I have a penis, and so does everyone else. They aren't going to see anything they haven't seen already. No reason to be modest, let's get in, get out, and go home after a work-out. We're there to get in shape, relax and go home! I'm not there to worry about someone else seeing what they already got. I frequently go butt-ass naked, as well as everyone else I've ever seen in the men's locker room hot tub. Then again, maybe that's just the difference between men and women. Men don't really care, and women are kind of prudes in the locker room!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32667793.post-1357491041075832712008-06-23T13:58:00.000-04:002008-06-23T13:58:00.000-04:00People who blog about pet peeves at the gym who lo...People who blog about pet peeves at the gym who look like they haven't seen the inside of a gym in decades really bother me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32667793.post-83692366128959455572008-06-22T17:18:00.000-04:002008-06-22T17:18:00.000-04:00women who get in the hot tub naked. you're not the...women who get in the hot tub naked. you're not there to take bath and the other women certainly do not want be in a jacuzzi with a with a random naked person. have the decency to put on a swim suit or at least some shorts and a sports bra.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32667793.post-3028162428012024522008-06-20T15:24:00.000-04:002008-06-20T15:24:00.000-04:00Guys: if you take the time to load 400 lbs on the ...Guys: if you take the time to load 400 lbs on the squat rack or any piece of equipment, have the decency to take it off.

Hanging around on the equipment after you have already used it. I don't care if you are talking to the person on the machine beside you, get off the machine so someone else can use it. <BR/>4. people that set several weight machines to their desired resistance in advance so they can do a "change-free" circuit. Just because you adjusted the resistance on a machine doesn't make you the owner of that machine. <BR/>5. gym employees who hide in their office playing on their computer<BR/>6. gym employees who have their significant other come "hang out" with them while they are working.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32667793.post-10290983503945438122008-06-11T14:10:00.000-04:002008-06-11T14:10:00.000-04:00Great post.Cell phone users should have membership...Great post.<BR/><BR/>Cell phone users should have membership revoked.<BR/><BR/>As should <BR/>* naked old guys in the locker room.<BR/>* Grunting, Dorian Yates want-to-bes who slam weights, do a rep once every 10 minutes and spend more time admiring themselves in the mirror.<BR/>* Women who work out wearing two pounds of makeup.

However you do not need to get out of the shower, fix your hair, apply make-up, look at your ass all while naked - use a friggin towel!<BR/><BR/>Exceeding the 30 minute time limit on cardio! - It sucks, i know I like to do 45 minutes myself but we all need a turn.

A couple of weeks ago I followed a woman on her cell phone from her car, to the check-in desk (who had to set all her stuff down and dig for her card, all the while holding the phone), then she just so happens to get on the elliptical next to me, and proceeds to talk to her girlfriend about everything under the sun, for the ENTIRE half hour she was on the treadmill. Then left the gym, still with that phone attached to her ear.

There is no reason you need to be checking your phone every 10 seconds to make sure no one called you. Plus if you are talking while "working out" you really aren't getting much of a work out. <BR/>Also shirts- wear them. I don't care how hot you think you look without a shirt, put one on. I'm not here to look at your gut.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32667793.post-47904141630333645302008-06-10T20:24:00.000-04:002008-06-10T20:24:00.000-04:00My pet peeve is loud cell phone conversations.

Just this morning, a woman at my gym had her headphones turned up so loud I could here them over my own! The same goes for gum cracking and really long, loud conversations. When I'm at the gym, I'm just trying to tune out everyone else and focus on my workout, and all those things are major distractions, which just makes my workout that much harder.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
