Ladies I was SHOCKED this week when a very petite woman with HUGE boobs and lots of junk in the trunk walked into the gym. The shocking part was that she had on a white spaghetti strapped shirt with no bra to strap in her at least DDs. I have no idea how she got in a workout and managed to keep in the half of her boobs that was actually covered up.

The other offense I have seen lately at the gym is ladies with sugary drinks doing cardio.
My favorite one was seeing one of the trainers we have nicknamed "stupid trainer girl" drinking a frapaccino while she was on one of the spinning bikes.
She really has earned the name, we don't just make fun of perfect strangers. If I mention her to anyone else who attends the same gym they know exactly who I am talking about.
My husband once witnessed her instructing a client to throw dumbbells across the gym as far as they could as part of her work out. She also takes up multiple pieces of equipment at one time and refuses to let anyone work in. I really have no idea how she still works there.

I also watched a woman walking on the treadmill while drinking a Dr Pepper. No, not a diet one either. These are so amusing to me because drink like these give you a quick jolt then drop your blood sugar super fast. One of the best things you can do for yourself is properly fuel your body before and after a workout. Carbs and natural sugar (fruit) are a much better prework out fuel. Protein is also most effective for building muscle if eaten right after a workout. I usually stick a ww string cheese in my gym bag so that I can snack on it on my drive home.
Yes!! You are so right!!! It KILLLZZZZ me to see people eat wronge when they think they are doing good...or I think, they think they are?! lol! Cute blog! I'm big into nutrition! My husband went to Iraq and the whole time I mostly kept busy w/ learning about carlories, fat, and actually eating right...makes a difference..the food. If I can do it, anyone can! Good job!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen any crazy stuff yet at my gym but I am sure I will!
ReplyDeleteHow funny.. there is this girl at my gym sho gets on the stair stepper and every time shw picks her leg up her entire butt and thong shows.. it's funny how all the young boys choose the treadmills directly behind her.. haha
ReplyDeleteThe bra-less woman troubles me! No one wants to see that! The problem is that tanks ect. usually have those stupid built in bras and promote such behavior!
ReplyDeleteThe people that crack me up the most are what we call 'poachers'. They follow you around (because you look like you know what you're doing) and do exactly what you just finished. Just ask what we're doing and we'll let you know all about it instead a laughing about it later...
I'm almost glad that I am not the only one with these crazies at my gym. The no bra lady: check, people drinking soda: check. I haven't seen anyone with starbucks yet, but you know it's probably coming!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that people act like that at the gym!!! I mean the huge boob girl with no bra!!! And I would throw up if I was drinking a diet coke while on the treadmill.
