“Unmasking Gym Etiquette: 7 Shocking Habits You Didn’t Know Were Ruining Your Workout!”
“If you want to do your own workout you should go to the gym on your own, not to boot camp, Cohen said. “It’s very distracting and throws the energy off when one person isn’t practicing.”
Spit Your Gum Out!
For those of you into yoga, you might already be aware of this issue. One thing that can be detrimental to your yoga flow is chewing gum. As nice as it is to chew on your favorite flavor as you meditate, it might not be the best idea.
Lauren Imparato, founder of I.AM.YOU yoga studio in New York City said she has to make her pupils spit the gum out! “If you’re chewing gum, it means you’re not breathing properly, which is the whole way real yoga works,” said Imparato. “I go around and have people spit their gum out if I see it!”
Cut The Circus Act
Okay, you have a lot of muscles and strength. You’re one of the strongest at your gym. We get it! But this does not give you permission to test out your power in all the obscure ways you can imagine (see photo above).
Lauren Gary Rice, Training Manager at DavidBartonGym in Chicago spoke about those who like to pretend they’re in a circus act. “People balance on objects that aren’t meant to be stood on, like stability balls,” Rice said. “They always choose to do it like it’s a dare: Try and balance on this circular object without breaking your neck. Seeing it is believing it.”
