Personal space
Remember that everyone is there to exercise rather than socialize. Please don't initiate conversations with people wearing headphones. The rights of others must be respected.


Don’t linger and sit on equipment
In a gym, weight equipment is considered communal property, so don't sit on a machine while you rest between sets. Especially don't sit there reading a magazine or using your cellphone.
Unload your weight bar
After you finish using a bar, leave it completely empty. Don't assume that everyone can lift the same amount of weight you can. Removing weight plates from a bar takes a fair amount of strength as well as good technique. Don't assume that the next person who comes along has the ability (or desire) to clean up after you.
This clear-the-bar rule doesn't just apply to heavy lifters. Even if you're using only a 10-pound plate, you still need to clear your bar. If the next person who comes along wants to use 45s, he shouldn't be bothered with removing your 10-pounders.
Putting weights back where you found them
When you've removed a weight plate from a bar or when you finish using a pair of dumbbells, return the weights to their designated spot on the rack.
Keeping your sweat to yourself
Wipe off any bench or machine you use.
Slamming weights
When people SLAM! down the weights accompanied by massive GRUNTING! it is rude.
Don't try to lift more than you can handle
Safety first.
Personal Safety
You should not make other gym member feel uncomfortable!
 

We reserve the right to revoke your privilege to use the Woodstock Rec Center if the rules are not followed.
