Things you have noticed in the gym

I work out in my HOA’s little gym now. Bout the only weird thing I see is 75 yo’s wiping the machine down before they use it. Never after. Oh and they put the damn tv volume on like 80.

They're actually smart, because chances are the last person that used the machine didn't wipe it down.

Nobody wipes anything down anymore lol. Or racks weights.
I do though

When I look in the mirror I’m fatter and older than I think I am

pretty soon you will be wiping down the equipment before you use it....

And I know that when she thinks of me,
She thinks of me as “him.”
But unlike me she don’t work her frustration at the gym.

All the best cowboys have Chinese eyes, but it takes balls to say that these days ....

Back in the mid 90's there was this guy at my gym that wore a vertically striped wrestling outfit, like right out of WWE. He was big enough to be one of those guys. He had his "little buddy" wearing the same thing. The little guy reminded me of the midget rich guy that hired the Bandit to do the Coors run in Smokey and the Bandit. One day the little guy jumps on the bigger guy's back and the bigger guy starts doing squats in front of the mirror while grunting so loud you could probably hear it outside. It was crazy. I'm standing there saying to myself out loud "what on earth am I looking at".

Another guy that was maybe 5'2" with a big barrel chest was doing bench and bouncing the bar off his chest so hard I'm pretty sure he broke some ribs. We got it off him pretty quick, but like the guy in the OP's story.....he wasn't doing well.

There was a time back in those days when most of the girls there wore the spandex pants with a really tight thong over them. I haven't been in a public gym in years, so not sure if that's still a thing or not.

You said "midget" and I applaud you, sir.

The thong outside the spandex thing ... I missed that... Drat !!!

Some guy changing while on the phone in his office
Anyone remember what podcast episode that was?

Is that before or after his nap in the closet?

Slower start, but this has turned into a really funny thread. Thanks, OP, for bring out the humor.

Reading this thread wore me out. I need a Twinkie and a milk shake

I’m not gonna lie, if I’m doing laying leg curls, where my face is pressed against the same mat everyone’s else’s is, I’m wiping it down before I use it.

I’m plenty ugly enough as is, last thing I need is to catch a ringworm smack in the middle of my forehead.
