After reading the "Weirdo gym people" thread I decided to make this one because I wanna know:

Does anyone else notice people at the gym who don't actually work out? I've noticed a few guys at my gym who don't work out at all and just sit in the sauna all day long. Seriously?! It's a GYM, not a damn spa.

Also I've noticed it's all old guys who do this.
 
Ohhhh, let the old guys get their nutsacks wrinkly.

You ever thought that maybe they can't get out of the sauna due to bad knees/back/hips?
 
I don't mind people just using the sauna - doesn't seem any stranger than just using the pool.

Once I was doing one of my lengthier workouts, and a guy came in right near the outset. He went to one piece of equipment and did five pull-ups in rather rapid succession - pretty good. Then he leapt down, and began walking around the gym area...for something over five minutes. Just slowly ambling over to different areas, looking at the weights, observing the people on the treadmills, maybe getting a cup of water. Finally he went back to that piece of equipment...and did five more quick pull-ups. Then leapt down, and starte another eight-minute stroll through the gym. When I left, he had done tweny pull-ups, four sets of five reps each...in about 45 minutes. Which may have been the slowest workout ever. He may have been doing something else - waiting for someone? scoping out a hottie? - but I never figured out what.

I wondered. But if he was, you think he would either strike up a conversation with someone, or at least spend a significant part of that time near, or looking at, someone in particular. And he didn't, really. If anything, he seemed to be looking at me more than anybody...

...woah, wait a minute...

I went to the gym just to shower when the water went out in my apartment for a few days. I'd do a 10 minute workout beforehand so people wouldn't think I was a perv though.
 
I dont really know to use a lot of work equipment, so sometimes I just watch people use to get an idea of it. or sometimes people are using equipment I know and just mess around another station till their done with it. I need a trainer but im broke college student :X
 
fortunately that never happens at my gym because it's not designed for people to hang out and do nada. you HAVE to work out. the whole gym is full of workout equipment and machines and cardio machines. there's a small area to do situps, boxing or whatever and the juice bar to get your protein shake which is also the customer service area. somebody would look really stupid doing absolutely nothing there. you're forced to work out. i know at the school i graduated from gym, there would be students coming in there bullshitting around and the staff would conversate with them encouraging it.
 
Well I used to go to my neighborhood 24 hr fitness every tuesday night. I stopped going when I walked into two men making out in the steam room.

Never again. :(

HAHAHAHAHAHA :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

That is just hilarious!!!
 
^I've done that too, quickly nipped down to the gym for a shower in between work and a date or evening event when I was going to be quite time-strapped and getting home first wouldn't make sense.

At first I also did a quick 5-minute swim or something so I looked like I belonged there, but nowadays I don't care as much what everyone else makes of it. The place is big enough - weights, squash courts, pool, cardio areas - that I could have been in any of them without someone in the locker room thinking "where'd he come from? Didn't see him upstairs..." or whatever.

We do have a large contingent of older guys who just come to sauna at my gym, though. Some clearly cruising, some clearly not.

-d-
 
Yup, girls in spandex on exercise bikes not breaking a sweat and guys who are just there to show off the muscles (though where they bought those, nobody knows). A guy with glamour muscles (biceps, shoulders, chest) benching 60lbs ten times and then spending the next hour walking around and flirting with the girl at the reception desk.

They make me laugh.
 
I don't get why people don't hang out in the sauna all day. It's awesome to rotate between the hot sauna and the pool (to cool down). You are paying for it in your membership fee. Might as well enjoy it to the fullest. :rolleyes:
 
I go to a small gym with no sauna or pool or juice bar. It has more strength than cardio equipment and barely any floor space left.

It is utilitarian and does the job, however you still get the guys that come to bench press and bring their friends with them, take 30 minutes to do 2 sets then walk out.

in 30 minutes I can do my squats, then some chin up sets, rows, curls and misc related pull exercises followed by a slow jog on the treadmill for 10 mins to prevent really bad DOMS (I've found it helps massively after squatting for myself)

Seriously, when you get old, things hurt. Heat makes things not hurt as much. And while you're letting the heat make things not hurt as much, you have company. Company makes old people less lonely.

That in itself is worth the cost of a gym membership.

In the olden days, old guys met at the local barbershop to play checkers with each other and keep each other company. Today, they meet at the sauna.
 
And yet if it was some young, hot, buff stud doing the exact same thing, you'd love it. Age discrimination!
 
My gym is not that fancy. It doesn't have a spa or pool or anything like that. Downstair they have weight equipment and other various machines that work your muscles, while upstairs they have cardio machines, so I don't really see those people.

What I do see, is girls coming to the gym, standing on the treadmill, walking slowly, not breaking a sweat, looking at their phone, texting and having a loud conversation with the girlfriend they're with. They annoy the shit out of me for some stupid reason. I mean, come on, your at the gym - shut up and work out!
 
I thought this thread based on the title was going to be about those of us who work out at home.


Fucking troll thread.
 
>>>Suuuuuuure, they're in there because their joints hurt. THAT's why they stare people up and down in the Sauna and run back and forth between the Sauna and the locker/shower area.

Well, at that point, they're not "just using the sauna". They're actively ogling and following people around. I've run into people who seem to only use the sauna or whirlpools or whatever, but they don't seem to be ogling anybody. Usually they've got their eyes closed. Maybe that's how they put me at ease so they can ogle to their heart's content when I look away...
