Points of Ponder in the Gym - Why??

I have been going to the Gym for the past 1 and half month. Fortunately or unfortunately, I have many questions that seems to go unanswered in my mind. There are so many whys, Why is this , Why is that?

a)Why is it that most of the Gym trainer has this "I am so hunky, why don't you look at me look".
b)Some Gym trainers are so helpful in counselling when it comes to petite girls and not so when the girls are plumpier and requires more assistance.
c)Towels offered at the Gym can never wrap around your waist successfully. Tends to suit the people who is already thin and doesn't require a weight loss programme.
d)Do you really have time or need Cable TV or headphone, when much of your time is watching heavenly bodies infront or around you.
e)Why everyone seems to tuck in their tummy and suck in their guts when u are around the drinking station.
f)People tend to do the cowboy (gunslinger walk)- u know the hand by the side walk, when around the weights area.
g)Sometimes the healthier (read slimmer or shapelier) you become, the more clothes u tend to shed. Guys started with T shirt and ends with singlet, girls started with slacks and ends up with teeny-weeny shorts.


Do you guys happen to get this kinda feeling in and around your gym?

a) Because they're trying to sell their PT sessions.
b) Because they're the bad ones. 80% of those trainers are worthless.
c) The smaller ones are cheaper and takes up less room in the commercial cleaner.
d) I don't, but now I stick my iPod earphones and run to LinkinPark. ;)
e) Because you'd be surprised how most of them have love handles and feel the need to hide them.
f) I generally dislike the weight area because of men like these.
g) More skin leaves nothing else to imagination. That said, fitted clothes (read: not skin-tight, just not overly baggy) is better for working out because you can check your posture and techniques effectively.

[Anonymous_1] U have to reserve that only to Freddie Mercury of Queen.
[Anonymous_2] Skin and bone can be a feature
[Pick_Yin]Wow, that is one admirable rationalization list. It would be interesting to be your iPOD tho.
[Alphademon] Bird watching?, i think bird is the last thing that is being watched.

Actually, I've never noticed these things. I've been going to the gym for almost a year now. Maybe cos I'm always rushing in and out of the gym. Always late for the classes. But as far as I noticed, everyone selamba only

[Lin] Ah...you may have not been to the downtown ones. In classes, there os no time to suck in your guts...kekeke
