The rules are simple, if you see any missing, post them below.
- be on time! when you’re not on time you will miss out on your class as it’s dangerous for you to miss the warm-up and instructions given, plus you throw the trainer off track
- do not chat while the trainer is giving instructions
- listen to the trainers, even if you know better, there is a reason why they ask you to do something, if you don’t like it, don’t come to the class
- the trainers are there because they know what they are doing, they love what they do, they’re open to feedback, but should not be questioned or be objected to during a session, unless it has to do with an injury or failure to perform
- have fun while working out, but know when to be serious, giggling during the session becomes annoying to the other people who are serious about their workout
- if you like it, tell your friends, if you hate it, tell your trainer
- use a spotter when lifting heavy shit
- be considerate to the gym equipment
- no push ups on knees, EVER
- we put 100% into you, you put 100% into your workout
- use flip-flops or shoes when entering the toilets, ALWAYS
- clean up after yourself, return equipment where you found it or where it belongs
- respect other people
- If you still look cute after your workout then you did not work hard enough
- make new people feel welcome
- no cheating
- no gossiping (this is not a coffee club)
- bring a towel for your workout, wipe equipment after use
- leave your ego at the door
- puke in the bin and clean up any spills
- if you see someone puking, film it, put it on facebook and tag it (congratulate them on pushing themselves to their max and beyond, and finally, let a trainer know)
- unlike other gyms:
- feel free to scream, grunt and groan as much as you like
- a f@$k or a $&*t here and there happens, but let’s not go to crazy with it
- use chalk, but don’t be like a kid in a candy store and create a dust storm
- talk to other members (before and after your group session)
- when doing martial arts:
- cut your nails
- tie your hair down
- wear a rash guard
- wash your gear regularly
- wear deodorant
- take out or cover any piercing
- wear a rash guard under your Gi (nobody likes a sweaty chest in their face)
- screaming in BJJ is the same as tapping out
- cover any cuts with band-aid and tape
- don’t injure your training partner
- talk with your partner about the intensity you kick, punch or roll
