'He was nothing but polite to you': Gym goer gets told off by woman using a machine he's patiently waiting for, she turns to staff members who support him

Gym etiquette. Ever heard of it? This woman clearly hasn't. One person shared a 'Gym Karen' story to Reddit after it unfolded positively, in his favor. He explained how he was down to his last exercise, and was waiting patiently next to a machine that was occupied by a woman who was notorious for being entitled. He had his earphones in, and wasn't directly facing her. She still got annoyed, and confronted him, asking him what he was doing. He replied that he was waiting for the machine, to whic…

Gymgoer makes enemies by cutting the line and hogging equipment, cue petty payback: ‘My blood is boiling just from the principle of it’

There is nothing quite like an obnoxious person at the gym. On some days, they're just interrupting your workout and it's minor enough for you to shrug it off. However, sometimes the behavior is so egregious that it entirely ruins your day. It could be the way that they're hogging the equipment. It could be

Kindhearted gym-goer considers telling a girl that her workout leggings are transparent, narrowly escapes his own public humiliation: 'It's a trap!'

If your best friend has their fly down, a stain on their shirt, or food in their teeth, it's common courtesy to tell them, right? Coming from a friend, flagging a wardrobe malfunction isn't uncouth, but at the gym, it's a different story.

'If you don't do this, you'll fail my class': Asthmatic student gets PE teacher fired after maliciously complying with bogus school policy

'If you don't do this, you'll fail my class': Asthmatic student gets PE teacher fired after maliciously complying with bogus school policy

Many gym teachers are likely accustomed to hearing silly excuses to get out of physical activities, but when it comes to valid medical reasons, those teachers better listen. Otherwise, they are putting the student at risk health-wise, and they are putting their jobs on the line as well. Let this post be a cathartic space for you to reflect and let out any lingering frustration with regard to how you feel about that PE teacher. For me, it's the one who made us do 10 push-ups every time we couldn…

'Nobody is staring at you and nobody cares': 20+ tips from gym rats for people who want to work out more in the New Year

If you're like me, “exercise more” makes an annual appearance on my mental list of New Year's resolutions. And like so many New Year's resolutions, there is some meaningful change for a few weeks until I decide to go back to old habits. When it comes to working out, everyone always says it's about finding the right method of exercise for you, but for many, the right method of exercise looks more like sitting on the couch binging my favorite comfort TV show. At least there is some movement as I…

'Her jaw actually dropped': Serviceman gets one over on gym that was refusing to cancel his membership

Gyms aggressively seek to enlist as many members as possible, seemingly with the hope that none of them will actually use the facilities provided. Instead, keeping members paying monthly to keep the gym's barcoded tag on their key ring like some expensive subscription-based accessory. They just as aggressively prevent you from ever canceling your membership, ensuring that the entire engagement unravels with the same clarity and certainty as riddling with a sphinx. It's not unheard of for gyms t…

'She got angry': Dude gives woman unsolicited gym advice, wonders if he's wrong

There's an important rule when it comes to giving unsolicited advice or feedback to anyone at the gym… Don't. Just don't. This same rule applies when you might be considering making unsolicited comments about another person's appearance—just… don't. However, this post begs an interesting question. When it comes to matters of safety, not just that someone's form is slightly off, but actual immediate safety… Do you have the right to say something..? And, should you say something? When it comes to…

'This is what happens when you text and run...': 30+ Gym-going goofballs who are working out the wrong way

There are rules at the gym , but you wouldn't know it by the way these people tried to work out. Let me tell you a story. The year was 2011, and a brand new Planet Fitness opened up in my area. It was so cheap back then that even as high schoolers, my friends and I could pay monthly to go work out . Gym class? Nah, we couldn't be bothered. We felt like we were adults, and we wanted to work out like them. It didn't matter that we didn't know how to use any of the machines; we'll figure it out as…

'Faces dropped... She starts back pedaling': Teachers hold student back from graduation, student complies by leaving school early

There are a surprising amount of people who fail gym class . I know what you're thinking — how can someone possibly fail gym class? I completely understand how. If you don't want to get sweaty and smell gross all day long, you can't run, and therefore, you might fail. It's a sacrifice many are willing to make, to the fury of our gym teachers. It's just not possible to run several miles and not get sweaty, and I recall classmates of mine who did run their laps. They were basically sweaty all day…

'AITA For Yelling at Someone to Shut Up?': Woman shuts down obnoxious gym-goer and asks the internet for advice

This gym-goer had simply had enough of another person being loud and disruptive in their gym's athletic classes. They were pushed to limits that they claim they normally wouldn't go to and told the disruptive person to shut up. Now they're wondering if they're wrong for their outburst. It's generally pretty shocking when someone displays a complete lack of self-awareness and care for the people around them; playing loud music on public transportation (or in any public space) and generally being…
