Please don't contribute to this rudeness at your gym.

All the time, I see men, women, and kids chatting up a storm ancd it's distracting when you are putting up a lift and some idiot is talking about their cat, husband, wife, kids, etc.

I always tell my wife, that if she needs me, page me at the gym. Works perfect.

I have to agree with Shags -- I pretty much tune out everything that is going on around me while in the gym. However, there have been occasions when I have had to wait for equipment that some jag off was using while talking on his/her cell phone. Want to see my head explode -- come to the gym when that happens.

I had a dream that I smashed my cell phone against a wall last night.
there is a woman in my gym that walks on the track talking on her cell phone the entire time. well, by "walking on the track" I mean she "shifts back in forth in the same 5 feet frantically giving directions into the phone"
my theory is that she is an air traffic control person that wants some exercise.

but for the most part, as long as they aren't in my way, I don't care what they do. they are usually either on the track or on some aerobic machine.
every now and then when I'm changing in the locker room I'll hear one go off in the locker either ringing or vibrating away, and I'm just glad it is there instead of out in the room.

my main problem with them is that when peole talk on them, they feel that they need to raise the level of their voice a lot, so I get to hear their whole conversation and how important they are. BFD.
