The other day, as I was walking into the locker room, a couple o' bros were walking out. As they passed, I caught this gem

 

"It probably didn't smell too bad out there today because there aren't that many girls around"

 

Huh?

 

I'm grasping at straws here, but at my gym there are a lot of women that wear a TON of perfume and it smells awful! Especially once they start sweating. So maybe that's what they meant?

I've never understood women who wear so much perfume that you're afraid to light a match in their general area. Do they not understand "subtle"?

I've seen some strange things in the gym, I like to give the characters names like "The 80's Bachelor, Power-Walkin' Princess, and "The Reader."

 

 

The 80's Bachelor: On a treadmill wearing a V-neck sweater, doused in Polo cologne, and listening to a Sony (cassette tape) walk man.

Power-Walkin' Princess: Won't put up with your shit, she'll bark at you just before it's her turn for super-incline jazz-handed POWAH walk on the treadmill.

The Reader: Mid 40's woman who's in great shape, she's constantly running while reading a Kindle on the treadmill. Later she can be found lifting free weights one arm at a time while reading a kindle. We've never made eye contact.

In my experience, this phenomenon is much more prevalent in the male "Axe body spray" demographic. 

Yup, as bad or worse.

whilst I was doing inversions on my mat

 

Two bottle blonds lifting 5lb dumbells whisper (not so quietly)

 

"Oh my god she must have a really strong neck"

 

>< inversions are abdominal based.. but hey sure.. let's say I have a strong neck anyways.

 

The guy next to me tries standing on his head and falls over onto my mat, guess he didn't have a strong neck ...

It's a category of advanced poses in yoga. I was doing a pose called fallen angel. Where I mostly balance my body weight on my hands and a little bit on my cheek while my legs are in the air. The guy next to me was like "pshhhh so easy" ..He tried it and fell.. If you look up the pose it's not as easy as it may seem.
