What annoys you about others at the gym?

Options
I get aggrivated with this certain female at the gym. This girl flaunts around and I swear I NEVER see her hit a machine. I think she is there on a man hunt but she gets in my damn way when I work out.

    ugh that is the worst...there are a couple of chicks at my gym who i just cant stand...and then there are a few who dont follow the 30 min rule when people are waiting for certain machines and if u ask them to jump on or how much longer they have they just ignore you..can't stand it!! Another pet peeve is when people dont wipe down equipment..especially after they sweat all over it! nasty!

    The only thing that really gets to me is people who don't re-rack their ish when they are done.

    Yes it's very nasty! That girl at my gym leans against machines that I need and I have had to ask her to move so many times. She gives me the dirtiest looks ever now because I am down right rude to her. I swear she has only taken 1 class that I know of and other than that she sits around talking to different men all the time while leaning on the machines I need :(

    I prefer not to be hit on. And it WILL annoy me if somebody is at the squat rack for like 45 minutes when I do need to get there.

    Other than that I really don't care what people do at the gym.

    You do yours, I'll do mine.

    I have other things worth caring about. Such as who went home on The Biggest Loser last night and what Snookie & the baby are up to today.

    Ok, I hate it when people try to pick up others while at the gym! I roll out of bed at 4:45am, hit my machine around 5:10am. The last thing I want to deal with is someone hitting on me. At this point I havent even had my morning coffee.

    I also have to agree with the pet peeve when someone doesnt wipe down the machine when they are done. That to me is like not washing your hands after using the restroom. I mean the gym that I belong to has wipes all over the place. You are just rude if you dont.

    Ok, the last one....how about when 2 women havent seen each other in "ages" and need to catch up on each others life talking loud enough were you cant seem to turn up your music loud enough to drown them out or it happens on a day when you forget to bring your ipod/headphones. I mean really....I dont need to know all the gossip going on in your lifes/co-workers/neighbors, etc. I go to the gym to burn off fat and release my own stresses. It is one thing to talk quietly, but to broadcast your life for all to hear....no thank you!
