Just went to the gym put my headphones on and found out that someone(Prob 1 of my 2 kids) removed the earbuds from headphones. Name some unexpected stuff that ruins your workout
Another one for me is forgetting to wear a hat!!

    I always tell people if you are coming to the gym with me bring your headphones, because I don't talk and run

    Don't talk to me when I'm on the elliptical, but you can when I'm strength training. :smile:

    When I forget something like my head phones.. I can still get a decent work out.. just no cardio after lifting. Forgetting gloves doesn't really bother me. I hate when high schoolers swarm equipment and don't put things back.

    I had my first gym/workout annoyance today! A dude hopped on a tread right next to me and proceeded to run using the bars to prop himself up. He ran for about 10 minutes then walked for about 6... running almost the WHOLE time using the side rails to hold himself up.

    obnoxious.

    Forgetting to charge my iPod. That's why I carry 3 mp3 players in my backpack. One is bound to be charged.

    Forgetting my ipod/music. Or showing up to a zumba/whatever class and finding out your instructor couldn't make it and got a sub who sucks
