annoying things people do at the gym

The only thing that bothers me is perfume/cologne/strong BO.

Using a class studio for your own personal workout, up until 45 seconds before a class is supposed to begin.

Grunters and groaners and men who don't know they're grunting and groaning and grossing everybody out. Are you having an orgasm or heart attack on that elliptical, sir?

The bolded^^ - noone is impressed by your awesomeness.

And, if I already have on make-up when I put on my work-out clothes then I certainly don't take the make-up off!!!

Exactly. Wtf?!?

People that don't rack their weights or wipe down the equipment after they use it.

HOW DO YOU NOT SMELL YOUR STINK?

+1 million.

In my gym, I also see the stinkiest people re-wearing their gym clothes. So freaking gross, because they are clearing sweating in and not cleaning their outfits before working out again. And then I'm the one that has to feel awkward when I want to get as far away from the stench as possible.

There's one lady who's there almost every morning when I am at 5:30 AM, walking on the treadmill with her laptop propped up. To make more room, she tosses her towel on the treadmill next to her and sometimes will have her water bottle in the other machine's cup holder because hers is holding her phone.

There's another young woman who will put a towel and water bottle on an elliptical and treadmill to reserve them. She goes hard and fast on the elliptical, jumps off, jumps on the treadmill to do a cool down, then jumps off and goes back to pushing hard on the elliptical. I don't get it.

It's called supersetting and they are saving equipment to do supersets.

But why does this even bother you? Not slowing you down, not impacting your workout. Who cares?

I mean, unless they are hogging the mirror putting on lipstick why do you think they should wash their face before exercising. I'm coming from work, going to the grocery store after, and stopping by inlawas on the way home, why should I remove makeup to only put back on later?

Why do you need makeup for the grocery store and visiting in-laws? Just curious

Why do you give a shit what someone else puts on their face? Just curious.

People who don't put weights in the correct spot. I'm not just talking in the weightlifting areas, but in classrooms.

The Bodypump rack has 3 weights. And they're all different sizes. It's super simple - lightest on top, heaviest on bottom. How hard is it to put weights back in the right place?

People who wander in and grab or put back equipment in the middle of a class. What on earth is wrong with you?

Women with husbands/partners who are grunters - please talk to them. It's gross. It's really really gross.

So.... you think women who wear athletic pants shouldn't have athletic thighs? Mmmkay I'm so sorry for your delicate eyes. Maybe you can make them stronger by doing sets of eyerolls? I'm doing them right now!

Cameltoe in general is kind of gross, regardless of your size.
