I think we need to come up with a list of gym/workout/fitness ones, like
SWLT--stupid weight loss technique HOFDL--hanging on for deal life (on any cardio equipment, treadmills, elliptical) NYRers--new years resolutioners WWGRD--oldie but goodie, what would gym rats do
Thong alert? I can't remember the last time I saw a thong at the gym! I'll admit I'm guilty of wearing them in the 80's, complete with headband and shiny lycra leotards. Let's get physical, physical, I wanna get physical...
LOL, okay, I don't know if it's the time of day where I work out (day time when it's mostly SAHM) or that I'm just getting old but I can't remember the last time I ran into PTTPIWS. But, I know it's common AND annoying. Remember Millcreek? She had the funniest stories about PTTPIWS, from now on known as pitpews.
LMAO!!! too funny! At my gym I see all of this going on!LOL! I work out early in the morning which seems to be the special time for the "Older Men" they really seem to like watching me so I try to do what I can in the ladies only section and venture into the co-ed area only if necessary. I really don't get the GWMAG! "wtf" is right? is it a workout club or a dating club? really!? I spent many years working out with BBMDs...they are actually okay. I was even married to one! (my first husband) They are just into themselves and usually like a girl partner to assist them with a few exercises. The guys I trained with always said that training with other BBMD's was just too competitive and then they couldn't focus on their own workouts. The powerlifter guy I trained with was the best!....I would heft these 80 - 100 lb dumbbells for him and a lot of 45 lb plates for the olympic bar too...I got an extreme workout just doing that. He taught me a lot of good things though :)
I like the NYRs.
GYMAG=gym bunnies
BBMD=gym gorillas
I'm guilty of being PWS, though. If someone does something creatively good or stupid, I stare.
ROFL! I can also be guilty of PWS.
TAOS-thong alert on stair stepper
OSS-over stretched spandex
USPIE-ultra sweating person ignoring etiquette (ick-someone who doesn't wipe up his/her sweat)

Let's not forget:
PWHM--people who hog machines, otherwise known as equipment hogs
WWWS--women who won't sweat
