    So many people here are bothered by things that don't even affect them directly (girls wearing makeup, people using machines on a low setting, guys checking themselves out).
    I don't understand why this bothers anybody :huh:

    **This is to the one who gets annoyed when others stand in front of her treadmill and chat***
    I forgot to hit QUOTE

    See, I don't think that is all that weird. I will only use one of two treadmills in our gym (and then only to run speed intervals or bad weather) and I will POUT mentally if anyone else is on them LOL because there are another 6 or 8 available. I like those two for the same reason... they are kind of in a corner and it is almost like being alone to zone out.

    The gym right by my work that had no showers. I would have loved to go in the morning or at lunch, but I'm not going to work without a shower first! The same gym closed, which also annoys me, because at least I was going after work!

    The spin class with the gourmet ice cream store out the window on the other side of the street. :sad:

    Do packs of runners pushing you off the sidewalk as they run past count if it's outside a gym?

    The guys who are there trying to look cool and "bust a sag" instead of lifting.

    People who are obviously judging me at the gym. Why let the little things like people wearing excess make-up or matchy work out clothes at a gym? Why let other peoples lacking work out bug you? You have a membership to do your thing, and they have a membership to do their thing. So long as you're not needlessly interrupting my work out, I don't care what you do, or what you wear. It's simply not my problem

    I run in a gym on a nice day because I can't handle the heat that well and I only run for 30 minutes, after I lift weights.

    People who wear too much cologne or perfume. Along with heat, most of it gives me a headache.

    I think the gym is one of the few places I'm not a judgmental b!tch, lol

    I get to the gym at about 6:45. There are literally 6 hairsprayed jersey shore wannabees( not as far as being fit, but the hideous hair and outfits) who walk over to the bench.

    I leave at 7:45 pm.

    All 6 jersey shore wannabees are STILL all standing around the bench watching ONE person do a set a time. Isn't there a more efficient way to do this?

    Let's hope that's all they were doing, otherwise they'll be there until I go tomorrow.

    Weird, middle-aged man who sat on a stationary bike while pedaling very slowly, if at all, staring at me the entire time I was there working out...............

    I don't care what people do,make up, no make up, waste their time, work it hard...UNLESS it effects me.

    1) Sitting on a machine I need to use, just relaxing.

    2) If you are a major sweater, DO NOT let your sweat fly off your body and hit other people, seriously? Wear more clothes, go to the doctor, your **** is messed up!!

    3) You can not use two machines at once, like leaving your towel at one and lifting at another...um no I'll remove your towel and get busy:)

    The guy at the gym who pretends to lift weights!
    There is a guy at my gym who I've seen a few times. He only wears sock (WTF?), sets up these ridiculously heavy weights for a dead lift, takes ten mins to get into position, lifts it 2 inches off the ground, drops it down, stands up and preens as if he just made the lift, then goes and hits on all the women.
    Like seriously, p*ss off and leave me alone! I'm here to workout, not hear how "strong" you are!
