Smoking, and the gym

Metal85 · Apr 4, 2011

Today smokey the bear rolls in and jumps on the treadmill right beside me, so I had to get off of it. This guy always smokes a cig on the way into the gym, than non smopkers have to suffer bc of the ash tray stentch.

Do you think they (gyms in general) should try to correct this issue? (like leaving sweat on machines)
and if so how should they approach it?

Most gyms have a rule about general hygiene, I believe. If this guy obviously stinks to the point that it affects others, it shouldn't matter if he smells like smoke or poop, he should be warned about it.

Totally agreed, Im friends with the manager, or well we get along well, and I told him im like im glad I had to cut my cardio short bc this guys reaks of smoke. When the guy hopped up on the treadmill I said out loud to my friend "sweet I get to breath in the ashtray now. mmm good ole tar lung over here, I love it. This is awesome breathing this shit in, I guess I will cut my cardio down before I get cancer from standing here" the guy didnt say anything back..

just pass some ass gas next to this idiot, if you gotta smell him he can smell you, I cleared out an entire grocery isle once from beginning to end

haha nice, unfortunatley my gas only comes around when its not welcome, never at opportune moments like on the treadmill with ashtray man stinking it up

Im going to add this: doing cardio while actively smoking is like eating a triple cheeseburger while your on the eliptical

I smoke, but I would like to think that I'm not like this. I'm sure when I sweat you can smell it, but I never smoke before going to the gym. I have cut down a lot as I'm really wanting to build my cardiovascular system back up, I'm tired of this short winded bullshit. Guess if nothing else, I'll go back to rubbing snuff. More sickening, but also more socially friendly I guess. I know what you mean though, I can't stand to smell it either and like I said I smoke. If someone else is smoking and it gets in my face, I get pissed off, but I guess it's a double standard.

Just take a bottle of Febreze with you, people will start to get the point. Maybe spray some their way, that should definitely be a good indication that they fucking stink

Hey metal, try to see it as at least the guy is trying to get in shape.

but that doesnt mean you have to stand by him.

I know this shit is old as fuck, but whatever happened after you told manager?

Also, why not just tell the guy man to man that he stinks like a cig , as I am pretty sure he might appreciate hearing that. Maybe he doesnt realize its so bad.

I know if anyone ever told me i stank in any manner whatsoever you better belive i would fix that shit immediately
