Locker room etiquette



For many men, going to the gym is a constant in life. Whether it is  free weights, cardio, racquetball or whatever your poison, finishing a workout is satisfying and rewarding. However, nothing can ruin the feeling of accomplishment than seeing other members breaking what you may feel are certain locker room  rules. Some rules are stated in the gym membership while others are just given things we should know by  virtue of  being male adults. 

Researching this post it appears that this is a very touchie subject as some 'given rules' may be apparent to some  and not to others. It also seems that they are regional. For example, some countries have a much more relaxed view of nudity so walking nude from the change room to the shower may not be an issue depending on where you live.  Most though are universal such as not peeing in the shower. 

We feel that we are all adults in the locker room and we should all be able to respect one another without the health club being forced to hand over a booklet of etiquette to every new member.

We would love to hear what you think on this subject.
