    My biggest is definitely the douchebags walking around the locker room naked.  Nobody wants to see you naked (except maybe the person staring at you), especially if you're 65 yrs old and look like a 130 pound prune.Submit

    It's laughable to see punks working out in wife-beaters..........you got nothing to show bitch, LOL. It's ironic that most of the serious builders wear loose sweatshirts & such while the wannabes wear their UA & tank tops.

     & who waits to get to the gym to take a dump? I swear, every other time I go that someone has stunk up the locker room with a big "I ate mexican & drank beer last night" shit.

    -people who cruise the parking lot for 15 min looking for a spot close to the front door. You're about to workout, walk the extra 30 yards and consider it your warm up.
     
    Classic post bobcat. Reminds of when I was a kid driving cab. I pick up a fit, good looking 25ish woman at a hotel lobby, who was already in her gym shoes and sweats:
     
     "To Gemini Gym please"
     
    "Umm, the one downtown or the one across the parking lot?" ( Thinking she may have been in town on business and didn't know if there was a gym nearby )
     
    "The one over there"  (pointing)
     
    The old style meter clicked exactly 2 times.
     
    Three one dollar bills later, which was a hefty tip in percentage terms, I asked her, "You're going to work out for maybe an hour and a half, and you took a cab to the gym?"
     
    "That's right."
     
    There was really no answer to that. It took longer to get her gym bag out of the trunk than it did for the entire trip.

    When I didn't bring water, and am stuck at the water fountain behind the guy who is filling up his two liter water bottle all at once.

    Either buy a fresh water bottle, or step aside for a second so I can get a drink for two seconds. Instead, I have to wait for an hour and a half while this guy fills up his COSTCO sized water bottle.

    1. The guy who hits his lats up 55 differnet ways and yells like theres a 10 year old boy swinging on his nuts.. i can here this one bag-o-douche even before i get inside. (hes the same hero) that they had to make a rule no chalk in the weight room. i guess he prolly does the whole Lebron thing before his sets. person.

    2. the trainers who hog up about 1/3 of the machines for their 88 year old client lifting the machine minimum. i have no probs with old people staiying in shape but your not the president of the usa or anything.

    3. forget the wrong channel. the broken tv's that they never fix. or theres so much static it might as well be broke.

    4, same goes for broken cardio machines. same bike broke for 3 months. what does my monthly fee go to?\

    5. empty water coolers. happens way too often.

    6. i try to be nice and bring in my back issues of mage. SI, muscle and fitness and mens health. guy at the desk never says thanks and is a stuck up asshole. i bring in like a gym bag full at a time.

    7. younger kids who train in groups of 30!!! im always waiting for all 6 of them to finish their sets. worse then chicks going to the washroom together.

    8. prices... if you forget anything you can buy it there. shampoo, soap, gloves, towel, wraps/straps, only problem everything seems to be $14.95. my gym tried to sell protein drinks... never got off the ground.

    i dont know how i forgot that one

    i cant fucking stand people who do that, move to the side for a second and let me get my fucking sip jack ass

    Their up on createan and roids, and need to drink three gallons of water daily. That's great, but can I get a sip of water please. Thanks, take your gelled hair, wife beater, and fitted cap that is slightly askew, and go buy another water bottle, they're only two dollars. After that you can go half rep 225 on the bench, while your "boy" helps you lift on every rep. BTW, don't forget to grunt, and check your abs out in the mirror after every machine, even when they're not doing abs.

    These are the same guys who have four plates on each side of the squat rack, bend their knees a little bit, and then explode back up. Does he really think he can squat 350+ for reps??

    -fat chicks wearing tight clothes
    -hot chicks who dont wear tight clothes..cmon show off that ass!
    -people who dont put their fucking weights away, clean up after yourself
    -completing an exercise incorrectly...dumbs fucks thinking they can curl 50 lb dumb bells in each hand while they swing their arm and/ or throw out their back
    -not wiping the sweat off of bench's
    -not letting you take a sip of water before they fill up a bottle
    -people who take an entire row of dumb bells and are somehow using all of them
    -people who work out with 4 or more people
    -people who do incline, flat, and decline all on the smith press...go lift a real weight and work out some stabilizer muscles for fuck sakes
    -people who wear jeans to work out
     
    however i have no problem with:
    -dropping heavy weights on the floor...if im flat benching 100lb dumb bells in each hand...i go until those fucking things almost fall on me, you want to take it off of me go ahead, however my shoulder comes before whatever noise bothers you
    -people who walk around naked in the change room, i do it, im confortable with my sexuality, im not gay, and i dont look at other guys.  GROW the fuck up and dont look person
    -people who wear sweaters / long sleeves: this is directed to the person who said they hate this...are you a fucking retard? what do you care what another person is wearing? ever heard of body heat? know what it does? raises your heart rate, burns more calories, and allows you to sweat more...think before you make stupid comments

    Trainer who walk around with a clipboard while you're working out and ask if you'd like to sign up for a personal training session.  Or ask you if "you know anyone who'd like to check out the gym."  No I don't, now leave me alone and let me work out.

    i live in LA, and happen to go to the nicest gym, or atleast the one that is commonly known as the most luxurious.....needless to say my peeves are the following:
    1- clothing on men: some of these jackasses wear like ed hardy and christian audigier shirts or like low cut v necks and all stylish shit. I'm thinking to myself, dude, that shirt costs $100 and you are working out in it, dumbasses. Personally I buy my adidas dri fit or nike gear at Ross or TJ max for 5-10$ when it costs  like 40$ elsewhere
    2-clothing on women: some of these nasty women, not the hot ones that obv dont annoy me, wear ridic outfits... im talking short spandex bottoms with cellulite hanging out or this one grandma that is 70+ and f-ing nasty wearing a leotard, cmon dumb broads
    3-grunting: dudes that grunt, every rep, every exercise...give me a break, Im doing 2x or 3x as much, literally, and not making a noticeable sound and you fools are lifting and everyone within earshot thinks you are passing a kidney stone.
    4-talkers: look jackasses, i am at a athletic club for one thing---> to f-ing workout, not to watch your clown ass talk to other out of shape punks that come for the scenery(chicks) or to get noticed.  Get out of my way and if u want to talk go to the f-ing cafe.
     
    needless to say, it is ridiculous what we all see at the gym....ugh, it pisses me off.
     
    I apologize if I came unhinged and lost all punctuation and grammar

    People who show up January 1st with all their new shit on and you don't see them again.
     
    Newcomers who want to play in the regular pick up games and can barely dribble and cost you wins.
     
    Guys who use the locker right next to you when you are standing there and there are 50 available elsewhere in the room to use.
     
    Women who are regulars in the spinning classes and lose no weight.
     
    Guys who have calcified growths on their hands and play pick up basketball.

    man this thread is funny. I have a few.
     
    - There are two bench presses at our gym and one dude was using one so I was about to go over to the one next to him and use it. But when he was finished his set, he took the three 45's  on his bar and put them on the other bar that I was about to use??? I asked him if he was using it and he said no! lol wtf did he put three 45 weights on the bar then? Dumbey
     
    - hate presonal trainers who walk around and think they are better then you. One dude is half fat and he's a trainer lol.
     
    - guys that grunt all the time. I don't mind it when they are lifting a lot or something. But some guys do it the whole time they are at the gym lifting weights!
     
    - guys who take hours on a machine because they are talking to everyone at the gym. do your set and move on!
     
    - guys who use weights to lay their water bottle, towel on them when they aren't even using them! put it on the floor or on the ledge.

    To the peopel who said they have a problem with "sweat machines", WTF? What the hell are you there for. Some people sweat more than others and you dont even have to be fat to sweat a lot. I am on the eliptical for 55 minutes to an hour 5- days a week and I burn around 800 calories a day on that thing and I sweat my ass off like no other and then I do my weights after. I may be a little soaked, but I am curtious at least and wipe the benches down after using them. That is probably my biggest pet peev is when people dont wipe down after they use the equipment. Just the other day I had to tell these two fucking punks to come back and clean the machine off I was about to use, im not your fucking mommy, im not gonna clean up after you...They just looked at me and so did others like at least he spoke up. They felt stupid after that and left. You guys have some pretty funny peeves though. the fat chicks that just sit there and wait like 5 minutes between sets..LOL...

    Definitely agree with the guy who fills up the water bottle and waits and waits and doesnt let me get a sip. I have seen some let me in though, which is nice.
     
    I also hate the guy who belongs to the gym that tries to give everyone advice. its like, dude, I know what im doing go away. I see that shit with this 1 guy, and it's weird.
