....all those huge dudes flexing their muscles into the mirror and going "oh yeah, yeah, yeah"...it sounds awkward and you look silly...save it for home!
I totally agree with this one!0 -
I agree with kids not being in the gym part, but sometimes you have to drag your son into the women's locker room if the family one is full! Especially if he has to pee. I am not sending him in the men's locker room by himself!
Then you wouldn't mind if i walked in front of/ stood in front of your son buck *kitten* naked in the change room?:laugh:0 -
People taking the middle of three machines. :mad:
I am so curious what is annoying about this? Seriously, not being snarky here just perplexed! Do tell.
my thoughts exactly. They may like that machine better for a variety of reasons. I usually pick my machine (if I have the option) based on position to the fan (I like it blowing on me to help keep me somewhat cool).
exactly I personally dont like to be on the end, I guess I feel safe in the middle, hell who doesnt like to be in the middle, sounds like maybe you are mad cause they got the middle b4 you, hahahaha, just being funny here, cause that would irritate me too if I wanted the middle, go a bit earlier and you may be to be the lucky middle person...woohoooo0 -

Haha, in one part of the gym there are three bikes in a row, and so many times there is someone on the middle one. I go with a friend and we like to bike together, but we have to sit apart because of the person in the middle. It's like in a bathroom, you should take the outside stalls, not the middle.0 -
1.) people who talk too loud to another person on treadmills
2.) guys who think the shower is a good place to hock up lungers and spit.
3.) people who don't cover their mouth when they cough or sneeze.
4.) people who think they can use 2 machines at the same time.
5.) people who think a nautilus machine is a good place to sit and rest for a few minutes while others wait.
6.) people on cell phones

Yes I'm a girl, and I know how to use these free weights too. :happy:0 -
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.
Going to work out over lunch in my work's gym room... Yes, I'm wearing make-up. What's it to you?
I go to work out after work.....obviously I have my makeup still on. Do you want me to wash it off so I don't look like I'm wearing any at 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.
You must not have kids...

I can appreciate that a need is a need, but I've felt pretty violated before by unexpected male children in the adult locker room. If there's a family locker room that's child-friendly and an adult one that isn't, I choose the adult one, because I don't want to feel like a creep for being naked like I should be allowed to in a locker room. I really don't want to get naked in front of someone's 8 year old boy.
I know it's not as simple as just leaving your kids at home or whatever, but it makes me really uncomfortable to be confronted with other people's kids, particularly boys, when I'm naked.0 -
People who don't wipe down their equipment after using it! So, SO gross!
This I wipe mine down before and after...0 -
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.
I once saw someone eating on a treadmill and it made me laugh out loud - what was his point?? Seriously, the only time you have to grab a meal is DURING your workout? I mean, when training for a marathon I have sucked an energy gel on long runs but when I hop to the gym for an hour on the tread I don't bring a pot roast!
mmmmm pot roast!!!0 -

There is a Planet Fitness down the road, reapply when you've progressed past the basics.0 -
body odor. You're going to the gym...please put on a little deoderant!0

The creepy old pervert that just sits and leers at the women in the gym. Weirdo!0

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.
I think u r being a bit harsh about how people work out. Bravo to them for working out. They might be doing the best they can. Even if they aren't, powerwalking with no incline is 1 billion times better than sitting on the couch. I fear attitudes like yours might inspire fear of the gym for some people. I say, come get your workout on even if your workout isn't killer!0 -
Pedophiles.
My friend's friend's ex-stepdad is a known convicted sex offender... and I see him there almost every day. You have to be at least 13 to use the gym, so you'd think he wouldn't be allowed there because people under 18 are there as well. Sigh, it grosses me out to have to be in the same area as him. Yuck.0 -

As a diabetic, I actually had to stop my workout to eat (once) because my blood sugar was dropping. But, I did go outside because I thought the sound of me crunching an apple would annoy folks.0 -
Literally saw a woman on the treadmill the other day with a large McDonald's Coke in the cup holder...
My only thought was ... what is the point?? lol0 -

I don't picture you ever looking bummy lol, but that's just me.0 -
People who take up machines and space while talking on the phone, reading, etc, etc... and never working up a sweat.
I am not sure if you are talking about me or not. I usually read the whole time I am on a treadmill but I definitely work up a big sweat and get a great workout. Reading just helps pass the time.0 -

I wish my gym had a ban on people who jump on the treadmills and stand there and talk with the person next to them for 40 mins and dont use the machine!
This absolutely infuriates me!!! Especially when there are limited machines!! If you are not here to work.....GET OFF THE MACHINE AND GET OUT THE WAY!!! UGH! That really irritates me.....:noway: :grumble: :mad:0 -

If someone is on a treadmill not using it and I need one I will politely ask them to get off. However, if they are plenty of open treadmills and nobody is waiting I don't mind if someone chats with a friend. I am usually too busy working out to notice.0 -
