    A very chatty gym partner!

    I agree. That's why I workout alone. Unless the other person brings their headphone for their music. I rather be 100% focused.
    Unless it's one of those workout DVD, then I don't mind doing it with someone for motivation.

    When your super cute little 100lbs soaking wet friend asks to come to the gym with you and gets bored..
    or Goes forever on the elliptical and asks why you can't breathe past the half hour mark.

    Did you stuff her in the trunk on your way home??!!!

    When there are tons of unused equipment and a person has to use the piece right next to me!!!
    Once It was midnight I was 1 of 2 people in the gym......and someone came to the treadmill right next to me......I was thinking what is this persons problem(Turns out it was my brother!!!) But I understand how that would be annoying

    Forgetting my Ipod..doesn't really ruin it, but it makes it feel like it's really dragging.

    My dogs, they think I'm playing:)

    ^^ This happens all the time when I am doing my resistance exercises in the evening.

    And when Micoach App can't find the GPS to track my run, know that I can run without it but love seeing the results at the end of my run!

    Dude, you have lost 142 pounds?!?!? Keep holding on if need be. That is AWESOME! Though, I'm not sure about either piece myself. The holding on or how it bothers someone else's workout.

    When my phone dies! I need my music to work out. Just listening to the sound of my heavy breathing stresses me out.

    Us too! Our dog brings her ball and jumps up on our legs while we are trying to exercise. It's cute but annoying at times. Then when we get on the floor to do crunches etc. she curls up next to me.

    Phone calls and wearing socks that slip down so my shoes rub or part of my foot is exposed in my shoe.

    When they play completely unmotivational music at the Y. Here, they set it to a radio station and you never know what you're going to get. I prefer active, upbeat music when I'm exercising, especially when I'm running because my feet will match the beat and carry me on at a good clip.

    Once, my iPod ran out of juice and whatever was playing on that radio was some sad, lovelorn song. It was such a buzzkill I actually just up and quit for the day.

    Oh, and sort of the opposite of the folks who get mad when folks don't wipe down the equipment- there's this woman at my gym that always sprays so much disinfectant around, you can't help but suck in big mouthfuls of it when you work out anywhere near her vicinity.

    This crazy burning itch all over my legs when I ran on the treadmill. I feel weird scratching but I know its just my skin adjusting to me going from the cold outside to the warmth inside.
