*takes notes*
do wash vajayjay (from previous thread)
do NOT shower (from previous thread)
do NOT take selfies (from current thread)
do NOT wear push up bra (unsure what to do about the fact that it always LOOKS like I'm wearing a push up bra)
do NOT log times of workouts or amounts of weights on phone lest someone think I'm instagramming
do NOT be in the way of OP
do wash off mascara
do wear waterproof makeup
do NOT wear any make up
do go after work with no time to remove make up (must get job first)
do NOT look at anyone lifting anything
do look at men at the gym
do NOT look at women at the gym
Sounds legit.
Where is that people pleaser thread again?
ETA:
do NOT workout in Wisconsin
do NOT play Twisted Sister on MP3 Player
do not stand around ever because it's "rude" to polite people and forces them to post a post instead of saying "excuse me" to me.

Holy crap people totally missing the point of the OP....No one said you have to look like crap, no one said you have to wash off your makeup if you go to the gym after work...and to criticize the OP for noticing and saying SHE isnt working hard enough makes no sense at all! She was pretty much making fun of girls who use the gym as an excuse to look all cute and show off how cute and adorable they are...if you are going there to work hard, which Im assuming most of you are, then it ISNT ABOUT YOU!!! wow...0

inorite. i'm just glad in all the pages of replies nobody said I have to take off these douchy sunglasses cause my mascara's running. and also nobody said I have to stop pressing my butt on the wall because then I might have to wipe it down. (I just hope no one comes in here with any re-rack complaints about my dumbbells.)0 -
I usually don't wear any make up at the gym but lots of my zumba friends do and also take millions of pictures for facebook...most of the time I don't join their photo shoot lol they convince me once in a while though. I am not against it, it's a way to see your progress sometime cause they have nice big mirrors.0

Roid day today. Everyone are just being angry and mean.0

Hey, OP! I wear makeup to the gym. I like to wear cute gym clothes too, and I take gym selfies.
I also lift heavy *kitten* weights six days a week.
All of the above makes ME FEEL GOOD, and I couldn't give a damn what you or anyone else thinks about it.
So keep being stressed about it0 -
I think I'm going to buy some lipstick and mascara and wear it tonight while I'm lifting :flowerforyou:
My profile pic is what I should look like when I'm finished, according to you? :laugh:0 -
As long as they aren't taking up space others would otherwise be using to workout while taking pictures of themselves, I don't care what other gym goers are wearing or if they are taking pictures of themselves. If taking a picture of herself in the gym motivates her, for whatever reason, not my problem. As long as I'm not in the shot. :flowerforyou:0

Who has time to care about what other people LOOK LIKE in the gym? The only time I'm looking at other people is to see if they're doing anything I want to incorporate into my own lifting, to watch an impressive lift, or to tell someone that they're going to break their back deadlifting that way (serious, I end up telling at least one guy a week that a rounded back is bad).
Moreover, if I'm "taking selfies" with my big *kitten* smart phone, it's not so that everyone can see how good I look in my Underarmor shirt, it's so that I can watch the video after my set to form check.0 -
There are a lot of girls that consider gyms as what they are sometimes advertised as, 'social clubs' with fitness involved. From my experience it heavily depends on which gym you subscribe to because the gym I go to currently is all business, however my past gyms were a more family friendly, cleaner environment. This encouraged people of all ages and different goals to join, plus who doesn't like shiney new equipment, fancy treadmills, whatnot?
Some of these women sign up with the intent of meeting people at the gym, they make themselves look good, get on a treadmill and read a book while briskly walking. This is still exercise, and I'm way more than okay to see people like this at a gym, as long as there are additional units around which I could use. This opinion changes when I see the person, be it a female or male, is on a machine that I want to use and they are not taking it seriously. They are being inconsiderate and should re-evaluate the reason they are in the gym, and look towards other venues for building relationships or trying to get the opposite sex's attention.

Holy crap people totally missing the point of the OP....No one said you have to look like crap, no one said you have to wash off your makeup if you go to the gym after work...and to criticize the OP for noticing and saying SHE isnt working hard enough makes no sense at all! She was pretty much making fun of girls who use the gym as an excuse to look all cute and show off how cute and adorable they are...if you are going there to work hard, which Im assuming most of you are, then it ISNT ABOUT YOU!!! wow...
hmm and I think you are missing the point that if you are really working out and hitting it hard you will not have the time to really notice anything, much less the brand of makeup some chick is wearing...0 -
lol I went and worked out with a full face AND bright red lipstick. Why? Because I came from work and thats what I was wearing that day. I don't need to wash my face before I go to the gym when I'm going to be taking a shower right after lol
Girls that put makeup on to go to the gym? Silly. But you can't assume that's the case for every girl you see there that has makeup on.0 -

Welll...If I'm going to the gym to work hard...Then it kind of IS about me...Right?? I mean...I'M the reason I'm going....TO achieve the goals I've set out for myself0 -
I come to the gym from work or clinicals, and I have my makeup on. I also generally have my hair looking somewhat decent, because hell, I was at work, and they don't appreciate me coming in looking like I rolled out of bed. (My patients don't, either.)
Sorry that some of us don't look "messed up" enough for you. I guess we can muss up our hair and smear our makeup, just to make you happy. Because really, that's all anyone else is on the planet to do, is make you happy.
Besides that, I go to the gym to work out. I don't go to check out other people and make snappy judgements. I generally don't even talk to anyone else there, much less look at them, because I'm not there for them, and they don't matter.
If you have enough time to stare at other people and make judgements about what they look like and how hard they're working, YOU aren't working out hard enough.0 -
She was pretty much making fun of girls who use the gym as an excuse to look all cute and show off how cute and adorable they are..
I'm not taking personal offense, I look like crap at the gym. I chimed in because I'm tired of people putting other people down for things that don't hurt anyone, and it gets tiresome when women are somehow minimized for liking makeup or fun gym clothes.
If the point is complaining about people (people, not just women) who take up machines when not doing anything, that's a different point entirely. I have a small gym, but I usually just work around them and hope that by the time I finish my other stuff they've moved on. (Happens the most with people who work out in groups or pairs. One person works out and the others sit on the machines around them. I haven't noticed a gender pattern with this. These aren't areas where you'd need a spot.) Usually it works out fine by just going to another machine, but if I really needed to, I'd just ask them if I can use the machine.0 -

Who was talking about brands of make up? Your comment, as per usual, is irrelevant and incorrect.0
