The gym is the place you go to to get buff, stay healthy or both. However, it seems like some people have their own reasons for showing up at the gym. If you see your sub here, accept it like that and fix up accordingly. Don’t cry, don’t beg.

1. The ones who came to disturb women

These ones are probably the most annoying; the ones who see women focusing on their workouts but decide that that’s the best time to come and talk to them. Kindly desist from such.

2. The ones that like to hog equipment like it’s their father that bought it

Bros, it’s all of us that paid for gym. Let everybody use. Don’t sleep there.

3. The show-offs

These ones didn’t come to workout. They only came to show off their new workout gear.

4. The I-Too-Knows

They always have advice for you, whether you asked for it or not. Please leave my form alone, nobody asked you.

5. The ones that think gyming is a competition

These ones think you came to gym to see who can carry the heaviest weight. Bros, leave my dumbbell alone. Na me know my size.

6. The ones who like shouting

Any small thing, these ones are shouting because they’re working out. Uncle abeg, lower your tone. It’s not childbirth.

7. The ones that leave sweat on the equipment

Fear God now. Wipe the equipment with a towel before and after you use it.

8. The ones that like staring

These ones will stare at you so much that you have to check whether horns grew on your head. Don’t face your workout, you hear? Be looking.
