Ever had anything weird happen to you in the gym?

A few years ago I was deadlifting, minding my own business and this karen freaked the fuck out on me, screamed in my face "STOP SLAMMING THE WEIGHTS"! I literally wasn't slamming the weights..... the whole gym was staring, I was kind of shocked and just said "what is your problem lady" and she went on a minute long rant about slamming weight and some other bs I tuned out. Was really strange, never saw her again after that.

Another weird thing happened in college, I was lifting and took my shoes off to do deadlift (in socks obviously), the head of the gym was a butch lesbian, she came up to me and started yelling that shoes were mandatory. I calmly explained that running shoes aren't optimal for deadlift, thought she would understand... After that she went back to her computer stomping and sent out an email to THE ENTIRE SCHOOL that shoes are mandatory in the gym. Was fkn weird.

i can understand the no shoes things, its pretty gross and lets be honest, you arent some pro-lifter. Just wear your shoes bro. Or be a massive homo and buy those gay boots for lifting lol

This one time at Golds I was doing cardio and over doing it apparently. I got off the treadmill and I was a bit disoriented and went to go to the men’s change room but accidentally walked into the women’s change room .
I’m standing there and sloots are like wtf? I had to think quick do I told them I identified as a lesbian
