    I had packed my workout clothes after a wash day and they were a little damp. No big deal. Going to workout the next day. Well I did not go workout until a few days later and did not really notice the odor coming off my clothes but everybody around me did. =( I keep getting whiffs of funk but just put it off to people working out in a gym. That was until people keep looking at me and cleared the area around me. I finally grabbed a hand full of my top and took a nice long inhale and called it a day. It smelled like a dead rat!

    My wife was participating in a group training session while I happened to be on the elliptical nearby. At semi-regular intervals I would look over to see what they were doing far more than a casual glance occasionally if my wife and I made eye contact we would share an expression of exaggerated exhaustion or something similarly jovial... Anyway, eventually I realised that another young lady in the class had noticed my glances and made eye contact. I felt like running over and was smiling in return, I assumed she thought that she's caught me having an undue look at the group. I wanted to run over and explain "but, that's my wife". I felt like I'd broken some unwritten rule of the gym, not just a glance too long but crossing the line...

    That was far worse than any fart at the gym.

    Had a hole in the crotch of my excercises pants and was doing squats. Thank goodness I wear panties under them.

    I was on a treadmill beside this guy and my ipod came unattached from my arm and fell to the treadmill, but me being me, instead of stopping the treadmill and bending down to pick it up, I try and bend down to get it while the treadmill is still going. Basically resulting in me stumbling, trying to stay upright and then shocklingly not falling off. But getting back up to the guy beside me going, you almost gave me a heart attack and I am ready to crawl in a hole I am so embarrassed. So of course I just start laughing because all I can picture is this guy watching me looking like Kermit the Frog probably wondering how he got stuck beside the nut job! :p

    My Personal Trainer was helping me to stretch..
    So I'm standing and facing a wall with my arms over my head and he's holding my leg, pulling it up behind my back and raising it in the air wile his other hand is placed on my lower back. It was kinda hurting me but in a good way so I close my eyes, trying to relax into the stretch and let out a moan..

    As I do that.. his wife walks into the stretching area.. So I'm standing there... flat against a wall with him behind me, my leg high in the air, one hand raising it up, the other on my lower back pushing me down and me with my eyes cloased and moaning.
    Needless to say... He's not allowed to help me with my stretches anymore.
