    Well if you're dressing like your profile pic at the gym, no wonder! ;) The resolutioners are still at my gym too and i second the '*kitten*' quote. lol. I normally give them until March or so. Don't worry! They'll drop off eventually

    I would think you guys, of all people, would be welcoming and supportive.


    :noway:

    Signed: A "resolutioner" who ain't goin' nowhere. :wink:

    I do wipe down the machines and anyone with common sense would without having it spelled out to them.

    That being said, the gyms should definitely educate its new members. So...complain to your gym, and be pissed at stupid people..not just "resolutioners."

    Might want to lay off the steroids btw. Your rage is showing. :laugh:

    You may want to do some more research before you start opening your mouth about how little you know about steroids.

    I waited three weeks into January for this reason. But the gym seems to only be getting busier and busier on Mon and Wed. :grumble:
  • lol I am a resolutioner...I wont lie, I did drop my Saturday AM ZUmba class: I did not like the instructor she made me feel like a idiot becuse i was having trouble keeping up, that and the class is too big, you cant even move without bumping into someone. Ill stick with my monday and Wendsday class and jillian michaels DVDs at home the rest of the time.
  • Once the warmer months come along. they will be gone!
  • Haha! This post made me laugh. Thank you so much. :drinker:

    *looks up a few posts*

    *sniff sniff*

    I smell a troll.
    I agree with OP. Gym etiquette! For the love of all that is sanitary and timely.
    Or, do what I do, put on your running shoes, pound out 5 miles, come inside and do a round of P90X, Jillian Michaels, Insanity or TaeBo (at least until you learn your manners)
  • This post is why I do not go to public gyms. I will stick with my little bowflex and my workout videos. At least I can cuss at home and look all nasty with no one else complaining if I sweat on stuff and not clean it up right away. Besides that is just nasty, you don't know where those peoples hands have been. ball sweat *shudders* nasty.

    And I am a resoluntioner and I am here for the long haul even if my husband isn't. I wanna look sexy sitting out by my pool.

    I was just using a little humor. I wasn't really ranting about resolutioners ;)

    We welcome you all, as long as you use gym etiquette.

    accusing someone of being a drug addict is not as funny as you apparently think it is...

    They're all gone from mine for the most part.
    The one's who have stuck it out however leaving freaking 150 million pounds on a free weight bar than leave it in the middle of the free weight area and never put it away. WHO THE HELL do they expect to do that????? I didn't know who did it so I just complained really loud about it and continued with my little 10 pound weights.

    next time ask someone like me for help. i pick things up and put them down

    Technically, the heaviest weight on there is 45lbs. 99% of adults can lift 45lbs with their entire body...

    Although its still rude.

    Once the warmer months come I might be gone too. Tennis and outdoor running. Weights will take a back seat ;)

    why Mondays and wednesdays though? this is what i dont get. I left it a bit late tonight, went at about 7.30pm rather than straight after work at 5 and i had the swimming pool to myself for most of the night, apart from a women who got in, stood at the shallow end, sort of bounced up and down for 10 minutes holding onto the ladder, then did a length, hung on to the deep end ladder for about 5minutes, then swam down the shallow end and got out. she never even bothered taking her glasses off.
