| What is your kyptonite at the gym?
Posted: 2/20/2008 6:45:14 PM | My kryptonite at the gym is people who are wasting time, sitting on the end of a bench talking on a phone, shrugging with a 45lbs plate in each hand, doing bench and biceps 4 days a week. People who lift the exact same weight and do the exact same exercises month after month.
These things aren't enough to ruin a workout, but they truly get my eire up. | |

Not much else can faze me really, been to a whole bunch of gyms in different places in some pretty extreme conditions. I do not care much what is happening around me as long as I can do my thing. | |

Posted: 6/22/2008 8:57:49 PM | I am motivated to work out harder when I see big , bulked up men watching my weight workout and shocked at my strength. Spin class im motivated to workout harder when the sexy man in class is siting behind me ...watching my glutas maximus...
DISLIKE.... when ive got weights on my weight bench and some buffed up knuckle head cant walk over to the plates and get his own, but instead waits for me to go to the water fountain tp take my plates off my bar!!!!
Or when your working up a sweat, got your head phones on and hat pull low and some idiot still trys to interupt your workout to say a few unsmooth , played out lines... or worse to ask you out to dinner... LOL | |

The music bothered me. They never had a set type of music. Hell, at least 80's has a good beat usually. I splerged in an Ipod shuffler... that took care of that issue.
That guy on the tread mill in front of me who puts the speed on high then runs for a few seconds... straddles the belt... then runs... then straddles... then runs.
People who stand in front of the drinking fountain to chit chat. Either fill your bottle up or take a drink. Chit chat somewhere else.
... The hardest thing is when people point or laugh at the bigger people in the gym. It was hard enough getting out of the house to go TO a gym. But thin people pointing and laughing at us... well.... I am sure you can figure it out. Luckily, I rarely had to run into that at my gym... but I DID have to tolorate it from time to time. Or I would notice someone doing it to another one. It was heart breaking to say the least.
"""Hey!...Don't underestimate Groaning Loudly @ the gym!...I want the entire WORLD..the entire WORLD...to hear my squats!...I'm proud of my but-pinching Squats Dagnabbit and everyone should know!"""
Ya know, when I started going to the gym, I told myself I would never be groaning and grunting like that. Then I started bench pressing. It's kinda like one has to grunt to bring the strength up from deep inside.
I agree... I have worked hard to lift that weight... everyone will hear it!!
(And if they didn't, my trainer makes sure to speak very loudly when I have accomplished a new weight lifting level  ) | |

Posted: 6/24/2008 7:44:48 PM | | I could careless if people talk or not, I've got my ipod. Now body smell pisses me off, talking about being smelly before hitting the gym. I change my clothes every damn day, never wear something twice during that week. I go in and do my shit then leave. Nothing really will make me lose focus except body smell, I am pretty dedicated. Sure I see tons of people who piss me off on how they workout but it won't make me lose focus. I actually like seeing fit girls in the gym. People who talk a lot just goto the gym to **** around. | |
