Here are two of my MANY gym-related pet peeves:
1) People that wear jeans in the weight room section of the gym (no surprises there, huh?).
2) Guys* that carry around water in a gallon milk jug.
Today’s picture, thanks to Nikko, captures both.
* I’ve never seen a girl do this. Have you?

/ February 6, 2013I have a confession to make: I was at the gym a couple of days ago and say this guy in jeans AND jean jacket on treadmill. Now, however bold and daring I make myself out to be on this great internet of ours, I am a giant pussy and didn’t snap a picture of him. This was mainly due to my fear that he was armed (in Oklahoma I just assume everyone is armed).

/ February 7, 2013Most of the time when someone is carrying that much water it’s because they are training for some kind of competition. I’ve only personally seen 2 women doing it -and it was within a month of a figure competition.
They want to make sure they are drinking the required gallon (or two) a day that’s in their program. They don’t want to guess what they drink from a water fountain.
This guy is NOT a figure competitor.
Also, if you’re taking BCAAs (can’t imagine this guy is)… they need to be dissolved in a lot of water!
