Gym Etiquette for Dummies

We have all seen it, the 'meat head'. The guy that annoys the woman, infuriates the men and drives the Gym Manager insane. Chatting up women on the treadmill, screaming out in pain, and throwing down the weights between sets!
This guy obviously needs to be told the rules or Gym Etiquette to keep everyone happy whilst training.
I will break it down nice and simple for you:

1. Wear the right clothing.
You may have a nice body, but we don't want to see it, you may think it's fashinonable to wear those shorts, but trust me pal, it's not. Have a bit more consideration for our eyes!

2. Bring a towel.

You sweat, she sweats, we all sweat, it's gonna happen, FACT! Let's just try and catch the drips before they happen all over the floor and Treadmill, if you can't, move on to tip 3

3. Wipe your Machine Clean.

Please, after your run, or you 100kg Bench press, wipe the machine! All you need to do is grab the spray bottle and the hand towels allocated and wipe. It's that simple.

4. Watch your Language.
No F*&^king need for any bad language no matter how much you think it hurts!

5. Clean up
PUT THE WEIGHTS BACK! Your strong enough to take them off the rack, you can put them back on again!

6. Don't fool around.
I don't really need to say anything. Do I??

7. Concentrate on YOUR workout.
It's very off putting having someone watching you workout while you struggle on your last rep. Concentrate on your own workout out.

8. Don't talk to me!!
Don't talk to me when I am on the treadmill or holding heavy weights above my head. Any questions about what I am doing, ask me in the changing rooms or in the Cafe afterwards.

9. Share the machines.
Don't spend 1hr on the treadmill walking with your headphones on laughing at the tv, some of us actually want to run!

10. Get off your Mobile
No one wants to hear about the deal your going ahead with, if it's important, take it outside, if not, turn your phone off and focus on getting fit!

11. Don't hang around the chaning room.

Well, first off. Put you pants back on on wrap the towel around your waist, it's an ugly sight to see.

Secondly there is no need to spend 30 mins in the shower. Most off us only spend 5 mins max. Get in and get out.

Lastly, don't pea in the shower and remember to take away your sweaty shorts with you, it's not nice to stand on entering the shower!!

and for those off us that use the Spa......

Wear the correct clothing, and we mean clothing!!!

And Please, please, please. shuuuuuussssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh, we are trying to relax.

Feel like your ready to start training properly?
