For some reason I'll never understand people that do the following....
- Leaving the water running full blast the entire time they're shaving, or brushing their teeth. wtf...
- Opening the sauna door (coming or going) as though they're entering a wild west saloon so it cools down very noticeably.
- Leaving the locker doors wide open afterwards.
-Not showering before entering the sauna. this really becoms annoying. 90% of people I notice do not do this. Some people skip their morning shower, workout in the afternoon, then bring it all into the sauna. You can toitally get away with it if you eat/live clean, but some people just smell. I'm guessing it's the fast food, cigs., alcohol, and other junk they consume on a regular basis.

Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
*People having IN DEPTH personal conversations on their cell phones while on the cardio machines.
Me too! My husband has a tendency to do that here at home and I remind him how much water he is wasting! He gets annoyed at me!!!
Also, I hate walking up to a sink at the gym and finding a big ole gob of hair in it. Some women blow dry and curl/straighten their hair and just leave the stuff in the sink! That really pisses me off.
Women sitting naked in the chairs and on the benches. A lot of them are older women who do the pool exercise classes and I know they need to sit to get dressed, but they could sit on a towel or something. Some women are too shy too change in the locker room so they go to the bathroom stalls to change after getting out of the pool. Then they get water all over the floor and the toilet and it is nasty. Personnel recently put signs up that say if you change clothes in the stalls you should clean up the water and that has helped!
Sorry, but I'm the Sales & Marketing Director for some gyms over here and people are trying everything except for taking responsibility for their forgetfulness if they missed the proper period for cancellation and it pisses me off how some of them harass my staff instead of asking nicely or sucking it up and staying until the next possible cancellation date.
We don't have hair in the sinks, shaving is not allowed - same goes for cell phones - and our members don't hog the cardio machines though, so I guess we're lucky
They love you so badly for sharing their sorrow, so pick up that guitar and go break a heart - Kris Kristofferson
Ha ha! I can well imagine how annoying that would be. I never understood how somebody shouting at you was going to help you push yourself anyway. If I'm trying to concentrate and bust out one last rep, the last thing I would want is some over-zealous dickhead calling me baby!
Yesterday this guy had a towel on the floor in the change room using it like a door mat and also to catch all the dead skin from scrubbing his feet for like 10 minutes rigorously with a pumice stone. Honestly...some things are best left for home. The same guy then blow dried his entire body with a hair dryer top to bottom afterwards... groin area...armpits ....everything...it's all so remarkably bizarre.

These are all examples of why I do not even go into the locker room at my gym anymore. I change at the office or home before I go.

And I don't feel right when you're gone away
Ugh, that is the worst. I banged my head pretty good on an open locker after reaching down to pick something up. Ended up bleeding and everything.
Jw
ick...
my new gym and the locker room are spotless. they clean it CONSTANTLY. I've never gone to the shower without bumping into the cleaning lady first. if you live where there are Sports Clubs I highly recommend it for cleanliness.
Oh how I agree with this! I own a small fitness center myself, and deal with that kind of crap too.
LOl - I've been teaching some small group personal training. I wonder what they'd do if I start yelling that.
I guess, personally I'd like to people to PAY ATTENTION when I'm giving an important form tip in class. Invariably the ones who are gabbing as I describe body placement before an exercise are the ones who tell me later that it didn't 'feel right' :rolleyes:

also, he wears those thin tank tops that expose pretty much your whole body. he's always nipped out, hence his nickname is "nips". i loathe him.
Apparently there were some dudes at my gym... a family... that would all blow dry their male parts right out in the open with the blow dryers in the mens locker room.
People complained and they were told they aren't allowed to do it any more!
What if that's the only way they can get blowjobs?
Every time i see this woman at the gym all she appears to be doing is showering and grooming herself!
Countdown to gross... 3...2...1... the other day...where she always changes which is at temp locker right next to my yearly rental locker....I found a douche box. Recently there is always grooming stuff... or like dirty "stuff" (used tissues etc...) around this spot.
I swear I have never even seen her on the gym floor.
I really think she just pays her $50/month so she would have someplace nice to get ready for work every day (and douche?!?!)
And oh... of course she always walks around all naked and shit.
*shivers*
Yep, I went the same way! No waiting for equipment, no having to brave the hideous sights in the changing rooms, no expensive memberships...
what do i find weirder??....
some guy at a health club drying off his nutsack after taking a shower???
or the fact that YOU were checking him out the whole time he was drying off his nutsack.....and then YOU decided to come here and share the experience that you had watching this guy dry off his nutsack????
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
You shouldn't judge everyone by your own standards! Noticing somebody's odd behaviour is not the same as staring at them doing it!
i shouldnt give you people a hard time...
its not my fault that you enjoy checking out naked men in locker rooms...
and then discussing those naked men on the internet....
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
As opposed to you, who seems to be prolonging the conversation of naked men, once again indicating that you're a chutney miner!
hehehehehehehehehehe...............

well given that he drinks protein shakes and energy drinks WHILE he is working out, it would make sense that he has to burp and fart the whole time. he is a gross, old, short man with a porn star mustache. he could be a character on a tv show. nips manless.
Why do they do that? Are they trying to avoid skin problems or something? I think I'm glad I mainly teach women.
And at my facility, I'm not kidding, we had an AMISH guy (probably 30 or so) stumble into our facility today. He was looking for the bus station which is around the other side of the mall where my center is. My clients told him where it was as they were coming in to class, but he wasn't leaving (I teach aerobics) - he was just standing there as I was calling out the moves, so I had to tell the class to keep going, hop off the stage, throw on my hoodie, and escort him out! It was the wildest thing ever. When I came back in the whole class burst out laughing.
