nycman530 New York, NY 64, joined Dec. 2010	Most of the people in my gym are cool, but there's always a handful of inconsiderate a**holes. Like today, for instance. Someone left his sweaty gym clothes all over the locker room bench while he was showering. It wasn't until he returned that he finally put his clothes in his gym bag. WTF! If people are so worried about getting their precious gym bag all sweaty, bring a plastic bag! If I wasn't in a good mood today, I just might have thrown the junk in the trash can! There are other annoyances, but this is one of the worst! Meet singles at DateHookup.dating, we're 100% free! Join now!

The owners of my gym keep a talk radio station on over the speaker system in the morning and the ones at the bikes have the overhead televions blaring to drown out the radio- If you put in your mp3, seems someone next to me always wants to chat---if I leave it home, seems that is when the duel noise level takes over.

I think it's more for attention then motivation. And if you have a cold, it won't be such a big deal to miss one workout. I don't need your germs!

josecuervosilv Downey, CA 42, joined Jun. 2010	Quote from josh_jm: People who do the lifts wrong, like not going down far enough on bench or squats and when people jerk up when doing deadlifts. Full range of motion isn't really a requirement unless a person plans being judged in a powerlifting contest. Personally, I have to stop about a couple of inches above my chest on the bench. If I touch my chest, my shoulder joints eventually start to hurt badly. All you need to go down to is where your upper arm is parallel to the floor in the bottom position. At that point, your chest muscle is pretty stretched out. Of course, if I could touch my chest without eventual shoulder joint pain, I would do it, but health and safety are first.

snowflake99999 Columbia, MD 37, joined Dec. 2010	oh i have sooo many, but for me it is: 1. not wiping down the machine, said before but really that is so nasty.. As a woman I don't want your ball sweat or inner vagina sweat touching my gym shorts. Just saying! 2. I'm not sure if its just me but.. When I work out in the AM there is a lady in the "women's" gym that sweats her a** off on the tread or elliptical so hard that the sweat shakes off onto me and every machine in a 12 foot radius. So if you sweat like a wh*re in church then wipe your body down every now and then for cryin out loud!, really who wants to be covered in anothers sweat! 3. Locker room crazys. You are old, you have wrinkles where I never thought wrinkles could be, but really, I don't appreciate a 10 minute long conversation with you stark naked about how commited I am. At the very least, put on some underwear or a towel before engaging in a conversation!! There is never a reason to approach someone naked for a good conversation! 4. The seriousness of a class. I go to the gym before work, then a class in the evening with my girlfriends and if im lucky a lunch class by myself(to prep and show off). This is our time to say hi, catch up and laugh at how out of shape and uncoordinated we are. Zumba, step, yoga, kick boxing.... what ever, we sign up to make a fool out of our selves, have fun and burn calories. We hang out in the back of class for a reason! We do take it seriously but when one of us is at breaking point, it is just funny. Don't hate and give evil glares because your "friends" don't come to classes with you or are way to out of shape to be seen in a gym class. Actually the cattiness of the gym should be #1 on this list!

Hey, if i've completely ignored you and increase the speed on my treadmill so fast that my feet aren't touching the ground because i'm hoping that my treadmill will take flight so i can get away from you, i think that means that you should leave me alone mr.universe, from 40 years ago. 2)when people approach me because they hear me speaking spanish and say "are you mexican?" hello, there are more spanish speaking countries out there than mexico! 3)when someone doesn't wipe down the machine and it is still glistening with someone else's sweat. how lovely. 4)when the only treadmill available is next to a class A pedofile or occupied by some old lady walking so slow, i swear she is sliding backwards. Or when some of the leg lift machines are being used by somebody just sitting there and staring off into space. but hey, none of these can compare to that awesome victorious feeling you get after a workout, and then all the hard work paying off during one of my soccer matches

My biggest peeve is when someone gets done with a machine and does not have the decency to wipe down the machine or tanning bed after use. I wipe before and after anyways but still, wish people would be more considerate to others. And if they do wipe down, some do not throw the wipe away, they leave the used wipe in the cup holder.

People who take up machines to have conversations. The list goes on and on... I'm one of those people who goes to the gym for exercise, or to avoid going to the bar for a major sporting event, so seeing others come to a place to make themselves better and not working out really irks me.
