Story Highlights

Crowded gyms are a prime breeding ground for germs, viruses, fungi

Abrasions, blisters from vigorous exercise can create openings for infection

Sweating "superhydrates the skin," making blisters more likely

Always wipe down gym equipment before use

Yep, and wash your hands and use the disinfectant offered by the gyms and wipe the equipment down after you're done.

Germs, definitely germs! This should go on the "That guy we all hate at the gym" post, but the nastiest thing...when someone uses the restroom, doesn't wash their hands, and then proceeds to put on their lifting gloves. Ummmm....EWE!

Nothing New as I have said before I never use the gym as its full of Dirty Stinky People most of the Time!
