Today, I went onto the treadmill at my gym. When it prompted me to enter my age I put 27. I'm 29 and am lying about my age to a workout machine. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I lied to the treadmill about my weight. FML
Today, I went to the gym for the first time in months. As I was on the treadmill, I accidentally hit the emergency stop button. In my attempt to play it cool, I tried to pretend it was intentional and yelled, "I've reached my fitness goal for the day!" FML
Today, I went to the gym for the first time in months and tried to act like I belonged there. I used the wrong machine, adjusted something I shouldn’t have, and had to ask a teenager how to reset it. FML
Today, I was trying to work out, and couldn't even complete an exercise regime meant for 50-year-olds. I'm 24. FML
Today, I was at the gym when a trainer said, “Wow, good for you! I love seeing older people stay active.” I’m 29. FML
Today, I started a new job. As I was introducing myself during the morning get together with the team, I forgot how old I was, and panicked. I ended up saying I was "twenty-fine." I’m 27. FML
Today, I was doing my usual routine at the gym which consists of working out on the treadmills right in front of my ex boyfriend to make him feel bad. Whilst doing this, I tried to be cool and do that thing where as the treadmill slows down you turn around and just walk off the end. I fell. FML
Today, I picked the treadmill next to an old man so I could feel better about myself. He ran faster and longer than I did. FML
Today, I went to the gym for the first time in quite a while. I was feeling pretty good about myself until I realized I'd been on the elliptical machine for twenty minutes without having actually turned it on. I was just moving the pedals and wondering why I wasn’t getting tired. FML
Today, I was working out in the gym when a fitness trainer came up to me and said it wasn't safe to be exercising while this far along in a pregnancy. I was too ashamed to tell them that I'm not pregnant, so I went along with it. Time to find a new gym. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

It asks you your age so it knows what your normal workout level needs to be. Also, you're a completely pathetic person. Seriously? 29 is not old. Get some perspective on life.

I'm sorry but these FMLs crying for other people's pity shouldn't even get posted. "Today I ate a bunch of twinkies, then I weighted myself and realized I weight 200lbs, FML!!!!" You ******* deserve it if you chose to lie to a machine.

First of all no we aren't all old just because we're passed 18. Secondly what do pedophiles have to do with anything?

Your taking FML too seriously. This is a site to read for fun. Your pathetic, who are you to judge anyone? The post still made me chuckle so I don't see what's wrong with them posting anything. I don't like that some people pitty themselves either but I don't go around bitching at stupid little things. You must have no life or your on your angry with yourself wanting to take some self issues on someone else. And that's the worst.

I'm pretty sure the age is there to help determine how healthy, how much body fat, regular weight or whatever is normal andstuff for your age so you're really just screwing yourself for getting results that are probably going to be worse for 2 years younger which would probably slightly differ from your age. you might be healthy for 29 but not 27, nahmean?!

What are you doing at the gym? Women belong in the kitchen to bake shit for men and should automanically be in shape.

Men don't lie about their age. We just forget, and we're too lazy to do the math when asked, so we guess.

Don't people usually lie about their weight when it comes to sports?

You realize that it's going to calculate a higher heart rate for you to reach. Of course, I'm sure your lie about your weight will screw up the calculations even more.

My question is why do you care? Why does any woman care? Women age. It's nature. Are men supposed to think we're immortal or something?
