Gym Pet Peeves

It's that time again!!!  Everyone break out your gym pet peeves.

I am going to get the ball rolling with a few of mine, one which happened today and made me want to punch this lady in her baby bump.

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.

2. talking on the phone!  fucking prego lady yapping it up on FUCKING SPEAKER PHONE today while doing cardio.  stfu, whore, nobody came here to hear you talk on the phone.  My music was as loud as it could get it and she was still annoying the Christ out of me.  Please fall down a set of stairs approximately one week after you deliver your bastard child.

3. people that put their precious water bottles on pieces of gym equipment.  It's a fucking bottle of water, people, it can be placed on the floor and be just fine.

Post yours, thanks for your allowing me to vent

People that dont re-rack the weights and not putting dumbells back in the correct spot..so lazy of someone to do this. I see people do this all the time and its no wonder they still look like shit.

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

 1.  When there is a fixed horizontal bench free, but numbnuts decides to grab the adjustable bench.  Great, guess I'll just rest the front legs of the bench on the weight rack to do my incline press, assfucker.  I bet that guy does fuck asses.  And not in a wholesome Anal Avengers 6 way.

2.  If I'm doing supersets, and a douchenozzle:

a. sees me on both pieces of eqiupment back-to-back.

b. jumps on one piece while I'm on the other without saying anything.

c. doesn't get off when he's done his set.

d. cops an attitude when I ask to work in.

I know it's hard to understand, but I'm more than happy to let you work in, especially if I'm supersetting.  But being an obnoxious prick means I definitely won't wipe my bench down when I'm done.  And I'm a sweater.  (No, a guy who sweats a lot.  Most pieces of clothing are not sentient, and can't lift weights.)


3. Women who get offended when you take the piece of equipment next to them.  I mean, sure I could take the one on the other end, where there's no one around, but fuck it, the A/C duct is over there, this has a nicer view of downtown, and I'm not gonna rape you.  Don't like it?  You move.  It's a free country, last I checked.


4.  Guidos.

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