What bothers you at the gym?

What I don't like is when I go to the gym and people look at your workout like you don't belong there. Yeah, I walk on the treadmill (I'm out of shape which is why I go to the gym (DUH), bad knees that swell when I run, and no sports bra in the world would keep the girls from bouncing which hurts) and I don't lift heavy weights because I can't but I have the same right to be there as you do. What may look like an easy workout to you may be all I can do at my level of fitness. I also don't like people who think they have any right to judge you on how long you are at the gym. Maybe 30 minutes is all the time I have between work, picking up kids, running kids to appointments and activities, housework, making dinner, etc. Better 30 minutes than 0. I also don't like it that my gym no longer has classes geared toward people who are just starting on the path to fitness. Gone are the more low impact classes like Zumba and yoga and every class has been replaced by ones described as "intense" and "high energy". Sorry, but those classes would probably give me a heart attack right now.
haha im pretty sure i get lots of crazy looks. I normally do classes, or else i get bored, i normally arrive 30 minutes early, so i can get my kids into the on site daycare, go to the locker room and get my stuff out of my bag, and then i normally do a warm up on the elliptical or treadmill anywhere from 5-15 minutes, depends on how long i have before class. Anyways, im sure i get crazy looks behind my back when i jump on, then 5 minutes later im wiping down jumping off it0 -
People that use the weight machines and set the weight to its highest weight right before getting off it. You're not fooling anybody
Really sweaty people who don't wipe down the benches after using them.
Chronic farters. If you are having a bad tummy, just stay home today.
People who bathe in their cologne (that applies outside the gym as well!) One day I had a farter and a cologne maniac right next to me. Worst combo ever.0 -
OMG! I would not have taken that so well. I would have slaped him across the face. and told him i can change the way i look but you can't change your personality. what a *kitten*!
I am sorry but that makes me so mad! it has never happend to me. but i don't care who you are or what your size is no one should be treated like that ever!
The thing i hate the most is this one girl who i went to school with she use to stare at me the whole time i would work out. she would not work out till i cute guy is walking near her. it's like why are you here?
and i don't like it when people just sit at a spot for ever and they are not using the weights any more. and your waiting. ugh! i don't go to the gym any more so i don't have to worry about that any more.0
