8 Dont's When In The Gym , Unwritten Rules !!!

[Torres]

Here are 8 ‘Gym Don’ts’ we feel every gym rat, bodybuilder, weekend warrior, etc. should be following:

1 – Don’t sit on workout equipment without actually working out (be considerate to those either in a hurry or serious about their training.)

2- Don’t be on your cellphone in the gym (the gym is for working out, so workout! This however does exclude the typical gym selfie to showoff that supa dupa pump but don’t push it.)

3. Don’t go to the gym on an empty stomach (carbohydrates, fats and protein provide the body with energy therefore it’s recommended you eat prior to your workout to avoid excessive exhaustion or worse.)

4. Don’t try to find your next girlfriend or boyfriend at the gym (the gym is for exercise not for flirting, take your pursuit for companionship elsewhere please and thank you.)

5. Don’t approach someone in the middle of their set to converse (be courteous and don’t interrupt an individual getting their swole on!)



6. Don’t go the gym without water (hydration is extremely important for bodily function and maintaining the intensity of your workouts, so drink up!)

7. Don’t bring your ego into the gym (don’t try lifting weight you struggle immensely with and cannot accomplish clean reps with, drop the macho man act at the door and make gains the smart way.)

8. Don’t go to the gym with a defeated mindset (believe your pending workout will be the best workout you’ve ever had, give it 100% and go above and beyond with intensity to get the most out of your session.)

Re: 8 Dont's When In The Gym , Unwritten Rules !!!

i would rather see these as a spin off of your list:

dont slam the fucking weights. the negative is just as important as the lift. and if you cant control it back to the ground then it is to damn heavy and i dont like training with bent ass bars.

if you dont know what you are doing then ask someone please

just because you call yourself a power lifter doesnt mean you are strong as hell and you can take the squat rack or a bench for 2 and a half hours.

and being a power lifter by title and then posting that your 355 3 rep max on squats is more than 90% of the rest of the gym is a freaking joke. some of us will front squat that for 10 reps and make you our *****. not to mention i have seen chicks that are stronger and have better form

fat dudes or fat power lifters in tank tops are a no go and should be banned

fat chicks in yoga pants and tight tops are also a no go. just because they go up to 2 3 or 4xl doesnt mean you should actually wear it

if you have dog shit breath then either brush your nasty teeth or chew chewing gum

fellas no matter how big your junk is or how big you think you legs are do not and i repeat do not wear tights your wife or gf's yoga pants or hot shorts. just because you see pros doing it in the mags or in videos doesnt mean they wear it every day. most stay covered up all the time. not to mention you looked like a dumb ass and your legs nor your package are ever quite as big in real life as they are in your head.

I agree with all of those, the old has been bodybuilder with the string tank on, give me an f'in break..

Baggy jeans or shorts half off your butt, take a hike.

But, fasted cardio or fasted lifting is an exception to not eating before training.

Nice list lol!

This is one of my biggest aggravations in the gym. Nothing pisses me off more than grabbing a dumbell that's all bent to crap because someone can't control themselves.

Re: 8 Dont's When In The Gym , Unwritten Rules !!!

You should not use more than one piece of equipment at a time, unless the gym is not busy. I hate it when I go to use the smith machine and a guy doing dumbbell curls says he is using it. I always say "no, you are using dumbbells - the smith machine has no one using it - so either get to using it or I will".

Re: 8 Dont's When In The Gym , Unwritten Rules !!!

I hate when I'm at the gym and there is the "noisey guy". Just grunting and making the worst noises. I'm just like "shut up already"
