    I'm very annoyed by the idiots that take there phones not just to the gym....but they are on a damn machine NOT working out, but texting and taking up the machine! What completely rude *kitten* morons. If your gonna text, go somewhere else please and don't take up a machine. You think you're cool while using your phone in he gym. Nope, you look like an idiot! If you are there to workout, then do so. Working your thumbs is no true workout. :s That's #1 gym pet peeve. Don't let me catch you doing it.

    Some people use lifting apps to record their lifts in between sets. How do you know they are texting?
    Also, when lifting heavy is not uncommon to rest for 2-3 mins. What do you care what they do during their rest time?

    I have seen them sitting there for 5 or 10 minutes entering something...It doesn't take that long to record their lifts. Also seen them talking on the phone. And taking selfied....I personally don't care what they do during their rest time...just don't take up a machine that someone is waiting to use...That is rude and immature. And then they get upset if you ask them if they are finished. WTF is that about? Just rude, self-centred and immature.

    I log my sets/reps in an app. Easier for me to keep track off.

    The girls that have a full face of makeup and their hair down....
  • People who don’t sanitize the equipment after using it. GROSS!

    Also, people who don’t know how to properly dress for the gym and you wind up seeing things you cannot unsee.

    Nonstop talkers. I can barely think when huffing and puffing let alone form words.

    The sweaty, stinky, protein fart people (yes that includes females too) Not only do you grunt so loud I can hear it over my music but the wind you rip is gross and seriously turn up in clean gym gear at least.

    True story: I’m doing some cardio on the machines, happen to look over...this dude is on the seated rear delt row, literally reading the entire Sunday paper. He had the unread section on one side and the messy, read side on the other side of him. I guess he was multitasking, although there was no exercising going on.

    Old man half dressed if that, getting malodorous perspiration all over the equipment. Also with the attitude they look good - strutting around as if posing.
