      wedgies, crotch sweat, water bottle holder YES!

      Also, when running on the indoor track and a line of ladies are walking at snail speed in a line across it and I have to run in slow motion for a minute before they hear me saying "behind you". Seriously, you are not the only people at the gym!!!

      LOL - this only substitute "cats" for dogs!!!!! :laugh:

      My pet peeves are:

      Same as another poster - the WiiFit going "ow" when you stand on it. What's that all about???
      Not standing on my resistance band properly so it flies up and smacks me in the chin :frown:
      When I'm cycling, the abuse I get from random motorists. Why?????
      Shorts that ride up in on the inside of your thighs when your jumping etc. So uncomfortable!

      I HATE when my shorts ride up! It almost looks like they're being eaten by your crotch. Ugh. I can't wait until I have some space between my thighs.

      My biggest...is bringing your tweens to the gym, and letting them run around. They have NO respect, and do NOT belong there!

      They're everywhere it seems...staring all judgy in the locker room, taking over the steam room, using the showers as a water park. Then, don't get me started on the machines. Taking up precious elliptical space, thinking it's a toy, jumping on in FLIP FLOPS and jeans? Where are your parents?!

      My other one is people using horrible form on weight machines. They jump on and go as fast as possible, then slam their weights down. Then they stare at YOU for going slowly enough to get a burn. This is not a speed competition, morons.

      The lady in the lane next to me in the pool that has a giant cloud of perfume around her - so gross I can even taste it in the air! Or the guy in the lane next to me who tries to race me. He swims one lap as fast as he can, then has to rest for 5 minutes. Then he will start again as I am turning off the wall and "race" me again. Whatever!!! :yawn:

      totaly agree on the whole bra thing. Oh and can I just say that the gym is a place to work out ladies , It is not a fashion show so quit parading around back and forth just waiting for the guy who is lifting weights to stop and speak to you ! Its so much fun to people watch in the gym. Oh my other pet peeve totaly not related to fitness is PULL THE SHOWER CURTAIN CLOSED WHEN YOU GET OUT !!!!!!!!!

      I'm with ya on the SHOWER CURTAIN thing! LOL

      Bladder and/or rectum malfunctions. I have MS and had two LARGE babies. When my intestines go numb from MS and my bladder doesn't even need a reason anymore - "engaging my core" becomes interesting.

      If I know I'm heading into some strenuous exercise I make sure I go potty first. :-/ Most of the time that helps. Needless to say there are MULTIPLE reasons I never want to join a gym. :-(
