12 Different Gym Personalities You Encounter Every Day

The guy with Invisible Lat Syndrome (ILS) or the girl who spends her time taking selfies for an hour and then leaves? Pick your fighter.

Everyone goes to the gym and sees these kind of people. Whether they make you mad or not, this list definitely resonates with all gym-goers.

1. The Runner

This one I don't really understand. Why would you miserably put yourself through running 10 miles every day?

Weird flex but ok.

2. The Kid With Invisible Lat Syndrome

The guy with no lats but has his arms out at all times. Sheesh buddy.

3. The Selfie King

I guess you do you. Just stop taking up all the mirror space for when I'm "checking my form."

4. The Social Butterfly

We all have that one friend that will not shut up at the gym. I love you, but please just let me finish this set.

(I think we all know the real problem is that I thrive off of social environments, and I'm probably the one who won't shut up.)

5. The Boys who hit Arms EVERY DAY and still think they're BIG.

There are other muscle groups, I promise.

6. The Girls who hit Legs EVERY DAY.

I know you feel the pressure to be "thick," but here's a trick! Having a bigger back is going to allow for the illusion of a smaller waist, therefore making the contrast between your butt and waist seem even bigger.

Please listen to me ladies.

7. The kid with the Jug

Did you really need all that water for your quick arm session? Nope, no you did not.

8. The Grunter

This one kills me. I don't wear headphones when completing heavier compound lifts, and I always hear the kids with the dumbbells which are too heavy for them start grunting unnecessarily. Ugh, what great sounds.

9. The Beauty Queen

Wearing all that make up to the gym isn't good for your skin. Well, if you're actually going to sweat.

10. The Sponsored Gymshark Athlete

Let's be honest. Any real gym rat knows we all want to be Gymshark Athletes. One day right?

11. People who take the Rack for 3 Hours

Yes! My favorite is when people tell you they have 2 more sets but end up taking 30 minutes. Ever heard of a limited rest?

12. The Mirror King

We're all guilty of looking in the mirror once in awhile. These people are just... obsessive.

I'm sure everyone can relate to at least one of these. That's not a bad thing, just means we're judging a little bit. (It's funny).

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
