Basically poor gym etiquette. A lot of them have been covered but there's a few I didn't see yet. People who try to save/reserve treadmills by leaving their stuff on them while they are off taking a class or lifting. Also, there is one lady at my gym who uses the time to catch up on personal calls. I could care less what she does with her time on the machines, but her personal calls are very distracting to me for some reason. I can only listen to my headphones to loud.0

What's funny about these threads (because this is like the 1000th one I've seen in the few years I've been here) is that 90% of the ones bitching have literally been a member of a gym for like 2 weeks.
But please, continue to tell us about ALL of your experiences in the past 14 days *Willy Wonka Meme*0 -

The only time I've ever felt really annoyed at the gym I was on the elliptical and the lady next to me got a phone call. Directly in front of us there is a sign that says NO CELL ZONE! Now, it probably wouldn't bother me still, except she kept going
"OOOHHHH GOODYGOODYGOODYGOODY!!!!! *gossips* OOOO MMYYYYY GOOOOOOOSSSSSHHHHHHH *gossips* GOODYGOODYGOODY!"
for 20 minutes until I wanted to reach over and smack her on the mouth. If the phone call was important, take it and go off. IF you're not even working hard enough to be winded while gossiping about your dear friend, then you're really not multi-tasking anyway. Though I did use my irritation to work a little harder. *shrug*
Mostly, when I see girls who look like it took them an hour to get ready for the gym and they seem like they're lollygagging around, I just assume that they would like to get fit, but are too insecure to jump in and possibly look bad in any way and are trying to get over it. Grunters just make me laugh. My gym is pretty decent and I love going. I usually wipe machines down before and after I use them anyway.0 -

Note to self: Don't go to the gym, unless I sweat an ocean, need an oxygen tank, have an ambulance waiting & the hospital is next door because otherwise I obviously don't work hard enough, since my intensity level matters; to some other gym goers!0 -

Sometimes i immediately go and wipe the machine and give them the death stare0 -
When I go to the gym and @brillmer87 isn't there to be my lift buddy.0

You know I could care less what the guy next to me is doing, I'm there for one purpose to train my butt off. So what if someone drops a weight, makes a huff, whatever the case is. We all started at some point in time, who are we to judge? Someone was probably thinking the same thing about you and I in the beginning, "annoying newbie with really awful form."Seriously, I think people waste too much time thinking about what is wrong with what other people are doing, just go do what you have to do, mind your own business and get out of there it's pretty simple I do it all the time.0

Not wiping down the bench after someone sweats all over it.0

Girls that take selfies on the equipment and don't actually do anything. "Gym Seshhhhhh" - No, you have not had a gym sesh.

I dated a few girls like this though. Maybe it's just a character trait.
No way man. You are lying?
Wait.
Ohhhhh, *lift*. I totally misread that the first time.
Well, this is embarrassing.
