USE IT!!! :@

My biggest pet peeve at the gym is when you have to end a great cardio session early because you can’t stand that raunchy smell coming from the dude beside you… and you can’t move to another machine further down or you’ll risk offending them and you shan’t do that at a company gym. What’s yours?

    I always feel soooo self-conscious about smelling at the gym… if I smell something bad, I’ll be like …. “OMG IS THAT ME?!”

    I totally agree with you! This happens to me too often to the point where I don’t give a crap if I’m offending them, I just move away because I’m so smell sensitive :(

    definitely agree with u on that.. been on that situation a couple of times.. what i do though is pretend that i forgot to get some water, head on to the water station and come back to a diff machine far away from the smelly dude.. haha

    my other pet peeve would old ladies who walk around(more like loitering actually) the locker room totally naked..

    Erk! I think that’s my top pet peeve too, but second is people who have a towel but don’t bother wiping their sweat off the machine after they’re done using it. Ick.

    LOL.

    I’ve experienced a few stinkies now and then. I usually hop off and just move to a different machine. What’s just as bad is the lady that comes on that breathes with her mouth open (which is no problem) but has really bad morning breath. Ew. That ricochets off the cardio console and straight in to my face. *barf!

    Ughh agreed. But my biggest gym pet peeve is the people that like to wander the locker room naked. Ok, I get it. We all have to change in there. We all, however, do not need to walk around naked and stand on the scale in front of everyone weighting in at 217lbs without so much as a towel. Oh, and pls don’t bend over in front of my locker without being covered either. K thnx.

    Ugh. I can’t even count the number of times that I was so unlucky as to wind up on the treadmill next to I-hardly-sweat-so-I-don’t-need-to-wear-deodorant guy. Newsflash: YOU DO!!!

    One of my biggest peeve, in the SFU gym, is when someone hogs an equipment and never leaves! It can get busy in there and we have to sign up and take only 30 minute sessions on the cardio machines. Some people just have to reach their goal and they will make you wait and cut into your time.

    I’ve just started going to the gym very recently (yay! and your blog helped inspire me :) ). BO annoys me anywhere – seriously. Like can’t people smell themselves?!! LOL. Like at work, or in the public transit, or in night clubs even. And just like another blogger mentioned, it does annoy me when people do not take the courtesy to wipe their machine down after using it. Gross. Oh, and I saw this one lady lifting weights but she had her handbag hanging on the railing of the only free treadmill way across the room. One person tried to get on that one free treadmill and the lady dropped her weights and ran over to tell her to get off and that she reserved it or some shit. Ugh!! Like, when there’s only a few machines to go around, if you’re not on it, you can’t have it!! LOL.

    I totally agree! Last time I was at the gym and the dude next to me was smelling so bad and starting humming in himself! And I forgot my ipod that day!!! It was a horrorstory from hell!

    LOL at the amount of times you put deodorant … I am in total agreement with you! That, and when people don’t wipe down the machines after they use them – OR, there’s one obnoxious tool who takes up 5 regular machines because he’s doing ‘rotations’ on them … these are the regular machines!!! Wow, I work out at home now and I still have rage about gym problems, I guess!

    And random question but: what deodorant would you recommend? I used a Secret Truth or Pear one and it turned all my clothes pink in the armpit area :grumpy:
