Things that people do at the gym that really wind you up

There are so many that I probably don't have enough room!

> During classes, people who have no spacial awareness and get right in your space.
> Men lifting weights that grunt and groan really loud like they're constipated.
> People who breathe out unnecessarily loudly.
> Women who turn up in barely any clothing, a face full of make up and are who are clearly more interested in who is looking at them and not putting much work into their exercise.

What annoys you...

    Many things, but my biggest pet peeves have to be 1) people who don't sanitize the equipment (especially benches) and 2) men who throw dumb bells on the floor after one rep. If you can't put them down in a controlled manner, it might be time to consider a slightly lighter weight.

    Please note #2 does not refer to people using the massive (olympic) weights in the back of the weight room who are dropping the barbells onto mats/floor post clean & jerk. That section of the gym is designed for that. It's the people who drop dumb bells in the middle of the room that drive me bonkers!
