At The Gym




After going to my neighbourhood gym for a month and running on the same treadmill ( which refuses to start with the "START" button but gets moving when I change the incline ) I've compiled a list of some of the people i've come across at the gym


1) Miss LV
She seems to be at the gym to be seen and not to work out. I always end up wearing aything which comes my way - I did notice she is on coordinated outfits every day. From her pony tail ribbon to her branded shoes to her sweat band all look in perfect sync every day. She seems to be a perfect ' merchandiser' at an LV boutique

A little warning to those entire freshers - following them can create a hole in your pocket

2) Control Freak
Apologies to the lady who seems to be controlling her spouses simple yam - these are the people who tend to amplify their workout sessions. They make a perfect ' PR spin doctors' at work. Thanks to her the instructor shows up on time every time
A little warning to those entire freshers - follow them at your own risk

3) Dreamers
I fall into this category. These are the people working towards a fitness goal and tend to limit their stretches to minimalistic levels. They perfer the tried and tested route and go for a fixed regime every day even though normal is boring. They make a perfect ' Teller' in a bank whose only job is to see those millions moving within his hands every day
A little warning to those freshers - following them may lead to monotony

4) Bollywood Connection
These people are the gym to work - they give complex to our own six pack bollywood stars - wonder how their body is contored in all sorts of expressions. They make perfect ' Models' for branded toned bodies
A little warning to those freshers - stay away from them as they tend to make you feel miserable
5) Sunset Boulevard
She seems to spend more time on her make up than at the treadmill. She moves around the gym with hand towels and you can see a trail of them within minutes of her being at the gym. May be she is a perfect ambassador for waterproof layers of MAC
A little warning to those entire freshers - STAY AWAY

  1. Gud one Vemuri, Dubai ho ya Hyderabad, we find these same categories across the globe. Adding the above,there is one category, who will make it a routine to come to gym everyday without missing it. They neither lift a single weight, nor step onto the tread mill ever. They are there to network with people, continue their end less chat, disturbing the other who is busy on the work station. They are called 'Linkedin's. Lol :)
