I love going to the gym. Some days I am more enthusiastic than others, but I still love going and the feeling I get from it. But, there are times when I shake my head at some of the other people there. I know I am not perfect, far from it, but I sure do hope that I don't do some of the things these others do.. Which, leads me to this week's Friday Five: Five things I think at, but do not say to, people at the gym.1. What were you thinking when you got dressed?
Sometimes people have the weirdest clothes on at the gym. Yes, I know its not a fashion show, but you still need to have some decency. In fact, JUST yesterday I saw a girl with itty bitty blue shorts on, that were see-through for all intents and purposes. I could easily tell she had on yellow and white striped undies!!2. Lighten up, enjoy your work out and smile some.
I don't know if it is just the Finns or if people everywhere at the gym don't smile much and seem to take their class way too seriously. When I goof up in a class and go right when we should go left, I laugh and smile. It's funny! Most of the people in the class keep a serious, straight face, what's up with that?3. Come on, we're here to sweat, so sweat already!
There are some people that manage to go through an hour long class of Body Combat and not sweat a drop. I on the other hand have sweat buckets, my face is red from exertion and when we start the cool down/stretching exercises, I am breathing hard. 4. That has got to be painful!
This one goes along with number 1. How do women who have breasts not wear a supportive bra in active, jumping around type classes? I've got a decent bra and I'm still bouncing around sometimes. All I've got to say is: OUCH!5. Why do you have to fart in my air space?!
Especially in a class or on the treadmill. It is an enclosed area, I can't (or would rather not) really leave what I am doing in the middle of my workout. Why do you need to come next to me and stink up the air even more than all the sweat smells that are here! Sweat smells I understand, even if they are gross, I understand! But farting? Come on, if I want to smell that, I'll go to an outhouse.
