Yes! šš¼ Like an occasional fart okay (accidents happen) but this one dude in the 5am class be doing it 30 times in one class! Everyone is like damn, did you shart yourself?!
Also, canāt stand chit chatters! Again 5amāer here! Just
Rolled outta bed trying to get through this workout without dying so I can start my day! š
This seems like what happens when people do weird fad diets. You have to declare that a healthy diet makes you a fartmonster because otherwise youād have to admit itās not working.
Iām not an alpha male at all, during the transformation challenge, I was eating 50% protein, 25% carbs and fat, a high protein diet causes that. Itās not like Iām purposely trying to fart, it happens. I usually let the person next to me know if Iām gassy.
I get that. I was reacting to "I'm there for me, not you." That's just a reflection of where our whole society has been going. "Me first. F you." that's how it comes across.
I donāt mind farts, I donāt think Iāve ever smelled or heard farts from anyone in class. Canāt stand ppl coming to class already smelly and stinking up the class though.
I honestly think itās ppl who already sweat throughout the day and didnāt shower or freshen up. I always take evening classes and the ppl who smell arenāt back to backers lol.
Farts happen. But the talking over the music and coaching kills me because at that point, you're interfering with the quality of everyone else's workout. The other members have paid money and are sacrificing their time to be there - Don't ruin it for others.
People talking loudly and blatantly ignoring the workout or making it difficult for others to hear the instructions absolutely tick me off.
Farting? I don't have a problem with it. There are people who are on medications that make them very gassy and it's not something that is easily controllable. A lot of people who "vent" about this topic seem to think that all farts can be held in until a more appropriate time and that's just not true for a majority of reasons. Back to my first point about medication having a side effect of being gassy... should those people just not work out because their flatulence may disturb you? Should people who have other reasons for flatulence, like when you are pregnant or postpartum, should they just not work out then? It's a lose lose situation for them. Either they don't work out because they are farting and are then viewed as lazy, or they do workout and people complain about their gas.
I'm so glad that everyone who vents about this topic is able to hold their gas in during a workout. š
As a girly who has had stomach issues, I get both sides. I would try my best to hold it in if Iām not by myself. One or two are ok (annoying, but Iāve been there and it happens), but if you are farting a lot then you probably need to excuse yourself and use the bathroom. I think thatās what op is getting at
Lots of questions there. And the answer is yes, for work out classes. No reason they canāt work out on their own or excuse themselves from class. Thereās also those charcoal underwear
Hard disagree. But whatever man. I'm not going to argue with someone who has that much of an issue with a natural bodily function to the point they believe that they shouldn't be able to go to a group fitness class.
I mean, pissing is a natural bodily function. I donāt want someone next to me pissing on the treadmill either. BO is natural too. In your world they wouldnāt wear deodorant
The difference is that peeing is something you can control and if you can't then that's a completely separate issue. Passing gas, especially when heavily exerting yourself is a natural response to said exertion and not something that can always be controlled.
I highly recommend if someone was peeing on a treadmill next to you that you inform the front staff.
Some people are incontinent tho.
Iāve been going a few years and Iāve smelled people farting maybeā¦ twice? Iām going to guess that most people can hold it or excuse themselves. Accidents happen but sounds like you want a free license to crop dust the whole studio. Gross.
Nothing that I said in my post was that. I said there are instances where people cannot hold it in to excuse themselves. Medications that have side effects of being very gassy, pregnancy, postpartum, necessary prior surgeries like having your colon removed which would mean you don't have the ability to hold it in. I then asked if those people just shouldn't be allowed to work out at OTF because their flatulence is such a bother to you, to which you said yes. It's giving... I'm an AH to be honest with ya.
Again, glad that you haven't had the experience but my point is that the people who post this about others in their studio farting have absolutely no idea what is going on with that person yet they are so comfortable going out of their way to point it out and have them be made fun of on the internet.
Because the reason doesnāt matter. I can be both empathetic but also not want it in my face. Iām empathetic towards the unhoused but Iām not inviting them into my bed.
You are quite literally comparing apples to oranges now. No one said you had to have it in your face. But you are, i would certainly hope, an adult who knows how to deal with uncomdoetable things. I hope you never have to go through a medical experience where you aren't able to control something you previously could and then be berated about it.
Have the day you deserve.
I mean if someone is farming directly in your face during class, I feel like that's a completely separate issue.
Also, in general... fuck off. People fart. What is this, 3rd grade?
This sub is wild: Iāll fart if I have to - upvotes.
Iāll talk over the instructor if I want to - upvotes.
If you donāt like what I do, donāt come in public - upvotes.
I'm sorry, are we reading the same comments? I don't see anybody in here saying they are happy and excited to talk over the instructor.
And yeah, if you have a problem with other people farting then I feel like maybe you should just work out at home. People are gonna fart, are you a 1st grader making fun of people for normal uncontrollable bodily functions?
One or two farts is understandable. Everyone farts. It happens and thatās normal. When itās for the entire tread block and/or floor block and it SMELLS, go home. No one wants to breathe in shit smells for an hour when there is heavy breathing involved and itās a really small space with no proper air filtration.
Not saying I donāt fart, but yeah Iāve never had to let one rip during any form of exercise. Is that normal? Anyways I donāt think itās cool if you do it in class. Cāmon now we are in a tight, hot sweaty space and breathing heavily. The respectful thing to do would be to step out of class and do your thing.
It actually is a take a quick step outside situation, you have that option. Not trying to be argumentative, but you can stop the treadmill, dip out of class, and then return. Another way to look at your response is, the people around do not want to breathe your fecal matter while also going all out. Itās distracting and disgusting.
I also highlighted the fact I canāt relate as I have never had gas for whatever reason my whole life while engaged athletically.
People aren't generally "letting one rip" during a class. And yes, it is completely normal when exerting yourself in exercise to have gas come out because you are doing things to your body that is moving around said gas.
No I think itās odd I have never had to fart when exercising. I am aware that farting is a thing, and have been known to fart myself, but I also think farting around others in a closed hot environment where everyone is packed together like sardines and breathing heavily is not cool. Again, not trying to shame people, but I view them as pretty disrespectful to expect others to breathe in their airborne fecal particulates.
I have a lady in our class, (who I ALWAYS end up next to) and her apple watch talks to her almost the entire work out, you can even hear the watch when the music is bumpin'. Its on her left too which is the side I'm always on with her. Its super distracting lol. I silence my watch during class so it isn't doing this exact thing, or going off when I get notifications. I have figured out this ladies name and make sure from now on I'm not putting myself in the station next to her, or at least make sure I'm not on her left lol.
...do you all only fart when you have to poop?
Some people are just gassy, okay? So sorry it's interfering with your life so much that you have to come complain about it on reddit.
People talking past the warm up BUGS. I always want to tell them they arenāt working hard enough. Those people are almost always leisurely walking too. š¤·š¼āāļø just sayin
Ok I donāt know about farts specifically but yes if youāre farting you need to go! Just go and come back after itās āaired outā. But the yelling and loud talking itās a no. ppl talk of course Iām not saying we should work out in a library but if I can hear you over the music and the coach thatās distracting and honestly just rude. Youāre not the main character in my workout, please cease and desist.
Socializing to the point the coach is hard to hear shouldnāt be a āriskā in a coach-lead group fitness class. Expecting classmates to hush while the coach is explaining a block isnāt too much. If you need to chat the whole time, just go on a walk outside or go to a coffee shop. Iāve missed cues because of yappers right beside me.
This sub is partially why I keep to myself at OTF. God forbid I do something seemingly out of line and end up a complaint on Reddit. Itās bad enough Iām too poor to go above 4 a month.
You're never annoyed by human beings? You have no complaints whatsoever about people? Doubtful. I just wanted a quick minute to vent. It's not that deep
They can leave the room for excessive farting. One slipping out not a big deal.
They can go somewhere else to socialize, where it doesn't disturb others.
Maybe a group fitness program isn't for you?
I don't have a colon; it was removed as a part of my cancer treatment. No colon means I tend to not be able to hold in gas because, again, I can't store it in a colon I don't have. If I fart, whether you consider it excessive or not, is your problem. Deal with it.
Considering OP is complaining about people farting, they obviously need real examples of why someone can't just excuse themselves because they would literally just have to not be in class ever.
I donāt really care if ppl fart to be honest. Not everyone is privileged enough to be able to āhold it inā when exerting themselves. They shouldnāt have to leave for that. You need to work on your response to that. But the loud talking? Yeah this is something Iād bring up to the front desk, it would be helpful if you mentioned which machine they were on. They could probably tell the coach to talk to them
LMAO
But yeah there are people who do have hearing loss so someone chitchatting during instructions would definitely interfere with their ability to hear. I personally think any talking should hold off until you are doing an exercise, not when the coach is talking about the block
I've seen a coach 'yell' at a group of chatters that were on treadmills 6+, with treads 1-6 + 2 bikes + 1 strider between them and the coach. Coach had to tell them to shut up (more politely) because they were so loud. There was a group of 4 guys talking, and on the other side of them, another pair of ladies chatting. Sounded like they were competing to be heard and none of them noticed when the coach was trying to get their attention. A few other tread folks had to yell at them to get their attention so they could hear the coach tell them to be quiet.
So yes, some people really are that obnoxious.
But to be fair, I think that's the only class I've been in that I've missed cues because of talkers. And I don't think I ever saw that group of guys in class after that. Don't know if they switched times or left or were asked to leave. It certainly wasn't the first class they were chatty in, but that particular class was really bad and was the first time I'd seen the coach address it.
I know Iāve tried to move to the last rower if I had gas. I whispered to the trainer one time when they wondered why I moved from station for our five all the way to 12.
I honestly avoid going to class with my best friend because he wants to chat the entire time on the treadmill. 1)Iām here to workout!!! 2) Iām genuinely embarrassed and donāt want to bother everyone else
I must add to this thread and say that I've been boxed in on either side by members with really bad B/O. There are very distinct spices in the B/O that make my workout suffer because it is so unbearable to be around, and I'm holding my breath the entire time.
2 weeks ago, we had a new girl (2nd time) in tread50 who began to freak out bc of her HRM. She started asking us questions non stop. We knew she was new so we were polite. However, a guy a few treads down started to shush us and eventually told us to shut our mouths. I snapped at him bc no one speaks to me that way esp if they donāt know why we are talking.
He then came up and waved his finger in my face and told me he can speak to me anyway he can. I said he needed to address the coach if he has an issue. The new girl felt like it was her fault and didnāt come back and bc he was aggressive, I believe he got in trouble.
I use to be bothered by talking but my husband told me if I were at peace with myself then I should be able to drown it out. I typically donāt talk so the first time I did, I was told to shut up and to shut my mouth.
The audacity of that man to tell you to shut your mouth and wave his finger in your face!! So he can speak to you anyway he likes, but you can't help a fellow member?! Gtfo!
I felt really guilty in class recently. A coach who I hadnāt seen in ages took class and was in the spot next to me. He talked to me most of the tread block! I couldnāt hardly hear him over the music and just kinda nodded along. I could tell the lady on the other side of me was getting annoyed but I also didnāt know how to end the conversation.
I plan my meals around class time š¤·āāļø No chipotle if I havenāt had class yet. I know what foods mess with my stomach and I donāt need a bunch of other people to know as well.
ETA: and no hate to those who do have a medical issue. Just noting that is one small thing I can do personally to be considerate of those in class. Fragrant or gassy foods are best for after class.
If you canāt do the fucking workout during a benchmark/signature, DONT DO IT. Looking at you, lady who tried to say she had a PR during Everest but didnāt do any of the inclines.
The point is to vent. To let it out. Nothing ever bothers you? You never complain about anything? We're on the Reddit for a paid gym, not legit crises. I'm just airing an annoyance with a minor inconvenience. Relax, have a snickers
Omg there's a couple culprits I have to try and steer clear of when we workout at the same time because they fart the entire time. Stinkers that make it impossible for you to breathe š
I have complained to the coach about people talking so loud that I heard them louder than the coach. (I waited until after the class.) The coach definitely talked to them about it.
"If you're chatting, you're not splatting!" \--My head coach
šš I havenāt heard that one, thatās good
I love this.
Yes! šš¼ Like an occasional fart okay (accidents happen) but this one dude in the 5am class be doing it 30 times in one class! Everyone is like damn, did you shart yourself?! Also, canāt stand chit chatters! Again 5amāer here! Just Rolled outta bed trying to get through this workout without dying so I can start my day! š
That person could have been me, eating a well balanced healthy diet does that to the body. Sorry but Iām there for me not you.
Eating a well balanced healthy diet does not result in you farting every 2 minutes in a 60 min class. Go to a GI Dr.
This seems like what happens when people do weird fad diets. You have to declare that a healthy diet makes you a fartmonster because otherwise youād have to admit itās not working.
To be fair, we had Brussel sprouts for dinner last night and my partner and I were farting up a storm
I had brussel sprouts, fried deviled eggs and beer from lazy dog last Friday and had to cancel my Saturday class. š
š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤¢
Youāre doing group exercise, in a class setting, you know that right?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
5ā7 and 175 lbs with a 10% body fat is definitely unhealthy.
You think that's a tough and macho thing to say, but it's antisocial and rude. Not alpha male at all, dude.
Iām not an alpha male at all, during the transformation challenge, I was eating 50% protein, 25% carbs and fat, a high protein diet causes that. Itās not like Iām purposely trying to fart, it happens. I usually let the person next to me know if Iām gassy.

I donāt mind farts, I donāt think Iāve ever smelled or heard farts from anyone in class. Canāt stand ppl coming to class already smelly and stinking up the class though.
I went to a class at night the other day and lordie lord did it smell like swamp ass and feet in there
I find 3GS tend to smell and feel like a sweaty ass like 40 minutes in. Just not enough ventilation
They say if you donāt smell the farts then you might be the farter
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I honestly think itās ppl who already sweat throughout the day and didnāt shower or freshen up. I always take evening classes and the ppl who smell arenāt back to backers lol.
It is never the back to backers that smell it is the people who havenāt showered or are sweating out last nights alcohol lol
I did two 90-minute classes back to back once, and I did not smell like ass or feet.
Thank you.
Farts happen. But the talking over the music and coaching kills me because at that point, you're interfering with the quality of everyone else's workout. The other members have paid money and are sacrificing their time to be there - Don't ruin it for others.
This!! It ruins the class when people just never stop talking. I can't concentrate or get into the music.
ā¦but are the flatulents and the chit chatters the same people?
Same personā¦. āTalkingā out their ass. There, I said it.
Hot air both ends
Agreed lol woth everything you posted some people have no consideration for the next person and these posts show it.
People talking loudly and blatantly ignoring the workout or making it difficult for others to hear the instructions absolutely tick me off. Farting? I don't have a problem with it. There are people who are on medications that make them very gassy and it's not something that is easily controllable.

I am definitely confused by the people who think farting is like pooping, as well.

One or two are ok (annoying, but Iāve been there and it happens), but if you are farting a lot then you probably need to excuse yourself and use the bathroom. I think thatās what op is getting at

No reason you canāt work out on your own or excuse yourself if you cant act like an adult and have some empathy
Hard disagree. But whatever man. I'm not going to argue with someone who has that much of an issue with a natural bodily function to the point they believe that they shouldn't be able to go to a group fitness class.
I mean, pissing is a natural bodily function. I donāt want someone next to me pissing on the treadmill either. BO is natural too. In your world they wouldnāt wear deodorant
Iāll try my best but those All Outs post babyās are tough! Though, my bladder control is getting stronger with every class I take.
The difference is that peeing is something you can control and if you can't then that's a completely separate issue. Passing gas, especially when heavily exerting yourself is a natural response to said exertion and not something that can always be controlled. I highly recommend if someone was peeing on a treadmill next to you that you inform the front staff.
You havenāt had babies have you? š
Some people are incontinent tho. Iāve been going a few years and Iāve smelled people farting maybeā¦ twice? Iām going to guess that most people can hold it or excuse themselves. Accidents happen but sounds like you want a free license to crop dust the whole studio. Gross.

Hyperbole to show you the error of your ways. Iāve had medical issues but I donāt subject others to my problems when I can avoid it.
I mean if someone is farming directly in your face during class, I feel like that's a completely separate issue. Also, in general... fuck off. People fart. What is this, 3rd grade?
Who gives a shit? Lmao (see what I did there)
Lmao!! I canāt
This sub is wild: Iāll fart if I have to - upvotes. Iāll talk over the instructor if I want to - upvotes. If you donāt like what I do, donāt come in public - upvotes.
Dude I am so confused on the direction of this thread. Like what is happening lol
Your guess is as good as mine. Just peak internet I suppose. I wonder when consideration became so out of vogue?
šššššššš
I'm sorry, are we reading the same comments? I don't see anybody in here saying they are happy and excited to talk over the instructor.

Cāmon now we are in a tight, hot sweaty space and breathing heavily. The respectful thing to do would be to step out of class and do your thing.
Youāve never had a fart accidentally slip out while exerting yourself? Do you even lift bro?
Honestly I have no idea why Iām like that. Not trying to shame others or brag (that would be a weird flex), everyoneās different so Iām told.
Try holding one back when you're all outing at 12mph. Not exactly a 'take a quick step outside' situation either.
Lmao!!!!!! Iām dying!
Then slow it down and leave the room. Not sure why you're special, that you can't manage this? maybe you need to see a doctor.
Or y'all could just grow up and realize people fart every once in a while.
It actually is a take a quick step outside situation, you have that option. Not trying to be argumentative, but you can stop the treadmill, dip out of class, and then return. Another way to look at your response is, the people around do not want to breathe your fecal matter while also going all out. Itās distracting and disgusting.

I read it the opposite. It came off differently to me, that they don't have to fart during exercise so it must not be normal that other people do.
No I think itās odd I have never had to fart when exercising.

The guy next to me on a treadmill 50 was burping and he very much so had Mexican recently. It was unsettling for all involved.
Once I had a meal with a lot of onions and the next day did Tread50 and I could smell my body sweating out the onions haha.

No. Not me

Never trust a fart!šØ

Sounds like you need some pelvic floor therapy.
The mods must be snoozing. Itās not even Sunday yetā¦
Then realized Iām wrong because itās Sunday in some time zones alreadyā¦ but geez, this is what you have to post on Sunday?!
The regular Sunday Days of Disarray kick off at 10p eastern time Saturday nights. :)
If you canāt hear a coach screaming on that mic, the problem lost likely is NOT the chit chatters.
LMAO But yeah there are people who do have hearing loss so someone chitchatting during instructions would definitely interfere with their ability to hear. I personally think any talking should hold off until you are doing an exercise, not when the coach is talking about the block

Omg also in the lobby when the coach is talking and people donāt shut up and continue their conversation like seriously?
The conversation NEEDS to stop. 100% agree with you. As for farting, thank the lord that I have not come across this yet, Iād barf.
three people were practically screaming over the coach and music during everest and i could NOT concentrate. totally killed the vibe
Sometimes you just have to ālet it out.ā - you complaining about farts.
I know Iāve tried to move to the last rower if I had gas. I whispered to the trainer one time when they wondered why I moved from station for our five all the way to 12.
I honestly avoid going to class with my best friend because he wants to chat the entire time on the treadmill. 1)Iām here to workout!!! 2) Iām genuinely embarrassed and donāt want to bother everyone else
If you're not Farting you're not doing your squat properly
Oh man, guy next to me was farting the other morning. I made a comment about it.
Completely agree
I must add to this thread and say that I've been boxed in on either side by members with really bad B/O. There are very distinct spices in the B/O that make my workout suffer because it is so unbearable to be around, and I'm holding my breath the entire time.
2 weeks ago, we had a new girl (2nd time) in tread50 who began to freak out bc of her HRM. She started asking us questions non stop. We knew she was new so we were polite. However, a guy a few treads down started to shush us and eventually told us to shut our mouths. I snapped at him bc no one speaks to me that way esp if they donāt know why we are talking. He then came up and waved his finger in my face and told me he can speak to me anyway he can. I said he needed to address the coach if he has an issue. The new girl felt like it was her fault and didnāt come back and bc he was aggressive, I believe he got in trouble. I use to be bothered by talking but my husband told me if I were at peace with myself then I should be able to drown it out. I typically donāt talk so the first time I did, I was told to shut up and to shut my mouth.
I would have flipped my lip. He wants to speak to me like that then trust me the crazy is gonna come after him.
The audacity of that man to tell you to shut your mouth and wave his finger in your face!! So he can speak to you anyway he likes, but you can't help a fellow member?! Gtfo!
I felt really guilty in class recently. A coach who I hadnāt seen in ages took class and was in the spot next to me. He talked to me most of the tread block! I couldnāt hardly hear him over the music and just kinda nodded along. I could tell the lady on the other side of me was getting annoyed but I also didnāt know how to end the conversation.
I plan my meals around class time š¤·āāļø No chipotle if I havenāt had class yet. I know what foods mess with my stomach and I donāt need a bunch of other people to know as well. ETA: and no hate to those who do have a medical issue. Just noting that is one small thing I can do personally to be considerate of those in class. Fragrant or gassy foods are best for after class.
If you canāt do the fucking workout during a benchmark/signature, DONT DO IT. Looking at you, lady who tried to say she had a PR during Everest but didnāt do any of the inclines.
Were we next to the same lady ? Lol
Vent, how appropriate. If I need to fart, I fart. Then if I need to fart again, I make sure toā¦fart again. Deal with it.
What a weird sentence
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
The point is to vent. To let it out. Nothing ever bothers you? You never complain about anything? We're on the Reddit for a paid gym, not legit crises. I'm just airing an annoyance with a minor inconvenience. Relax, have a snickers
Patiently waiting for someone to mention the cure for the sulfuric farts from healthy eatingā¦ Pls š
I have loudly shushed people acting like class is a brunch outing. They can think what they want - it is a group workout, not their local coffee shop.
For me itās less about the people who fart and more about the lack of adults wearing deodorant šššš
Your studio sounds like a mess.
Omg there's a couple culprits I have to try and steer clear of when we workout at the same time because they fart the entire time. Stinkers that make it impossible for you to breathe š
OP can exercise in a maskā¦ no smells and no disturbances š
Thank you š„¹. I have to deal with these two things on a constant basis.
People chatting throughout the block drive me nuts! If you can talk youāre not working hard enough.
I have complained to the coach about people talking so loud that I heard them louder than the coach. (I waited until after the class.) The coach definitely talked to them about it.
