The only reason you should have your phone on you during a workout is if your music is on it or if you're expecting a medical emergency of a loved one. Annoys the shit out of me. Even more so than girls who come to the gym with their guys, wear jeans, and actually act like they're able to spot their men while they're doing a press. Get the **** out of my way. Don't you even dare to look up at me as I walk past you.

Whew! I know I feel better now.
I listen to music on my phone so I've always got it and I work out over lunch so I often get calls during my workout and, depending who it is, I sometimes take the call. I always walk off into the corner so I don't annoy anyone, but I don't know why anyone would have a problem with it.

Also, my wife often works out with me and spots me. She doesn't have to be able to curl the weight I'm pressing to do it. If I can't get my last rep, 20 lbs of assistance is more than enough to help me get the last rep.
