It would be really excellent to have a little army of robots to clean the gym. We don’t. You can find spray bottles filled with cleaning solution and clean rags in one of the blue cubbies. Please wipe down anything you sweat all over including the benches, wall balls, ab mats, lacrosse balls and situp mats so that the person who uses those things right after you is not quite so intimate with you. Don’t worry about the floor. You should see the robots who come in to clean that…they used to work for NASA, but were WAY too cool to be wasted on a space program. No, really, real people clean our floor. If you make a chalk mess (which does not help your pullups) or leave your half empty water bottle or your used tape (GROSS!!) real people clean it up for you. MOST IMPORTANTLY!!! If you rip your hands and bleed on the pull up bars or the barbells IT NEEDS TO BE CLEANED ASAP. Use the spray bottles or ask for help. Your fellow crossfitters shower you with their gratitude, but not their ickiness!




I didn’t know my fellow crossfitters showered at all. Are we supposed to?
We didn’t shower when we were nomads, so I say no!
I didn’t know that my sexy musk was so over whelming that I needed to wipe down my equipment.
As those who’ve worked near me during WODs I leak a great deal, and so it is only proper for me to make like a scrubbing bubble what with the squirt bottle and wiper rag. Besides, cleanliness is next to godliness, or so claimed Mr. Francis Bacon (Cf. http://www.phrases.org.uk/bulletin_board/5/messages/1209.html).
