Sure, you’re sweaty (and maybe a little stinky), but that doesn’t mean you should throw etiquette out of the window at the gym. So whether you’re a newbie or a gym rat, you need to follow the right etiquettes.
Rule #1: Use the Right weights:
Can’t use heavy weights? Ask your gym instructor for lighter weights
Rule #2: Ask for help:
Aren’t sure how to use a particular machine or how to do a certain exercise? Don’t try faking it. It’s very easy to hurt yourself or the machine if you don’t know what you’re doing. Ask for help.
Rule #3: Clean the machine after use:
It is required to clean your machine after use. Surely you wouldn’t like working on a machine that is dirty. Carry a towel and clean each machine with the cleaner provided.
Rule #4: Maintain proper hygiene
Wear clean clothes while working out. Wear dry and closed-top athletic shoes .Take a shower after your workout if you feel you need one.
Rule #5: Use the equipment properly:
Do not sit on the equipment’s between sets. Do not use weights while on the cardio machine.
Misusing the equipment can result in injury and/or damage to the equipment; follow directions and instructions. Ask help from the fitness staff for instructions.
