Have you ever had an embarrassing fitness moment?

Once I was running on a treadmill on a gym, and the treadmill was just a step away from the water fountain. In an attempt to be efficient, I left the treadmill on, hopped off to get my sip of water and then hopped back on. However, I took a misstep getting back on and my legs flew out from under me. The story doesn't end here. I was still holding on to the handlebars, so there I was, in a gym full of people with runners on either side, Holding on the handlebars, treadmill running, and my legs flapping and kicking uselessly behind me. My only recourse was to let go with my hands and let my upper body and face slam onto the moving treadmill. I prepared for that and indeed let go. What I did not prepare for was when the moving treadmill then shot me back against the wall behind. It was great. No one looked at me, I assume because they were all so embarrassed for me.

In the morning if my face is a little puffy I'll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. I can do 1000 now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

Yeah...my body is an embarrassing, poor excuse for fitness. :laugh:

i was jogging my way early morning at the park ,listening to music , i didn't notice some greasy stuff on the road and stepped on it , balanced myself for some seconds but then slipped exactly how a cartoon character would slip on a banana skin..right on my butt :P
I got up...sat on the pavement looked around it anyone saw me..just a few people around..who didn't notice ..phew!!

I went to the gym, got on the rowing machine and after 10 minutes noticed I was wearing furry leg warmers (I hadn't shaved my legs for a looong time!) I decided to get off the rowing machine and hide away on the elliptical in the corner. (I'd paid my money, I was NOT going home) I got on the elliptical and started running furiously, as if I could run away from my shame...then I farted..loudly... :blushing: Not one of my finer moments.

Shorts were really thing and when i got out the hot tub you can see the whole print lol

In my mid-twenties I was addicted to aerobics classes and usually stood at the front of the class. During one session we were all jumping to the music when my prosthetic breast leapt out of my bra and t-shirt and onto the floor! I calmly picked it up stuffed it back where it belonged and regained the tempo!! :laugh:

I'm a hot mess in the gym and I generally don't give a rat's scaly tail. But this past week, for the first time in 4 1/2 years, I tripped on the treadmill and almost went down. ALMOST. I hit a dizzy spell cuz of the heat, and missed grabbing the handrail and stepped off the side so one foot was moving and one wasn't. The two older ladies next to me came over to make sure I was ok. I was, til I got home and found I tore up my toes. :P

And - one of the side effects of going through grief and depression is that you lose your ever loving mind. So invariably, once a week, I'll forget to pack something in my gym bag. I've had to work out without socks (cuz it's summer, sandal season!), normal undies instead of my beloved compression ones, etc. Yeah - one day I forgot a gym shirt. Fortunately, I had a camisole under a white blouse, so I ended up working out in that over my sports bra. I texted my trainer and told him I wasn't leaving the women's only area and that he'd have to come back to find me. Don't you just know he wouldn't let me do that and we worked out as per normal, and yeah - I made a few jaws drop.

Making bubbles in the pool is always embarrassing. I have farted, burped, nearly drowned from catching a wave while breathing...but I keep swimming.

Never crapped myself BUT!! I release MASSIVE farts while doing Yoga, not regular farts but Protein/Dog/ Cow Dung smelling farts lol
