the gym I go to is inhabited by clowns in those cllothes, unfortunately a few of them set up a business importing them in the locality so they are treated like some sort of god like creatures. Wrapped R8s and i8s parked badly with various hangers on following them around doing beach weights wearing their wares.

Are you referring to the gymshark owners?! The joys of David Lloyd
Over priced exercise clothes, never understood it!!
Middle aged bell end in the gym doing deadlifts
1. Starts off wearing his running trainers but ends up taking them off.
2. Gets the communal lifting belt thats not that good, dons it
3. Does warm.up sets
4. Now onto sets of 3, not particularly heavy for him as he is doing each rep with ease
5. First 2 reps bust out with ease, 3rd rep does his eddie hall impression and drops the weight from height. now if he had rubber weights i. Wouldnt be to bad but no, head bellend is using metal weights that werent compressed together when safety clipped. So yep, almighty clang on each set
6. Doesnt bother fixing the loose weights, does a couple of more sets like it
My gym has been infected by bellends

Christ we're getting precious about the squat rack. If you're not waiting to use it then really just let whoever's using it for whatever get on with it. Unless I'm due a parrot some are getting a little anal on this issue. Are you the same with OHPs on a squat rack? What about guys doing heavy shrugs?

I'm not too fussed about using the squat rack for other things, but last night some numpty was doing Triceps kickbacks on the rack 
While I'm on a moan; there seem to be loads of berks doing 'selfies' in the changing room lately
Would I look stupid if I took this into the gym? I fancy taking it to play games on my phone while sat on a spinning/pedaling machine, doing steady state cardio daily, as a means of fat loss/calorie deficit.

k them. If using one is what it takes to crank out 1000kcal burns then go for it. I play games while pedalling at home.Thought the aircon was broken or switched off the other day. Took a look at the panel and some fker (of the female variety no doubt 
) had set it to 26degs C!
TOWELS
When you leave the changing room take the fking towel with you and plonk it in the bin provided, you know, the one you have to walk past to get to the exit. I guesstimate a third, maybe less take their towel with them. I really have to bite my tongue when some thoughtless selfish tt changing next to me leaves behind his sodden festering towel.
I'm going to break one day and volley a tirade of abuse at one of them.

Aircon - probably thought extra sweating was a good thing. Or she just wasn't bothering to put any effort in so was cold. Blame the one wearing full make up.ker (of the female variety no doubt ) had set it to 26degs C!TOWELS

Towels - oddly, perhaps, 90% of the people I see leaving gyms take their towel(s) with them and dump them in the towel bin! Consider a better gym.
I may have exaggerated the '%' in my own mind for hyperbole. . .
Next lunchtime I'm going to stand by the changing room exit, with a clipboard for 30 minutes and a choice of cheesy nodding smile / shaking tutting grimace
I actually quite like my gym, although it's going to be transformed from an LA Fitness to a PureGym in the coming months, so I'll probably like it less then, as they'll no doubt get rid of the sauna, steam, & the pool!!

Blokes who strut around the changing room stark bk naked like they are at some fking swingers club/gay orgy.
I know we're all blokes, but I really don't need to see all your bits dangling about while you check out yourself in the mirror.
People who hog certain bits of equipment.The main offenders at my gym are the young lads 18-25, who cluster round the leg press and Smith Machine.I don't mind waiting if your dong a big set, but for fks sake get on with it.Doing one set, then having a ten minute break, during which you check your I Phone, flirt with the milfy personal trainer and talk st to your mates and not moving away is quite frankly taking the piss.
Lazy fks who can't be bothered to wipe down the equipment, despite there being several dispensers for disposable towels and antiseptic wipes in the gym.

I assume the fees will change though?I went from Virgin Active to Puregym a few months ago and love it. Far more basic in terms of facilities but it has all the kit you need and is £19 a month opposed to £50.

Agreed largely, though I must say that having been visiting gyms for donkeys years, it used to be the case that blokes didn't bother to cover up much. In recent times there seems to have been increased modesty.k naked like they are at some fking swingers club/gay orgy.I know we're all blokes, but I really don't need to see all your bits dangling about while you check out yourself in the mirror.
