I stopped going over the summer, and just got back this week.
I'm here and I'm not leaving. Suck it, gym rats.

Not sure it's so much resolution people as people who ate too much over the holidays looking to get rid of what they put on. I find gyms nauseating, but I know my sister and brother in law both have memberships and generally only go if weather has been bad for a few days, but after the holidays they're in there before or after work a few times a week.

I go to a pretty small gym. The post-Thanksgiving surge was bad enough, so I'm betting this week and the next are worse.
What bothers me isn't so much that there are more people in the gym; that's annoying but I can handle it. It's that the resolutionists or whatever they are have little or no gym etiquette. They come in and trash the place, then they're back to sitting on their couches and eating chocolate eggs within a couple weeks.

I eat my chocolate eggs while on the stairmaster.

Well, people in prison do. This is the first I've heard about it on the outside.

He did in fact.I also know that in prison all you do is eat and lift.

I appreciate your concern for my balls. Rest assured they're April fresh.

Brilliant! One great thing about getting older is stop giving a #### about what others think.

I don't care what others think BUT I don't want to see your johnson rod and ball bearings flapping about so I try to give the same courtesy.

It's not worth it. Already got enough old out of shape guys at the gym shaving and blow drying. Not enough room for a middle-aged "has been" doing the same thing. :XHe still stops in to blow dry his nuts.Sounds like you stopped going for 2 years after this post.I stopped going over the summer, and just got back this week.

I'll be heading over to the gym in about a half hour or so. It shouldn't be too bad today, but it's going to be a zoo when students get back to campus next week.

Yup. There's nothing worse than being forced to walk an extra couple hundred feet on your way to the gym.

I joined in the last week of December, can I still make fun of the people showing up today?

I love the people that use their handicap parking tags to park close to the gym and have no physical ailments. Probably the same folks that take the elevator at the gym and immediately hit the stairmaster/treadmill.

I say yes, but will defer to the gym snob verdict.

Are all the resolution people giving up this year before they even start due to the Mayan end of world prophecy? I went to the gym last night for the first time this year and was pleasantly surprised that it was actually less busy than normal.

Do Mayans blow dry their pouch after doing cardio?

Nah they rub it down with a jaguar paw.

I've been going at lunch to avoid these types but haven't noticed a big change in the crowds either. Maybe they're opting for the Crossfit/Bootcamp stuff? If so,

My gym is a madhouse. I'm firmly in the "don't complain" camp. Last year, that was me. But the chances of me getting an elliptical or treadmill after work are about 0% right now. I'm pretty much doing group exercise (spinning class, cardio kickboxing, whatever) out of necessity.

If you were paying attention, gym club membership declined as a direct result of the stimulus because a weak dollar doesn't go far in the gym. /fenstalk
