The one thing that really bothers me is people who enter classes late. One minute late? A little annoying. But at my regular classes, there are some people who routinely arrive to classes with 20 minutes remaining. Why are you here?!??!

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


I wear makeup all the time (except if I exercise first thing in the morning).

I find men grunting using weights is distasteful, if you cant lift it don't bring us all into your misery.

Every time, so not a one off that they forgot to bring a change of clothes. very odd, seems shorts would be more comfortable. Of course I'm not counting Otis, he is 84 years-old and wears a short-sleeve button up with pens in his pocket on the treadmill, I love Otis!!


Old people do this all the time. I think, in their eyes, jeans and khaki shorts not nice clothes, but ARE casual clothes suitable for sports and leisure
Activities.

Also, there's an old lady who goes to my gym and takes out two plastic grocery bags and puts her hands in them while she holds the treadmill or elyptical handles..,

Just sitting on a weight machine, hanging out and checking your phone. Yes, I know I can ask these people if I can use it but it's so awkward and more times than not, they say they're between sets. Ugh. Get moving.

Smell. People who smell. Of cologne or perfume, or in case of the man who got on the elliptical RIGHT NEXT TO ME when there were many others open, like sewage on a hot and sunny day. It was awful.

HOW DO YOU NOT SMELL YOUR STINK?

Yakking during class. There are a lot of housewives at my gym for whom it's a big social occasion, and we have to listen to them go on about Larla's soccer party, blah blah blah.

- People talking on the phone
- People who move weights/other equipment to a whole other part of the gym for their own personal interval workout.

I used to be a college coach and could go to the gym at any time of day I wanted so I would go really late at night when it was completely empty. I got so spoiled that now, having to go to a regular gym, I am annoyed by he fact that here are other people in the gym when I am, period. LOL

I don't care about make-up, but really strong perfume and cologne can be annoying. Also, I feel a little stabby when I want to just get a quick drink and people insist on filling up their 64oz. water bottles while standing in front of BOTH water fountains.

I'm just embarrassed for you because you look like a tool.

Really, this sounds like insecurity on your part. I don't wear makeup at the gym, but if you're really spending that devoting that much mental space to something that doesn't affect your workout at all, it sounds like you're stressing out at the gym instead of enjoying the endorphins exercise provides.


NP. I don't believe the makeup haters are in shape.


Wrong. Makeup hater here. D-1 athlete and sub-20:00 5K. Next.


Why are you looking at people's makeup? Shouldn't you be working out?
Your 5k time isn't that impressive. Non athlete here that can also run a sub 20:00 5k


LOL...if you're a dude, that's not that impressive. If you're a chick, prove it.


You're stocky and a hater. It's kind of pathetic.

Holy smokes, some people notice a lot. Most people are posting normal things but others ... their posts are why I don't join a gym and just work out at home. What an eye-opener this thread has been!

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!!!
