Gym princesses?

well id would just love to have the confidence to go to the gym make or no make up on :laugh: sooo i bought a cross trainer for my house instead! one thing i can not work how to do is talk and excercise at the same time or use my fone i almost fell off doing it the other day haha


each to their own if one girl feels more confident with a ton of make up on then so be it they mite have issues who knows! andfor the goin so slow what if they are trying to build up to going like mad man :laugh: i cant go on high resistance yet but i am building up to it.

Hey does anyone know where 3rd peroid bio class is, I am new to this high school??

LMAO exactly

If these "atrocious" women who *gasp* wear makeup and dress up to go to the gym bother you so much, then buy the equipment you use at the gym and put in your house. If you want company, invite people over or hire a personal trainer.

If you cannot afford to or are not willing to do the above then: YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.

Frankly, I bet these "sluts" are most likely thinner, prettier, and better looking even without makeup than the women complaining about them.

you said that so well!! :drinker:
I *hate* the word hater but so what if people wear makeup to the gym... at least they're going... unlike the millions of people sitting on the couch.
Nothing wrong with a little makeup...

Who cares? At least they are there! You know they are probably thinking, why are you here without make up?

I make it a point not to make fun or talk **** (even in my own head) about others at the gym. I'm glad they are there, and that is the way it should be! It should be one place you go that you don't worry about what you look like or how you sweat!

why come to gym when my intention is not to work out???

I think the OP asked a valid question actually, and I'm quite surprised that the thread has taken such a turn. The irony being that people are judging the OP - for being judgmental! I hardly think she frets all day about it and has sleepless nights over it, c'mon really?

I see this at the gym as well, wonder the same thing - why bother with the gym when you are not going to use the machines? And yes, it IS annoying when they are using the machine that you want to go on - I have come here to EXERCISE, after PAYING my monthly fees from my hard-earned wages - yet I have some Gym Barbie just standing on the machine, flicking her hair, and getting in the way. I work shifts, so what little time I have, I want to use it properly.

Same with my pool, why pay all that money if you are just going to sit in one spot and chat to your mates - it annoys me when they block the lanes doing so, it's a small swimming pool after all, and I have come there specifically to exercise.

I am not hopefully the type of person that is being discussed on this thread, but I can't go to the gym without some make up on. It's just an issue with my own self confidence. If I go without makeup, I feel off the whole time and cant get a good work out in. When I take time and a little effort to look presentable before I go then I can do my best when I get there. Now I don't wear a lot of makeup, just a bit (today was foundation and mascara).
Anyway, as of the going low on the machines. I have very bad knees and even the elliptical can give me intense pain. So I have to do all forty five minutes on level one and I am still dead at the end of it, just because of physical issues. Sometimes I have to read a book while I do the elliptical just to get my mind off of the obsenities being screamed from my joints. I do try to fix those things though, like today I put five pounds of weights in my bag to help me get a better burn.
I am not there to find a guy or anything, I just work harder to feel better about myself when I feel better about myself when I go.
I am just saying, you don't always know the "why's" of the situation.
OP this is not a judgement on you at all, I am just putting in my two cents.

Here's the thing... EVERYONE judges.

True. :drinker:

Don't try to deny you don't. Someone cuts you off in traffic, and they're every bad name in the book.

Until you look at the driver and see it's granny. :laugh: Who doesn't get cut off in traffic and look to see who's driving? Yep. People make snap decisions all the time. Sometimes it's a good thing like instances of danger, etc... and sometimes it's not.

As for the scenario set up by OP, I agree with the others that those individuals pay their dues. I don't care if they're using the equipment or not really. It's just too trivial of a thing to be bothered by or even concerned with for me.

I'll admit that sometimes I wonder why people wear certain things like that to the gym. I think I'm just a little jealous though!

Ladies please don't hesitate to dress up like you're going clubbing and put on as much make up as you want when going to the gym...this provides me much needed entertainment between my sets and during long and boring cardio sessions. Your efforts are much appreciated.

LOL Thanks for clarifying. Gosh, you must have REALLY good eyes to know I was saying BURNS, instead of BUMS. They look very similiar in lower case letters!

What in the world is bedazzled burns?

BUMs, not BURNs. Pants with rhinestone-encrusted lettering across the backside.

No, I have really horrible eyes and squint hard. But I realize there's some words that blur together like that.

Like the street sign for "FLICK ST" by my house. :noway:

So you saw my little sister at the gym.

My little sister wears a lot of make-up and honestly it's because she looks scary without it.

hahahahaha omg this is too funny!! ^^^^^^

I think tons of people who go to the gym look for potential boyfriends/girlfriends. That's fine and there isn't anything wrong with it. It's one way to meet people and it's way better than a bar or club...but you should probably want to meet your s/o at the gym because you're both interested in fitness and would have that in common, right? Don't use it as a shopping mall for sex, lol, THAT'S when you might want to go to the club or bar. Live and let live though, right?

They don't have gym princesses at boxing gyms. I'm just saying

I saw a girl at my gym wearing skinny jeans and stilettos the other day!!! And there's another girl who gets on the treadmill and does like 2 mph in FLIP FLOPS. If they look at me like I'm crazy for sweating I don't notice..... probably 'cause I'm there to WORK! LOL!

WAS SHE DOING POLE DANCING EXERCISES???
