10 Essential Gym
Etiquette Rules
1. Wipe Down Equipment
Always wipe down
machines, benches, and other equipment after use with a towel or disinfectant
wipes to keep the space clean for others.
2. Re-Rack Weights
Put dumbbells,
barbells, and plates back in their designated spots when you’re done to
maintain order and safety.
3. Don’t Control
Equipment
Avoid sitting on
machines or benches for extended periods, especially during peak hours. Let
others “work in” if you’re resting between sets.
4. Use Headphones
Keep your music or
podcasts to yourself by using headphones. Avoid playing music out loud.
5. Keep Conversations
Minimal
Avoid chatting loudly
or for too long, especially near others who are focused on their workout.
6. Respect Personal
Space
Give people enough room
to exercise without crowding them or interrupting their movements.
7. Avoid Dropping
Weights
Unless it’s necessary
for safety, don’t drop weights on the floor; it can be disruptive and damaging
to the equipment.
