Gym Sins

The gyms around me dont allow children unless they are 12yrs or older. For those under 12 they have a daycare thats only $2

Farting, peeing in the shower, cruising in the locker and steam rooms.... Can't a guy get a work out without getting wizzed on or looked at as a hot piece of meat?

I've been working out a long time in various clubs and have witnessed more than half of these over the years. My biggest pet peeve is the cell phone. Can't you go 2 hours without talking on the phone? What did we do before cell phones? My other pet peeve is the grunter. Yeah, we know you're in the gym but I am working out as hard as you and I don't grunt. Great list!

I think people who feel uncomfortable about being stared in the showers should take a shower at home. Those who are from alternative lifestyle will stare whether that person likes or not. Even in the steam room if that person is dumb to go naked then yea he or she deserves to be stared.

I believe bringing your children to the gym is an offense.
It is very annoying and disrepectful of the parent to bring them with them.
Not to mention dangerous.
They let them play on all the equipment.
Run around like crazed kids.

What a vague, made up peice of crap list. Whoever wrote this should be slapped in the face.

One word! Deodarant. There is nothing worse than someone only to stgetting on a machine next to you when you're about 30 minutes into your workout when you start to smell a vile, offending odor. It's then you realize it's the person next to you.
This has happened to me a few times and it really annoys me to have to move to another machine because the body odor is just horrible!

Just imagine what germs were on the rocks where she cooked the grilled cheese.... nasty

I was thinking of joing a gym that's on my way home from work but thanks to all of your comments, I've changed my mind. I forgot that people can often be rude, self-centered, disgusting pigs! I realize there are many who aren't but the bad ones ruin it for those of us who simply want to get a good workout without all the exhibitions and obnoxious drama! Someone earlier mentioned open air cycling .... great idea!

YOU'RE NOT EVEN GOING TO MENTION THE SEX!

And the comment on the farting one too... thats another gross one. Which reminds of the horrid smell that the womans bathroom sometimes has... one day it was so bad that i heard at least 3 women complain to the manager..besdies me. IF you stink that bad, keep your nasty self at home or at least wash up..disgusting!

EEEK, people at the gym can be disgusting. A few weeks ago a guy we see often when we go early in the morning came in BOXERS and a stretched out shirt...but boxers, nothing on top. I was really grossed out even more when he sat facing the mirror doing lat pull downs--yuck. I had to leave.

Oh ya, and I saw a comment on farting, I agree that is gross when you walk through a thick cloud of pure smelly nasty-ness. Good call on that one!

There is this woman that goes to my gym and everytime she comes out of the pool or sauna and back in to locker room, she sit down and starts using a pumice stone on her feet. Totally grosses me out. If you have to do it, at least do it in the shower, not there in the locker room!

I can't believe one of the top 2 offenses next to leaving a piece of equipment with sweat dripping off of it wasn't even mentioned. These are people that come in with an odor that is like they haven't used deodorant since before their last workout. I guess it must be true about what is said about Middle Easterners. I speak mainly about the men here and the percentage is way too high.. The women generally don't have the same
issue. As God is my witness their are times being 10 feet away from one is still way too close, ditto with
some Hispanics. Again I speak of the men. The women generally don't seem to have the same problem. You can throw a percentage of white men in there too. It is amazing that the stench some of these people carry as bad as it is wouldn't offend the carriers of it and tell them they have to be offensive to others..
