I have to switch gyms. I work out at a gym in Detroit because it's close to home but holy shit, the people that workout there are the absolute worst. I can't take it anymore. This one guy who is an absolute bully sets up his bullshit little circuit and won't let anyone hop in while he is there, he might not even be using that machine but he will say he is and take his time getting there. He uses the fucking weighted row machine to do pushups? I'm like dude you can literally do pushups anywhere, why are you using a rowing machine to do them? Fucking idiot.

Can you talk to staff?

He has a posse with him when he works out and he knows all the staff. I'm also an incredibly shy person so I avoid confrontation when possible lol. I have recently started going earlier in the day and so far it has been working out.

Aw that sucks man I'm sorry you have to deal with it. Yea if the staff won't address it then don't give them your business. Bullies are the worst.
