This time, I asked them to list their pet peeves of the gym, the things they hate seeing people do while they're working out. Here's what we came up with.
Gym Pet Peeves
I really can't stand it when a member...
- ...hangs onto the treadmill while walking at a high incline. Get your hands off!!
- ...uses their cell phone during their workout (to text, call, browse FB, or play candy crush)
- ...when you can hear someone's feet hitting the treadmill but they're completely oblivious.
- ...thinks they're at Crossfit and drops their weights.
- ...does repetitions of only 25% of their range of motion (and does 100 of them).
- ...doesn't wipe down their profuse sweating.
- ...hogs a machine by "resting" on it for 2-5 minutes between sets.
- ...goes for an impressive weight while ignoring their form.
- ...does more and more and more crunches (and only crunches) in an attempt to get a six pack.
- ...sticks to their gender roles; guys in the free weight area, girls on the cardio equipment.
- ...is in the gym for an hour without a single drop of sweat.
- ...comes to the gym with full makeup on and their hair done up.
- ...sounds like their constipated or trying to pass a kidney stone/give birth with every rep.
- ...can be smelled halfway across the gym 10 minutes after they have left.

Questions

2. Are you guilty of any of these?
3. What have you seen in your gym?
DREAM. BELIEVE. ACHIEVE.
