I workout at the University's gym and half of the place is a social club.

Nothing pisses me off more than a group of guys standing right behind you, just laughin it up and talking about how they flunked a course. It's ok to talk at the gym, socialize and what not, but I think half the people there don't even lift a single weight or break a sweat.

Next peeve is people that come to the gym dressed in their best clothing. Guys decked out in golf shirts and perfectly clean Nike shoes with gold chains and shit, and girls wearing strapless shirts and more make-up than a racoon. And here I am with a shirt that smells ok and isn't too badly worn, my shoes are another issue, and my gym shorts get a good shot of febreeze every once in a while (no point in wearing them once and washing them right?). It annoys me because its rediculous, you're there to sweat your balls off and get in a good workout, not become a model for Tommy Hilfiger.

Last peeve for now...lol... are the showoffs, these are the guys that do bench press with their back more than their chest and always think they can lift the most. I saw one guy 'benching' 300lbs and i thought he was trying to do a backwards somersault. It especially gets me going when the cable machines are packed and you try and work in with them and they always put the pin at the weight they think you should be lifting and then try and max out the machine when its their turn.

I try and channel my rage and anger for these people into intense lifting, and as you can see I have no problem getting my anger fuelled
