What is the most annoying gym problem you have? For me, it's having to carry my huge duffle around plus my work bag on gym days.

    Smells like farts and b.o. so I decided not to go for nine months.

    Coldness and darkness is the most annoying for me.

    I need to restructure my routine and exercise space.

    I sweat so much there’s no way I could do it. Since I mainly used the gym for cardio, makes more sense to work out at home or outside where there aren’t any people around. In theory. In reality I’ve gained a ton of weight and am super out of shape.

    When I'm at the top of a deadlift and the dog suddenly decides to hang out at my feet.

    I have to yell at her because I can't stay like that forever waiting for her to move. And then I feel like a mean Mama.

    However the ultimate solution was to put new flooring in the basement which she hates so she never hangs out down there any more.

    My cat likes to snuggle by climbing onto my chest in the middle of a bench press. It doesn't work out so well for either of us.

    When I was going to the gym...

    the most annoying thing was having people rudely stand in front of me, watching, and waiting for me to finish so that they could use the machine. Made me feel rushed.

    Imo that’s the best time to do curls in the squat rack

    Turn up the music, stare them in the eyes and go slower. Or just do what Caco said.

    For me though, people not organizing or putting the weights back where they got them. Gets old fast when trying to look for specific things.

    Darn right

    It was a couple of weeks ago and I went to the gym late, late on a Sunday; like an hour or so before closing.

    The place was darn near empty and I was lifting in the back of the building with nobody within 75 feet of me

    I took off the mask and hopped on the bench and starting lifting.

    It was glorious

    It was magical

    I was actually lifting and breathing

    It felt like 2017 all over again

    The roof suddenly opened and light appeared

    It looked a lot like this:
