Most Embarrassing Gym Moment...
Replies

These are great, I have only been attending the gym about 3 months now so real embarrassing stories as of yet. But I guess my closest stories would be, while I am working out like on an elliptical machine I will just day dream usually about some Family Guy episode or something funny and will have this grin on my face or laugh out loud kind of. So a nice looking girl is walking past and I am grinning at her like Jerry Sandusky would grin at a little league game.0

Oh my gosh you people you're killing me here ... i am laughing so much my housemates had to check on me!

I decided to go swim laps at the gym after a few years (and a few extra pounds) of not swimming, so when I went to put on my one-piece, it wasn't flattering and I didn't want to wear it. I put on my new tankini and bikini bottoms and hit the pool. I was just finishing my first lap and decided to do a flip turn into my second lap. I pushed hard off the wall, relishing the feel of being in the water again, and when I did, my bikini bottoms flew down to my knees. I shot my head out of the water in an attempt to stand up and fix the problem, but I inhaled before I got all the way upright and took in some water. After I got done choking and pulled my bottoms up, I kept on going. I'm sure I gave the lifeguard (who was stationed right behind that wall) a great view of my bare butt, and the guy in the next lane kept looking at me every time we would pass by. I was much more careful when pushing off the wall after that.
I made sure I kept swimming until the guy left and the lifeguards rotated stations.0 -
~When I was younger I would go work out at the YMCA, mainly because I had a crush on a guy who worked as a lifeguard there in the afternoons. I was walking around the pool staring at him instead of paying attention to where I was going and ran into this guy who was built like a brick wall. It knocked me off my feet and I not only fell into the pool but lost my top as I fell and hit my head too, so the boy I had a huge crush on in high school had to come drag topless me out of the pool.
~I was done with my workout and talking to a few people who had been in the class after. Someone said something funny and we all laughed...and I farted. But it wasn't just a fart it was incredibly loud and my fart "laughed" with me. Everyone heard it and we couldn't help it because it sounded so much like a laugh...we laughed at it...which caused me to fart laugh again...and again...and again. By the time my body decided to stop being a side show attraction we had all laughed ourselves into tears.
this one is pretty funny...0 -
Totally farted in yoga class. Not just a little, polite *poot* but a long, juicy fart with teeth. Ok and it STUNK like it had just rolled right past a turd. It was awful. I was on a juice cleanse and sometimes you don't have control and your farts just can't be trusted. I heard someone trying to suppress their giggles, another person said "gross" under their breath. Mortified and frozen in place, I didn't how to damage control this one. I finished class as best I could and then as soon as they went into final relaxation I immediately got up, ran out of the studio and never went back. When I got home I discovered that yes, I had *kitten* myself a little.
Oh my this is very funny as well.. I needed the laugh today too..0 -
before i started this journey, it was being the only one, fat, and in frumpy clothes, on the treadmills not running or going a faster speed..i wasnt much of a gym person, but now that i WANT to go, i cant afford it

About 6 years ago, I started my monthly friend while jogging on the treadmill...and didn't notice until I was in the locker room changing to leave. It was BAD!
I canceled my membership the next day and got a new membership at a different gym!0 -
I am sooo scared to fall on the treadmill!!! Dropped my IPOD twice while on it...but no falls
I was at a workout class we were warming up when I noticed something white sticking out on the side of my shirt.... I had it on wrongside out!!! When I went to get a mat I riped it out.... also riping a hole in my shirt :laugh:
This tread REALLY CRAKED ME UP!!!!! Thanks

Okay this isn't anywhere near as funny as some of the stories above, but a few weeks ago in spinning class my shoelaces (which were tied pretty tight to start with) somehow unravelled and got caught up in the pedal mechanism. I actually didn't notice for a while, it was only when I felt this blistering tightness around my ankle that I realised there was a problem. Since this was during a speed track the pedals took ages to stop (completely forgot there was a big red button you use to stop the motion of course!) I didn't know what to do first, take my shoe off and try and continue in my socks with the shoe dangling around at the same time, or whether to give up and cry for help. It was pretty dark in my corner so I couldn't even see how the heck the laces had managed to get tied up in the first place, or how to undo them. So I had to get off my bike (at this point the instructor thought I had keeled over or something - one minute I was there and the next I wasn't) and get on my knees wishing I had a pair of scissors. Actually I was glad it *was* dark in the end because it was a pretty embarrassing thing to happen. Now I'm reminded of that incident every time before class when the instructors ask 'have you all got your shoelaces tied up tight?' Mortifying.0

Two words: Swamp *kitten*.
Whenever I work out, I hardly sweat anywhere other than my knees and my butt. It seriously feels like I am on a slip and slide when I am on the resistance bike. It's been so bad that I've slipped straight off of the seat. Awful, awful, awful!!! What is worse is that my coworker also goes to the gym, and he was there and watched it happen while running on his treadmill (did I mention he is in terrific shape??!). Auughh!!!0 -
ok i think this is the best thread ever on mfp. bad day= semi-gone!
i've got a couple
- i was running outside with my friend one day, which i NEVER do because she is in much better shape than me...we were about 8 minutes away from home and someone drove my and honked (i guess they knew us) and it startled me so much i feel and scraped my knee. running home and attempting not to get too much blood on the sidewalk was pretty fantastic.
- i was running on the treadmill a few days ago, wearing those soffee shorts...basically, they fit me a lot better 20 lbs ago. my thighs started to rub together and it really hurt, but i wanted to keep going and they didn't even look red, so i did. after getting off the treadmill and getting over my pride about finishing the run with VERY sore thighs, i looked down...and there was blood. lots of blood. ALL OVER!!! lol
- this isn't mine, its my dads...he goes to the gym almost every night and wears sweatpants over his running shorts. one day apparently he forgot the shorts, so he took off his pants and sat there for a good 30 seconds before he realized it...i guess he thought the looks were b/c of his abs or something lol0 -
I was on that thigh thing, abductor mebbe?
The one where its on the inside of your legs and forces them open and you have to push them closed and its attatched to weights....ANYWAAAY (sounds like a molesteror machine)
I was doing that
I stopped to talk to someone
My best mate put it on the heaviest weight
My legs got wrenched open
All the muscles ever got pulled
And I screeched:
"YOU'VE BROKEN MY VAGINA"
Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared, and I hobbled away
OH MAN. I have the EXACT same story, only with my gym bestie instead of my regular bestie, lol.0 -
Oh man. Thanks for such a good laugh.
No embarrassing stories for me, but I am a clutz, so I'm sure there are many to come!0 -
Bwahahah!0

Thankfully, the only person who knew the whole deal was me:
Went to the gym this morning and got through most of my workout. I got through all the weights and then to the treadmill...and about 9 minutes in I started to feel bloated. I knew what was yet to come, and before anything happened, I dipped off the treadmill and headed to the bathroom. I couldn't get my damn belt off and it literally felt like my lower stomach was going to explode. It was so painful. Thankfully, it was just gas though...oh so I thought.
So now that I was relieved, I headed back to the treadmill and kept on jogging. Then, 15 minutes later, I felt another warning rumble and knew what was going to happen. Unfortunately, and ironically, as soon as I came into the stall, a woman came in as well. But I didn't care. I went right back to the treadmill, again, and continued my jog, UNINTERRUPTED

I was once doing plank jacks for my personal trainer, was wearing the wrong bra and my boobs popped out of my shirt!! I wanted to cry I was so embarrassed..instead I got up readjusted myself and went on to the next exercise. .
This is my current fear. Can't find a workout bra that keeps the girls in while doing planks & pushups!0 -
One of my friends was swimming at pool at the gym. She couldn't understand why everyone was looking at her as she got in and out of the pool. When so got back to the locker room and saw herself in the mirror she realized the chlorine had help wear out her swimsuit and it had become totally see through.
Yes - same thing happened to me. A lady who was in the pool even followed me to the locker room to tell me that my suit was totally see thru (it was so faded from the chlorine). I threw the suit away in the garbage right there & then at the gym. LOL0 -
bump for later..I made it through 4 page and the tears are rolling down my face....0

The first day I went to the gym on campus, I was waiting for a girl to get off of one of the elliptical machines and doing the bike while she was on. Finally she got off and cleaned it and went to the bathroom, so I went over there to get on it. When I got there, I noticed an empty Gatorade bottle and so I took it over to the trash assuming that she had just forgotten it was there. When I got to the trash can, she intercepted me and said "What are you doing? That's MY bottle!" I gave her this look :huh: She gave me this look :mad: so I gave it back to her and said "I didn't know you were so protective over your trash... :noway:0

The second is much more recent, and didn't happen in the gym, but it's too hilarious to not share. I used to have an old washing machine that sometimes didn't rinse out all the laundry soap from the seams of my running shorts. It started raining one day during a run, and the rain, plus the friction of my thighs rubbing together generated a prodigious amount of lather that appeared to be coming from my v-jayjay. I was far from home, so I had a long way to run on a busy road with all these suds flying from my crotch. It took me forever to figure out what caused it.
mental image almost made me wet myself.0 -
By far the BEST board. I'm about to have an embarrassing moment from laughing so hard...0

girls, get a sports bra! You can get them for, like, fifteen dollars at TJ Maxx. Don't get the cute, flirty tank top bras. Those are for runners, not jumpers or plankers. You need something that will get you flat chested. It sucks and is unattractive, but its the most comfortable and you don't have to worry about flailing or falling out. 0

She prolly fills it up with water and reuses it. I reuse my vitamin water bottles because they are the perfect shape and size for taking to the gym. Also, recycle, don't toss plastic!
Lol, that's all. 0 -
i tripped and fell on a treadmill, sprinting, and hit it, and it immediately shot me off the back into the wall.....................
Ouch!!!0 -
I had just started a spin class (my second ever) and I noticed the seat was loose. It kept moving side to side as I was peddling hard, but I didn't want to stop because I knew how hard it was to get going again and my feet were really strapped in. Sooooo, long story short, the seat popped off and I totally fell off the spin bike. I think I am the only person I know who has crashed on a stationary bike.0

Gotta bump this one for when I am not swamped at work!0

I double up. Only current solution I could find.0
