Things people do at the gym that you hate

Options
For me the peanuts that take the one spray bottle walk to the machine and spray and proceed to wipe HELLO!!! spray the paper towel leave the bottle for everyone else and piss off!

The people don't that believe in a buffer zone in the locker room or shower!

If there are 10 lockers in a row free DONT USE THE ONE NEXT TO ME BUFFER ZONE!!!!!

If there are 5 showers in a row free DONT USE THE ONE NEXT TO ME BUFFER ZONE!!!!!

just a couple of things that tick me off :)

    People using the equipment that I want to use. Selfish I know, but then that is about all that annoys me at the gym.

    I hate it when people ask me: "Are you done???" when I'm getting my 30-60 second rest between sets.

    NO.... I'm NOT done. Thank you very much.

    lol I can be grumpy too.

    I agree with Juliene. I would rather someone just ask me how many sets I have left instead of if Im done. If I was done, I wouldnt be using the thing, now would I?

    I hate (HATE) when people are talking on their cell phones while on the treadmill or elliptical right next to me. If it's that important go out into the lobby or locker room or something. Jesus.

    Ergh, I walked up to the squat rack to use it and some jerk had left over 120kg sitting on the barbell. So cranky.

    I had someone jump on the machine I was using after I left it for just a sec to go and get some additional weights, umm hello my towel and drink bottle were there!

    People who don't wipe down afterwards, people who don't put their weights back, people that make it blatantly obvious that they want you off so they can get on and people that leave their gym bags on the bench in the change room.... don't notice it so much now as I figured out the busy times and work around that.

    People that try to get in the Hot Tub with me right after a hot and heavy work out. I've had 2 fist fights with some fat sweaty guy that didn't believe me when I told him that there was no way in hell he was getting in there with me unless he had a shower first :explode:
