Gym sins

D.A.L.U.I.:
That's a reality check, I've only experienced the sweat on the equipment business--I bring a towel and they have them, why can't these bozos do likewise--I HATE having to clean a piece of equipment before using it. Before Katrina I went to a "real" gym, old equipment but working, and some real characters--movie material type stuff, but at less than $300 a year, it was worth it. Now it's big corporate and more than $1000 a year and a little too "upscale" for my workout mood. I've got to find another real gym.
The sauna "cooker" is a hoot!
They don't mention training partners, usually ladies, who use both pieces of the same execise equipment rather than shaing one, thus monopolizing the station, while they gab and "rest!" That one swells me up too.

Yeah, that one really irritates me, too -- though to be fair, it is the old men and not the ladies that are guilty of this in my gym.
Not too long ago I was forced to listen to one side of an inane cell phone conversation while I was on the elliptical; that was really annoying. Another time I was on an elliptical next to some gal who was wearing a whole bottle of perfume that smelled like those vanilla candles. That was rather unpleasant.

Luckily I no longer have any of those problems. I live out in the country, 30mins from the closest gym, and with working 12hr shifts, I decided to invest in my own equipment. Now I can drive home after work and work out then crash instead of having to worry about a drive home after 12hrs of work then working out. I turned my sunroom into a gym and have bike, bench and home gym system in it. I also decided to go this way because with shift work it makes it difficult to get to a gym during their hours of operation.

Don't get me started......
The "dumbell-dropper"
1) When the gym is not designed for it (second floor??) and it's CLEARLY POSTED
2) When it is obvious that the a$$hole dropping them is CLEARLY doing it for the attention.
