    Today at the gym there was a guy sitting at the bike taking a nap!!! I kid you not lol and you know what aside from finding this highly amusing I could care less. You pay for a membership do what you want to (within reason lol). Because I'm there doing me :) not worrying about you doing or 'not' doing you.

    I think I might know WHO THAT WAS! hahahah!:laugh:

    One of my friends used to go occasionally hungover and just fall asleep in the massage chair. I would wake her up when I was done working out :)

    I go to Planet Fitness; There is no judgement, and "You Belong". There's even a Lunk alarm. the only rule is don't be a lunk
    The ladies there get their beauty on as well as their fitness. .

    who cares about a gym. I don't go and I haven't gone in years and I can assure you that I'm still having the best training of my life at home for free! Going to the gym is just to socialize or show off. Just my opinion though. The only way I'd see myself going to the gym is if I was in an area where I wanted to do some deadlifting and no where could I fit a barbell at home and drop it on the ground without breaking something.

    Putting that aside. stop being one of those people that **** around at the gym. You are there to train. You want your results? go for it.

    Building up a collection of dumbbells, barbells, plates and a squat rack isn't exactly free. If I saved the $20 I spent on my gym membership every month it would take me almost 21 years to save enough for all the equipment I need.

    My bff bought me a membership for Christmas, so that's my gym for the next year. It's actually not as bad as everyone was making it out to be. I can deadlift without getting kicked out! :drinker:

    ETA I just wanted to clarify that I wasn't referring to your comment about Planet Fitness with this gif, but this shirt would be funny to wear in the weight room. :smile:

    Because according to all the whiners I can't:

    *Wear deodorant to the gym
    *Wear perfume to the gym
    *Run on the treadmill next to you
    *Wear make up to the gym
    *Use my phone at the gym
    *Socialize at the gym

    Please add:
    *Can't hold onto the rails on the treadmill.
    *Wear a matching outfit.
    *Wear your hair down.
    *Look like you've done your hair up, especially for the gym.
    *Notice the hot chicks.
    *Make any noise when lifting weights.
    *Drop the weights.

    Also:

    *Don't run faster than me (that's showing off)
    *Don't go too slow (what are you, lazy, you should be at the gym to WORK)

    And:

    *Don't notice the hot chicks
    *Do notice me, though, because how could you help yourself?
    *Don't be a creeper
    *But it's okay if you're a creeper if you're hot

    -Make sure you work legs
    -Don't quarter squat or use light weight
    -Make sure you deadlift
    -Don't drop the weight or make noise with it
    -Always wear shoes
    -Don't wear shoes while squatting or deadlifting
    -If you are going to lift heavy make sure someone spots you
    -Don't ask me to spot you because I'm sure you are just hitting on me
    -You need to leave sweatty
    -Don't leave sweat on the equipment
    -I wish more women would lift
    -There are too many women in the weight lifting area

    Lol who cares. I go and work out and leave. I do feel kind of silly when I wear an outfit that is all "matchy matchy" though lol. I feel like people are going to think I planned it out that way so i would look cute.

    I want a gym where the girls all wear cute outfits, nice perfume, proper makeup, and prance around in the mirror while lifting heavy

    You should come to my gym then. That describes me to a T :)

    Definitely no muffin eating at the gym, especially while talking on your phone while walking too slow on the treadmill,

    Just don't ask me to work in while I'm doing my circuit with the bench, squat rack, and the lat pull-down.

    WHOA!! Hold on there......that's MY circuit.

    (Actually, that IS my circuit-- but I only do it when the equipment is free, I work fast, and I invite anyone nearby to work in if necessary. )

    As long as you don't take up the fast lane in the lap pool treading water and/or leaning on the wall, we good.

    What can you do at the gym?

    Willy Wonka:
    [Spoken]
    Hold your breath
    Make a wish
    Count to three

    [Sung]
    Come with me
    And you'll be
    In a world of
    Pure imagination
    Take a look
    And you'll see
    Into your imagination

    We'll begin
    With a spin
    Traveling in
    The world of my creation
    What we'll see
    Will defy
    Explanation

    If you want to view paradise
    Simply look around and view it
    Anything you want to, do it
    Wanta change the world?
    There's nothing
    To it

    There is no
    Life I know
    To compare with
    Pure imagination
    Living there
    You'll be free
    If you truly wish to be

    If you want to view paradise
    Simply look around and view it
    Anything you want to, do it
    Wanta change the world?
    There's nothing
