- A friend rings/texts you and asks where you are, you say 'I'm at home', but your not, your actually at the gym..
- You sit in school or work, clock watching, just thinking 'ahhh 30 more mins and then I can go the the gym!' when most people are just thinking about getting home and slouching on the sofa watching tv!
- You know the gym staff well, and many people who go to the gym
- You are known by the gym staff and many people who go to the gym
- You spend your free time (that your not at the gym - i.e. lunch hour) planning out new workouts and diet plans
- When you get missed calls or you don't respond to friends texts, they know for sure that you're in the gym
- You're always shuffling social get together's to work around your gym time
- You don't feel guilty for cancelling on your friends plans
- You forget other commitments because of your busy gym schedule
- Your mood depends on if you have worked out that day and if you have, if it was a good workout or not
- You spend more time at the gym than with your girlfriend/wife
Being a 'gym rat' isn't all bad, but it can turn into an addiction that can annoy your friends and family!
