What is It

What is etiquette? Etiquette is the set of conventional rules of personal

behavior in polite society, usually in the form of an ethical code that delineates the
expected and accepted social behaviors that accord with the conventions and norms
observed by a society, a social class or a social group. In practical speaking, gym
etiquette is none other than respect. That right, respect. Respect for the equipment,
others, and yourself in gym. Everybody is the same for the reason, and no body
wants to be distracted or held up. Do yourself and others a favor and follow these
simple, easy, and for the most part down-right obvious rules.

FITNESS ETIQUETTES

Uphold the rules of the facility

 Read, understand, and follow all rules, expectations, and posted signs
 Observe all posted equipment instructions and warnings
 If there is a piece of equipment you do not know how to use, do not assume
you know how to use it and ask for assistance

Using a piece of equipment someone else is using

 Ask if you can “work in between the sets”- if they say no, please be patient
and wait
- When “working in” allow the person to use the equipment after each set
and re-set all equipment adjustments back to where they were before you
started
- You can not claim a piece of equipment by setting a towel or water bottle
on it or next to it

premoistened wipes then discard the wipes appropriately
