Gym etiquette

It amazes me how many people don't understand the basics of gym etiquette. There aren't many hard and fast rules in the gym environment besides, don't lift what you can't handle.

But there are a few things that, especially frequent gym goers need to be mindful of.

1. You were small once, be considerate and help the newbies if you can.

2. If you sweat a lot, take a towel. It ain't nice sitting in someone else puddle of sweat.

3. Use a deodorant, it won't hurt.

4. Don't spend your time in the gym on your phone. You're there to workout.

5. If you have women at your gym, treat them respect and don't stare.

6. If you need to shout whilst workout, make sure it is a decent weight!

7. Put your weights away after you've used them, after all you put them there.

8. Respect your fellow gym member. Unless you own the gym, you both have equal rights to be there!
