I am lucky, I've always had the ability to ignore what others do at the gym. Like I wear gloves and wrist wraps, people always stare like I'm wimpy. My I type for a living, and school, having messed up hands and wrist are not a option. So I've learned to just do what I do. I have gym friends, and I'm social, but I'm focused and don't much think about what others think. I'll ask questions to those who will share though.
