Don't be late for class
First, it's impolite. Secondly, you will then regret the money spent. The coach doesn't care, you pay for an hour's workout, even if you're 30 minutes late. You can cancel a workout at least a day, but not five minutes before it starts.
Contain your emotions
You should not make a scandal in the gym - neither with the neighbors in the simulators, nor with the coach who reprimanded you. Learn to rule yourself. Otherwise, you may be kicked out and deprived of your club membership.
Put everything back in place
Put in place the loose weights and fitness equipment that you used - hardly anyone will like to search for it all over the room. In addition, someone may not have enough strength to remove the heavy pancakes you left from the bar. There is one more plus in putting things in order - this is a great opportunity to additionally burn a few extra calories.
When swimming, remember: you are not alone in the pool
It is unlikely that you will be pleased to get on the head with fins. Other swimmers don't want that either. Therefore, try to maintain a safe distance, keep to the right, and do not relax on the speed swimming lane.
Practice good hygiene
When using the sauna or hammam, sit on a towel - for safety reasons (you won't get burned for sure) and hygiene. A shower before diving into the pool or entering the steam room is also required. Do not go barefoot in the locker room - do not risk contracting foot fungus. If you've forgotten your flip-flops at home, most clubs can provide you with disposable slippers for a small fee. And one more thing: do not use a body towel as a foot towel - it is unhygienic.
No need to make noise
Your roommates don't need to hear about how much you love Taylor Swift and can easily sing along to her, or how bored you were at your grandmother's birthday. Give up the idea of "accidentally" dropping the barbell so that everyone around you flinched in surprise.
Try not to create queues
In order not to constantly run to the cooler, take a bottle of water from home. If necessary, fill it up at a time when there is no queue next to the cooler, or try to skip those who came up to take a couple of sips.
Use exercise equipment only for its intended purpose
Do not leave your mobile, headphones, or water bottle on the treadmill while walking away. And use it for its intended purpose. Remember: you need to exercise on simulators, not rest, flipping through photos in your smartphone.
Give up perfume
Pre-workout perfume is unnecessary: there is a high risk that your favorite scent with notes of ambergris and vetiver will not seem pleasant to others.
Don't be distracted by other things
If you train with a coach, make it a habit to leave your phone in the locker - this will only increase the efficiency of your training, without allowing distractions. And remember: window dressing in front of a coach or someone else is useless. If you are not a professional athlete, an acrobatic treadmill can end up sadly both for yourself and for those around you.
Be humble
Have you noticed a beauty in the hall? It is difficult to resist demonstration performances or flirting, we understand. But still gather your will into a fist and postpone the acquaintance until the end of the workout. Try to keep a low profile with all members of the club. If you don't want to sound like an upstart, you should not give advice on how to perform exercises - there are professional trainers for this.
Come into the hall light
There are those who like to take a gym bag with them to the gym to the exercise equipment, which is easy to trip over. We hope you are not one of them. Leave all your belongings in the locker in the dressing room and take only what you really need in class, such as a bottle of water.
If you are sick, it is better to stay at home
Before starting classes in a fitness club, do not be too lazy to get a conclusion from a doctor - check the work of the heart, take a blood test, visit a dermatologist's office. Have a cold? You can infect healthy people, so it is better to refrain from going to the gym. If you still want to practice, read this material. It says it all.
Dress decently
Clean shorts, a T-shirt and socks, gym-friendly running shoes should all be in your gym bag. It is better not to appear in the gym with a naked torso, even if you have ideal forms - you did not come to the beach. And remember: it is customary to wear tights with shorts.
Don't pee into the pool
Unfortunately, this also happens. Remember: there is a toilet in the dressing room. Make sure to visit it in advance. You are not a baby after all.
