2 - The "B & C guys" (biceps and chest) who take up all the space...
3 - Chicks who have a rocking body wearing tight clothes. Not so much an annoyance, but it's hard to focus when you got T & A in front of you and all you wanna do is smash it

Luckily I broke down and made my own home gym from various sales off of Craigslist.

Double post....damn TapaTalk...

The only thing that annoys me is not putting weights back in the correct place and/or not putting them back at all. Other than that, I don't really give a shit what people are doing around me.

How about:

#1. Some dumb fat bitch who is on a weight loss program (which will probaly last only 2 weeks) #2. proceeds to smoke a cig before working out, and then brings her stank ass in the gym and #3.... talks on her cell phone half of the time. True story. Blew my fucking mind.............. cigs don't bother me when I'm out of the gym but, damn, working out with that smell should account for justifiable homicide. Do I sound angry? I swear....... gear free.....

So true, than the hot chick bitchs that she cant get a workout in peace. There used to be a gym I trained at that a chick wouldnt step foot in. I miss that place.

Watched a fat woman come in for a trial at the gym. The whole time, she was eating a Hershey bar.

I want to bash those fuckers heads in that workout right in front of the dumbell racks.

Damn, I frequently smoke during my workouts

I was doing bench presses last night and these fuckers were screaming across me, I held my anger in until one of the fucks starts leaning on my bench(where you put the weight back). At point I said dude really? Get the fuck outta here

Or you could politely ask them to move

I'm getting better in the way that I don't let these fucking idiots bother me. I try to ignore them, but when it affects me, I get irritated.
Like haveving to wait for a power rack because someone is curling in it, shit the other day there was a gig doing pull UPS in it. Are you fucking serious?
And the guy the other day just screaming all the time. Shut the fuck up! I just benched 500lbs. And didn't make a noise, I don't think that hammer strength machine is that tough that you need to scream under it.

Agreed with the first 3, also when you are waiting on someone to finish a set and in between each set, they are on there phone for 2-3 minutes in between each set, knowing you are waiting and they still have 4 sets left. Old guys in the locker room who walk around naked. I don't to see that shit. People that leave there stuff at a machine and you look over and they are either talking to someone, or they are at another machine in the gym. I also hate the guy that yells during each set he does. This isn't child birth, shut up and be a man.

Agree with everything you said, accept old men in the locker room. I love me some gray hairy cock&balls

People screaming curling 20lbs or people that do curls in the squat rack really don't bother me. It's the assholes that sit on a piece of equipment or a bench and do nothing but text or talk on thier phones!!!

Over weight, overly flamboyant men who pump their fist and sings out loud while walking on the treadmill at 3. Ffffffuuuuuuuuuu!!

Guys who turn up the volume when I close working out and start talking real loud bragging about them self who think I or anyone wants hear it...such a turn off...

ya i never was a bragger... I hate it when guys just stand around talking about how much the "bench" like benching is the ultimate standings that make you a man. ugh., they will bullshit for literally 35 mins. this is why i workout alone and leave my phone in the locker or car.

I can't stand the gomers that leave equipment all sweated up.

I actually like the chest and bicep only guys. Keeps the other equipment free.

1.people who use way to much weight with no ROM... this morning a kid that weighs 155 was trying to squat 455. he literally bent his knees and never came back up. lol

2.People who just started working, who act all hardcore,,, bring their friends so there is a big group, talk a lot, or who try and speak down to people who are actually working out.

3.there is a big group of bench only powerlifters that are real gay. they try and tell everyone that they're benching wrong. take up a bunch of space,, arch their butts off the bench,, Plus they all use double ply and the strong ones are only getting mid 4's for singles.

Not racking weight

People who don't put their weights away and stink up the place with cologne or purfume really get on my nerves.

People who are texting while I am waiting to use the fucking equipment they are sitting on.

Can't stand people that work out in the nude.
