    And let's not forget the loud talkers that like to take hostage a piece of equipment and discuss their private lives for a half hour.

    YESSSS. This annoys me more than almost anything else at the gym. I go to a small local gym and it's great for the most part, but the owner is one of the LOUDEST people I have ever met. It's not a large place, but I shouldn't be able to hear every word you say when we're on opposite ends of it :explode:

    I was just complaining about the people that actually GRUNT loudly in the gym. WHY??? I dont understand how that makes anything better. If there is someone out there that can explain why disturbing everyone else by grunting so loudly it is painful for the rest of us everytime they lift a weight I would be thrilled to know. Man, all I can think to myself is that they might actually poo themselves if they are not careful..LOL :) Sorry...had to say it!

    i really dont have a problem with most of that. one thing i agree about is i dont like people that drop weights when there is a policy against it.

    in general "the coach" seem like they are trying to help. ive had people give me good pointers.
    whats wrong with the "meat head" taking supplements and making loud noises? if that is what motivates him good for him.

    i can see how grunting lets you tap into your inner animal for difficult challenges. even some tennis players grunt!

    If they're not bothering you, what do you care?

    The best part is laughing at them while holding there stare, most will look away first

    Anyone else got loads of wannabe MMA fighters all of a sudden, shadow boxing inbetween sets, one nob end in my gym was hitting the concrete support beam like a child practicing for the Hill Valley Karate tournament. And he was about 40 which made it all the worse

    If you are not grunting then you are not pushing your self hard enough.

    I dont agree with you there mate. I think its just a habit that people pick up. Its not something that shows effort. I never heard marathon runners grunting, but they run over 26miles in 2.04.

    Its not something that annoys me
