    I wish my gym had a ban on...wearing makeup.

    I hate being the only bummy-looking bare-face girl there. :/ but at least I know my workout isn't going to cause me a breakout!

    I hear you, clearly you are not there to work out if you have that much make up on. The gym is not a place to meet a mate, you are there to exercise, and that doesn't look pretty if you do it right.

    People who sweat profusely and insist on wearing a skimpy tank top that doesn't absorb any of the sweat. I don't need to see drippy pits!

    I'm severely allergic to all fragrances & have passed out &/or had an asthma attack. A ban would have been nice but as it turned out I was the one who had to quit going to the gym.

    Children.... which to me is ANYONE under 18.... (well, I could make an exception here and there, but it would be a case by case basis).

    AND.... Mother's who have no freakin' sense and bring their 8 yr. old SON into the WOMEN'S locker room! There are FAMILY locker rooms just for this situation.

    ...On wearing a sports-bra as a top for women who have grab-able fat on their abdomen. There is 1 young girl who does this. Since she’s like 19 with a bellybutton ring I guess she feels she is hot stuff but her blubber literally has some overhang onto her pants, ewww! Keep it covered until you have something worthy to show off. It’s possible she weighed a lot more so now she is hot stuff compared to her former self but unless you keep a before photo tagged to your back all we see is gross squish, no thanks.

    Fill in the blank!

    (For me it's dudes who slam the weights down in the weight room)


    oh ya! I find that so rude.

    I have had them put a ban on eating food at the gym. Im allergic to bananas and I kept seeing the same guy walking on the treadmill eating a banana! WTH? I now have to worry about what this guy touched so I don't touch it? Im not deathly allergic, but I sure don't like looking like I was beat by a cheese grater.

    Exactly! Why do they wear makeup? I would feel so gross with sweat and makeup all over my face...gross.

    Going to work out over lunch in my work's gym room... Yes, I'm wearing make-up. What's it to you?

    people with VERY specific tastes in television programming. There is one guy at my gym at work who dominates the TV in one corner with Russian language programs. He kind looks ex-KGB, so I'll just watch the news on the other side of the gym.

    Spandex is bad enough on most people, but really - do you HAVE to tuck your shirt into your shiny (or is that shiney?) running tights, dude?? Looks like you have a diaper on under there.

    Teenage girls prancing around. I am pretty sure the only reason they are there is because they are waiting for a tanning bed

    I'd be bored if they banned everyone else. People do the funniest things, it makes the time go quicker watching them.

    I wish the gym would ban the staff from putting the music on so loud in the changing rooms. It's ridiculous, I run in and out of there as quickly as possible

    Completely agree! That's also why I work out extra hard so I can get the flushed face and hide all of the blotchy skin!

    That's absolutely not true. I go to the gym straight after work and do not take the time to take off my make-up. That doesn't mean I am not there to work out. I take pride in how I look, whether it be at the gym, grocery store, work, etc. I also think I look DAMN "pretty" when I work out, thank you very much. & I sweat A LOT.

    P.S. I also don't break out from wearing make-up to the gym. Let's try and remember that everyone is different.Thanks.

    I drop my weights when I deadlift. It's a waste of strength to set them down nicely.


    I wish mine banned....

    Mullets.

    Haha - this!

    And I also hate the grunting/moaning that sounds like you're getting pleasured. You know who you are... and everyone else knows what I mean.

    BAAAAAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA YES!

    exercise anorexics. I know it's a serious illness but it is hard to watch a skeletal girl kill herself on the elliptical for an hour.

    ^ This

    People who take up machines and space while talking on the phone, reading, etc, etc... and never working up a sweat.

    ^ and this too. And camel toes. :laugh:

    dipsh*ts hanging out in the weight room who are not lifting but are sitting on equipment talking or texting on their cellphones. I am so sick of the homeboys just hanging out where I workout....if you aren't there to sweat, GTFO!

    I wish my gym had a ban on................... women dousing themselves in body spray, hair spray, scented lotion, perfume, etc. Totally choked out last night getting back to my locker, walking through a veritable cloud of perfumigation.

    Was just about to post the same thing. I would rather smell your stink than your perfume, please.

    Ummm I would rather smell neither!! I almost choked with weights in my hands because some guy was so funky he should have had a green cloud around him to at least warn me.

    i hate it when skinny girls use equipment with blank looks on their face, it is like they aren't even trying to get a burn. or when big people use the treadmill and power walk with no incline, it is like honestly, put the incline up a little bit and you will burn so many more calories. ooh and highschool girls that have no clue what they are doing and just walk around flaunting their stuff.

    but i think my biggest irritant comes from the guys. you know the ones that are there everyday and only work out their upper body and arms and therefore looke insanely out of proportion and then glare at you because you are not as "in shape" as they are. seriously guys, you don't look good. try working out your back, not just your chest.

    Wet boots / shoes /feet. I followed a women in last night that left a trail of wet and dirty water behind her and I was in stocking feet because I was following the rules....and I hate it when guys come out of the shower and leave water in front of the lockers. Would it kill you to dry your feet?
