This is the same a$$hat who jumps in on your equipment when you are between sets grabbing a splash of water! I HATE that ****!

This is one of the many reasons I train at home now. I love being able to play the music I want to listen to (or no music at all if the mood strikes me), it's open 24/7 even on holidays and I never have to wait for equipment or any other bullsh!t that comes with going to the gym. And in the long run, it's cheaper than paying a monthly fee for the rest of my life. Oh yeah, and the only germs on the equipment, bars etc are my own.
-cologne theres no call for..that hinters a workout and your ability to breath.
-people that sneak in when you get a drink of water...just shout at them from the fountain( I still have 1 more set man)..theyll never intrude on your machine again because they get embarrassed.
-grunting is a breathing technique or flaw depending on how you look at it...put your ear phones on and listen to your Ipod and get over it. and yes Im a guy at the gym that does it some times..Im glad theres people out there that get b*tchy over the fact some people do it involuntarily.even the best weight lifters or bodybuilders have done it or do it.
- Guys right in front of the dumbell rack... you just walk right up next to them and grab for what you need....they WILL move because they know their dumbass is in the way.
-bad technique...either offer your 2 cents or laugh at them for the future injuries they shall have.
Not a gym person anymore, home routine now, but guys that would talk while at a station, more talkin than workin. I would just go work something else then come back.
...asshats chatting on their cell phone loud enough where I can hear you over my iPod. Typically, chicks on the cardio equipment but I have seen dudes trying to do leg lifts while yapping away.

How about the loser trying to talk to every girl in the place......there are a couple of them at my place that will be there for 2+ hours and get maybe 5 minutes of "working out" in.....STOP trying so F'ing hard. lol

The guy that stands there two feet away from the machine you're on waiting for you to finish, and looks annoyed every time you take a break between sets, and is basically watching you work out.
And anyone that I don't know that asks if they can work in between sets. This enrages me.
Also, anyone who asks for a spot. If you need to put up that much weight, go get a gym buddy and don't bother a complete stranger.

The first one is annoying, but I ALWAYS do both of the second.
It's a courtesy to ask if you can work in on a machine rather than stalk it until you disappear for 10 seconds.
I ask the stronger guys for a spot when I need it. I'm not going to go tap some random twig on the shoulder and ask him to cover me on a 400+ press.
Thats about the only way I meet people in the gym. I always offer the service back (I'm an awesome spot) and they usually take me up on it if I see them again.)
You sound like one of the "tunnel-vision weirdos" with the headphones who refuses to acknowledge anyone but himself in the mirror. Doesn't say "Hi" to people he sees everday or respond when I ask if you are still using a machine. You just walk away. Are you that guy?
I don't like being perstered for conversation in the gym, but I don't act like a self-righteuos dick when someone asks for advice or a spot. I don't talk to people until they talk to me.
