1. Walking in front of me when I am doing something that requires looking in the mirror (any pressing motion basically). Really fucking annoying and a shame people cannot always just walk around or at least walk quickly through.

This is a weak imo, gyms are crowded, who cares if somebody walks in front of you and you cant check yourself out in the mirror for a split second. Other then that i agree with you....

I very much dislike peeing next to someone whom I see walk out w/o washing their hands, only to see them on the floor 5 minutes later with dumbells in hand.

split second is fine, it's when they stand in front to get weights or stand there and just chill that really pisses me off. walking in front of momentarily is okay.

i went into the steam room at my gym. this old fuck had a bottle of purple water, and kept pouring it on the rocks, causing your lungs to fill with hot steam that tasted like lilacs or some shit.

Not at a gym, but my friend peed on the rocks in a sauna when were like 12 years old. You can't imagine how bad it smelled, it stank for a solid week at least.

If it was on and someone pees on the rocks the following happens

- you can't really smell. It goes beyond the most horrific smell ever. Think about snorting salt or tabasco, you can't really smell it cause it burns your nostrils so bad
- your eyes go immediately blood shot. like instantly.
- the vapor feels weird. Its almost as if you can see the pee.
- if you open your mouth, you know how you can taste vapor? try pee vapor. which leads to the following...
- puke. you want to puke as hard a s possible. granted, i was drinking rum when this ocurred so that might have triggered it. we were 4 in the sauna when this hapenned, only one of us didn't puke (the guy who peed), and only one my friend made it to a toilet to puke. I puked in the shower and my last friend (the fat one) puked outside the sauna door

it was by far the worst atmosphere i've ever been in.

all this makes me very happy I workout at home

the cell phone thing really tilts me in general. Anywhere you are people are on their fucking phone. The worst is in line for something, like we all signed up to hear your inane, stupid conversation.

stfu, whore

Best line in the OP. I hate the locker room trolls that meat gaze (fags). I hate the guys that spot for you then lift most of the weight (usually they tell you that it was all you afterwards).

Quick story: I used to have this buddy at the gym. His name was Chip and he was an absolute fireplug. he was 5'6" and benched in the high 300's and was in his 40s when I worked out with him. He used to spot for our group al the time and always stood right over you as you benched. The thing is he was a huge sweater and wore loose gym shorts. So you would be benching and look up just to see a sweat drop slowly fall off of his ball sac and drift towards your forehead. It really was like Chinese water torture.

Annoying frat douchebags (ya stereotyping frats at my school anyway, but it's true here) standing in front of machines/racks and just blabbing with their friends instead of either using the machine or letting someone else use it

my friends that i worked out with for a bit over the summer were annoying too b/c they would tell me what to do/try to correct me on methods when they had done no research and were only bsing off the top of their heads. definitely prefer working out alone lol

get paid

private gym>public gym... by a lot

I got banned from a gym for tea-bagging chicks who were bench pressing without a spotter.
