Annoying Gym Newbie was started on the bodybuilding.com misc forum on March 25th, 2012 by user "lightsarefallin." It quickly grew in popularity and ended up on memegenerator.net in a manner of hours with over 300 original entries.

This meme concerns the clueless gym newbie who is usually skinny, young, completely ignorant, and a douchebag. It addresses the many annoying things that this person will do, such as leaving weights lying around, doing exercises completely wrong, annoying other gym members, and generally abiding by a lifestyle of erroneous information and bro-science. The worst part is that the annoying gym newbie is arrogant and completely self-indulged. The annoying gym newbie spreads his cancer of idiocy thinking that he knows everything about training despite the fact that he has just started training himself. You might catch him "correcting" fellow gym members on how to properly do various exercises.

This meme is quickly growing in popularity, having made the front page of memebase just three days after its inception. It is essentially an outlet in which people can voice their frustrations about their own run-ins with the annoying gym newbie.
