Top Five Things I Hate About the Gym

Posted by Unknown | Labels: ,

Summertime is a time when I actually find myself with enough hours in the day to do the things I love: reading, playing piano, cooking, and going to the gym. This last one, however, has been ruined as of late by people I would like to call "gym hogs." I was innocently stretching and literally using the tiniest corner of the gym when these bros (they were such bros) came over and started playing basketball on top of me. With an audible "hrmph" I moved my mat to a quieter spot. Minutes later I spot these bros on the other side of the gym throwing weights to the ground with loud grunts. "Typical" I say to myself under my breath. Then, I talk to my friend Derek and he tells me that he was about to use a piece of equipment when one of them came running up and said, "Dude, dude, dude, no you can't use that. We're about to use that." This made me think of a list of things that annoy me about the gym.


1) People who don't wipe their smelly ass-sweat off the equipment. I heard that there was a "nude gym" somewhere in Sweden or something and it made me wanna puke. All those sweaty naked bodies spreading their germs?! Ew.

2) People who throw the weights around. You are proving nothing.

3) People who act like they own the gym. If someone else is waiting to use a piece of equipment. Share between sets. Duh.

4) Excessive grunting.

5) Bros who feel the need to come up to me uninvited and offer me workout advice (like I need it! Pshaw.)

As my friend Jeremy would like to yell at slow pedestrians, "THIS IS A COMMUNITY, PEOPLE! THERE ARE RULES!!"
