Gym-Hero 

That person next to you at the gym that is so over the top extra. Can’t just do a normal exercise but instead has to play the “hero” so that everyone else in class knows they are the best. Signs you are a “gym hero”: 1. You always pull the heaviest weights and then throw them on the ground so people hear the thud, 2. You incorporated push-up in with every standard exercises as a way to show off and 3. You do something really abnormal like run at the fasters speeds at the highest inclines on the treadmill to attract attention and praise.

Studies have shown that calling out this behavior to said “gym hero” only amplifies their desire to strut their stuff. Authorities on the matter suggest you try your best to ignore it.
