Hello steemIt users around the globe 🌍
So today I have a very interesting post for you guys today specifically tailored to GYM visitors and citizens interested in joining a GYM.
I am a very Fitness oriented individual I am the BATMAN after all, so I would like to share my knowledge from being in the gym and sharing with you what to do and what not to do in the gym so let’s get to it!
PUT THE DUMBBELLS BACK ON THE RACK
We all have that guy in the gym that brags and lifts heavy dumbbells but for some odd reason he hasn’t learned about putting things away when finished using them do you do this too well don’t its not nice for the other users of the gym and it makes the gym very untidy adding onto this when putting them back out them in the right place. For some reason when people do re rack the dumbbells/plates they put them in the wrong place not just next to the right place but they put 35kg dumbbell in the 10kg section like what are you doing with yourself!! Please please please if your a gym veteran on a newbie Re rack your weights
DO NOT LEAVE YOUR BELONGINGS NEXT TO A MACHINE AND MOVE TO ANOTHER
My oh my where do we start here. We’ve all seen it. That guy that leaves his drink sweater and phone by a machine and move onto another or goes to the loo or somthing and then comes back and gets frustrated when someone else is using it. Don’t hog/claim machines it’s a public building everyone in the gym is their to get fit stop hogging machines if you need a machine and someone isn’t using it wait or if they have been on it for a while politely ask how many sets they have left.
DO NOT USE YOUR PHONE
I think this is one of the worst things you can do in a gym. if you’re on you’re mobile phone you’re not training the only time you should be on your phone is in the changing room or waiting for a machine don’t be that idiot who sits on the bench press and is on his phone for 10 minutes if you want to use your phone go outside!
DO NOT WALK AROUND THE CHANGING ROOMS BUTT NAKED
Boy whatever wrong with you put your butt crack away. There’s always one that walks from the shower to the lockers butt naked not caring that there are lots of people in the room. Put a towel around you that’s all I ask. Cover up got damn it
DONT COME TO THE GYM JUST TOO HAVE A GOSSIP
In the gym there’s nothing wrong with small talk but your in the gym to et in a workout. Wether your taking it easy or going till complete failure you should prioritise that working out is number one. If your on you mobile or having a long conversation with another gym citizen your not working out.
Oh so you can lift weights and talk wow okay try doing that with a weight that you can barely handle. If your smiling and having a pleasant conversation in the gym you ain’t training wel not to the full potential anyway. Talk after your workout invest in some headphones 🎧
WIPE DOWN THE SWEATY BENCH THAT YOU HAVE JUST USED
There is nothing wrong with sweating buckets of water but at least be kind and wipe down the bench you have just used. No one wants to lay or touch your puddle of sweat.
Well that’s it. There’s my do and donts of the gym. I hope you enjoyed reading. As always give me feedback below. Also tel me what you guys do or don’t do in the gym. I’d Ben interested in all your guys experiences. However if you go to planet fitness don’t bother I’ve heard the ridiculous story’s 🤣
