6 "MISTAKES" TO AVOID AT THE GYM

Hey, guys!
Over my gym journey, I've gone to a number of different gyms across the U.S. and have had a handful of colorful experiences. Interestingly enough, the majority of awkward situations I've been in have always been at my home gyms.
In this video, I've compiled 6 of the most common gym "mistakes" to avoid. Not all of these are necessarily "mistakes", but more so things to keep an eye out for! Some of these may seem obvious, but all the ones I've included are ones that I've experienced personally and see done regularly at my own gym.
As always, all of our gym journeys of ones of learning & growing, so never feel bad if you find that you might have done one of these before--so have I.
What else would you add to this list of things to avoid doing at the gym??
(Entire outfit is from Alphalete Athletics)

Hey, guys! 💕 What else would you add to this list?? Have you ever had any strange encounters at the gym? 🤔 Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy your weekend. 😘

Summary: 1. Don’t invade personal space of others 2. Don’t use equipment that’s already being used 3. Don’t leave equipment around 4. Don’t unrack one side of the barbell first 5. Don’t feel rushed when using a high demand equipment 6. You don’t need to use clamps on the smith machine

One thing i noticed is the post workout wandering faces. So you see someone who just finished a tough set, they are sweaty and they go into this posture pause when resting.. you would think they are staring at you but really they are not so don't feel like you are being judged! Really when you are wandering you have no control over who your eyes land on

Thank you so much for your videos!! Omg, the part about removing plates when you're done with exercise - I experienced this yesterday. Someone left 45 lb plates on a barbell and I'm on the smaller side, so it was a struggle removing them but thank goodness I got help. Wish more people would clean up after themselves.

That’s the worst! 😩 I honestly feel like if you’re strong enough to put the weights on the machine, you can also take them off. 😪

I am on week 4 of your Build II Program and have been in the gym consistently 5-6xs a week for the past two months and I literally can’t believe the changes I’ve seen - in my mind and my body - I wish I could post the photo in here to encourage others to get your program! You were the first person I found on RU-vid who explained everything perfectly and took the fear out of the machines at the gym - thank you for all you do! ♥️

Hey girl, I just wanted to thank you for all your videos. I found you ~9 months ago when I started my fitness journey and you really helped me feel confident and enjoy my time at the gym. I’ve stayed consistent since then and have learned so much from you and other great creators here. I couldn’t have done it with you! And to all the new people getting into fitness: stick with it, I promise it’s worth it. Both mentally and physically

That is so annoying when people ask” how many sets do you have left* it doesn’t happen unless I’m done with the machine. I’ve noticed the time that I go to the gym…it’s usually the same group of us there. It’s so consistent that I know when my fellow gym homies are doing lower or upper body😂 it’s a smaller gym so everyone is pretty considerate. Great tips as usual!

Could you please do a video on how to transition from smith machine to barbells? I’ve been using the smith for months now and can lift pretty heavy with it. But last week when I tried using a barbell with just 60% of my normal weights, I was struggling bec I was kind of swinging from side to side from imbalance. 😪

I had someone literally walk away from the seated cable row, walked across the gym to another machine, so I assumed they were done grabbed the attachment and started using it. The dude comes back 5 minutes later and he had the audacity to literally take the attachment back and said "I wasn't done". I had already done 2 sets at this point and would have been totally okay with him ASKING if he could get his last set in, but he just took it!
