    I stare at a random point on the floor or wall in between sets...like totally lost in thought or something. People give me **** for it regularly.

    I also do this, but sometimes I realize that point has become inhabited by another person or is the reflection of another person. It probably creeps people out!

    I'm also this person. I also have kind of an angry expression when I lift so...yeah

    My plates must match...If I have a flat 10 lb. plate on one side I absolutely can not have the other side be a 10 lb-er that has the little holes in it.

    most definitely. and they must face the same way

    I honestly dont give a crap what people think of me at the gym. I'll watch The Big Bang Theory or some other show on the TV and litterally laugh out loud... get odd looks they look up and start laughin too so its all good. Or I'll sing along wtih my tunes and head bang while .. I figure its just an added neck workout lol. Screw it I'm there for me, you dont like my actions theres the door.

    I'm OCD like this as well. Even before I start to lift I even out the loads on the racks, just so its uniformed for when I increase decrease on the fly. If its off it screws me all kinds of up.

    I don't go to the gym, but I jog outside on a busy main street. Cars are one right after another for my entire jog. And sometimes I'll realize that I'm jogging and smiling really big (looking like an idiot) because the song I'm listening to makes me feel totally empowered! haha. Oh to be able to watch myself sometimes! :)
    This, when I was in high school cross country the team motto changed to "Run Happy" after the second or third photo of me was printed in the local newspaper, smiling like a fool.

    Also, I have been so into my music at the gym that one time I walked up to a treadmill and went to get on it not realizing the last person did not turn it to "stop". It was going at about 3.5 mph. I face planted it on the treadmill and then flailed about while trying to get away from the belt. Talk about embarrassing.

    I lip sing during cardio....especially intense intervals and when I am doing this I get REALLY into the songs. If it is an angry song, I have this hugely pissed off look and if it is a sad song, I look like I'm about to cry.

    Shake it Out by Florence + the Machine was getting me going yesterday.

    If I set a PR...I go out to my car and put on a fresh pair of shoes to reward my efforts.
