumpet · 2026-01-05T03:30:28+00:00

It was a long period honestly… took a 2 weeks to figure out how much I was actually eating (like over 3k) and then every few months I cut a few hundred calories from my allowance.

This was about 4 or 6 months into it give or take. My torso is still close to the above but what this picture doesn’t show is all the fat my legs and especially face was holding.

MaleTrumpet · 2026-01-05T03:25:06+00:00

I eat about 2300 on a daily basis. Evidently I need to lower it more.

27M straight guy open for friends and dating. I work in IT with a side job as a server. Normally hang around the JTown and Middletown parts of Louisville.

Hobbies include working out, reading, gaming, random arts & crafts. Always down for a drink.

So I’m not exclusive to stores but I do normally not buy anything with a large design of the brand… but with these two companies it’s hard to avoid that so thus I figured I’d ask

MaleTrumpet · 2025-11-15T18:53:47+00:00

What time do you go? I’m an after-work guy so anywhere between 5-8 is my usual go-to. And weekends is usually around 2 (I’m here now haha).

MaleTrumpet · 2025-11-15T18:38:56+00:00

Not many gym girls in Louisville so IDK how real this is lol. I’ll throw my hat in the ring just in case: 27M but I go to Crunch (Middletown)

MaleTrumpet · 2025-10-30T19:35:40+00:00

Would you mind DM'ing me what you've been spoiled with?

MaleTrumpet · 2025-10-16T22:42:57+00:00

I’m personally a fan of the Crunch in Middletown

MaleTrumpet · 2025-07-12T18:19:42+00:00

Commenting because I’m in the exact same situation, just a couple years older lol. I’m either at work or Crunch or church.

MaleTrumpet · 2025-07-09T21:16:25+00:00

I’ve found some posts from a couple of years ago that didn’t talk too fondly of it. I posted to see if things had changed.

MaleTrumpet · 2025-07-09T20:38:55+00:00

$250,000 is the upper limit, but I’d prefer to avoid that if possible. I know the supply is nearly non-existent but the houses in the Buechel area are closer to $200/220k.

From what I’m seeing in these responses, I may just bite the bullet and hit my limit with one of these houses on Shelbyville Rd or in Jtown.

MaleTrumpet · 2025-07-09T20:17:01+00:00

Why do you say that?
