Do you "compete" with the person next to you?

I know it can't be just me. Are you motivated to "out do" the person working out next to you?

I aways try to get on wieght and cardio machines next to people who seem to be kicking booty, then I try to out do them (and pretend that I'm not), invariably, they try to out do me (and also pretend that they are not).

It inspires me to work out harder.

Is it just me.
 
It's great to be men isn't it?!

I work out at home, alone, but if I did work out at a gym - I would compete. No doubt, it's a guy thing.
 
Sorry, RedT can't say I do.

First, since hardly anyone else ever deadlifts or squats, it's hard to compete.
Second, since I zone out on everyone else and zone in on myself, nope

I suppose there is one person I do compete with-myself.
 
ohh hell yes i compete with the dude next to me, and if hes stronger than we can settle it on the basketball court. if he beats me there... well screw him-he probably cheated anyways.
