10 Annoying Gym Etiquette Mistakes (Don't Be That Guy)
http://www.SeanNal.com/articles/train...

Proper gym etiquette should be a pretty straightforward thing: treat other people in the gym the way you want to be treated.

Unfortunately, there's always a handful of guys and girls in every gym who, for whatever reason, choose not to abide by this basic "golden rule".

After many years of training and being in and out of an endless number of different gyms in that time, here are 10 of the most common "annoying gym behaviors" that really stand out...

#1 - Grunting Loudly On Every Single Rep.

If you're truly pushing yourself to the limit to grind out that last rep on a big compound lift like a squat or deadlift, no problem. But in no realistic scenario is screaming across the gym necessary on a bicep curl, tricep kickback or lateral raise.

#2 - Standing Right In Front Of The Dumbbell Rack.

When you stand directly in front of the dumbbells, you prevent people from being able to get the weights they want or from putting their weights away. Simple solution: grab the dumbbells you want, take a few steps back, then do your set while keeping the path in front of the rack clear.

#3 - Not Re-Racking Your Weights.

This is the biggest gym etiquette violation that drives me the most crazy. There's simply no excuse for not re-racking your weights. If you put the weights on the machine, take them off when you're finished. Plain and simple.

#4 - Smelling Bad.

If you're able to single handedly alter the smell of the entire gym because you never wash your workout clothes or wear deoderant, please either adjust your hygiene or start training at home.

#5 - Leaving A Pile Of Sweat On The Equipment.

If you tend to sweat alot during your workouts, that's fine. But that doesn't mean other gym members want to bathe in it. Exercise proper gym etiquette by wiping down the equipment when you're done.

#6 - Using Your Phone In Between Sets.

If you're going to bring your phone into the gym, that's ultimately up to you. But what IS highly annoying is when you get distracted by it in between sets and sit there for 5-10 minutes or more scrolling through social media and texting while someone else is waiting to use the equipment.

#7 - "Reserving" Multiple Machines At Once.

It doesn't matter how much you love supersets or circuit training - if you're working out at a public gym where members share the equipment, placing down a towel or phone to reserve 3 different machines on opposite ends of the gym is poor gym etiquette since it forces people to wait 2-3 times as long to use the equipment.

#8 - Not Re-Racking Weights Evenly.

Maybe this is a bit nit-picky, but it only makes sense to re-rack the 45's with the 45's, the 25's with the 25's and so on. That way, smaller weight plates don't get up getting sandwiched in between the bigger ones, forcing others to unrack muliple weights to get the ones they want.

#9 - Offering Unsolicited Workout Tips.

If you're genuinely trying to caution a bodybuilding beginner from doing something dangerous, that's your call. But don't be the guy who walks around the gym floor dispensing muscle building tips to other members who didn't ask for it.

#10 - Asking "How Many Sets Do You Have Left?"

Some may disagree on this, but I personally don't like when people interrupt my exercise to ask how many sets I have left. When I'm doing my workout I want to focus in on the exercise I'm doing without having someone lurking behind me and pressuring me to finish.
