I work at a gym on the weekends. An unfortunate result of this would be seeing many people wearing attire in public that they probably shouldn't. Don't get me wrong, there's the occasional seven or eight that comes in wearing a nice pair of yoga pants, but for the most part, our clientele is fairly old.
My desk at work is situated directly behind the elliptical machines, specifically the high-stepping elliptical. I try not to look, but it's hard not to notice that there's usually an ass in my line of sight when I look up from whatever I'm doing to distract myself. Often times, there are pants stuck up the crack of said ass.
I see this more than I'd like to admit, and every damn time, the person doesn't seem to notice. An hour of cardio and pants up the ass for the duration.
What the hell? How do they not notice that? I don't know about anyone else, but I tend to notice a wedgie right away when I'm exercising.
Another thing I notice plenty of are avoidable muffin tops. I'm not ragging on people for them in general; I'm not in the best shape myself. I just don't get those who are completely oblivious to them. They'll be sitting there, with a massive love handle hanging bare out of their shirt, and they don't even seem to notice!
Again, isn't that uncomfortable? Don't they feel a draft? The worst is where they've let it go long enough where a bit of their ass crack is showing.
Christ, pull up your pants! Or pull down your shirt! I don't know, just figure it out; think of the children!
Anyway, what are some unflattering or uncomfortable-looking things that you often see that those sporting them seem oblivious to? Generally speaking, not just at the gym.

Same dude!!

At the gym if my top starts to make its way up my back (tends to if you're reaching up - benching also seems to do it), I'll pull it down. I really don't care if I look like shit at the gym - hell I'm sweating like a ballsack in the desert at the end of a good cardio session - dgaf, but having your top ride up just feels.....irritating
-
Holy shit, you're not alone Primo! I hate this shit at the gym with a passion lol
-
I find back fat completely disgusting. Hate it when I see a male or female wearing an extremely tight shirt and you can see the rolls on their back.
-
I once saw an overweight woman with suspicious brown stains around her ass area.
-
Making fun of people at the gym. Classy.
-
We all know you secretly enjoy it.
-
That was way too in-depth.... But, yes, I feel your pain.
-
We all know the real reason why people go to the beach and gyms. To eyeball people.
-
At least you don't have to witness the horrors that lie within the women's locker room.
-
Maybe they like it that way.
-
I don't understand how people miss the massive gaps in their logic.
-
Sort of related . . . if my shirt ever lifts up above the waistline of my shorts/pants, I notice immediately and pull it down. It's mostly because my shirts are all quite short-fitting, only going a couple inches past the waist. But I can't stand having part of the skin on my back exposed.

Primo likes booty cleavage.

Exercise isn't supposed to look good, dude. People don't go to the gym to be judged on their appearances; they go there to maintain a healthy lifestyle. If you can't respect that, you're clearly not cut out for the job.
-
The gym is where people go to workout, not look pretty. That means a good percentage of people are there to get in shape/lose weight. Obviously, you wouldn't be saying anything if everyone working out there was in perfect shape and you spent your days watching a few dimes run 2 miles with "inappropriate clothing" on.
-
Yeah I don't understand how people can be so oblivious as to their appearance. Maybe they don't give a damn, but this doesn't explain e.g. girls who wear yoga pants that are clearly too tight.
-
Having pants ride up the butt would be uncomfortable
-
The fat gets to your head, they don't notice because they are used to the feeling. Like plumbers and their cracks.
-
They're obviously too hardcore to worry about what they look like.
-
need to have more #america
-
Honestly, I've seen more horrors in Walmart than I ever did in a gym. Of course, been a minute since I've been in a gym.
-
They are trying to work out man. Leave them alone. Stop sexualizing everything.

This was just slightly too detailed for my liking, but I understand your pain.
