M5:D68 (D476) Too Social?

February 13, 2009 By Michael Mahony, ISSA CPT Leave a Comment

  

What's on my mind today?

I swear they need a sign at the gym that tells people the equipment is for exercising and not for relaxing.  How much rest time does someone need when they lift?  You would think 10 minutes between sets was too much, wouldn’t you?  Apparently there are people who attend my gym who believe that the equipment is meant for relaxing.  They sit there, refuse to relinquish it and then don’t even use it.

There is a corelation between those who sit around on the equipment and those who make no gains.  They tend to be the same people!  My belief is that they aren’t at the gym to work, they are at the gym to socialize.  You see these people sitting and taking up the equipment and then talking to people who stop by.  They have their own little club within the gym.  These people are the reason I have always worked out early in the morning.  I get to avoid their social interruptions.

I don’t understand why someone would spend good money on a gym membership and then not workout.  If they want to socialize they should go to a party or a bar.
