Fitness Instructors Encourage Gym Etiquette

TYLER — Thanks to New Year’s resolutions, this is a time of year when many take to the gym to get in shape. That’s why it’s important to remember gym etiquette, according to Tyler fitness instructor Natalie Curry. She says, “Especially in peak hours, like about 5:00 or in the early mornings, put away the stuff you take out, like your dumbbells or your benches — anything like that.” Also, she tells KETK, don’t hog the equipment, use a towel, re-rack your weights, and wipe down the machines after you use them. Fitness experts say the rush will end soon, though, as people slack off on those resolutions.
