Attention Getter: Have you ever been to a gym and have felt frustrated because you couldn’t find what you were looking for, or got stuck by someone who had bad hygiene, or had someone come up to you and try to hold a conversation? Well I have, and it was not a pleasant work out!

1. Make sure you bring a towel if your gym doesn’t have them, so you are not dripping sweat everywhere. Wipe up your sweat if it does drip.
