Re: Pet Peeves of the Gym
ok - I used to be a fitness instructor (and worked out at the gym as well, so I saw it from ALL ends)
So here goes...
1. Yes - the ones with the reseved spot on the floor - give me a break - they'd get all pissy if someone was in their spot. I once went to a class for the 1st time, and someone told me not to stand there because it was 'Jane's' spot!!!![]()
2. The ones who come late - I mean, 15-20 minutes late. And try to take their spot. In front of the class.
3. The ones who leave early. Usually the ones who come in late.
4. The B!tch fest when theres a sub. Get over it. It's an hour out of your life.
5. The ones who complain the class was too easy. Then when you challenge them, the class is too hard.
6. The women who stare and stare and stare and stare and stare at themselves in the mirror.
7. The guys who just come to chat with the other guys. Big a$$ weight belt on, all 'pumped' and ready to go. chatting.
8. The obsessive spinners who wait on line for the room to open so they can grab 'their' bike. (Similar to the reserved spot on the floor)
9. People who take hours in the shower in the morning.
10. When instructors play BAD music
OK - thats it for now...
