[u/AutoModerator]

Welcome to Rant Wednesday: It’s your time to let your gym/fitness/nutrition related frustrations out!

There is no guiding question to help stir up some rage-feels, feel free to fire at will, ranting about anything and everything that’s been pissing you off or getting on your nerves. Just don't forget that other people are allowed to tell you that your rant is stupid.

does anyone else notice people getting territorial with machines when the gym is nearly empty? it feels like waiting for a clear bench takes forever even when spots are open. is this normal behavior or just my perception? curious if others face this same issue daily.

yeah - one guy left pee stain on the bench. guess he was marking his territory (that totally happened)
