    *no re-racking of weights/Dumbbells
    * not wiping down the equipment and that includes the handle grips if it's a bike or elliptical.

    People who bounce while they're running on treadmills, causing breakage... Slow it down by .5 and you won't be elephanting the poor machine.

    How does one know if they are doing this? I run on the treadmill and I have no idea if I do this...

    I hate when people don't wanna share the same treadmill when the gym is full. Or when they judge me for bringing along my shrimp-toed Asian granny dressed as a Sherpa so I don't get lost doing the stair-climbers.

    Turning the heater up in a room with your BF/GF in the middle of summer can be fun. Like, really fun.

    I'm sometimes this woman walking in... Long curled hair, makeup etc....especially if I am running in just after work. But I rarely leave looking that good, I'm usually a sweaty mess. But I totally get the judgement. I, on the other hand, could care less. They pay the same amount even if they're there to eat egg rolls in the spa :p:s
