Krista made me think of this because of her chatty bikers behind her in an spin class. I don't mean to make fun of anyone but sometimes people make you laugh, so I'll just share.
Chatty people....I had a girl in the front row answer her cell phone 3X during my one of my classes. I was teaching and telling her to get off the phone, to the music... she just didn't get it. After the third ring I said laughingly 'seriously you're not a doctor' AND she was one of my friends!
The fashionista....'do you think I can exercise in these shoes?'
'umm, probably not they are track and field spikes'
'oh but look at them, they are soo nice'
'they are spikes, you can't do lunges with those on and on hardwood'
'well I'm just going to try, I like them so much'
'ok' why do you ask me than :)
walks away ....click, click, click.....
The loud singer....on the treadmill, another one of my friends, singing away with her arms flailing everywhere, I always try not to laugh but its soo funny. And I am glad you are enjoying your workout.
These are not meant to be mean spirited at all, they are just for giggles.
And on a better note, I was at the gym this morning and a lady was trying to workout. The machines were somehow all off except for the one I was on, but they were on when I started. She had already checked the individual plugs, so I asked if they were plugged into the wall. She went over and sure enough they weren't. She got them all up and running. She came back and said 'oh maybe its a sign that I shouldn't be here today' I said 'No, you should be here, you've done the hardest part...getting here, that is the hardest part'
She responded 'oh thank you soo much, you are soo right, it is hard to get here' That made my day.
Whether you're a silly gym goer, a newcomer, or the regulars, I hope you get a workout in today.

I often "feel" like singing when I am on the treadmill, because I love the music I am listening to, but I would die of embarassment if I actually accidently belted out a tune (=
I didn't get a workout in today, but I am loving my new gym membership and am going way more than I thought I would! That counts for something, eh?!
That is wonderful, I'm so happy for you to be able to make it to the gym more often with your busy life.
Haha... My personal favorite are space hogs. Seriously. It INFURIATES me.
There are a ton of the fashionsita types at my gym too. Lulu EVERYTHING!
I also love watching those that can't follow the beat... makes me laugh!
Thanks for the encouragement!! If I ever feel like I can't workout/I don't want to, I'll stop by and read this post. It makes me happy :D
Track and field spikes?! WTH?!
I am definitely the loud singer. And I drum. I'm a sight for sure! :)
