lol at an adult trying to act all macho.

I woulda told him to fuck off and wait his turn. Or maybe when he asked that just say "Nah, I just want a place to sit and read"

I have no problem waiting for someone to finish their sets on a machine, but when they're doing it wrong is where I get really upset and have no patience.

I just wanna be like "dude, you're not doing it right. You may as well just get up now".

I'll confess to dabbing a little cologne on (And freshening my deodorant sometimes). BO isn't the problem...just attention whoring. The gym is always little bit of a meat market and almost everybody has their little attention whoring fetish to look or feel cool. Guy wearing his Rolex or other fancy watch; chick with the perfectly toned/tanned legs who never wears anything that would cover them, wifebeater or cutoff muscle t-shirt guy, old fart who flirts with all the young women...I could go on. I don't do any of those thing but I'm definitely cologne and conspicuous looking t-shirt guy.

At least nobody wears their designer sunglasses at my gym. It's not New Jersey for Christ sakes.

There's older guys that come in with bicycle shorts and a t-shirt sometimes. No clue what goes through some people's minds when they get dressed. LOL

this was from last night... I see a guy pull up to the disable/handicap spot in a Nissan GT-R, walks out perfectly healthy. Yes, he had a permit to park there, but I don't care if the permit is legit or not (most likely not), if you're healthy enough to walk perfectly fine into a fucking gym to workout, you should park like everyone else. It's people like that... that wonder why they get their cars keyed.

OT: my uncle in Vancouver does this, and it's fucking embarrassing going anywhere with him, we'd get out of the car and I can see people looking at us. My dad (may he rest in peace), used to be soooooo embarrassed that he'd fake a limp, to pretend he was the "handicap".

but that's what I mean... this guy was able to workout (I watched him do a circuit, so it was a casual full body workout). So, why does he need to park up front?

I mean, I hate to say this... (as you may know, I'm Asian), but I see a LOT of Asians that look healthy, yet they have handicap parking permits... I know my uncle isn't handicap... is this an Asian thing? And yeah, most of them have nice cars too... hmmmmmmm

I think some of them are in spinning/bike classes (i know since my parents are part time instructors). But I still see some members wear bicycle shorts with T-shirts and all they do is lift weights and/or cardio...oh its disgusting!

The creepy old dudes that smile & stare at all the young, fit girls. Really, you're 50+, we're in our 20's - it's not happening. Stop leering. I'm cool w/ talking to people, but don't *just* stare at us... we hate you because of that.

OK, not someone I "hate" at the gym...moreso funny if anything.

This asian lady today was on the treadmill doing about 3level walking on an incline with her eyes closed. She was like that when I got in the cardio room and was like that 10min into my session. Well, in the corner of my eye I see her trip and fall to one leg. Don't know if she fell asleep or not but first I was secretely like , but then like

Out of 19 pages but I'm sure it's been mentioned but still. The non wiper downer's... The small gym I go to has wipes and spray with paper towels in all four corners of the gym. From any area it probably takes 10 steps to get to one. Wipe your shit down! Especially the floor mats!

agree... especially for people that sweat profusely. C'mon man, I understand they're working out, and some people sweat more than others (they can't help it), but at least acknowledge the fact, bring a fucking towel or something

i get the herd mentality. when i first started my gym i diligently wiped. then i realized nobody else was doing it, nor was the gym enforcing it.

Yeah see people at my gym don't even have to bring towels! We've got two stations that have paper towels and simple green spray and two stations that have wet wipe dispensers. And like I said they're literally like 10-15 steps away from almost any area or machine in there because it's not a huge gym. People are just so inconsiderate

I hate the guys that come into the gym sporting UFC, Tapped Out, apparel from head to toe...(well, not literally "to toe" but if they made shoes, I'm sure these douche bags would wear them too ).

Every guy I've known that's seriously into MMA, do NOT dress like that. Sure, maybe sometimes a shirt promoting their studio, dojo or whatever... but NOT plastered with MMA shit.

...oh, and don't forget the MMA related trucker's cap, worn sideways or tilted

Reminds me of that Cheeseburger Josh video. Fat dumbass in a TapOut shirt got pinned by a random guy in a burger joint.

And I always wipe things down before and after I do a set. I always assume the person before me didn't do it.

This I didn't really "hate", I actually loved to witness. Recently these two 16 yr old'ish kids were taking turns with the EZ curl bar sit down curl. One of the kid were struggling and one arm was curling the bar higher than the other. Slowly but surely I can see they weight moving down the bar because they didn't have clips on. Sure enough...the weight falls off the one side and the kid almost dropped the curl bar. Couldn't help but then

I walked over and handed them the clips nicely and said to use them so they don't pop their shoulder out of socket for cryin out loud.
