Gym Etiquette

Gym etiquettes important when you lift at a health club with lots of people. Its important to follow these simple rules as close as possible to ensure that your fellow gym members are having as good of a workout as you are. Its also very polite to the gym owners because it is there business. and every business should be respected with proper etiquette.

You should always…

Put the weights back where you got them.

Whip off equiptment after use.. expecially cardio equiptment, they can get gross.

Dont hog equipment, and ask people if they are using them before you jump on em.

When its snowy where different shoes in the gym so the equipment isn’t a salty mess.

Whip your sweat with a towel so it doesn’t get on people, or bring an extra shirt when yours gets gross.

Where deodorant! cant stress this enough.. no one wants to workout next to someone with rank pits! lol

Dry off after using the showers, the wet can harm the floor and cause accidents.

Dont talk to people when they are doing cardio, unless its urgent or they don’t care.

Have a good attitude. Having a bad one isnt good for you or the people around you.

Try your best, using effort is key to getting fit and it shows a good example.

Listen to your trainer, do what they tell you to and you’ll see results. Its your money and there time!

Be respectful to your trainer. Its important to respect your trainer. It makes your trainers time, and your time more enjoyable. And you may even make a new friend!

Dont sit inactive on equiptment. This isnt really a big one, but its nice to be mobile. Sitting on equiptment makes people wait if its a crowded gym.

Be respectful of people around you. Its not a compitition. Stick to your own training program.

Dont be late for a trainer. Its your trainers time as well as yours. If you need to cancel a training session contact them at least 24 hours before the lesson.

Place water bottles to the side of they gym, so people dont trip or half to climb over them.
