    Today I went on the chest press, and a guy comes to me and says, can I do 1 set. He came on then doesn't do anything. Then does his set but doesn't go. He ended staying on the machine. I felt like smacking him on his head with a 10kg plate.

    Should have told him he needed to move and that you were going to use it.

    I should have, just seeing his face irritated me. So I went on a different machine. I was vexed out.

    Yep you guys were right. Finally ran into a really loud grunter at the gym. Dude sounded like he was having an orgasm every other second. It was annoying

    Today at the gym, two young girls with make up on, standing around, were walking up and down like they're in the park.

    OMG, my gym has an indoor track and I love using it for speed intervals, but lately, it seems like there's ALWAYS some group of people just moseying around it.

    And it's cool if you're really walking and stay on the outside lane, but I swear, groups of 3 ladies will come in and just walk and chit-chat - 3 abreast, so you have to ask them to move over every time you lap them. Dude. Get out of my way!

    The gym is the new hang out place to chill :lol:

    1) When you go right after lunchtime thinking it'd be quiet in the gym only to find a group of 4 gym goers hogging 1 of the only 2 lat pull down stacking machines, one of the two machines for rows and both middle back pull down machines for 20 minutes, continuously talking to each other and rotating as if it was a tea party, most of the time sitting on the machines while doing nothing.

    2) Dropping the weights of a machine with weight stack. Ugh, the noise!

    3) Using the only 10 kg training bar for bench pressing 60 kg.

    Getting the dumbbells out of weight order makes me irritated. Not wiping down is just gross.

    The guys who do a nervous pacing routine between sets, wandering and staggering about and breathing hard, and not really caring if they get in the way of others. We get it, bro, you are a beast and need to get that nervous energy out, just look out for others and maybe (gasp) say "excuse me" if you nearly plow into someone.

    Today at the gym, a guy on the treadmill wearing a tank top was sweating so bad like he just came out of the shower. The treadmill has drench sweat everywhere. I felt disgusted, plus when he went pass I tried to make sure his sweat does not fall on me. Although I felt bit wetness on my shin. I don't want their sweat to fall on me.

    I would but I got an exceptional good deal plus it opened last year. So it's a very good facility. It's just unethical people, plus by changing doesn't mean I won't find those types of people.
