This has become a problem at my gym. Creeps me out, but I'm afraid to say anything about it because I don't want to be accused of being a homophobe and end up getting banned from the gym. But its gross. I have zero desire to shower when I know that some guy is getting a BJ behind the shower curtain in the next shower stall.

Which gym is this? It’s not the Lifetime in Gaithersburg

I worked at the old Rio Sport & Health in Gaithersburg about ten years ago and this was an actual issue in the men's locker rooms.

Legend has it that if someone wants to get it on with you in the gym locker room, they’ll A) wear orange sneakers and B) tap their foot three times inside your stall. or even out by the machines. It is code for ‘meet me in the shower’. Or in the case of different genders, the tanning bed room or other secluded area.

I used to be a trainer when I was single. I can confirm the tanning room part. I’ve helped more than a couple SAHM’s work off some baby weight in the tanning room.

But that was 15 years ago. I can’t think of a club that even HAS a tanning bed now.

So you admit you slept with MARRIED women? You are disgusting.

Gross. I used to work out at that gym. Now I feel gross.

Wonder if this is a current thing at any other gym

Pffffft, they literally throw themselves at you when you’re a trainer!!! Yeah, they were married. And? Obviously hubby isn’t into them (or likewise) and nothing’s going on at home. Plus, they had a baby a year ago, and they feel like they need to prove something, that they’re still desirable or whatever. So yes, they come on to you. It happens. All. The. Time. I have no guilt. None. Zero. I was single, attractive, and I gave them what they were seeking, and had some fun myself. And got paid, although not quite for that. Call it a perk.

And no, IDGAF about their husbands. At the time, I was benching in the mid 400’s, had maybe 9% BMI, and looked like I was carved out of wood. Not the least bit scared of some dad-bod loser coming at me.

Here’s my advice to you: don’t like affairs? Don’t have one. And MYOB.

- people that loudly face time/talk on the phone while they walk at a snail’s pace on the treadmill. I do not need to hear about your friend’s baby daddy drama in detail while I’m trying to work out.

- people that wander around the gym not doing anything (sit on a machine, stand by the water fountain texting, walking for three minutes on a treadmill, wandering in and out of the locker room, then finally leaving). just stay home!

- this has happened to me several times: I approach a machine that looks unoccupied and out of nowhere someone appears and says ‘I’m using that’. Turns out they are doing a circuit routine and monopolizing 3-4 machines, all in different areas of the gym.

Let’s hear yours!

Who cares what they say? If your butt is on the machine, and theirs isn’t, you’re the one using it. I would smile sweetly at them and say “you can have it back when I’m done”.

Why when there are 2 acres of free treadmills at planet fitness, as far as the eye can see, does someone walk over and get on the treadmill next to me? Why? And no they are not into me.

When was your gender reassignment? You should start an AMA!

Shameful. Just bc you were ripped doesn’t mean you should engage in this behavior.

Curls (or anything else that can be done elsewhere) on the squat rack, not re-racking your weights, doing endless sets of something because god forbid someone else get to use whatever equipment you're on.

People who don't wipe off machines suck, but getting annoyed at people for sweating? In a gym? You know that's not under anyone's control, right? Good lord.

Besides stinky people especially in spinning my list includes:

I hate latecomers who are regulars with a passion

I hate latecomers who shove themselves into spots where there's really no room for them--no I'm not moving over for you

I hate instructors who ask me to interrupt my yoga practice so I can move all my stuff over to make room for the latecomers

I hate the Euros old people and others who think it's wrong to turn on the fan when it gets hot

that's all I can think of now--there are probably more

You must work out at my gym!

Also, older women that are in the front line of a fast moving class and can never catch on and go slow, it can be dangerous.

I call troll. There’s no such thing as a 9% BMI, and a trainer would know that.

My pet peeve is kids are not supposed to be in the pool during water aerobics class. Written down rule posted on wall and schedule of the pool that is circulated....
and almost every class "mom or grandma" brings there kids and lets them play in the water. Then goes and do there own thing in the locker room, their phone, or the main gym. It is dangerous for the kids as people are doing water aerobics. It is not the job of the life guard and the people in class to watch your damn kids. Follow the rules and don't bring them till family swim. And the answer of I have been a member of this gym forever.....rule still applies.


Oh and then the people that have an accident of their kid or adult in the pool and don't own it. They don't tell anyone and they get out of the pool and wait for someone else to find it. Then they have to drain the pool and scrub. Seriously old people and kids...wear diapers.

I’m a SAHM and work out with a trainer, and more power to you. I have no interest in actually cheating, but the fantasy of it is fun.
