Default First time in commercial gym...experiences

I've been working out at home with a barbell set and bench for a few months but I recently got a membership to a local gym. It was awesome, lots of benches, racks, etc.

I finally found all those people that you guys talk about, like gym-rats, etc, etc.

Things that are starting to annoy me already...the 100 lb. dumbells are next to the 30 lb. ones :evil: NOBODY reracks the weights. There's 2 squat racks and one powerrack. Everybody does curls in the squat rack but I don't mind because I'm more comfortable squatting in a powerrack which no one uses.

I also noticed that my gym is mostly mesomorphs, pretty weird. I saw a guy doing curls with 30 lb. dumbells and was struggling yet his arms are around 17 inches or atleast look that big. Also, I saw another guy max out 135 on bench with only 6 reps yet his chest was competition level.:boink:

I'm the smallest/weakest one there but the only one with good form.
