Things you have noticed in the gym

I


lol not a thing. Now they wear them on the inside but the yoga pants are see through.

I keep to myself at the gym and don’t judge others, but the grunters drive me insane. There’s no bigger “look at me” move than making obnoxious noises while lifting weights that are too big.

God bless whoever made these acceptable to wear in public. There are a few at the gym I go to who wear them well. I just go to a different area mid-set if they set up near by. I know my limitations on not being able to look even when I make a point not to.

Now you know how the moth feels…

Definitely lots of “Bros” at the gym. I don’t really care for it, so really don’t go often.

Craziest thing I saw was in high school at our local gym. A guy in his 50s or early 60s collapsed while on a treadmill. People rushed over and started performing CPR - EMS arrived within about 8 min, but he didn’t make it.

Had a guy in our neighborhood who was an attorney. In his second life he was “that naked guy” in the locker room. Would have full conversations with others etc… walking around naked all the time. Was never that friendly in the neighborhood however.

We used to have a judge like that. In the shower and locker room he’ll come up and talk to all the attorneys in the buff. On the street, stare straight ahead. Major power play I guess?

I attend the devils gym known as planet fitness… worst part is it’s in the ghetto here. Lots of homeless.

Notable mentions

Dude who uses cable machine to shadow box

Crack lady on stair stepper who yells gibberish for 2 hrs.

Dude in trench coat on treadmill running every day. Most certainly a serial killer.

Dude who delivers water to my bank… runs on treadmill with hands up at head height like a ghost or some shit.

17-20 year olds who workout in groups of 3-5 on the same machine. Or occupy two of the same machine while making sure they take breaks at the same time between sets

Another time I walked into the men’s locker room and looked left to see a bra on the ground next to the showers. First thought was oh shit I walked into the wrong locker room…. Then I saw the urinals and realized

Girls yoga pants that were too tight and split on the squat rack.

Watched several fights now specifically women.

Dudes who only go to the gym to talk to girls

Dudes who go to gym wearing sunglasses.. you be creepin hard bro

As I think of more I’ll come back

Yoga Pants, Just because they make them in your size don't mean you should wear them ladies.

My favorite is when people put the treadmill at a full incline then hang off the top of the panel...

I've never seen anything too crazy. Anyone have the guy wearing jeans, work boots and a flannel with the arms ripped off? He looked just like the guy in the Planet Fatness commercial. He was completely jacked and sounded like a grizzly when he lifted anything. There was another guy who had to be an "operator". Punisher tattoo, hat on backwards, operator beard. He looked like a Navy Seal that was 9 months pregnant. He acted like he was jacked, always checking himself out in the mirror. I nicknamed him the Donut Punisher.

Best thing I ever saw was two smoking hot women in yoga pants and sports bras working out together. They were on a cable machine, touching each other's ass to help with their form. Then they helped each other stretch. It was like soft core porn. Every guy in the gym suddenly had to use the equipment in that area. Anymore with all the people filming I keep to myself. Earbuds in eyes down. I don't need any problems. I also know my wife would not appreciate it, so I try to think about that when I'm there.
