If I Could Write The Locker Room Rules...

[doc]

Don't incline the treadmill to the max and then walk hanging on to the control panel for dear life. It doesn't do anything for you and it's bad for the treadmill causing it to break down more often, meaning I can't use it while it's out of order.

I want to point and laugh out loud when I see that!

Anyone who wants to walk around naked, go right ahead, BUT do not complain if people are looking or even staring. After all, what did you expect? You're primping, walking, chatting, blowdrying, putting on makeup... in public - naked.

Me, I wear a towel except for a the moment while I fiddle with my bra strap, undies and the rest of my clothes. It's not a show, I'm just getting dressed. I'm not going to try to keep a towel on while also trying to pull a shirt over my head.

My current pet peave-

Spin bikes - and other equipment and placement in classes - is first come first serve. Don't throw your towel or jacket over the bike to save it for your friend who is going to run in 10 minutes after the class starts. If someone is there before your friend, they deserve the bike/treadmill/step...whatever.
Don't save!!!!

Fortunately the end of the new years resolusionist period is coming closer and these people are starting to not frequent the gym as much. Just us hard cores left.

Please, dear lord, please flush the toilet after you used it. We're all potty trained here and know how to use this thing called a toilet that allows running water to take that stuff away. I dont want to see it and Im not your mommy, so Im not gonna flush unless there arent any toilets left and I really gotta go! If it's not working, go to management and tell them the problem.
