Just wondering what everyone considers the fine line between the two classes of "The Common Gym Rat". 1) The side that does it for fun/health and nodbody thinks what they do is stange and 2) The ones that are a sore on the face of the BBing community.

I know everyone has different standards of this, just wanting to see how wide of a variation there really will be with the answer.

One who spends entirely too much time partaking in muscle building, strength training, cardiovascular, or aerobic activity. Specifically, one who does so at a health club or gym.

Often used derrogatorily by people who do not partake in or understand this lifestyle, some self-proclaimed gym rats use the term as a status symbol or for positive reinforcement.

Rare: The term is sometimes used with homosexual or dim-witted connotations, but both are entirely unfounded (the author of this definition is a gym rat, and does not fit these connotations).
I prefer to work out at home... I don't need to hang around a bunch of gym rats.

Look at those gym rats! They can name all their muscles, but I bet they couldn't tell you what an adjective is!
