Default I hate the gym in late June

It's terrible. If I want to work out at a decent hour, I have to deal with all the 10th graders trying to make the football or basketball team next year. They come in packs of four or five. Sometimes it's hard to get to the exercises I need. AND THEY NEVER PUT THE WEIGHTS BACK! And their form...brutal!

I have nothing against the youngsters working out, don't get me wrong. They have every right being there. And I give them kudo's for wanting to improve their bodies. I'm just ranting 'cause it's too crowded and the weights are rarely put back.

Plus, the entire locker room smells like Axe!

I know what you mean, but at least the high school girls are there too. I go early in the morning to avoid the clutter during the summer. Don't be afraid to tell them to rack their weights when they are done, alot of them won't leave them lying around if someone (especially bigger than them) tells them to correct it.

Btw, Axe smells like complete shit. Whatever girl finds that attractive has no taste

How many 15 year old girls have any taste??

But at least Axe is better than Drakkar.

(I wear Polo or CK One--sounds like a trad for the Personal grooming room. Off I go...)

yea if they dont rack their weights just like sleazy said tell one of them and im sure that they will never make the mistake again. but in defense of 16 year olds many of them have never been to a real (out of highschool) gym before and they dont know about gym etiquette, usually in high school theres a teacher there to do all of that like their is at mine

I go to L.A. Fitness and it sucks during Jan.Feb.Mar. months. Why do you think that is?? Think about it. A major influx of people get 3 month gym memberships as stocking stuffers so they are like, "I swear my New Years resolution is to shed my holiday fat." Never works out for those poor souls though. :( But, you do see alot of trim in the swimming pool. We have windows from the power rack to the pool for motivation. Can always squeeze out a few more reps while watching a couple of L.A. ten's wearing nothing more than a band-aid waving to you. :cool:
