    Unfortunately, my spinning back kick is not that good.

    I know I'm gonna get in trouble for this, but he stole a GIRL's bar?! - BWAHAHAHAHA!

    That was exactly my sentiment.

    Yes it is grounds.

    That is why when I grab a spot or machine, I don't leave until I finish all my sets.

    Once I was setting up to use a treadmill, put two towels, a locker key, and a membership card on the display part, then walked away to get a drink of water and came back and someone was standing on it. And to make things worse, there were plenty of available treadmills. I came over said 'excuse me' and the guy realized it was taken. How dumb can you be.

    Ugh! *kitten* whooping indeed. Wish you would have given him one. I would have enjoyed this story more - lol - for you.

    Maybe he didn't know how to set it up himself and was lurking for hours, waiting for an opportunity to swoop in and use it. Sad sad man. You did him a favor. Good job! :-P I find people to be more tolerable when I make up melodramatic history for them.

    I think the stare-down was enough, since he obviously realized he did something wrong and apologized.

    Even better if he watched you do your thing afterward and saw that it was only your warm-up.

    At least he said sorry... but seriously!!

    When I do a video at home, I always set up everything, my waters, my tv, move furniture... create a big open space.

    For some silly reason my son thinks I made the room for him and his legos....

    lol my daughter was the same way, but now she goes "mommy are you doing your exercise with Jillian Michaels?" I say " yes" and she gets herself ready as well. Kids are so cute.

    Wow, haha! I have to say both sides could have been me. I would have been furious if it had happened to me. But I'm also a bit clueless sometimes so I could have easily walked on the platform, not seen your stuff and started out. But then, seeing as you've obviously been staring at him, he could have apologized sooner and asked if it's okay for him to finish.

    if you aint on it, its someone elses ;-)

    There is room for everyone between sets.

    The equipment is only yours when your lifting it

    IMHO

    He is lucky it was you and not me. I would have personally taken it as an insult and complained to the manager. It was like he was sending you a non-verbal that you shouldn't be lififing that weight, and that women should be serving men. Maybe I would have read to much into it, but I would have given him a whole lot more than the stink eye!!

    lol, I'm blind, I had to click on your profile pic to see if you were female, b/c I know he probably would not have attempted if you were a man. kick him in the baby maker:drinker: during the set if that happens again
