My primary moan of late is the feckless tt that is I.

Training has been at best sporadic - no-one else to blame except me being a lazy-arsed shirker. FFS. Sort it out!
Probably because it's boring. wink

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?!

Over priced exercise clothes, never understood it!!
Its big money though. I know two people now making a good living off the back of re-selling some weirdly shaped bits of material originally made in Indonesia with a logo steamed on to it (or if you want to spend more money, embroidered). Absolutely nuts.

They have all sorts, sweat pants, t-shirts, those stringy vests and the goofy looking trucker caps. Honestly, some people come to the gym looking like they're in a fashion show!
TBH if it's stuff you can train in then why not. I wear combat trousers and t-shirts - if it's good enough to push to the limit when rock climbing, then it's good enough for the gym.

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.

I went to Total Fitness for a couple of years and was always amazed by how some blokes seemed to spend ages wandering around naked, seriously a few seemed to be naked for half an hour, showering, shaving at the sinks, stood round gabbing, walking around, I am not prudish and am not unfamiliar with letting it all swing free but damn, am sure some just went to parade round starkers, remember being sat down in front of the lockers and a bloke reaches up for something and I come fking eye to eye with his cock, seriously, I have never actually managed to get my mouth as close to my own as this fker had his dick near my face, I could smell its breath biggrin and he goes "oh sorry", another one point five inches (closer or length) and I would have technically been in a civil partnership.

Am sure there was some gay hook up thing going on, went in the Sauna and two blokes were closer than strictly required and moved sharpish, and re-arranged their towels, I pretended I had forgot something and left them too it.

I'm sure there was a thing a while back (over ten years) that Total Fitness had a rep for male/male hook-ups. biggrin

I can't believe someone is actually demonstrating using a cross trainer/elliptical like this. i thought it was a joke.

People who don't use lockers

Time and again I come into the changing rooms to find a third of it out of action because people can't be arsed to use a locker and have just hung their st up on a peg or left it in a bag on a changing bench.

Clearly these people have zero worries about theft. I've half-considered hiding some of their items to teach them a lesson but from glancing at their stuff, I doubt they'd miss it....

Eh? What are you taking issue with? Seemed like common sense to me. Ellipticals are designed, as he pointed out, you can do legs only, or arm-focused with legs.

Always frustrates me when I see someone doing an hour or so steady-state on the same Level!! How dull. He did miss that particular trick by not mentioning the pre-programmed Profiles (including intervals) built in to all these cardio machines.

ETA - Aah, see what you mean, I think you need to brush up on your observational skills smile

how about the filthy beggars that shave in the Sauna. I've rarely ventured in there-too many odd experiences. The nude strutters mentioned above sitting in the sauna with their shlong out, no towel, then proceeds to shave.

It's when they shave their schlong that it's time to leave. More so if they offer to shave yours afterwards.

It was actually Reebok, Canary Wharf. I guess he thought the hot steam would make for a nice close shave. Indeed it would.

January.

fking part timers coming down. The gym car park was rammed tonight with people parking stupidly everywhere (double parking etc - screw that), so I couldn't get parked and missed my session.

Roll on the part timers giving it up!
