13 Types Of People That Go To The Gym

The gym is one of those places where you can find all types of people. From fitness buffs to New Year's resolution gym goers, there is a gym type for everyone. At times it seems more like a comedy show than a place of fitness. These are the people you meet at the gym.

1. The person who does not belong.

They don't last long.

2. The person who grunts while lifting.

We all know when Steve is lifting.

3. The person who is only at the gym to get a date.

These people need to try speed dating.

4. The person who can't help but showoff.

No one cares about the cool treadmill tricks.

5. The person who lives at the gym.

Gym memberships are cheaper than rent and easier to maintain than a social life.

6. The person who uses the gym for childcare.

Apparently, people think they can drop their kids off at the gym babysitters and then leave (without working out).

7. The person who watches the big game at the gym.

This person needs to get their own TV.

8. The person who dresses up for the gym.

No sane person actually wears make-up to the gym.

9. The person who leaves in less than 15 minutes.

80 percent of that time is spent doing something else.

10. The person who has no idea what they are doing.

Look at the guide. It has pictures.

11. The person who works the front desk.

Probably not at the front desk. Look for someone who knows what they are doing, then you will find them.

12. The person who drops the weights.

Annoying? Yes. Cool? No.

13. The person who thinks their workout is a Rocky montage.

It’s not.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
