The new road rage....gym rage

The Fitness Phenom is losing her cool! I don't know if any of you girlies feel this way, but going to the gym is a pain in the ass (or groin, or chest...take your pick) on the best of days. I turned over a new leaf in September to prep up the "bod" for Cuba this coming April. I feel like I have done pretty well however, my patience level is shot......so here's my GYM PET PEEVE list (let me know if you have any to add):

~ Nakedness - now I know we're all girls in the locker room (I think), but I can't help but feel uncomfortable when naked women that you don't know, proceed to converse. I DON"T KNOW WHERE TO LOOK!!!! Or how 'bout when some large ladie's huge neked caboose brushes up against you as she BENDS OVER!!! I feel like there should be a polite etiquette regarding thenakedness such as turning into a corner while pulling your knockers out to prevent taking someone's eye out!!!

~ Lockers - why is it that when it is just you and one other person in the locker room, out of the 300 lockers, the other person picks the one directly beside you?
~ Cardio machines - why is it so hard to get the one that you want??? I always get stuck with the stupid rower or the treadmill with the loose belt....so I keep tripping and everyone laughs at me.

~ Skinny girls - now I know it makes sense that you go to the gym to look better....but I feel like the skinny clan was skinny before they started going there and should just stay home and work on getting fat.

~ Bar Stars - I am the first to admit that on occassion I will match my socks or bandana to my shorts or tank, however, I have issues with the hoochies that wear the belly shirts, put on makeup, DON't WEAR A BRA!!!!, or have perfect ponytails when at the gym. Save it for the Palace bitches.

~ Poor ventilation - Sweaty men have body odor. Why can't there be some sort of system to take that shit away. I am there to work out no exphyxiate(no idea how to spell that) myself!

That's just a few ladies. I feel much better now.

ahhh gym rage, yes I remember it well..
You are not alone my fellow gym goer, my issues with the gym (more so the people in it) have been building since Moses was in diapers.

My newest peeve is the Tuesday night Bantam hockey team that has taken up residence in the aerobic room (aka my Fortress of Solidude) Now its not such a big deal to have these adolescents in my space, with this, I can deal. Its the stench, and I mean STENCH that eminates from the room because the little tikes are WEARING THEIR HOCKEY GEAR, as they work out! Now I know you ALL know what hockey gear smells like. There is no smell like it on earth, so multiply the smell of your dads, or brothers, gear in the basement by about 20-25 and that's how bad it is. Grose and disgusting and actually makes my eyes water.

Ok next...boys who smell (general BO) and STARE. I also have an objection to this. I will admit that I don't smell like Roses at the gym, but I don't smell like moldy ass either...take a fucking shower.

Old men who stare and intentionally bump in to you!

And finally to those fuck nuts that take more then their 20 minutes on their machine, causing me to loose valuable time out of my 20 minutes. FUCK you TOO, you inconsiderate assholes.

AHH thanks for that Duff, I really think I needed to vent on that one, and your common issues make me feel that I am NOT alone, and generally most people at the gym suck!

The Trash Heap has spoken!

i have the PERFECT solution to your problems.....

DON'T GO TO THE GYM BECAUSE THEY ARE SUCKY SUCKY PLACES WHERE YOU ALWAYS RUN INTO PEOPLE YOU HAVE TO TALK TO, IT STINKS, IT'S NEVER NOT BUSY AND EVERYTHING YOU CAN DO THERE, YOU CAN DO IN YOUR OWN HOME OR OUTDOORS WITH SOME MODIFICATION.......AND IT'S FREE.....AND STINK FREE IF YOU FOLLOW PROPER HYGEINE REGIMENTS......

problems....solved...

ALSO R-Bell (AKA smellypants), anyone who is able to fit into a size 4 or 6 bridesmaid dress is not allowed to comment on whether other people (that will never and have never fit into that size dress) should or should not be going to the gym. so there! As I sit here eating a delicious chocolate bar with so many calories, that the company doesn't DARE even put it on the label....
