Things to Consider When Working Out in the Gym
And yet most people don’t remember these simple guidelines
How to Wipe Down Equipment
When wiping down machines and equipment, wipe where your head was first and where you butt was last. No reason to be spreading butt sweat all over the place. And it would be nice if you didn’t spread that butt sweat where someones head may go after you.
Look Around
Look around before you use equipment or machines. Most people don’t stand around and guard their workout area. Look around and see if anyone is nearby or could be taking a break. We’ve all seen those awkward interactions where it is two dudes trying to communicate with headphones on explaining how one of them was there first. Avoid all of that. Look around.
Don’t Hog
Don’t hog multiple machines at once. This doesn’t need much explanation. It’s not cool.

Let’s work together to make the experiences of others a bit more comfortable. Basically, we are all in the same boat and we all have similar goals while at the gym. A little consideration goes a long way.
