Yep, Gotta be farting for me. Especially when training legs. Using the leg curl machine for hamstrings will always do it. I will look around me first and see if everybody is wearing headphones. If so, not so bad.0

This guy was new to the gym and while I was on the Elliptical I noticed he couldn't figure out how to use the programs. I was kind enough to show him.. about 10 min later HE farted and the girl on the other Elliptical next to me thought it was me. The guy really needed to lay off the eggs some. I had to immediately find another machine to use cause it stunk so bad!0

Not a gym moment, but during a 1/2 marathon my nephew handed me a GU packet whcih I threw in my pocket. 200 yard later was the turn around and I got anouther GU packet from him on the return. What I didn't know is the GU packs were open and they leaked into my pockets. When I grabbed them I had GU all over my hands. I can tell you GU is nasty running down you legs for 6 miles.0

I recently switched gyms to one located closer to my home. My very first day there, I completed my workout and, because I turn into a hot, sweaty mess the moment I even look at any cardio equipment, hit the shower. I saw that the handicapped shower stall had a flip down bench attached to the wall and thought "great, can sit while I shave my legs" ( and yes I shave at the gym, I take 6 out of 7 showers a week there). I'm doing my thing and the next thing you know I am in a heap on the floor covered with the shower curtain- which I had pulled down along with the shower rod when the shower bench pulled completely out of the wall and collapsed under me. I know I'mnot the thinnest mint in the box but since losing 260 lbs I thought my chair breaking days were behind me, lol. There was one other lady in the locker room and she came running over to see if I was ok - and hand me my towel.0

#2 Oh and one time i was on the treadmill working really hard. i'm kind of big-boobed (ok i'm pretty well endowed) and i was running really hard. I had this new lululemon top that I had just got and I was feeling so hot in my awesome workout wear and racing like a rockstar on the treadmill
well about 3/4 of the way into my run i noticed a good looking guy glancing over my way. i was tryign to play it cool and pretend not to notice...about 5 mins later the gym manager came over and told me my shirt was so low i was showing bits of nipple when i ran!!!!!
that hot guy i thought was checking me out, was really just watching me flash him with every other step. MORTIFYING

wrong changeroom, and the men's bball team had just finished their workout.0 -
I normally work out at home, or by myself running. So no one cares what I say or sing, or yell. But in the winter I head into the gym, and this year as I was running my sprints on the treadmill, I hit my highest minute per mile ever and so I just yelled "F*** YEAH mother F***ER!!!" it was loud...REALLY loud....and did I mention the 80 year old woman next to me walking daintily along nearly lost her balance and fell....
Yup...might need to ball gag it at the gym from now on.0 -
I've stumbled and been fired off the back of a treadmill where I landed in an ungainly heap. Now THAT is embarassing!
OMG! That is very embarrassing. I know from experience. Not once, but twice I've been at the gym jogging on the treadmill on a Sunday afternoon when I got a little too into what was on tv (both on Sunday afternoon's, once watching football and once watching nascar) and actually stopped jogging completely and got slammed off the back and into the wall. My father was there both times, and luckily he was the only person who saw. He laughed so hard that he nearly fell of his treadmill both times too though. That would have been sweet justice.0 -
I ran five miles on a treadmill and didn't know I started my period. I went to do floor exercises and saw what happened.... In my baby blue running shorts!!!!!!!!!!!!! I never wanted to come back again.0

Boners. Spontaneous boners. Sooo embarrasing.
Wouldn't be a problem if you stayed out of her yoga classes VVVI was in a yoga classes and we were doing modified donkey kicks where you kick both legs up into the air at the same time and support your body weight on your hands... I'm thinking, this is easy, no worries... I get about 3 kicks in and my boobs popped right outta my sports bra and tank top.
Needless to say I invested in a tighter sports bra... and a T-shirt.
hahahahahaha!0 -
When I first started attending the studio classes at my gym one of the classes I attended was a circuit training session and one of the exercises called for me to sit bouncing on an exercise ball while pushing my pelvic bone forward mid-bounce to move myself & the ball across the room, going back and forth... Well I made it about 3 quarters of the way (thoroughly impressed with my pace and the fact that it looked like a lot of the other people were struggling) when my dang exercise ball suddenly burst and I land flat on my butt, leaving me thoroughly embarrassed!0

The council gym I went to every week was decorating the downstairs changing rooms, so I was asked to use the upstairs ones, where I'd never been before.
Downstairs it was mens first, then ladies. (You're ahead of me already) Yes, upstairs the plan was reversed, but on auto pilot I didn't notice, went in and started changing. Then looked in the mirror, which reflected to the showers, and thought
"that doesn't look like a very female bum!"
It dawned on me, I quickly got dressed again and did a runner before the guy in the shower turned round. I got away with it ...0 -
I workout at military gyms and this particular gym let the snowbirds workout it was a busy Saturday and this rather old gentleman wouldn't let me finish my workout but was screaming at me and got on the treadmill with me and was trying to stop it because with the 5 min cooldown i went over the 30 min time period. Not only was I mortified but i could have been hurt as well. The Trainer that was there tried to get me banned but my doctor and a ton of other witnesses had my back and i was tramautized for months!!! ok not embarrasing gym moment but traumatizing for sure!!!!!0

My first Zumba class. So uncoordinated, and all grace went out the window.
Lots of fun, though.0 -
Holy s**t - these are some damn funny stories. I have tears pouring out of my eyes from laughter. Thanks everyone - I needed this afternoon pick-me-up!
I farted while doing abs with my trainer. Thank god I had my eyes closed.0 -
I was running on the treadmill, flailed my arms like an idiot, caught the headphone wire and pinged my iPod halfway across the gym.
I had to smack the emergency stop, walk ALL THE WAY to the other side of the room and pick it up )"=0 -

EMBARRASSING STORY ALERT!!!
you wanna laugh? haha ok, here is MY embarrassing story.. get ready..
So i was taking a spinning class... it was my second class at this gym and im really getting into it. Like im feeling great, im going to the beat and following the instructor. It wasnt until i caught i glimpse at myself in the mirror and said to my self. OMG I AM LOOKING GREAT, LOOK AT THOSE CURVES COMING IN... WOW!! As i was thinking this i wasn't paying much attention to my muscle contractions and BOOM! While we were in the standing up climb position, my legs descided to get fatigued and gave way to my upper body and i was trapped in between the bike seat and the handle bars, HAHAHAHAHA! Just imagine a plumper girl literally stuck between the spin bike with her feet still in the straps and her upper arms still holding the handle bars! HAHAHA! OH and the kicker.... no one stopped to help me.... it wasnt until the endd of class that someone asked if i was ok...... HOW EMBARRASSINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG! lol :laugh:0 -
Bench press, no spot - pinned. 2 ridiculously hot girls lift it off of me. Promptly handed in man card. Drive an extra 5 miles to go to a different Y.0

Was at a small town gym, only had about 6 cardio machines. A younger gal was running on a treadmill, I would guess in the 7mph range. There was a lady who came in to clean and she was running a vacuum sweeper. I didn't see where she plugged it into, but it was the same outlet as the girl running. Most quality vacuum sweepers pull the full capacity of a normal circut, so the second she turned on the vacuum it blew the breaker. The girls tradmill stopped instantly, and she went over the front end. She was basically doing a hand stand in front of the treadmill when she stopped. Amazingly she wasn't hurt, but from then on I always pay attention to the power supply if im going to be on a treadmill.0

I'm a rather busty girl (uk H cup) and I made the mistake of going to aqua aerobics in a "normal" swimming costume!
Well I went for it as always, and one of the girls escaped! Ha Ha Ha!!!
Alls good now, I've got costumes with bras built in! And they've been behaving since!

Last summer I was running on the treadmill and I closed my eyes for just a second to try and help slow my breathing down. The next think I knew I was falling backwards and landed up against the fan on the floor. I don't remember hitting my shin, but I did because I had a big knot and black and blue all the way to my toes. Thank goodness no one was down there to see me!0

I was doing jump rope at the gym one day as a part of our circuit. It's not a huge gym, but it's big enough since it's ONLY a circuit training gym, but anyway, I got too close to a pot plant against the back wall and took a few leaves off it while I was skipping.... :blushing: Needless to say that was the last time I ever did THAT! :grumble:0

Firstly I have to say, I use my phone to listen to music (with headphones attached).
1.) Bringing hand weights to use while on the elliptical - but they snagged my headphones cord and yanked my phone out of the holder to the ground, where the case popped off and the battery flew out.
2.) Once again, snagging my headphones cord (this time without a weight - I did it myself), ripping it out of the phone, so my music began blasting. (I listen to strange music, so it was like... Japanese choral music from a show I watch, hahaha)0 -
These are great! I just started a few weeks ago at the gym so I don't have anything yet but I'm sure I will and I promise to share.0

While working out with a trainer, attempting to do a pull up, I slipped and fell flat on my face.0

OMG my husband and kids came running to see what in the world I'm howling at! I can totally see this happening! I'm still giggling!
I tooted doing squats with my trainer! Loudly...thank god it wasn't stinky too!0 -

Oh man, I use my phone for music too. I keep my phone on the little tray on the treadmill and I'll be jogging and my hand will yank to cord, pulling my phone off the tray and onto the swiftly moving treadmill, which hurdles it across the gym at mind blowing speed. LOL That sucks. I need one of those arm band thingys.0 -
Well I'm sure I'm not the 1st one to post this type of experience but I was thrown off a treadmill. I used to go to this 24 hour fitness in Pasadena, CA. This place is a dump. It’s basically in the basement of an old building. Everything is hodge podge with 3 levels of gym area to navigate through. Well the very top level is where the treadmills are. It was summertime and the A/C didn’t reach this part of the gym that well so they mount industrial sized fans to the back walls to blow on the members while working out. Well I began my morning run and I was a mile into when I realized I was sweating like a pig, which wasn’t normal. I glanced over and noticed the fans weren’t on. Well my “smart” *kitten* jumped off….leaving the treadmill on at 8mph… went to the back wall to plug in the fan and position it towards me. Well on my way back to my treadmill, my dumb *kitten* just stepped on the darn thing as it was going full speed…. And that’s where the fun ensued. I’m talking eating *kitten* like no other. It immediately whipped my legs from under me so now I’m falling face first into the spinning belt, so naturally I brace myself with my hands. But of course once my hands hit the belt, it whips me onto my back. And I swear, it’s like the machine was just waiting to get me in the right position onto my back so it can literally throw me head first into the wall behind me. As I laid there on my back, I was cracking up laughing. I looked over at the other people around and no one came to help nor asked if I was ok. They all didn’t want to make eye contact. So I of course get up with all my pride and get back on the thing, with raw abrasions on my legs and arms where the skin was ripped off…. And finish my 5k. When I was done…I went to the manager to see if there were any cameras in the area. Unfortunately there wasn’t because I so wanted to get a copy and send it to Tosh.O0

Sorry for laughing but oh DAMN that was a hilarious vision!0
