9 Peculiar People You Find When You Hit The Gym

A gym offers more than just space where you can come to work on your body. Only because of the kind of people we get to see at the gym, it becomes even more interesting place--to observe others and getting either inspired or entertained.

You will find these 7 kinds of people in every fitness center, no matter in which part of India you are.

1. The Hero

So, there will be this guy in gunjees, who would enter the gym, check his looks, hairstyle or biceps in the mirror just next to where a girl is exercising. Then, without a warm up, he would straightaway head to the other section to lift heavy weights.

2. The One Who Is In Labor

Not really, but the kind of sounds this guy makes while lifting weight seems as if he is being told to push a baby out of his..ahem.period. We know it takes effort and willpower to lift those 17-kilogram dumbbells, but these people utter a cry as if getting stabbed from the back.
Thump! The weight is thrown on the ground after a cry signifying the completion of set. These guys surely contribute to the noise pollution inside a gym.

3. The Girl Who Comes To Watch TV

She is cycling or on a cross-trainer but her eyes are fixated on the TV screen on the wall. Bollywood numbers, scarcely clad women lifting weights and muscular men with embellished 6 packs-abs keep her eyes glued to the screen. Her workout is taken care of by her body, which on an autopilot mode while pedaling.

4. The Stalker

He checks out the girls, keeping one eye on the lady trainer and the other on his own biceps. Seriously, he isn't there to workout. His Tinder account is inaccessible so he is hitting the gym these days.

5. The Lipstick Chick

This girls ramp-walks on the treadmill, chews a bubble gum and comes with a dark shade of lipstick spread across her pouted lips. She even has a 24 hour, anti-sweat kajal, eyeliner or mascara that her sweat fails to smudge whatsoever.

6. The Talkative Aunty

This aunty comes on and off to the gym with an intention to shed some kilograms of discomfort or because her neighbor also goes gyms. She catches hold of people and starts a conversation with anyone who has taken a break in between the sets. She will probably talk about herself and in between do your background check.

7. The Dedicated Body Builder


He is coming to the gym with a purpose--either to enhance his muscle power like everyone around or to lose weight. He wears the same gym clothes almost daily, doesn't give a shit about what is happening and continues to train himself silently.

8. The One Who Gets On Weighing Machine After Every Exercise


Honestly, this is more common in girls as compared to the other guys--though even they indulge in it regularly. After every exercise, they head to the weighing machine to check whether today's diet and the last set of crunches shifted the needle to the left.

9. The Trainer

How can we forget the kind of trainers in the gym? Those who practice lifting the weight themselves before allowing you the opportunity to get trained. These self-obsessed trainers then coax others, "Chal ab tu kar."

Do you have any other characters in mind? Did you find any of these in your gym? Comment and share your funny experiences at the gym.

The Mirage Of A Mirror


Mirrors have been such an intriguing creation by humankind.


  • It empowers you when you lift up your clothes to feed yourself the beauty of your own body. It discourages you when you closely look at the acne that has cropped up unexpectedly on your face.

  • It makes you smirk when you watch your taut nerves peeking out of your muscular built. It catches you as you notice the first few strands of gray hair in the sideburns.



Mirrors deceive us into thinking we are the most beautiful, the most handsome, the curviest, most muscular, most decent, charismatic, cherubic, capable of being different. . . . . and unique.


Mirrors even make us feel vulnerable

We look at ourselves searching for our own objectionable features, unpleasant flab of fat and cellulite, undesirable marks on our body, the off-putting complexion of our skin, thin and slender frames, signs of aging—graying hair and wrinkles and bags under the eyes.


At a moment that reflects back a version of who we are—good, bad, ugly—all of us is captured by such a preposterous piece of brittle object.


                                                    The Mirror


A powerful and highly underrated masterpiece subjected to mere glances and quick thoughts.


  • The mirror is where an orator hides his fears. 
  • It is where a dancer shuns her bad posture. 
  • A baby derives joy watching themselves smile.
  • A model engulfs fear and emanates confidence watching her own stunning image.



An animal apes itself in a mirror, discovers the secret and moves on, but we humans remain transfixed by watching our own self in various avatars. 


We come back, again and again, every morning, every visit to the bathroom, to the dressing table, to the salon—we come back to test ourselves for perfection and offer ourselves a piece of self admiration, at times, criticism.


We are as fragile as the object that creates a reflection of our selves


We aren’t really what we see in the mirror—we are much more at different times, doing different things. Beauty portrays in a good deed—giving, offering, taking, receiving, sacrificing—when we are unaware of our image.


By simply hanging on the wall, in a frame—mirrors take away the control from ourselves, giving us either frustration or satisfaction. Such is the power of this tool. 


Is it really true that an inanimate object cause so much more than a stir?



Wake up and look at yourself. Penetrate into your own eyes and shush your caustic mind. 


Don't blame the mirror.
