Gym Etiquette, Am I in the wrong ?
I’ll try to make this short but this pissed me off. I get to the gym at around 830pm. I get on the treadmill and start to walk. I notice there is a guy sitting at the squat rack talking to a girl, ok no problem. I get off the treadmill 15 mins later he’s still sitting at the squat rack bench conversing. So I move on to another exercise(10 mins) I notice he is still talking, so I go up and ask are you guys still using this(politely) (thinking maybe he already used the equipment before I arrived and was just chilling talking afterwards and got distracted) He goes ya with a puzzled look on his face, as I walk away I can see in the mirror he made a rude rolling eyes expression on his face as if he was totally confused that I was asking him that question. By this point it’s about 910 and he starts doing his sets. I had to completely rearrange my work out which I was already annoyed because I know I’m not going to have the energy for heavy compound movements which I usually do at the beginning. Anyways it’s about 10:05(1 and a half hours later) he’s still at the squat rack so I just give up and walk back over to the treadmill to cool down. AS SOON as I get on the treadmill he is somehow finished at the rack. I can’t help to think that he did this intentionally and was trying to prove a point, and a part of me thinks he had animosity because I interrupted his conversation with the girl, because as soon as I asked if he was done she walked away. Maybe it’s all in my head. Who knows. How would you have handled this situation?
