You sound like an asshole, honestly. Hope this helps.
No leaving to get water? can't do your own workouts? Since when did weight training become un-individualistic

Whoever reads this letter....please kick me as hard as you can in my nuts :)

You keep everyone on the same routine you risk stagnating the ones that achieve little from it. Everyone responds differently, that's just how it is.

Don't for get about your 13-0 with 11 knockouts boxing record and ability to gain and lose inches in your height from week to week.
If a guy walked in to the locker room standing 6'1 and came out standing 6'4, I know I certainly wouldn't fuck with him and would probably sign anything he put in front of me.

No Charles Manson death stares allowed.

Here's my rules-
-Don't sit on the leg equipment. Some people actually use it.
-Don't mean mug females or stand next to them while they train cockblocking everyone else. You have 3 minutes a day to try to "hit that".
-Don't mix your protein in the locker room after working out.
-Don't treat the locker room sink like your bathroom. Nobody needs to see you standing there naked, shaving like you don't have a home.
-

I got that part, if needed he could take this list and modify it to his needs, it's not that far off. BTW, most of these "children" you refer to could run circles around you in the field and in the gym. Several have scholarship offers to play D1 football.

Since you keep referring to them as "children". Just needed to set the record straight.

Idk man, I'm not buying it.
-

Just assumed since they needed rules like "no chewing gum", that they were not adults.
-
You keep everyone on the same routine you risk stagnating the ones that achieve little from it. Everyone responds differently, that's just how it is.
Not everyone is on the same routine.

stop doing chest on fucking mondays....
donk jerk off in the locker room...save that shit for the yoga room

We have the same rules set for our college teams as well.
-
Honestly, the only thing I care about is that they put away their weights and that I care about a lot. My gym should always be in good order. Not putting your weights away=amateur. I care a little about cell phones, but it's so seldom a problem that I can't say that I really think about it.
-

-

Oh, you mean, the kids. Do you ever speak without contradicting yourself?
-
If you are hot chick you should be working out in spandex shorts and some kind of sports belly shirt.
she should do lots of exercises that involve bending over.
and those open and close your legs machines are a must every workout.
....my rules :)

-
don't shit or piss on the floor. put your weights back after use. don't tie up more than 2 pieces of equipment at the same time because ah-nuld says you must superset.don't rest on benches when done. dems all the rules ya need.
-
Oh, you mean, the kids. Do you ever speak without contradicting yourself?
Where did I contradict myself?
-
and stop asking me about drug laws in the gym...i am just going to lie to you in hopes that you will get arrested so i dont have to be bothered by you anymore..
bench
-
a lot of gyms have signs in the locker rooms now saying no taking or selling of drugs. thats why most guys do it in the toilet stalls or parking lots.

You seem like the type of guy who would enjoy doing it in toilet stalls.
-
The ipod rule, no leaving for water rule and only prescriber workouts (unless it is team training ur rules are for) are silly IMO

Yep, reardens right, I don't get it. No difference between children and kids!

So Ursus (and others who disagree) should I just let the team just run around and do what they want? Not trying to confrontational, just want input.

I wouldn't join a gym that didn't have one of these.

Why wouldn't they want to be there to work hard? What kind of person isn't self motivated to get results?
Oh wait.... kids.
-
Yep, that's the right answer.
-
If Yates walked into a gym and started showing people how to train, people would flock to him and work as hard as they could. Because they know he knows his shit, and they want results. He wouldn't have to ban people from walking out to get a water because they wouldn't be loitering around avoiding coming back to train with him.
Now, if you have to post up a rules board with 15-20 rules on it, it probably means nobody gives a shit enough to listen to you because they don't view you with reverence or respect enough to do so.

Ok, fair enough but I'm sure you realize we're talking about two different situations. I posted the rules I have for my teams and on campus facilities, not a commercial gym. I also posted this to give the thread starter an idea, because thats what he asked for, like I said, he could use it and modify it to his needs.
As far as my rules are concerned, most are for safety reasons but also discipline, most kids don't know their way around a weight room and as kids go, they need structure. Example, the ipod rule. If a kid is listening to an ipod with 40 other kids in the room and they cannot either hear me, their spotter or anyone else trying to gain their attention, it's a hazard but in a couple of the school weight rooms they have good sound systems, when they ask me if they can bring CD's the answer is always yes as long as it's not vulger, whatever it takes to motivate they're ass to train, they can bring it. The water and water bottle only rule is basically to keep the gym clean, spill anything other than water and it's a mess besides, water is the hydration liquid on the planet. You are right about one thing, it's hard to keep some kids motivated, it's not that they're not listening, most of the time it's because they are lazy, those are the one's that usually don't make the team and get cut. Varsity athletes are pretty easy to motivate because most want to win and they know that they are at that age, if talented enough could be on their way to a scholarship somewhere because they get looked at.

This is what I have for my school teams. Faculty leaves it up to me to set the rules.
Strength and Conditioning Weight Room Rules
4. Food and drink are not permitted; the only exception is water in a plastic bottle
8. Athletic wear is required. Shorts, t-shirts, and athletic shoes are mandatory.
11. Collars must be used when there is weight on the bar.
12. Spotters must be used at all times.
Response to 4: Why water in a plastic bottle? Whynot water in a canteen, or something environmentally safe? Seems odd you would demand plastic.
Response to 8: Whynot sweatpants or sweatshirts? I work out in sweatpants all the time because I'm not comfortable in shorts in a gym. Also protects against infections
Response to 11: Even smith machines?
Response to 12: Even for calf raises, leg presses, leg extensions, dumbbell flys, concentration curls, dips, any cable work, most machines, etc?

ok mr. gym nazi

Rack your weights when you're done
Take your shit with you when you've finished with the equipment. Cell phones will not 'reserve' a bench while you spend 10 minutes between each set talking to your mates.
NO GROUPS OF 3 OR MORE TEENAGERS WILL BE ALLOWED ANYWHERE NEAR ANY EQUIPMENT. (I ask again - what...the...fuck.... is it with groups of 3 teens who fucking come in and spend an hour lounging on shit and doing fuck all. FUCK they piss me off. Use the equipment and fuck off - this is not a fucking cafe!).
Ok - rant done - they're the rules I'd have on the wall.
-
LOL @ gym nazi haha!

You better not use gear, have fake tits, use a cellphone, tan, or enjoy any facet of life in or out of
Gold's Gym Las Vegasthe facility.

LOL @ gym nazi haha!
not going to respond to me?

When I get to a computer, kinda hard on a blackberry.

Coach you sound like my old strenght coach - similar rules in my old high school gym, especially for team lifting sessions. Man, that guy is gold in my book!
Remove weights from the machine when you are doing working out
Let other work in with you in between sets
Those are my two big ones!

Is they gym solely for the team?
If so by all means you are the coach and you should make up their workouts imo
If there are just average normal people in there whilst the team is there they should be able to do what they wish.
Filling up water/taking a piss is not a big deal IMO
-
I dont care if people do not re rack their weights.
-
No Grunting or Heavy Breathing Allowed. It may distract others from their workouts.

Yes, it's just for team use. But like I said, the thread starter could take some of what I wrote on that list and modify it if he chooses.
Doug Steel should love this ;D

By all means your rules then. If it is solely for the team they choose to be there so your gym your rules.

I would go ape shit if someone interrupted my workout sessions to corona to ask a question like that. I would probably start kicking them in the face to every thump of the bass.

I wondered why I don't get bothered while working out. ipod shuffle + bald head + big dude = fuck off. Now I get it, thanks.
