Not sure of the name, you probably know what I'm talking about - the one where you have to defend a base or something like that. He does his set, then goes to the iPad and plays away for a few minutes until his next set. It's probably taking the p!ss but to be fair, I'd only ever see him in there early around 5/5.30am when it's fairly quiet. You couldn't be doing that at peak hours or there'd be murder!

People could knit a sweater using organic hemp in their rest and I wouldn't care, nor do I really care how long their rest periods are- we are not the intensity police. Somedays I give myself a relaxing day where I cruise through a workout, I don't think its anyone else's business once it doesn't negatively affect their ability to work out.

I had literally arrived, walked for 5 minutes, got off the threadmil, grabbed a yoga ball did some stretching, did my lunges then got back on the threadmil. i think when i wasnt running he took offence, now there were maybe 6 threadmills and they were all full and yes i was the only one not running but come on like... i just got up and left, felt like total div, wanted to go back and say ya know ive run miles and miles and mile but i have an injury at the moment and am rehabbing it so i need to walk for a bit, and its hard enough being in the gym and not being allowed run. never went back to that gym and never will. people are way to judgy.

White Ninja wrote: » Making noises and dropping weights is very annoying, if they're too heavy for you to lift without the whole gym having to know about it, pick up lighter ones next time. Guys in lycra bottoms is more funny than annoying, they probably go out and get into skinny jeans, the 10mins in the shower in between, is probably the only time of the day blood gets to their feet. Never understood people taking pictures of themselves in the gym, saw three guys with a camcorder the other day, recording each other, presumably for social media. Not really annoying, buy I do find it odd that that people think that other people care what they're doing in the gym. If you're taking pictures of yourself, you're just telling the world how you're half ass'ing your workout. Don't think I've ever been in there sweating balls, with a big red, out of breath face on me thinking "the world needs to see this". People with their hoods up in the gym is a fairly new thing I've noticed, again more funny than annoying. In fairness in the movies, the boxer who trains with his hood up always wins!! Mobile phones in the gym is only annoying if the person using it is sitting on machine, if you've time to be on facebook between sets, you're probably taking too long, so let somebody else use the machine, while you check what your friends are eating for lunch.
