you've ever heard in a gym?

I'll start. Last night I was working out with my trainer and I was laying on my back with my palms on the floor. I said "ick, your floors are dirty." (jokingly) His response was "You don't even want to know what all we've done on these floors..." All I could do was laugh.

    It has to be when the woman on the treadmill next to me poked my arm and continued to poke my arm until I stopped running and took my headphones off.

    I said (in a not overly friendly tone) "WHAT?"

    And she said


    "Can't you see I'm on the phone? Can't you stop running until I'm done because I can't hear what they're saying to me!"

    I rolled my eyes at her, put my headphones back in and ran a mile in 10 mins -- just to insure I was making enough noise for her.

    I was on the treadmill one day when a skinny black women about forty came up to me. I was doing jogging/walking intervals. She said " Your not even trying hard, if you want to lose weight you have to do better then that sista". i was shocked! The nerve of her! I was working my butt off. Well karma got her because she walked over to a treadmill got on and just as she looked back to give me a disapproving look she tripped and flew off the back. Everyone around in the room without head phones who had heard her comment busted up laughing.

    Maybe if she had watched her mouth she would have had time to watch her step,

    At our water aerobics classes they section the pool off into halves so we can do our exercises in one half while the swimmers use the other half. The funniest thing I ever saw was when this ignorant 'idiot' comes into the pool area while we are half way through the class, stands at the edge of the pool, puts on his goggles, and his ear plugs, flexes his muscles, adjusts his speedo's and dives into our half and proceeds to swim a very fast crawl amongst all of us who were doing our aerobics routine! He must have done about five lengths before he stopped and looked up and realised that there was actually a fitness class in progress! His face was a picture when he looked around before looking up at the instructor and thinking ooooppps...before disappearing under the rope into the other half of the pool. It was so very funny!

    I feel like you need to send that story to a magazine. That would be awesome in the "funnies" section. And seriously, what a brat. Serves her right.

    during the WARM UP portion of our class, a 19 year old built like a ballerina pipes up, "This is too easy. I need to sweat, let's go faster!"
    My GF turns to me and says loud enough for all to hear, "You hold her arms. I'll do the punching this time." Everyone laughed.

    Same class, 10 minutes later, another perfect little thing says, "Ew gross. I am sweating!" and grabbed her water and left!

    LOL.....Well, on the track the other day I was walking...warming up before a run and taking my time about it. My husband who is always bursting with energy was nagging me to get going. And just as he made the comment "You'll run when I chase you!" A group of elderly men was walking by....and they all stopped and watched to make sure I was OK....LOL. Chivalry is dead in todays age...those 70 year old men were going to come to a lady's rescue!

    Pretty much ever conversation i'e ever had with a friend in the gym: everything from retelling hilarious texts (Bry, you should ask me about that one! :laugh: ), to gossip about executive officers (not mine, he's *awesome*), to b^tchy comments about other people in the gym that that person is hopefully overhearing.

    Oh, and you gotta love the "chase" of a hot guy eyeing you hitting the different machines and just happening to move around the gym using machines where he can watch you, lol. Cracks me up! :bigsmile:

    I was in a water zumba class (which involved a lot of movement so there's a lot of splashing) when this woman said "Is there any way the rest of you can settle down so my hair doesn't get wet?"

    I used to manage a 24 hour fitness in Northern California. There was a scrawny guy who would come in every day, go to the hack squat machine and stack it with 1,200 pounds. We kept telling him it was dangerous and not to do it. He would never lift it, just acted like he was going to still we would watch him just in case he got the itch.

    Well one day we heard this loud "girly" scream. He was screaming at the top of his lungs. He tried to lift the stack and it came down on top of him shattering his leg.

    The ambulance came and took him away on a stretcher. As he was leaving one of the counselors told him it was going to be alright.

    He looked at the counselor and said "say how do I go about canceling my membership?"

    I like to be comfortable in the gym, and I still have the old softball habit of ripped up shirts and shorts that actually cover my cheeks. Well I was lifting with some of my guy friends in our Concepts of Fitness test out class. These skinny chicks are looking at me, appalled, that I did not even try to do a girly struggle. I beat the boys by benching 215, what can I say I am an AMAZON!!

    So there I was in my comfortable clothes kicking major butt, and this little sorority girl who weighs 100lbs, just shakes her head. She is wearing volleyball pink spandex and a front clasp sports bra with her sorority letters on it. She goes to bench the bar (40lbs) and the front clasp busts open!!!!!!

    She wanted to show off her boob job and I guess she really did!! She never showed up for class again!

    its a tie

    1 years ago this guy was doing lunges with dumbells and he was grunting and then begging he was like"oh God please please arrgh please ooooh please' the whole way and he was a pretty big and strong fella

    2 last year i was working out with a coworker who is a small fellow, and this guy comes in and he was huge he's over there grunting and running around and then he starts saying, " yea they cant handle that, yea they scared of that weight, they intimidated they dont want none of that!" i looked at my coworker because it was just me him and loud dude, then all of a sudden the dude says to me "hey cuz, you know how to do a lift off?" i was like um no, i thought he was challenging me lol, all he wanted me to do was kinda help him lift the weight up, he turned out to be a real nice guy just very scary, think mike tyson lol
