Isn’t it funny how at the gym many women get anxious about using the machines and prefer to be there when there are not many people……. while many men feel so confident that they use three or four machines at the same time, thus stopping other people from doing their routine!
I challenge myself one day to do a long routine which means taking over at least four machines while I slowly and casually do my exercises.
Perhaps I need Tiffany to help me so we can also stop to chat with each other – loudly – in between times while draping our towels over the equipment so noone else can use it.

Lol, I don’t do the gym thing, neither does my wife, but that behavior isn’t surprising. I think people should be respectful of eachother. So maybe dont’ do what the dudes do, but also don’t be shy about going when it’s crowded and boldly using the machine you are without feeling bad for ‘hogging it’ and when dudes are using 4 machines at once, take their towel off one that isnt’ in use and say, “excuse me” and that’s that! Right? Dudes don’t get to run the show there!
Hi Blue Collar – thanks for that and you are right it is better to be respectful and not resort to ‘if you can’t beat them join them ‘tactics. I can’t imagine me having the nerve anyway. I am getting better at using the machines even when there is a crowd of guys there. And of course although they are loud most of them are ok really. K
Back when I used to go to gyms I never saw anything like that…weird, wonder if it’s changing times or locations.
