Gym Etiquette

---

Leave the ego at the door. Everyone started somewhere. Focus on good movement, consistent effort, and becoming a better version of yourself.

Gyms can feel intimidating, especially when you’re new. Say hello, learn some names, and help us make P23 a place where everyone feels welcome.

Encourage the people around you. Celebrate effort, progress, PRs, and even the tough days. We’re all in this together.

Some workouts get tough, that’s part of training. Keep moving, modify when needed, listen to your coach, and give the best effort you have that day.

Please wipe down and return the equipment you use so it’s clean and ready for the next person.

Never drop an empty barbell. It can damage the bar and its bearings. Please lower it to the floor with control.

For everyone’s safety and to protect our equipment, please avoid dropping dumbbells and kettlebells, especially from overhead.

We love having families at P23! For everyone’s safety, children must remain in the designated kids’ area and stay off the main gym floor during classes.

Have fun! For many of us, this is the hour of the day we get to focus on ourselves, work hard, and enjoy being around our P23 community.

Whether you modified the workout, learned a new skill, hit a PR, or simply showed up on a hard day, be proud of the work you put in.
