I was finishing up a set of squats when I step back and place the barbell back on the rack. Welp...I misjudged myself and left one side hanging so it totally crashed to the ground. Thankfully I did not injure myself or anyone but it was loud and people were staring at me.

I think I was sweating more due to my sheer embarrassment than the workout at the moment.

@samanthaluangphixay That's one of many reasons why squat racks should be setup so you back out with the weight and rerack stepping forward.

Not too much I can think of for myself, personally, except that I'm a chronically slow runner and I once collapsed, nauseated, and laid there sprawled out on the ground while everybody else kept powering through during a group plyometrics session with a trainer.

My husband's always tripping on the treadmill or wearing his shirts inside out. Good thing he's so cute I can easily overlook his shenanigans. My sister has big boobs and her overstuffed, overworked bra busted loose once during a very bouncy activity. That was the end of THAT workout.

well i thought i was clever doing slams with a weighted ball like we have done in circuits.
well most have used the wrong ball as it bounced really high and hit me in the nose.
not sure if someone saw and laughed but its not the end of the world

not exactly a high intensity work out but I was doing some gentle exercise on a pyjo call when 8 months pregnant. my highly intelligent cat decided it was the perfect thing to sharpen his claws on. the ball went bang. I crashed to the floor. my eldest daughter laughed so much she actually wet herself. cat looked a bit confused. I had a very sore bottom. but cat and baby were fine.

Hoooooooooo

My trainer tried to get me to do box jumps resulting in me falling backwards landing at his feet on my behind....
I couldn't sit down properly for about a week but at least he didn't laugh.

I tried to put a stability ball on a high rack - the only space left - and it bounced off the wall, sailed over a railing, and onto the main floor below the balcony I was on. Luckily it didn't hit anyone, but I thought one guy would kill himself laughing at me.

When I had a home gym I had a fart with a solid center on a max bench attempt. Fortunately it was just me and my training partner in the garage. Had a good laugh, cleaned up and finished the workout.

I wear loose sweats for comfort and I tie them once so I slip them on and off because I have hand issues that makes it hard to untie knots. When I'm on a cut, there comes a point they drop to ankle when squatting.
