LESSON 7
What Is Etiquette?
Etiquette is the set of conventional rules of
personal behavior in polite society, usually in the form of
an ethical code that delineates the expected and accepted
social behaviors that accord with the conventions and
norms observed by a society, a social class, or a social
group. In practical speaking, gym etiquette is none other
than respect. That's right, respect. Respect for the
equipment, others, and yourself in the gym. Everybody's
there for the same reason, and nobody wants to be
distracted or held up. Do yourself and others a favor and
follow these simple, easy, and for the most part down-
right obvious rules.
