I have to agree with Laura over at Starling Fitness - There’s no such thing as Gym Ettiquette any more - people, is it so hard to bring a small towel and wipe the machines down?

Then you’ve got the “gym characters” - I’m guessing there’s similar people at every gym…

The Powerlifter
Grunting any groaning with every rep on every set - pushing to the limit, and making sure everyone knows about it - no quiet intakes of breath here…

The Tesco Dash
The ones who can’t let go of the handrails on the treadmill and balance on their own - and no matter what speed they’re running at they have to hold the rail - end result, they look like they’re trying to push a shopping trolley over a 4 minute mile.

Anyone else have any gym tales of woe…
