in Chit-Chat
I was in high school and I was squatting I think 325 lbs. I didn't pay attention to the fact that my shorts were a bit tight. I went down and when I got all the way down, I heard and felt my shorts rip, exposing my bum. Had a few people laughing.

What's happened to you??

    Wore ice cream undies under leggings (squats day)...Apparently they were way more see through than I thought... (⊙＿⊙) Not to mention that gossip spread quickly.

    Lesson learned!

    Came back to my gym bag one day to find an anonymous written note from a fellow gym goer asking me to take a shower because my odour was fouling up the place

    You should have just skipped the shower after that and go to the gym the next day smelling worse. Lol

    Had a buddy try showing me how to do crunches on a bench that held you at an angle and lock your legs in place, luckily he walked away when i eas trying these but when i came up I unintentionally let out a loud fart. No one said anything but I know people heard it. All I do now is laugh about it. Lol.

    Sitting there and listening to an overweight PT tell me I needed to switch my 0 calorie hot sauce to Siracha and overhearing her tell her colleague about my Huuuuge breakfasts (at that time an egg and two slices of 12 grain bread).

    She can sell other people PT by being condescending, but I'm not paying anyone money to be disrespectful.

    And second most embarrassing is seeing the same PT much thinner when I go to the gym while I'm still working on it.

    I hope you were embarrassed for her and not embarrassed for yourself. I don't think you have anything to be embarrassed about, she should be for talking about others! :(

    the long-ago time when i was in this rec centre that had fixed-weight bars stored on a kind of pyramid rack. this guy saw me strugging to get a heavy bar back onto the only slot available for it, near the top. he gave me a hand iwth it and i said 'i can get it out, but i can't always get it up'.

    his eyes went just a little bit crossed, and then did this nervous ha-ha and said 'yeah, we all know that feeling i guess.'

    it didn't um, penetrate until i was almost home. the thing is, i probably look like his mom.

    well, so what. the problem with her wasn't her 'expertise'. it was her attitude.
    i see quite a few free-range p.t.s working with various clients where i lift. most of them are exceptionally good on the technical level, but i cross town to lift with an old-school generalist who really means 'respect' when he talks about it.

    Ha ha ha!

    One dude that spotted me said "let me know when you need some," and he paused a second them turned bright red.

    I think maybe he was saying let me know when you need to be spotted again.

    Did my 1st 45 min workout after many years of not working out. Towards the end of the session I threw up. I was sooo embarrassed! But everyone was cool about it telling me that's not uncommon & it meant I did the job right

    I was doing dumbbell bench presses. Just starting out, and was using 25lb dumbbells. Tried to push out one last rep, left arm gave out as I finished raising the dumbbell. Came crashing down on my face. LOL

    But you racked your weights when you were done, right?
