I've never heard one grunter in my time at the gym. However, I'm usually too preoccupied with the fine ladies. Planet fitness has some nice ladies. (Location specific though)

^ I tend to disagree... Theres a difference between a grunt or heavy breathing..... And being stupid, yelling, throwing weights around, etc...There are some people that go over the top. Theres no reason to drop and throw weights.. Makes you look like an idiot IMHO... That has nothing to do with intensity either. Being a powerlifter that has done this for 9 years, Ive NEVER gone screaming throwing **** around.. Not at competitions, in the gym, anything. Theres a difference between intensity, and an attention *****.

these two dudes were definitely trying for attention. The one guy brings his slightly out of shape friend just to try and make himself look better.
I'll groan a bit when I'm at the end of a set or really pushing it, but any serious weightlifter should be in control of their weights, not dropping them all over the place. And if you're going for weight that you're not sure you can fully control, get a spotter. If I see someone kinda drop a weight, you can tell if they did it on purpose. If it wasn't purposefully done, you see a super red face, veins and stress on the face, you can tell when someone has just had enough.

Never dropped the weight after a max lift deadlift.. My hands stays on that bar until its safely on the ground unless it literally falls out of my hands. Maybe its just me? but again.. there is a difference between dropping them, and throwing them around trying to be a B.A.

Yeah went through a divorce and significant weight gain! I've hired a personal trainer so I'm on my way to getting my strength back! But got to mentally buy in to lose the weight and get in shape! I only work out once a week and know that I've got to up it to at least three x's a week. But man is it hard to get myself motivated!!!
