Even at a gym—a place where tank tops, excessive sweating, and mild grunting are considered acceptable—rules of etiquette must and should be followed. Yes, it may be different than, say, a luxury restaurant where almost everyone is quiet, but a gym is still a public place. It is an establishment where people interact with other people, a place where individuals should remember to act as civilized members of the society. With this, I give you the “David Wayne Fish list of the most annoying gym habits:”
• In my opinion, leaving workout equipment full of sweat is one of the most irritating gym habits ever. Picking up slippery weights or lying down in a stranger’s pool of sweat can easily destroy not only the gym-goers’ appetite for working out but also their entire day. For this reason, I advise people to at least carry a towel with them every time they work out, ready to wipe the sweat that comes rolling down their foreheads. If they don’t have any towels, they can use their sweatshirt or the paper towels provided by the health club.

• Another frustrating thing that I see almost every week is people forgetting to unload their weight bars, overlooking the fact that not everyone can lift the same amount of weight they can. People shouldn’t assume that the next person who will use the weight bars has the strength and capability needed to remove the weight plates. By removing the plates and putting them back in their specific containers after use, gym-goers can stop giving other people a hard time.

Whenever you go to a gym, remember that you do not own the place. You share the establishment with people who are just like you—individuals who want to stay fit and to lead healthy lifestyles.
