How many of you get annoyed with weight/machine hoggers at the gym?

    Guilty, especially the women who get on a machine then sit there and text a whole convo without using it. I'm actually quiet shy otherwise, I'd ask them to move.

    What do you consider machine hogging. Because if you're doing sets you have 60 second intervals in between. If it's a machine some people don't mind switching out in between. Don't like switching on on bench though.

    I have endless gym gripes.. Like when you walk up to a piece of equipment and some dude, who's in the middle of a set across the room says "hey, I'm using that". Or the guy that picks up a set of dumbells and does a set of curls right in front of the rack instead of taking a few steps back, like nobody else needs access. Or my ultimate favorite, the person who uses the solitary drinking fountain to fill up their gallon water jug while a line piles up behind them. People are just generally selfish round these parts..

    Well, glad you can go at that time. I wake up at 4am for work so that time wouldn't work for me. But at least you found a solution
