...especially you, fat-man-on-the-rower-who's-spasmodically-jerking-the-handle-back-and-forth-while-watching-TV*.

For the sake of my nose and the general health of people who use them year-round and not just in the first week of January, SHOWER once in a while.

Don't just chuck the same clothes in the bag ready for next time and if you think your shoes "might pong a bit", imagine what it's like for the rest of us.

* There's a reason why you're still fat after six months.

Do we use the same gym? That's my strategy, I just hang them on the radiator at work to dry and then re-use....

Probably the unwelcome reception they get from people who think it's *their* gym....they pluck up the courage to make the first step, and instead of support, they get your scorn.

Not so. I admire fat people who actively seek to lose weight. Subjecting me to a chemical attack at the same time is a different matter!

You are genuinely saying that it's socially acceptable to wear the same stinking clothes and shoes in a public place for weeks on end?

It depends whether you regard gyms as public places, or ghetto's for terminally narcissistic sociopaths, with a penchant for expensive grooming products, and a nagging confusion about why they can never establish lasting relationships with girls ๐Ÿ˜†

Can't recall where I saw it but I quite liked it:

To all those complaining about gym newbies crowding gyms in January, did you see us moaning when you came to our pubs in December?
