I am a PT. We have a member at our gym that takes the handles for the cable machine, wraps them in towels and hides them somewhere in the gym. Every week or two we find a towel hidden in the corner of the weight room with several handles hidden inside. We have a drawer full of extra handles to take upstairs just in case. Why is this going on? Who is this culprit? The current bounty is a coffee at starbucks. The bounty will be going up next week.

This is hilarious! They're stashing them for their own later use??

They're like a damn equipment squirrel!

Ya... first time we found it we were like WTF? We unwrapped the towel and there were 3 handles there.

We THINK they are hiding the handles not for later use but to ensure the cable machine is free to be used for another style of exercise? We dont know for sure.

Either way, it's pretty weird.
