    I don't bring a towel to the gym either, and I'm a sweaty bastard. Just walking by equipment I get it wet.

    OMFG, so am I. I sweet all over the fucking place. I have a towel, and I still manage to make the floor wet when I workout. When I do dead lifts, I pour out puddles.

    I'm not out of shape. The men in my family all sweet like crazy. As a matter of fact, I sweet more when I train cardio a lot. But, you are still right, I need to run just for the cardio benefits.

    i thought no towel guy would mean the closeted gays that walk through the locker room holding their towels on the way to or from the shower...

    as far as grunting, i do it when i'm going heavy...kinda have to sometimes

    I love watching some of the guys carry around extra large beach towels from machine to machine.

    I respect those people because they don't give a shit how they look in the gym and they respect other people. Finding a machine with sweet all over it is disgusting. I sweat like a mofo but I bring a towel and make sure I keep everything clean.

    I see your point, but where I am, these guys are the same ones who spend all their time on the phone. Also, they don't always respect the guys around them, I caught one the other day trying to jump in on a machine I had just stepped away from for 2 seconds! I know this is just a generalization and that not everyone will do this. Personally, I just bring a small towel and use some of the disinfectant the place provides.

    Not only do I wipe the equipment down, I use the disinfectant wipes that my gym supplies. I hate bringing a towel, and there is no reason if there are cleaning stations all over the place.

    I claim my equipment by urinating on it.
    So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
    of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
    about another group that actually does something
    to improve their lives.

    If that doesn't work, then try pissing on the guy who's using your equipment.

    I hate it when my dog slobbers on my equipment, I go to grab my dumbell and there's a clear ooze all over the grip it's totally uncalled for....I also hate it when one of my dogs starts licking the sweat off of my leg while I'm in the middle of reps. It's also annoying when I try to show off for myself or leave the bar in squat position and have to set it up for benching the next day, just because my legs are wobbly after my last set of squats is no reason to leave the bar full of weights and all the way up to the top pins...

    no folds or creases from unkempt wear
    eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
    no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
    but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012
