Have you come across people who keep hogging the machine? Constantly playing on their phone. People who sweat a lot, leaving marks on the machine? Folks, share your experience..

    I can't stand when specifically guys try to over-lift in the gym to try and impress others. Definitely guys that sit next to you on the bench and try to match what you are lifting. DB Press for specifics.

    When I still had time to go to the gym, I HATED people who wouldn't wipe down the machine!!!! I always brought my own towel just for that purpose. Working in is a foreign concept to some I suppose,.....

    People who come to the gym to socialize. Talking is fine but if that's what you do 75% of the time you're there...

    I hate this too, so gross. I wipe before and after now. One woman saw me wiping down the treadmill after she finished and questioned me. I told her that since she couldn't be bothered to do it and I didn't want to get her sweat on my iPad that I was doing it.

    She wipes down her machines all the time now, at least when I'm there.

    Men or women who insist on wearing what smells like sex panther perfume. You're at the gym lady, not a brothel, go shower that *kitten* off, and also, thanks for the sinus headache.

    Guys in the locker room who sit on the bench butt naked. I do not care if you just got out off the shower, put something under you! Also people who spread Bro science.

    guys who obviously stare at my boobs when I'm jogging on the treadmill...no I don't even show any cleavage, but you can't hide big boobs haha. I know guys will always stare and blah blah blah but it's just awkward... :# Like c'mon dude I'm just a girl trying to get fit.

    When people stare you down for only doing a quick walking pace on the treadmill... Even if I'm on max incline, with a previous ankle injury. And I mean, the STARE DOWN OF DOOM. And there are plenty others free.

    Yes, it's really gross. I understand that you are going to get sweaty, we all do, just please be considerate and hygienic. I don't think that's too much to ask for.

    I hate it when people do things at the gym that in no way affect my life and I wouldn't even notice if I were minding my own business

    Sometimes you do notice things people do even if you are minding your own business...
