1- Turn off the WIFI, 3G, 4G and any other internet related connection
Congratulations for finally hitting the gym and working on that dream body of yours! Whether you are working at Abou Garo or at Fitness Zone, checking-in at Foursquare and taking that selfie to post on Instagram and Facebook with those putrid hashtags (#sweating #stink #burning #fat –on a side note you need to learn to properly hashtag) do not make that skinny body and those squatted hips. Drop the phone, disconnect, enjoy your training and relax for an hour or two; the world won’t come to an end during this time, I promise!
2- Stop Socializing
Here’s a quick reminder of the gym definition: a gym is a place, typically a private club, providing a range of facilities designed to improve and maintain physical fitness and health.
While it mind sound fun to socialize with new people, especially after long working hours, do not go to the gym if you don’t intend to work-out. It’s not a must to hit the treadmill right after you punch-out of the office, however, it is a must to walk/run on that treadmill once you hit it. Standing there spilling dirty words on your boss with another wanna-be-gym-addict standing on the treadmill next to you is not acceptable. Would you like your coffee served with or without sugar m’aam?
3- Stop using the gym WIFI
“kill shi bi baleish kattir minno” but saving your Megabites and downloading those new apps and latest updates while at the gym is disrespectful and annoying. Everything has its place and the gym is not a place for uploads, downloads, updates, skype sessions with live cams (walaw! with all your sweat, blondie?), week-end Instagram uploads (btw, you should also learn that Instagram is to be used instantly (one or two pictures as a max, Facebook is for albums!!!) and instantly, on the spot, except on Thursday, Thursdays are okay for throwback memories)
Tip of the day: we have a list of coffee shops that provide free WIFI to their visitors, in case you insist on saving that $10 per month and going cheap.
4- Stop worrying about your looks
The gym is a place to turn hot and sexy. But during the process, there are no books to tell you that you should look good while it happens; make-up and up-dos are not made for the gym, and that hot guy you really like… oh well, maybe you should know that he is a lot more interesting to see you working hard than looking at the mirror while burling those weights (and for God’s sake, it’s time to move to the 2kgs already!)…. Back to the guy? Oh well, what every girl should know is that men are fond of a girl who is not scared to sweat her ass off while training. Train good and hard ladies, good and hard!
5- Stop dressing inappropriately
Modeling around, half naked, with that extra fat bump exposing from your outfit is disgusting. I’m not attacking you and I highly appreciate your effort of working hard, burning that fat, and not disgusting me at the beach next month, but seriously now… get an outfit that fits you, not your baby sister!
