    People glaring at my tattoos. It's nice to know I matter so much that I'm offensive :)

    I definitely love that, too.

    And I love seeing most of the staff members at my gym because they're soooo nice and encouraging, always smile at you, help you out without making you feel stupid, etc. It also makes everyone else there nicer, everyone's just greeting and smiling at each other. Such a huge difference to my old gym where everyone was always grumpy.

    ^^This! My gym peeps are really awesome too!

    And I love seeing people encourage one another-sometimes it's just a smile & a head nod, other times it's those people with enough gumption to come up & compliment someone's workout. Everyone can use encouragement!

    I love seeing people take their workout seriously! It doesn't matter what/how much you're doing, just the fact that you take your fitness seriously. We have a group of guys that come in every morning while I'm there that just goof off...as if work pays them an incentive to come to the gym (probably does), so they come just to say they were there. It shouldn't bother me bc it's none of my business, but it does.

    And I LOVE sweating like a mule on the Arc Trainer and the treadmill to my fabulous gym playlist!

    I like watching really big guys do yoga/pilates with the ladies. Shows you're not embarrassed, AND it's amusing :)

    I really like guys in zumba or any dance class! It's definitely fun watching them enjoying themselves dancing even if they have no rhythm. I like girls who use free weights as I love using free weights. I like friendly people who aren't afraid to come chat you up and encourage you.

    I LOVE how our gyms tredmills are set up directly above the weight section (which is massive and full of juice heads LOL) Talk about motivation, run another 5 miles and maybe you can someday have one.

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
    This is a double edged sword... Eye candy, but run all you want... your not catching them!

    1. A moderately filled gym- enough people to watch doing cardio to make the time go by faster but I dont have to wait for anything.

    2. Ladies lifting HEAVY... I have to say, even though ~I LOVE MEN~ there aren't many things in the world hotter then this.

    3. Equipment that is IN IT'S PLACE. Ready for use.

    1. Empty free weights area!
    2. Seeing more elderly people at the gym - I've seen an elderly lady (70+ years old) lifting some light weights in the free weights area - my heart melted! I hope I am like her when I am her age!
    3. I love walking into the gym and realising that those annoying groups of men that go to socialise rather than work-out are NOT there! :laugh:
    4. Staff members are willing to stop for a minute to have a short conversation - especially if it's FREE advise or tips!
    5. Hearing a great song on my iPod and getting completely into the zone!

    Empty free weights area is a massive plus

    Not that I use many, its just some of the people who seem to send a lot of time there are extremely ill mannered(dragged up)

    1. Men working on their back - especially if they are in a douchy ripped open tank.
    2. My husband doing deadlifts.
    3. Friendly staff - especially if they are puttering and cleaning when they dont really need to be, or if they do a set in order to help someone with their form.
    4. Clean machines.
    5. Emptiness - I work out at a local community center and it is ALWAYS full of teenagers. It just isn't big enough for ****ing around the free weights.
    6. My own progress! :) Love the huge mirrors - Is that a new visible muscle? Is that my hot *kitten*? Amazing!

    I get to see a bunch of sweaty soldiers working out. It's awesome that I can keep up with them. But the ultimate for me is seeing a soldier in prosthetics still keeping his/her head up and looking like a boss making those weights their beeootch!

    That's my muthafuggin motivation!
