Those People at the Gym

big butts are fine -but big butts bouncing up and down to where they're going to have the owner of said big butts britches will fall down - aren't good.. not in a public environment...
Appropriate gym attire means that body parts that bounce (boobies, butts and balls) should be supported so other people shouldn't be subjected to said bouncing

I use the mirrors to monitor my form on anything that I can. Even after all the years lifting, on something like an upright row, I think I am getting the bar high enough, when in reality I'm not even close.
It's even applicable for me when doing cardio. My legs drift like a madman when I get tired on the bike.
least that's my $.02

Cardio bunny to the nthdegree...
Chickie at the gym last night -and I've seen her there before... She'll hop on the treadmill - pump the incline up to about 15 so she's walking at a tilt - leaning back so her back is slightly arched, holding on to the handrails as her life depended on it and walking at a speed of 3.0mph... for over an hour...
Now it's impressive to be able to do that - for that length of time without having a heart attack... but every person who walks behind her - she checks out as if to say -look what i'm doing - check me out..
The thing is though -the incline walking is supposed to be good for the bum - just noticing her bum - it's not quite helping much... I'd think a lower incline and a faster walk would probably be more effective - and maybe some lunges and squats...
Oh yeah and people who have digestive problems - shouldn't be allowed at the gym -I swear if the person next to me farted one more time -I was going to get a match and start lighting them...

Wow, Mal, you're just HILARIOUS! I about died with laughter when you mentioned flatuence.
You know, before I started running, I use to up the incline of my treadmill to 12 or 15 and walk at 3.5 mph, but certainly not for an hour at 15. That would KILL my knees. It's why I run level. She may have issues when she's older, you never know. Perhaps you should recommend to her a machine that works her butt muscles, huh?
I can see you saying to her..."Excuse me. I've noticed how you're in here every night walking at this incline. Now I understand that it's supposed to help shape your butt, but clearly it's not working out to well. Perhaps you'd like to try the butt shaping machine."
LOL...yeah, that would be hilarious. Never again will she look behind her to see if others are impressed. Haha.

I stopped going to the rec at my school because of the creepy locker room guys. The showers are your standard open style. Meaning there aren't any dividers, just shower heads. There are five on each wall. Usually I am the only one that jumps in the shower after working out. Then one day, this guy came in.
Nine other shower heads were open and he took the one directly next to me. Then he decided to start a conversation.
HAHAHAHA I WOULD HAVE TO CHOKE SLAM A MOFO.
I use the mirrors to examine for boogers.
I wipe them under the seats of the machines after I find and pick them.
That is one of my biggest pet peeves there is. I know I've talked about it someplace around here.
If you can't bend over and pick the weight up from the floor that you are trying to curl, you shouldn't be curling it in the first place.
The racks are for heavy exercises.
Period.
And b/c most gyms are stupid and only have 1 or 2 of them, you should have to pass a test and obtain a 'pass' if you want to use the racks.

After Googling Smith machine to see what you were talking about (gosh I am so uneducated)...I think you should go for it!
Not that I'm obsessed with underwear but i notice things...
Gentleman who was running on the treadmill in front of me last evening... now he gets points for running.. my lazy ass doesnt... however...
He was wearing thong undies - and his cotton jersey shots with a crop top that the faster he ran - the more of a wedgie he got... Oh yeah did I mention he was a little bit on the hairy side... Like a Nair Dip would have done him some good..
I mean I like some body hair but when back hair is clearly evident under the crop tshirt - then it's time to get some manscaping done... and well -thong underwear is never ever appropriate on men...

How is that even comfortable while running??? And what self-respecting man wears a crop top these days???
those that are there to attract other men? except for all the hair, which i thought was a faux pas... the thong wouldn't have been that bad -it was the wedgie from the totally inappropriate pants he was wearing that were really the problem... they looked like long legged boxer shorts... most fo the guys at the gym either wear basketball shorts - the knee length variety or track pants -these were just weird looking..

I had to go to Golds at 6PM last night, something I have avoided for as long as possible. Normally, I go sometime inbetween 11 and 12, but work has been nuts recently. It was such a bad experience (more on that in a sec) that I actually went up to the manager and suggested something of the like. My suggestion was that after the person comes in and is given the initial tour, and then pays, that they are required to go through a lesson in gym etiquette, and if they catch you acting like a douche after all of that, then a series of penalties are levied.
If EVERYTHING ELSE was busy, I could see that. ROM in shrugs is so small and linear that it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if other shit was being used. However, I am not a big fan of shrugs with the weight in front of you, I prefer having my arms directly to my sides, so you'll never see me using it.
I saw a girl working out in a pair of men's underarmor boxers as shorts this weekend. I had a nice laugh thinking back to when my mom convinced me to wear a pair of Genie boxers (From the disney movie Aladdin) to school in third grade, despite having to safety-pin the weiner hole closed (they had no button), because "they really are shorts," despite my skepticism.
There were so many different characters worth my animosity last night that I can't even make them into characters. Half of the things I went to do had weights stacked either randomly, or in reverse order on the moment arm of the equipment itself (One was even done to the order of 5, 10, 25, 45, from inside out). There wasn't a single weight tree that had any semblance of order left on it, when at noon every day, they are in perfect order. The dumbbell rack had zero order left to it, to the point where the 120's were right next to the 25's.
In the super crowded weight room, people would do stuff right in the middle of the walking asiles, and one guy even went so far as to just drop his weights randomly in the middle of the floor, and just walk off. People were monopolizing machines, doing a quick set, then sitting on the machine and resting/chatting for an easy 6-7 minutes between sets.
At the very start, I grabbed the available upright seat (the only one in the whole gym that is designed specially for sitting upright), threw my towel on it, turned and grabbed my 110's, and turned back, and some greaseball had taken my towel off, and had sat down with his 15's to do some concentration curls... He came very close to eating 220 pounds of metal. I put my weights down next to the chair, and stood right in front of him, inbetween him and the mirror, thunder in my face. He stopped, and started to say something like "excuse me," and I shook my head at him, and he shut his mouth. I stood there, saying nothing for at least 10 seconds. He finally said "Oh, is this your towel? Were you using this chair?" I still didn't say anything. He stood up and sulked away. I'm sorry, but he saw me drop my towel there, and in the three seconds that it takes for me to walk a few feet and pick up my dumbbells, he thought he was gonna be all cool and sneak in. That's rude as hell, and that kind of crap bugs me to no end.
Then there was a guy there that was maybe 200 pounds, but a super soft 200, that was walking around in a sleeveless underarmor shirt, upside down backwards visor, and lifting gloves (including wrist straps that he never took off), talking loudly about taking steroids to at least a couple of different guys, and flexing his bicep to each of them. I hope the juice sterilizes him so that my progeny never have to deal with anything he chances to produce.
Then, there was the guy that was there with a very attractive women that wasn't wearing very much clothing. When he wasn't doing his sets, he would walk around her, glaring at all the other guys there, making sure no one was staring. I had the best time messing with him. When I was about to leave, I made sure he saw me checking her out, then I gave him a knowing nod, and then a wink, then walked away.
Never going back during after-work hours again.
Stair Climber lady -
OK so she's using the stair climber which is better than I do (the height of that thing scares me) But she's using it -with her upper body completely draped over the handlebars... and her legs are barely moving up and down the stairs- I'm guessing she had the resistance set too high and had to use too much strength to get the stairs to move..
but dangitall - stand up straight and use it properly - draping over the machine does not give you a workout..
Oh yah and this was the same woman who was wandering around the locker room talking on her phone without a stitch of clothing on the lower half of her body... I almost went blind at the site of her pasty white behind.. .
