Q & A

How do you feel about people who talk on their cell phones while in the gym?

UGH! My biggest pet peeve ever!

I understand if you are a Mom in the gym and are waiting on a call from your kid's school, or a doctor, etc. and you need your phone by you. That's cool. If you get a phone call, walk to the lobby and answer it. Finish your phone call then go back to working out.

Do NOT use it while on cardio pieces. It's dangerous and it annoys the hell out of me! I was working at a gym once that outlawed this practice. We pissed a few people off.

Do NOT use it in the locker room. I don't need to know your entire conversation. And please don't take pics of my naked ass in the locker room either.

We now do not allow cell phones in the group exercise studios. THANK GOD! I was once teaching a Spin Class and a cell phone rang. Now...when I teach class I OWN the room for an hour. And the owner of the phone almost would not admit to it or touch it. He or she was too scared. I eventually said, "Answer it and turn it off."

It is just plain rude!
