This really makes me mad, everytime I go to the gym on a Monday every idiot in town is at the gym doing something. I go to a family owned gym so its not one of those ridiculous situations like the ymca but it still gets really crowded with a bunch of idiots who don't really do much working out any other time of the week. I hate how they get in there and converse with each other more then they do anything. And the machines that I do use in my routine they always seem to be occupying...doing about 6 sets of 10 or something like that, this stuff has got to stop.

Guilt. And it's Monday...not as much going on around town as you'd find on a Thursday.

First ask yourself what goes on during the weekends. Then you will know. You go out partying drinking eating shitty foods and find yourself guilty for it so you go to the gym to try to burn it off.

To be the best you have to beat the best and I am still undefeated. That pretty much narrows it down.

When I used to go Monday evenings (I go in the morning now) all the guys were on the aerobic bikes and stairmasters looking at Monday night football.

Yeah i wish they'd go home to watch their monday nite football so the serious peeps can get some stuff done. I hate that the ones who only come in once a week come in on monday evenings. And occasionally...on the weekends usually... you have your rich fatties who hire pt's and only stick to it for like a week haha.

When I use to go to the gym (I have my own equipment now), I notice the same thing.
People have in there minds they are going to get back on track first thing Monday!!!
But, it doesn't last!!! If you are going to do it. It doesn't matter what day it is.
JUST DO IT!!! Pamela :->

I LOVE MONDAYS AT THE Y! Because then I get to fuck with all those 18 - 25 year old idiots who went out and worshiped the almight brew!

Say shit like "Hey, I had three twelve packs this weekend and I'm all carbed up and ready to kick some ass."

It really pisses them off!

You should have asked the following question:

Why the hell is everybody training chest and biceps on Mondays???

Testoman - you have hit the nail on the head. Seems EVERYONE works chest & arms on Mondays at our gym, too. Well, not me anymore....I changed so I won't be waiting on the equipment like everyone else. That gives me more time when my chest day rolls around! I don't usually have to wait on the cable crossovers!!!

It's sort of the same principle as right after New Year's. The gym is packed in early January, all these new people join...then where are they come May?
