    Yep, I have my days especially when I have been eating lots of fiber when working abs and lower body. Have also done it while working with my Chiropractor, a Physical Therapist and my Massage Therapist. One of the advantages of being mature, it doesn't bother me as much as it used too. LOL

    I read this post the other day and then went to work out at the gym. I got the giggles so bad as I watched people walking around because all I could think was is he crop dusting?!?!?!?

    I think people thought I was crazy, walking on the treadmill, giggling to myself.:laugh:

    I do, especially on lower body days. Those exercises that put pressure on the midsection, squats, deadlifts, leg press etc. really gets that gas moving. The fact that I workout right after my morning coffee doesn't help, I think the warmth of the coffee gets the fart cannons primed.

    The key is to try not to fart in the middle of the exercise, because you can't control the sound and you have to stand there and smell it. I prefer to hold it and walk to a far off corner of the gym, let it out, and walk back to where I am working so as to spread my gas evenly around the gym. No point in making one part of the gym suffer disproportionately, I figure.

    Of course, there are times when a pant-splitting fart rips out right at the bottom of a squat. Not much you can do there except try to cover up the sound with grunt.

    What are your gym farting techniques?

    Heavy deadlifting days can be really bad.

    Not exactly a gym fart, but work-out related...

    It's unseasonably warm around here right now, so I went jogging tonight. I kinda zone out with the headphones on and all that, and I jogged past a group of people standing outside their garage... loudly blasting *kitten* on each step. Serious, honking blasts that I could hear over the metal blaring in my headphones. They all stopped what they were doing and stopped talking to each other and just gawked.

    I gave them the "'Sup!" nod and kept on moving.

    All the time! When I do aerobics, it happens to encourage the air downwards and sometimes pump with every step I take. The oxygen capacity of the room is greatly diminished...

    :laugh: All the time hahaha

    If I know it's going to be bad I'll sidle up to a big group of guys, let it out as silently as possible and then evacuate the area. Bonus points if I get to watch the theatrics of people trying to figure out who did it from across the gym.

    Yes, I take full advantage of the fact that as a female, they are probably not going to suspect me. :laugh:

    That's what the fan on the treadmill and ellipticals are for: to get smell the hell away from you!

    I had my fun, RFLMAO moments when i was tring Shakeology. It gives me wicked stinky gas... my 3 y/o would call me out Everywhere and of course I couldn't help but laugh. Her sweet little angel face, golden curls, blond hair and hint of freckles, that adorable voice with sass saying, 'MOMMY! I smell your fart!"

    ETA: i am laughing so hard right now!

    The one that gets me best is the ab machines almost like someone squeezing my stomach. It only seems to happen when someone's next to me too. At least they are short popers not squeekers. Thing I find gross is people shower so there's lots of steam in the bathroom and someone will drop anchor so it has extra potency.

    Don't be disgusting.
    Spend an extra 5 freakin minutes "sitting down" to avoid the issue.

    Had some homemade chicken cacciatore last night before Zumba and lets just say I'm very glad the music was loud. Didn't stink though so that was good. All sound, no fury.

    Try doing a Yoga class with Senior Citizens. More gas than Strickland Propane.

    So it wouldn't be wise to light up a ciggie then?

    It was just last week when I ate something at lunchtime that didn't agree with me and I then had to go to PT session that afternoon...better to own up beforehand and say "Look, I ate something that didn't agree with me and I've had wind all afternoon" and because I was so honest...I surprisingly didn't have a problem, even with the heavy strength training! :)
