    The idiot little a..hole who wears one of those hefty-bag wrestlers suits, then sweat pants, then windbreaker pants, windbreaker jacket, then hoodie, then weight vest. Cranks the speed and incline up to Max on the treadmill, proceeds to run on it, pass out, falls and hits his head.

    I'm the only other person in the gym. *sigh* Yay! (I used to be an EMT, I could see this from a mile away) Grab the gym phone and call the ambulance and then proceed to administer first aid as best I can to the smelly little snot.

    Only to have him come to and cop 'tude because I called 911. I mean how dare I! The nerve of me!


    Yeah, I see him come in and groan every time. He's seen me and turned around and left. The gym owner just laughed when he heard, especially when I'm being considered for the job of Gym Manager.

    On the treadmill and the undies start climbing up the crack 5 minutes in. Competition for the treadmills is stiff and I don't want to get off to fix the issue as I've only been on for a short while. Undies continue to creep and I start to look around to see how many people may see me adjust on the sly. And for some reason I chose a treadmill in front of the gym. The whole gym would see me wedgie pick. Undies are now firmly embedded in the crack with 10 minutes left before I have to get off and give somebody else a turn. Sweat starts rolling down my back and soaking into the undies. So now it's a damp, full on wedgie. No choices except risk permanent joining of undies and crack and finish my 20 minutes or quit half way, break my cardio stride and go mining for undies. Decide to go with "no pain, no gain" and tough it out until the 20 minute mark. Wrap it up and head to the bathroom to fix the issue and the undies are glued to me everywhere they touch because they're sweaty. And suddenly I have to pee too.

    that extremely pungent perfume old ladies wear. (probably due to their sense of smell declining?)

    Today I was swimming laps and an old lady came to swim. She was doused in o much perfume that I could taste it when I took a breath. My throat still hurts.

    As they age they lose their olfactory sense and they don't realize how strong it is.

    Poor dear ones.

    I was at the gym with my friend and this lady who was working out next to me passed gas. I thought I was gonna die. Sweet jesus, had tears in my eyes and everything. I had to move, it was nasty.

    Walking into the women's locker room at high noon. Hot vinegar smelling air smacks me right in the face.

    I was doing chest flies today … I'm trying for heavy lifting, so it was not an easy weight for me. And these guys were doing some sort of exercise where, apparently, they couldn't move over a foot. They were right there, almost in my personal space … close enough I was worried I was going to hit one of them as I did my exercise. :noway:

    Getting 5 minutes into an hour-long Zumba class when the Metamucil you put in your coffee 12 hours ago kicks in.

    jerking your earbuds out accidentally while in mid bench-press.

    Ha, seems like I've done this every time on the elliptical, I've knocked my phone off altogether more times than I can remember! Good thing I'm not easily embarrassed!

    Ripping off your callus on the first exercise (Deadlift) and then having to finish workout with raw hands on a pull day blood still dripping on the barbell and all. (I disinfect and wipe it off of course)

    ... being told dinner will be ready in 5 minutes when you have another 20 minutes workout to do.

    - the only one problem with working out at home!

    Dude, please tell me that you are not bleeding on public equipment...that is a biohazard, even if you wipe it off!

    Well I did, and it hurt like hell. I notified the staff about it and watched them disinfect and wipe it off. It only happens when I lift 4+ plates. My hands can usually manage anything below.

    Doing chest flies (again … I have bad luck with these, lol). My ipod is on my lap because I don't have a pocket today … and it slides down between my legs in a rather um, uncomfortable position & location :blushing:

    Still finished my set! :happy:
