Awkward Gym Moment
It doesn't happen often, but every once in a while, something really awkward or funny happens at the gym I go to. Here are two my my favorites:
1. Back in September, all of a sudden, a bunch of staff members showed up and started running around the gym, dressed like super heroes.
2. An older person walked up to me, out of now where, and said to me, "Your shirt reminds me of my garden." and then just stood there.
What are your funny or awkward moments?

LOL! that is to funny!! I had someone spray me in the face with the cleaner. It was an accident, but very very awkward. Lol0

Also, I have been known to catch my earphones with my hand and send my ipod flying across the room. I hate when that happens. :blushing:0

I let out a rather large fart at the bottom of a squat on monday0

I was playing basketball and these two guys started arguing. One guy totally lost his shit and got pissed and wanted to throw punches. Suddenly he started punching himself in the face yelling and screaming. I didn't know whether to break up the fight with himself or just sit back and watch. So I watched. I wanted to record it on my phone, but it was in my locker.0

There used to be an older lady at the gym I went to that would draw her eyebrows back in with Navy blue eyeliner and the kicker she drew them on just like spock's, I will repeat JUST like spock's. I always wanted to ask her if she was color blind and why did she choose that particular shape of eyebrow but ....................didn't want to make it an awkward moment at the gym lol0

I've done this several times. I almost fell off the spin bike in the middle of the class which was very funny to me.0 -
I was talking to the lady on the treadmill beside me...and all of a sudden she fell and went shooting off the back. Somehow, I was more embarrassed than she was.0

If I didn't have a really strong case for my phone, it would be in a thousand pieces by now. I can't count the times I have done that.0 -

Bahahaha. I have never been mad enough to punch myself in the face. Too bad you couldn't get video.0 -
I was waiting for the stair climber and the guy had warts on his hands. I was signed up next for it so I walked up and saw this....I didn't want to use it anymore.....even tho he wiped it down. I could tell he knew. Very awkward......0

My IPod flung off the treadmill. Ended up rolling under the lining. Thankfully I hit the stop button in time to save my IPod before it was crushed on the under side.0

i hate when i trip on a machine. nobody notices but it's still so awkward.
also when you adjust the seat on a strength machine and when you sit down it makes a super loud sound.
last but not least...every single butt-naked lady in the locker room. don't care if you're 20 and have a perfect body or 70 and a little flabby. i don't want to see it. i understand it's the locker room but there's no reason you have to be walking around everywhere, doing your hair, talking to friends naked.0 -

No kidding. Those are awkward moments. I don't even get what's up with the locker rooms. I really want to print up some signs that say, "No Standing/Walking Around Naked".0 -

HAHAHAHAHAH that garden comment killed me... sounds like something my grandma would say/do0 -
because of work I end up at the gym late fairly often, near closing.
One night Im on the elliptical machine gettin a good workout and I nearly jump off the damn thing because I notice this rather scary islander looking woman cleaning the machine im on as I'm workin out. startled the hell outta me.
out of like weird fear/anxiety I tell her that I'm still using the machine, and in this terrifying gargoyle voice she utters "I wait" and then just stands there watching me...doing nothing but watching me. needless to say I bailed after like 2 minutes when I realized she was going nowhere...and when I left, I looked back up, she was still standing there same spot. super creepy.0 -

Don't ever go into a locker room in China.0 -

I..Would..Have..Died..0 -
I got off my bike and tottered over to the cleaning station to get the spray to wipe it down, came back, wipe wipe wi.... where's my towel?
Oh, it's on the bike NEXT to the one I just cleaned. Not tooo embarrassing except I looked around to see if anyone saw ans a lady who's there with my same routine (so we always exchange a good morning etc) was on the treadmill behind cracking up and pointing at the bike I was meant to be doing. Oops.
Also - beside the very same lady mind you..
The first day I went to the gym I jumped on the treadmill and was trying to get it to go faster using the touch screen.. It wouldn't budge and I was getting frustrated, all of a sudden it bumps up to 25 km/h!!! WHAAAAAAAA!! I was quick enough to jump out either side, but everyone heard my jump and saw my panic. hah0 -
When I was lifting at the rec a couple of days ago I got a massive nose bleed mid set lol xD0

I would have cracked up laughing.....:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:0 -
Oh and one time I was running laps around the indoor track and kind of zoned out day dreaming. The first lane is to be for runners only, no walking. Someone decided to walk and I completely ran them over on accident xD0

totally agree with this. the older the lady the less selfconscious they seem to be. you really don't want to have to see some lady with grey pubes putting skin cream on head to foot. that sort of thing should be done int he privacy of her home. To me its simple manners for the first thing to happen when you leave the shower is put a pair of panties on. at least.0 -
It's not laugh out loud funny like some of them - but the look of panic and a blokes face when I jumped in the swimming pool wearing my waterproof MP3 player was definitely one for the archives! I think he thought he was gonna get fried!
:laugh:0 -
Oh, no. That is hilarious. I have a waterproof digital cam that looks like a phone. I have tons of fun with that. I've had my son put it in a beverage glass at a hotel and walk up to the counter to ask for a towel. We have thrown it in the pool, etc. It is pretty funny. Thanks for sharing.0

One time I was on the treadmill doing a very intense day from C25K (can't remember which now though) But I was so dead after. I went to the spot where they have the cleaning stuff and nothing was there! I was feeling around like an idiot and so dizzy. I gave up and just left. Felt like everyone on the bikes facing me were judging me.
... and I didn't know where else there was cleaning stuff. I also don't touch much of the machine, just the start,stop and the numbers for speed.0 -
Once I was working on the elliptical, using a good resistance level, so I was working it out. A trainer came up to me and started talking to me. Well, doing all that talking was getting me out of breath and hard for me to talk. She then asked me what my goals were. I said, to be able to join crossfit and keep up. She looked at me funny and said, wow, haven't really heard people talk about that. Then she left. It then it hit me like 5 minutes later that she thought I said CROSS DRESS!! :blushing:0

listen to this................. Right so you have a area in your gym with mats where you do abs excercise and stretches yea? well I was doing some excerise on the gym ball in this area and this bloke comes and lays down on the end mat next to the plastic rack that holds all the gym/swiss balls to start doing his abs, I get up and go to put my gym ball back on this fragile rack, when I only knock the whole thing over and about 8 gym balls go crashing all over him! and all over the area! I could of died with embarrasment! I always knew one day that it would happen, the stupid rack was a joke.0

Nothing awkward, but I've walked in with my shorts on backwards. Wondered why I couldn't put my hand in my pocket lol. Went back to the locker room!
A really awkward moment the other day when I went in the locker room. An old guy only uses the showers to save money at home, doesn't exercise, just sits there naked, drying by the radiator waiting to talk to anyone. The other day he saw me twinge (back ache) and walked right over to dig his thumbs in my back. NOT a comfortable moment!0 -
I work at a police dept and I was runnin in the dept gym after my shift. I was alone and had my ipod so I was singing out loud and yelling out the cadences that I have on it out loud. I would check here and there to make sure no one was in there before serenading myself again. well......i got lost in my cadence and before i knew it 5 mins or so had gone by and i turned and looked behind me and the CHIEF OF POLICE was sitting on the bench press bench watching laughing at me....ugh FAIL0
