    I always wipe my sweat off the benches. Now, my semen? That's another story....
    Ahahaha. So wrong.

    You might be a father ;)


    I just call him daddy.

    If we're ranting, how about the douche bags who work out while on their cell phone?

    Amen! Oh you are not kidding...there is a fellow at my gym that literally DRIPS while on the treadmill. There are puddles on the sides of the ramp. Nasty!!!!

    I am that guy.

    Mostly because I am running at sustained speeds of 10mph, while your pansy *kitten* is at 4mph. The gym is a nasty place. Don't like it, buy your own home gym. The gym is for sweating. Get used to it, or don't go.

    If you aren't gonna be touching it, don't worry about it. If its on the floor, don't worry about it. Take a shower when you get home.

    Its one thing when guys are getting nastiness on the benches and don't wipe it off, its a whole different animal when its on the sides of a treadmill.

    My only beef is with those (men AND women) who don't wipe up after themselves on benches, etc. A quick wipe of a treadmill side arms and control panel is courtesy... Only other gripe is if the sweat is flinging onto me by someone :) and no- not in a good way.

    Tightening of the diaphragm through grunting helps the body stabilise your core when lifting heavy. It's a necessary evil for many us.

    If any of you can show me how to lift 350+ on the bar without grunting and being safe I would be happy to listern.

    Ok- that makes sense... what about a sustained ROAR after the weight has long since been lifted and/or deposited? :) To me- that cries "Look at ME!"

    how about you go to teh gym and work out... and relax... and have fun? I know.. it seems like a bad idea to the pauly D's out there who scream, yell and look at themselves in the mirror 100 times before picking up one weight.

    Oh, I agree with that. That's freakin' ridiculous. And weight droppers...it doesn't impress anyone.

    they make me want to rip their cell phone from their ear and chunk it across the gym. Seriously. (not texting, talking. Loudly, as if the are the only ones there.)

    This. I'd like to see the other people in this thread put down their 5lb dumbells and lift some real weight.

    One of our trainers routinely lifts that much and deadlifts 500+ pounds without making a sound.

    There's grunting to lift weight...and then there's grunting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JMOh-cul6M (language: it's 'My New Haircut')

    I'm pretty sure most folks can tell the difference, and it's the latter that is bothersome.

    People actually do that? Then why not skip the gym and go to a coffee shop

    That's nice for him. I can't. I'm not saying it can't be done however.

    LOL I was actually talking to a trainer the other day and she said old men typically come in in the morning to have their coffee and hang out. They don't work out, then they go to breakfast.
