Sometimes the barbells are coated by rubber but it doesn&#8217;t change the fact that always you lift the barbell in gym, you <strong>borrow someone&#8217;s belongings.<\/strong> Yes, they all get old and used up also that big metallic barbells which look undestroyable.<strong> The way you respect and care of someone else&#8217;s things in life<\/strong>, that way you should care of barbells and weights in gym which <strong>serve to you for achieving your aims.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpstatic.gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mageblog\/iStock-471213522_1.jpg\" alt=\"11 gym etiquette rules - Have respect to the weights\" width=\"843\" height=\"562\" title=\"11 gym etiquette rules - Have respect to the weights\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Focus_on_yourself\"><\/span>3.

In this case, the better alternative is &#8220;beaten&#8221; ego than damaged spinal canal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpstatic.gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mageblog\/iStock-636891580.jpg\" alt=\"11 rules of gym etiquette - mind your business\" width=\"843\" height=\"562\" title=\"11 rules of gym etiquette - mind your business\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Do_not_drop_the_weights\"><\/span>4.

Do not get us wrong, there are cases in which there is necessary to throw the weights. For example, <strong>in Olympic Games when weightlifting,<\/strong> there are rubber counter crash covers &#8211; in this case, it is absolutely fine to do it. After all, when lifting something this heavy, the most secure way to get in on the ground is to throw it. <strong>But the etiquette calls for doing it only once.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpstatic.gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mageblog\/iStock-482836632.jpg\" alt=\"11 gym etiquette rules - do not drop the weight\" width=\"843\" height=\"562\" title=\"11 gym etiquette rules - do not drop the weight\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The next exception can be in the case when during the <strong>deadlift<\/strong> you are using barbell. During the most difficult phase of the exercise, <strong>when putting the weights back on the ground, the hucklebone is weighted the most.<\/strong> In this case, there is better to throw barbell a little, rather than trying&nbsp;to control it. Both above mentioned cases don&#8217;t mean that we should let the barbells to roll down on the ground after the fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Lay_down_your_yoga_mat_with_care\"><\/span>5.

Yes, everyone sweats in the gym but that doesn&#8217;t mean that we have to lay down on the sweaty bench someone had left this way. Use towel as a pad or wipe the bench after yourself. There are paper towels available in almost every gym. Since you can&#8217;t get rid of bacteria and viruses this way but it is a good habit. It is such as brushing teeth or fastening seatbelt in the car &#8211; it should be automatic habit you don&#8217;t even perceive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpstatic.gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mageblog\/iStock-826252476_1.jpg\" alt=\"11 gym etiquette etiquette - always use the towel\" width=\"843\" height=\"562\" title=\"11 gym etiquette etiquette - always use the towel\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Leave_your_phone_in_the_locker\"><\/span>10.&nbsp;Leave your phone in the locker<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As long as you aren&#8217;t listening to music on the phone, you don&#8217;t need it!
