Why do I always encounter the super smelly fats in the gym? Went to the gym today after skating to get some extra cardio in. My friends and I are on a fitbit challenge to get the most steps every week and since I work at my desk, I do all I can to walk when I'm away.  Anyways. So today I hop over to the gym, fill up my water bottle, and get on a treadmill. And that's when it hit me. The smell of death, mold, and overall poor hygiene. I smelled a fat. Over on the strength equipment, about 10 or so feet away from me, was a fat so large that he should just be eating less and staying out of a gym. Every time he moved, his scent would waft over and hit me square in the fucking face. I was already on my treadmill several minutes into my walk and did not want to move to another one and prayed he would go away. He proceeded to do several machines, and every time he'd move or lift his massive arms, another tornado of smell would flow through the gym. It was terrible and they should have kicked him out.  I ended up extending my cardio time just so that the smell in that area could dissipate, and then I proceeded to wipe every machine I used before using it to get rid of any lingering germs, because I did not witness him once clean any machine he used.
