Don't use a machine or if you have to, ask how long they'll be then go do something else until they're done. No one likes having someone hovering over them.

It's not your equipment. You pay to use it, just like everyone else.

Like someone else said, just switch inbetween sets if you both want it for the same reason.
My gym had a contract that stated we cant be selfish, and when not using the equipment it's advised that we rest near but not on it, so that it's more inviting for other people to come over and use it too hah

If you tell them you've got x more sets and they stand around and dont do anything; it doesnt really matter, just let them be awkward fuks.

I only communicate with my muscles in the gym...

If someone asks politely, I return answer. If someone wants to act tough, I tell them I don't know and wait extra long.

Well I just got back from the gym guys. It happened again. This time I was on the pullup bar cycling sets with my mate and this guy asked me how long I was gonna be. I said "3 more sets each sorry", but then said he could cycle in if he wanted. He said sure and then we cycled sets. He was American and from Colorado State University (is this good or bad?)
