Proper Gym Etiquette
Are you committing gym no-no’s that have others around you silently cringing? What if you are and you don’t even know it?
Most gyms and health clubs have a list of rules that their patrons need to follow when using the facilities. These policies are put in place to insure that the work out area stays comfortable, organized and sanitary for all users. The rules tend to be the same for most gyms and it is important that you abide by them to make the workout experience pleasant for all. Below is a list of these rules and other important gym etiquette that shows consideration of others around you.
Practice Good Hygiene – There is nothing worse than working out and right next to you is someone emitting a foul body odor. This is disruptive and bothersome to the people trying to get a work out done, but instead are being distracted and repulsed by someone who chooses not to wear deodorant or wash their workout clothes on a regular basis.
On the flip side, don’t overload on perfumes and other strong scents that could be equally distracting to other exercisers and may even cause breathing difficulties for those with asthma.
Don’t Hog the Machines – There is usually a 30 minute time limit for cardio machines at busy times in the gym. This is to ensure that all members get a chance to use them. Respect these times. If you want to have a longer cardio session, then switch to another machine, or do some weights and come back afterwards.
Clean Up After Yourself – This is one of the most important rules to follow. After using a machine, free weights or even a gym mat, whether you have sweated or not, wipe it down. All gyms have sanitary sprays or wipes and you must use them. This prevents the spread of germs and will help keep all members healthy.
You Leave It, You Lose It – This applies to all equipment in the gym, but has specific reference to the weight lifting machines. Yes it is recommended to take breaks in between sets but do not wander off and expect to just hop back on the machine. Other users cannot keep tabs on where you go and shouldn’t have to. To keep a machine, just take your break beside it, so that everyone knows it is still being used.
