Mortifying exercise moments

So... I've just begun to try to get in shape this fall and my mode of working out has been yoga. I have to say, I really like it. Even when my forehead is sweaty and my hamstrings feel like they might just detach themselves from my legs.
There is, however, one minor, off-putting detail. Each time I practice my shoulder stands, I queef! It's so embarassing, and I don't know how to stop. :sad11: I guess I'm just starting this post as a place to commiserate and share all the uncomfortable moments that happen to us as we try to exercise. *sigh*

Oh, sorry! Really - I can understand how you feel. That's only happened to me during sex which was embarrassing enough. However, anyone who can do a shoulder stand deserves applause, regardless. I'm not even sure what a shoulder stand is! (but it sounds really hard to do).
Once when I was in an aerobics class I must have eaten beans at lunch earlier, and I suddenly farted something awful. I was in the front row right near the instructor and she immediately danced away from me.
I was mortified because it smelled. It was years ago and I'm still embarrassed even writing this, but I wanted to commiserate.
Highly porous. Color over grey.
I love all the Curl Junkie products. Still experimenting with gels and curl creams. Still hoping for 2nd day hair....
Every day is a gift :flower:
Turtles, this happened to me once also, but fortunately, there wasn't anyone around. I fell on my A$$ but wasn't hurt. I never heard of a gym with cameras! That's intimidating.

CP, that's hilarious!!! The dancing away part... But also mortifying.
Anyway, I'm in yoga class and we go to do triangle pose. Just as I'm getting set and really working on getting my shoulders open, my yoga mat rips - loudly. Everyone turns to look because of the noise. One foot is sliding since its still on part of my yoga mat and now I'm flailing around. Next thing I know, my pants rip too and I fall over.

Yep, happened to me too. In the middle of a 24 hour fitness though. With (of course) a really muscled studly dude on the stairmaster next to me.
I never went back. lol
HATE: plopping, FOTE on wet hair, BRHG
LOL! Try engaging your mula bandha (pelvic muscles) BEFORE going into an inversion (or a one-legged down dog) to keep out the air.
It's pretty normal, though, in yoga class to hear all kinds of bodily sounds. I was teaching a class with a new husband & wife couple one morning. The wife accidentally farted and instead of just ignoring it, the husband jumped up and asked (very loudly) "Are you o.k.?" The woman was mortified and they never came back. I felt so bad for her. The class would have thought nothing of it if he hadn't brought it to everyone's attention.
I was on the eliptical and let loose a SBD fart. A guy was on a treadmill near me and he stopped dead in his tracks when the smell hit him. :pottytrain1: He ended up falling and went flying. He wasn't hurt. :laughing8:
I try to get on the treadmills or elipticals that are far away from people. And it near fails that someone will get next to me to start a conversation but they never stay long....:laughing9:
You have just cheered me up no end. :sign5:
