I posted about the rules in our compound gym before. Today, I noticed there was another board of more-detailed corkers regulations on another wall. I’ve circled two of my favourites below:
But what about the grunters, I found myself thinking?
My prize, though, for the funniest gym rule (‘Please wipe sweat on the machines. Thank you’) still goes to Asia Vu, a wonderful blog about expat life in South Korea.
Towels AND gloves? So as not to leave fingerprints maybe? Or am I watching too much TV?
I had in my mind fluffy winter gloves, lol! But then I realised they must mean weight-lifting gloves – I wonder if that’s obvious to everyone else but me!
Wow, thanks for the shout out, but, I think the towels and gloves rule is actually funnier – better mental picture, you know! And honestly – the thing I hate in my gym is the guys who lift enormous weights and then drop them with an earthshaking crash that vibrates the whole building – repeatedly – despite the sign that says, “Please do not drop the weights.” I wouldn’t care if each subsequent crash didn’t take me by surprise – I’m just convinced someday I’ll fall off the elliptical trainer after one of them. It seems highly possible.
Especially as the sound must echo round the gym! Don’t fall off!
