Whats everyone pet peeve?


Resolutioners.

Most pet peeves can be avoided by going to the gym at 5:30 in the morning. No juiceheads, no business guys talking on their phones while sitting at a machine, no counts with too much makeup and a bitchy attitude, and no noobs.

My pet peeve is that the gym is populated with preening douchebags like you people.

I've noticed a good many folks lately who play music through their phones without wearing headphones, which annoys the crap out of me. One morning I forgot my headphones so I did what I assumed was common sense and courtesy...no headphones no music. Some guy came in with his crap blaring, so I just said to heck with it and pulled up my George Strait playlist and let it rip. I happened to have a newer phone, so mine was louder. He got the point and shut his off. I can't stand when folks do that though.

If there's not a good bar to rack weight and there's nobody waiting to do squats, I don't have a problem with this.

My pet peeve personally, is throwin the 90# dumbbells across the floor.

Not much really bothers me with other people in the gym, other than someone not reracking their weight and extremely loud grunting.

Grunting when you're struggling on the last couple of reps is one thing, but when you're practically yelling from the first rep in and you're doing 10-12 reps, you're being completely unnecessary, ridiculous, and you're searching for attention.

Not quite champ. Bar, bumpers, power rack, bench, DB's, KB's at home in gym. No need to deal with morons.

When you see a hot babe that's working out and her tank top is wet with sweat between her tits.....and you can't do anything about.

Mine is the bloated he-man who stares at me like he wants to kill me when I am using the squat rack area for my 10 minute stretch before I trot my mile on the indoor track.

I also hate it when I walk around naked and these young guys look at me with disgust because my long ballsack is hanging and swinging around. I know they don't want to see my droopy nutsack but it feels good to be free.

Why are you stretching in a squat rack? You're the a-hole in that situation

Assholes talking on the cell phone.

I am sure everyone else in the gym loves to be subjected to your conversation.
