13 Types Of People You Meet In A Gym
By Miguel Garcia
The gym isn’t just a place where you see different kinds of
workout equipment, but different kinds of interesting people as well. Wherever
gym you may go, you’ll get to see the diversity of people and their characteristics.
This list will help you classify them accordingly.

THE CONSTANT COMPLAINANT
It’s that person you hear almost every day complaining to his instructor about how hard a certain workout is. This is the person you look at while saying to yourself, “You don’t come here to whine.”

THE SWEAT FACTORY
The guys are most guilty of this. You’ll see them sweating as if they’re inside a sauna. The good thing for some is they don’t reek of it; well at least you can’t smell them from a distance anyway.

THE CREEP
Ladies, we sympathize with you. And know that we really do when you see this guy staring at you like an owl like he’s recording every move you make.

THE GYM-NOW-SHOWER-LATER PEEPS

THE HEAVY LIFTER
This is the guy most people in the gym give way to. (“OMG! Give way for the big guy or else he’ll carry you/step on you/sit on you/eat you!”)

THE KNOW IT ALL
Nope, they are not instructors. They are just some random people who tell you what to do and how to do it without your asking. Often than not, you’ll hear them bragging about this and that without walking their unsolicited-talk.

THE RICH KIDS
These people are powered by supplements, phone on sports bands, Bluetooth headphones, and run in expensive running shoes with very big brand logos on them. They’re also the ones who don’t really talk to people.

THE HYSTERIC
They scream as if they are about to give birth while lifting. Here are your choices; put your headphones on and walk away, or watch the amazing creature give birth to sweat and muscles.

THE SQUAD
A group of friends who started with five members down to one or so because the rest got lazy. These are mostly students and office workers who just want to try something new but gave up probably because it’s not really their thing.

THE BUSINESS MAN
This person’s phone always rings. You see them on their phone most of the time, like MOST of the time to the point that they forgot that they were working out (oh the irony).

FLEXATRON
Whenever this guy sees a mirror, observe how he flexes. After a set, he flexes and flexes and flexes and flexes ‘til you get nervous that his muscles might burst! – Or not.

These are just some of the diverse species you can find inside a
