Yeah .... I was never a fan of that idea .... let's go to a public gym full of strangers that regularly spill or can potentially spill their bodily fluids.

I just clean every machine before I use it.

Who doesn't?

I go a bit farther than most people and bring disinfecting wipes to wipe down before and after I use the machine. After seeing a gym employee pour half of one cleaning spray bottle into another and fill them both with water from the drink fountain, I decided I didn't trust gyms to have proper cleaning supplies.

By the time I die I will probably have spent a full gym's worth of equipment in wipes, but for now I still can't afford a home gym outside a couple free weights.

Can't you basically hit every muscle with a couple free weights anyway? Hell, a kettle bell is probably all you need.

*wipe with towel

Are you intentionally trying to imply that people piss and bleed on the machines? I think people generally just sweat.

Hey man, some of us have to mark our territory before using it.

Sweat is stored in the balls?

Depends how far you want to go with "basically", I suppose.

[–] hex@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago

Content-wise, no. But, if there were two cups, one filled with urine, and one filled with sweat, I wouldn't want to touch or smell either cup.
