Gym Creep
When you're a member of a gym for long enough you get a good sense of the people that work out at the same time/ day as you. You know who is friendly, who's pissed all the time , and who's just a little off.
It wasn't long before I took notice of an older guy working out. He was about 70 years old, but he has shoulder length blonde hair ( dyed) , and huge rx glasses which made him stand out. Rumor around the gym is that his last gym kicked him out. The first thing I noticed that was off was the fact that every time I looked over at him he was having some interaction with young high school boys. Ive seen him with at least a half dozen young guys. On a few occasion I would look over and he would be psychically touching them sometimes as a spot, and sometimes purposeless ( like putting you hand on someones back while they did a shoulder movement). I also noticed that he doesnt just train and leave, he will hang around the lounge in the locker room for hours. His hygiene is also very bizarre. One time he worse a winter coat to work out and would blow his nose in between sets and then put the tissues back in his jacket. I
Anyway... One day he was on the lat machine and I saw him pick his butt inside the back of his pants. It set me off and I decided to talk to a manager. I explained that I have been in the gym for 17 years and have never seen anything like this. So after my conversation the manager hung around the main floor, and dont you know it a high school kid walks into the gym and hes on the kid like a fly on shit.
Eventually my need to follow my intuition exceeded my need to avoid conflict. I figure at least I said my part, that way if anyone else has similar concerns they will be addressed faster.

jayiskWith the yoga pants that make most girls asses look better than they usually would. i dont have to follow them around since they like the attention they are getting.
i mean i will be on the dead lift platform and some yoga pants chick decides to do stiff leg DL 5 feet in front of me. Back in the day if a chick was using the hyper extension and had on tight pants they would tie a sweat shirt around their waist so you couldn't see their Vag lips talking to you.
No they do exercises that they are either bending over of stretching their vag someway.
i use to do the mirror trick.. where i would look at a mirror on the gym wall opposite the chick so i didnt look like a creep.
now i just sit there and stare. some have even turned around and smiled because they obv. like the attention.
most if they are in good shape wouldnt even notice me looking because they are too busy looking at themselves and taking selfies.
lol there’s a similar guy in my gym around 65-70 and follows every hot girl in yogas around and will work out behind them and watch them do squats etc. I can tell it bothers them I’m surprised No one has complained yet.
Is he following you around watching you do squats? Is the lady your daughter/wife/girlfriend/mother?
If someone has an issue someone will bring it up. If you notice he has duct tape in his bag or is being creepy like that you should say something. And why is someone digging up a 5 year old thread again. But seriously I look out for people all the time. Same shit as terrorism. You see something say something. Don't be a pussy
...Maybe if you wore shades they wouldn't catch on so quickly.
It didn’t help me.....
LOL!
lol, thank you for that.

That should be worth at least 8 karma to snap and post a picture catching him in the act LOL
Yea, you held back pretty well. We would not be so tolerant at my gym. That being said my wife works the front desk and PT's at our gym. There are a couple creeps that push their luck with her, but of course as soon as I pull in they are on their best behavior. One dude I went to school with started really stalking her to the point I had to track him down and confront him, but most are pretty harmless.
so you've been going to the same gym since you were 10? lol
breakingfaceYes. Where I grew up we had a town athletic club. Most of the clientele consisted of families with kids. They had all sorts of group programs for athletics, weights, and swimming.
Im trying to find a way to word it so you can understand.. it was kinda like a ymca down the road from your trailer.
"ymca down the road from your trailer" are you trying to start some shit cause I asked a question?
breakingfaceBro Im breaking balls
I was gona say, wow I was just asking a question....no need to be a douche.
breakingfaceWell if you had said that I would have said "Bro im just breaking balls".
Breaking face ...I wish you broke his face he sounds like a pedofile... there really should be more vigorous vettings checks on people when obtaining a gym memberships these days too many creeps around. There's a freaky old guy who always on treadmill at NY gym he isn't even sweating that much and he take his t shirt completely off wipes his face then puts the shirt on and continues to run. I don't know what goes through these peoples heads at times I mean surely he could just invest in a gym towel
breakingfaceI agree. Statistically speaking if you're in a gym with 300 members you're going to have a variety of criminals of varying degrees.
I do indulge in violent fantasies when Im frustrated with someone. In this case I imagine mauling him to death and then using my foot to make his body fit in a locker.
I always feel bad for the gals working at the gym or even working out. I've worked at a gym before and there were plenty of times I had to make my presence known. You get every weirdo possible.
ha! see my post above.. Absolute truth bro.
