Gym Etiquette


Because I am a member of a national gym chain, I can go to several locations, which as you have read, I do from time to time. My "home" gym is the one closest to work though and I tend to go in when I get off at night which is quite a busy time for that gym. Over the course of a few months...there's been a few things that really grind my gears. I know men have urinal rules, and locker room etiquette to avoid moon landings...so I think it's high time we address some of the foolishness going on with women at the gym.

1. You don't have to yell! Whether on the phone or talking to the person in the shower next to you...please use your inside voice. YOU know we can't understand what you are saying and that paired with the volume of your voices is going to send me in shortly.

2. I don't need to see your pink thong. Not now. Not ever. Women don't sag (and neither do most men with sense) so there's no real reason for me to see your pink thong. Either they are too big-leaving them too high on your back- or your shorts/pants are too small and don't come up far enough. Either way can you address that please?

3. Are you seriously working out in full makeup? FYI most of the hotties in this gym ain't playin' on your team. Save the lipgloss, foundation, and eyeliner. It all looks a mess when it starts running down your face once you work up a sweat.

4. There are stalls in the locker room for a reason. PUHLEEZ stop changing girlie products in the middle of the damn room. Seriously, there's a stall in eyesight. Yes we are all women, but no we don't want to share in your once a month tragedy. OMGEEEE i'm so tired of this one woman! And if you are going to work out "comando", on another note, please change in a stall. And don't use any equipment that requires your bottom half to touch the seat...you sweat and that material just ain't thick enough.

5. The gym pool isn't south beach. Leave those damn string bikinis a the house. That lap pool is not a beach...you can't lay out...there are no waves...and the men in the hot tub are old enough to be your father.

Yeah that's about it for my rant for now. Have we learned anything class?
