    Don't You Love it When

    What is it about people who see that you are doing dips on a double-sided piece of equipment (the other side for pullups) and they decide that it is o.k. to begin doing their set of pullups directly in front of you. Their package is thrust out into your face while you bob up and down doing dips. I had this happen to me yesterday and had to say something to the guy.

    The center base of the equipment is in the middle so unless you have X-ray vision how can you see through to the other side. Me thinks you think of "packages" to much.

    No man - this is a free standing basic steel structure with two sides. There is about six inches separating you and the person across from you. It is an unspoken rule that if someone is using one side you wait until they are done with their set until you take up position on the other side. This is not a circuit type machine that I believe you are envisioning.

    Turn around or ask them to turn around. No need for both of you to face in. I've never seen the equipment which you are describing.
    BTW, you must really love chile to be naming your self Habanero. I too wonder if your in the closet, since your on here complaing about having the chile thrust in your face.

    For the record - I am a flaming heterosexual through and through. No homophobia either - it just looks goddam ridiculous when two people are using this thing at the same time. Even if you turn around it just is not right man.

    Wear a sleep mask whilst performing your excersises then. Or cut eye holes in it. If any one asks you're a super hero in training. Or wear a luchador mask. Then no one will know who you really are.

    That is socially acceptable gym etiquette.

    That would be the testicle equivalent of a third nipple right?
