Gym Etiquette : My list of four

[Hammerblow]

Gym Etiquette : My list of four, feel free to add to or take away . This is kind of a rant in the first place.

1. Wash your nasty nasty gym clothes everyday or change them, never wear the same clothes with out washing them , that is just really disgusting, your mum failed to teach you personal hygiene, do not make us all suffer because of it.
   
2. Clean the equipment when you finish with it, especially if there is visible sweat on the equipment it takes 10-15 seconds just do it. I do not care if your a sexy 10 in yoga pants, I am not licking your sweat up.
   
3. When you are finished with the equipment, take your plates off, for the love of god I have a certain momentum
   I like to work at and you are messing with my groove.
   
4. Last and most importantly get your fucking arse up when you finish a set, do not rest in between sets on the equipment, other people are working around you be considerate. God forbid you are taking selfies or using your phone in between sets on a piece of equipment, I may go to prison for attempted murder the next time someone pulls that shit,.

@Hammerblow AMEN!!!!!!  Hands down the most annoying thing for me is the talking on the phone while using the equipment.  Is anything their yelling into the handset even important!!??  NO!!!  It drives me insane!!  I work out at a high end health club and at $2000 a year dues shut your pie hole so I can run in piece!!!  Is tripping the person on the treadmill next to you bad form?  LOL!!

The other thing that bothers me is people throwing towels, robes etc on the ground of the locker room for the house keeping staff to clean up.  Pretty sure that's not your mom working there and no one wants to touch your nasty ass crap anyway!!!

Last but surely not least.  The hot tub......it's a place to relax not teach your kids to swim the english channel!!  I guess I've been harboring some anger about this huh!!?

Ha! Just a wee bit ma man. But all legitimate points. It sounds like a very fancy health club though you need to get yourself to an old school gym if there’s one in your area m. It’s amazing what thst can do for motivation just getting away from a corporate style gym. 

I’d also like to add guys who take their tops off in the gym to get insta vids taken aka trying to show off. Especially when they are nothing special. I usually have about 2-3 layers on when I train I’m comfortable in my skin not to scream “I'm a bodybuilder look at me” Also it’s Scotlsnd and fucking freezing still right now mate.

@HammerblowThere are only a few of gyms in my area.  The fancy one or a couple filled with kids.  Not the maternal type I'm afraid.  For me the gym is my mental escape as well as physical.  Running is my thing and light weights.  You sound like a badass in the gym where as I just try to stay fit mentally and physically.   It's the silent ones like you that don't stare at themselves that have the great bods and the confidence to go with it.  That's my opinion anyway.

My boyfriend is Scottish and can't stand the show offs at the gym.  I think he's going to punch this  physician he calls Dr. Dick!!  He has a temper....must be the Scotsman in him.  When he gets going I can't even understand him his accent is so thick!

I love the sound of him already! We are quick to get fucked off with something but in an endearing way.
