Workplace, home or gyms, every place has its own rules and norms. Being well mannered even at the gym is important. Not keeping the workout equipments in their places after use or trying to use pressure to get things your way will not help in the long run.

There are a number of norms that should be kept in mind once an individual joins a gym. They could the general ones like:

• Be polite: If you find that someone else is using the equipments that you usually use, wait for them to finish and hang around near them instead of trying to hurry them or asking the gym manager to force them to give the stuff. They too are members and need the tools. You may politely request for the equipment.
• Put the workout kit back in its place: Whether you are exercising alone or in a group, make sure you put away your kit. Expecting someone else to clear up is not right. Also using a towel to clean the kit after use will make a good impression.
• Wear a proper workout clothes: Wear proper garments while exercising. If ladies are wearing clothes that are shorter, then checking out whether their torso is well draped or not is important, especially while jumping or running.

Besides these, there are a few more important aspects to remember.

• Give your ears a break from listening to the caller tunes. If you are expecting important phone calls, keep your mobile on the vibrant mode. The best choice would be to leave your cell behind. Be serious about your workouts.
• Don’t linger while using the gym machines. Not only do you give your sweating time a gap, you also keep others waiting. This is not done. So, do workouts within your time limit. Put back the gear and freshen up before you leave.
• Staring is being disrespectful. Watching people closely while they exercise may make them self-conscious. Moreover, ogling at lady members is not gentlemanly.
• Be quiet: Making all sorts of sounds while doing the workouts is ok at your residence. But, at the gym making such noises is not allowed.
• Answer when you are asked. Offer advices when asked. There are experts to guide the members. Disturbing people should be avoided.

Sticking to these norms and manners at the gym will help to maintain a good gym record.
