Six week wonders at the gym - annoying people !!

Recommended Posts

So here we go, at the gym we have the 6 week wonders. In other words, they are all over the place in january, and by the 2nd week in February, you wonder where they have gone - six week wonders.

 

Six week wonders are a pain at the gym because.....

 

1) They cannot work out how to use the gym equipment.

 

2) on the machines, struggle to work out where the on/off button is for the running machines.

 

3) smell of BO + leave sweat puddles on the machines. In normal life, they don't smell or leave puddles everywhere, but a bit of excercise and they sweat.

 

4) At the lane swimming, they cannot work out where the slow lane is, and often decide to swim in the fast lane.

 

5) slow the classes down, the instructor has to repeat the same instructions 20 times, and keep an eye on these people in case they die of exhaustion after doing 2 pressups.

 

SO roll on February, and hope many of the six weekers give up and clear off. Do you hate the six week wonders at your gym?

A bit harsh of you they're paying for their membership not you they deserve the same rights as anyone else.

those people are the ones who keep the gyms open.

 

they pay their dues, sign up for a yearly membership then never come. the gym gets the money from 1000 people but only has to equip it for 200.

if they all kept coming the gyms would go bust.

Iv'e no problem with someone trying to get fit , try giving them some encouragement instead of criticism.

True, but the terms and conditions are clearly laid out so it is their own fault

You're dissing the biggest profit contributors to your gym. :huh:

 

Without them your membership fees would be twice as much, or the gym closed down. Besides, do you really want it to be this busy all year?

 

If you really don't want these "six week wonders" to subsidise your membership, then have a word with the management, I just put the 5th "turn over a new leaf, feel fantastic, look like a model, special offer" health club flyer in the bin this morning. :hihi:

And a happy new year to you too. What a cheering message for Sheffield, that newcomers are not welcome at gyms. :|
