    I wish my gym had a ban on................... women dousing themselves in body spray, hair spray, scented lotion, perfume, etc. Totally choked out last night getting back to my locker, walking through a veritable cloud of perfumigation.

    You should try Planet Fitness gym, they literally do have a ban on people who slam weights! They even have an alarm called the "Lunk alarm" that you can set off whenever you see someone doing it. :laugh:

    I wish my gym had a ban on...wearing makeup.

    I hate being the only bummy-looking bare-face girl there. :/ but at least I know my workout isn't going to cause me a breakout!

    Was just about to post the same thing. I would rather smell your stink than your perfume, please.

    my gym has a ban on all of those - yet no one follows it. Irritates me to no end - I'd like to be able to breathe.

    This, and for men too. There's one guy who comes in with cologne, hair all greased back like he's hitting the club... I've had to move to a different machine before because of him or the perfumey gals... yuck.

    Well, I don't belong to a gym anymore - I use the YMCA - but mine was the music that they blared through the house system. No matter the genre, it was always too loud.

    I drop my weights when I deadlift. It's a waste of strength to set them down nicely.


    I wish mine banned....

    Mullets.

    Haha - this!

    And I also hate the grunting/moaning that sounds like you're getting pleasured. You know who you are... and everyone else knows what I mean.

    Not a dman thing, I like all the weirdness, secret affairs, and crazies makes going even more fun especially when you know everybody and they tell you everything. My gym should be a sitcom!!

    exercise anorexics. I know it's a serious illness but it is hard to watch a skeletal girl kill herself on the elliptical for an hour.

    People who take up machines and space while talking on the phone, reading, etc, etc... and never working up a sweat.
