Gym Mannerism 101 - Top 10 {actually 13 } tips
- Always wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water or an alcohol-based hand sanitizer before and after workouts, which is the best defense against becoming infected.
- Keep all cuts, scrapes, and wounds clean and covered with an appropriate bandage.
- Avoid all contact with the wounds and bandages of other individuals.
- Never share personal items, such as razors or towels.
- If the gym does not provide antiseptic disposable towels, disinfected sprays or wipes to clean equipment, bring your own and wipe down before and after use. Note: According to Green, using a towel alone to remove perspiration from equipment does not protect against infection.
- Bring a towel to use as a barrier to your skin and any contact surface on shared equipment. Always place the same side of the towel face down on the contact surface of the equipment. Use a different towel to wipe sweat off the body.
- Use liquid soap dispensers instead of bar soap when showering.
- Sit on a towel in a locker room or sauna to avoid direct contact with the benches.
- Cover any exercise mat with a clean towel or bring your own mat.
- Never touch your eyes, nose, or face during a workout, since most germs are transmitted that way.
- Make sure the health club is clean and well-ventilated.
- Ask the staff to outline the facility's cleaning and disinfection policies and procedures.
- Avoid exercising at the gym when you're sick to prevent spreading your germs to other gym members.
