Today, I decided to motivate myself to workout by looking at a picture of a guy with a six-pack on my computer screen while doing abs. My dad walked in after I finished and was still breathing heavily from working out. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to the gym after months of procrastinating. I walked straight into the glass wall next to the entrance instead of the door. A guy lifting near the front desk winced in sympathy. I still worked out, but I could see my face slowly swelling in the mirror. FML
Today, I was at the gym on the elliptical. Feeling proud of myself for finishing a very intense workout, I looked to my left to see that the maintenance guy fixing the machine next to me had burned more calories testing the machine than I did during my entire workout. FML
Today, I told my dad I was gonna to start working out again. He looked at me with honest confusion on his face and said, "You worked out before?" My mother started laughing. She was all the way upstairs. FML
Today, I told my dad I was going to the gym. He stood up and clapped. FML
Today, at the gym, I caught sight of myself in the mirror while lifting weights and thought, “Damn, I look good!” I smiled. Then I realized the mirror was actually a window. A group of people outside had been watching me flex with a shit-eating grin on my face for God know how long. FML
Today, I was at the gym running with intensity on the treadmill. As I was working out, I noticed a few guys behind me staring at me. I figured they were checking me out because I was losing some weight and looking better. Turns out they were betting on how much longer "Fat Ass" could last. FML
Today, I finally felt motivated to do some exercise. As I got my weights out, I noticed out of the corner of my eye someone moving about outside my window. I got scared and dropped a weight on my foot. The person outside was my own reflection. FML
Today, I was working out at the gym. A very attractive girl was watching me work out, so feeling like a stud, I tried to lift a really heavy weight. I failed, got trapped, and watched helplessly as she walked away laughing. FML
Today, while working out at the gym, I paused to check out a beautiful woman. The guy behind me said "Are you going to do your set or are you going to keep staring at my wife?" FML
Today, I decided to start my exercise video routine. It's an African dance workout DVD. Just as I felt confident and motivated about getting in shape, I realized that my window was wide open and my neighbors were getting a front row seat to me waving my arms in the air like an idiot. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Next time try and motivate yourself while looking at a female bodybuilder, still awkward but at least she doesn't have a penis

To me, this seems like the perfect opportunity to play mind games with your dad.

So true. This is the best option in all these situations of people thinking you were having a private moment.

It's not gay if you just don't make eye contact ;)

As long as the balls don't touch, right?

I bet he's waiting for you to come out. So just explain before he goes around telling family members.

I usually pick a movie or T.V. show with someone in it that looks like what I'd like to achieve. Makes things less awkward if someone walks in. Next time, try watching 'Thor' and working out.

Next time try putting some earplugs in and listen to music, at least that way no one will be suspicious or judge you.

Awkward.

But if you had pants on and your fly was zipped up...it may look a little less fishy.

Advice: be yourself. If your dad asks you about it, just tell him the truth, and if he doesn't believe you, that's his problem.
