I'm that annoying one at the gym who. . . .

I sing, loudly. I sometimes warm up by jumping around like a maniac. I fart during power cleans. I play music loudly. I leave everything on the floor and never put anything back. I never wipe down anything. I love working out at home :bigsmile:

I don't wipe down anything either! There is a guy who does that at my gym, and I don't sweat a bunch so oh well! At least I put most of the stuff back! "P

I make way too much noise on the treadmill doing HIIT intervals...I crank it way up for 30 seconds and then back down for a minute of recovery...and then back up for 30 seconds...I have the ipod cranked way up so I can't hear myself but I am quite sure it annoys everyone else...

Oh, and I'm also the one in the ratty thrift-store workout clothes because I really couldn't give a rat's *kitten* what you think about how I look when I'm gettin' my sweat on.

Same here...and no makeup either. Who cares what you look like when you're getting your sweat on!

yes! thank you, its good to know there are other sensible women out there

I'm the annoying one who is overwhelmed with endorphins after a great class/workout that I can't help but smile from ear to ear and chat up anyone who is foolish enough to make eye contact with me in those moments. Seriously, the rate of my speech and the euphoria I both feel and -:blushing: -express always bugs me out afterwards. (even though I kinda like it.)

OK, I do something real strange at the gym, and some have caught me doing it.
I go in the aerobics room when it's slow and nobody else is in there.

I close the door and dim the lights:noway:

And I skip.
You know? Like when we were kids - skipping.
I do it for cardio, and I look like a total fool - somebody a few cards short of a full deck.

It's just so much fun and a great break in the routine. It really works the heart and lungs.

Sorry about this...:flowerforyou:

This sounds like a lovely match for my dorky euphoria bursts. Too bad you don't go to my gym-- I'd love an excuse to skip!

I dance as as I go from machine to machine while listing to my MP3 player. Sometimes I dance and mouth along the words to a bouncy song between sets heheh.. Oh yeah and I ware ratty stuff cause I don't care how I look there.. I am there to work out and sweat not to look cute ehehe :laugh:

I'm the chick that takes the corner treadmill so I can practice making faces into the wall mirrors. You may think I'm joking, but I'm not. Through 30 minutes of cardio, I listen to my mp3 player, look at the mirror, and practice making a variety of strange faces that would rouse the suspicions of the men in white coats, LOL!

OMG That's Just to funny:laugh:

I grunt and yell through my last reps when I'm doing heavy lifts. I know this bothers a lot of people, but it seriously helps me press through those last 3 squats.

I am the person who mouths the words too.

4. Who farts without a care in the world. If you're gonna pass gas, pass it proudly.

You. Are. Awesome!

me too! Actually, I'm so dorky I bring my purse into the workouts and hang it off the sides of the machines. i expect that is very annoying. But I have two jobs, each with its own cell phone, and I'm almost constantly on call, so I need the pockets at the ends of the purses to hold the phones... you get the picture. I'm actually impressed how seldom either phone rings while I'm working out. Maybe people are starting to know my schedule? Hmmm... hope so. Anyway. I'm working out. That's what matters. Who cares who thinks what i need to do to make that happen in annoying? But I do appreciate this thread too. I feel all validated now. Oh... and I wear ratty workout clothes, no makeup, funny pony tails, and probably do other annoying stuff too...

I am the one who never goes.



Too busy at home brushin my hair.

100 strokes?

I also sweat all over the treadmill, the belt, the base, the handles, the screen, the whole thing needs to be wiped down.

EEEEW!

I'm not ashamed to say that I sing along with the iPod on my rides. Also, I am that girl who will tell you to get off the cell phone if you're having a nice long (and usually loud) chat on the treadmill next to me...if you're on the phone, you're not working out and you might as well just go to the lounge! It distracts me and is a huge gym pet peeve. >: |

I've answered my phone while on the elliptical. I don't have a full on conversation, but I've chatted for a minute or two. If someone told me to get off my phone, I'd just give them a dirty look and keep talking. That's just rude. I wouldn't go up to the person who has their elliptical on 1 and is reading a magazine and tell them to go sit in the lounge because they're not working out, because it's not my business!

I'm not talking about a one-minute chat...I'm talking about long, loud 30 minute conversations that most likely should not be held in the gym. Believe me, this has happened. And I do try to mind my own business, but if you're being so disruptive that I can hear you over my music I am going to say something. But thanks anyway for moving the goalposts and misconstruing my post.
