It's a long freaking list.

-supersetters
-people who wait ON the machines
-people who use weight machines like chairs and sit on them while texting, looking at Facebook, etc.
-people who move too slowly...get the heck out of the way!
-people who do not wipe off the weight machines, *especially* during cold/flu season
-people who work out while actively sick/contageous
-people who stand in the front in a dance fitness class when they can't keep up/have no idea what they are doing
-people with no musicality, timing or ability to count who try to take dance fitness classes
-people moving the wrong way in a group class...especially if they are doing this in my blind spot
-people who pretend to work out--move your kitten or go home
-pool staff who don't understand lap swimming
-people who PLAY in the lap lanes during lap swim time
-people who cut across lap lanes in the middle of the pool (so dangerous!)
-slow swimmers who think that they are fast
-people who play their music without headphones
-changing room slobs

Basically, people are the issue.

maybe you should exercise at home....geez!

Annoyance at gym: people that complain about being out of shape as they hit Wendy's after 5 mn on the TM. Other than that.....using the squat rack as your yoga mat.

For the most part, kudos for consistency. We all have to start somewhere.
