    I wipe them before I use them for the ones who walked away and didn't wipe them and also I wipe them when I am done.

    Absolutely. And can I just add that wiping it down with the sweat-drenched towel that you've been using to mop your forehead DOES NOT COUNT. No sirree. Walk that extra thirty steps (you are at a gym, after all) and get some clean paper towel and some of that nice anti-bacterial spray. It's not hard at all.

    I'm also a before and after wiper. In addition, I give the death glare to the ones who don't wipe down after. Sometimes it works, sometimes they just don't care.

    Oh, and if you're going to wipe down before, why should I do it after?

    Yeah... why is it that everyone is totally hyper about wiping down the cardio equipment, but no one bothers with the weight machines?? Weird.

    Bleh I hate when people do that. If looks could kill there wouldn't be any more of those at my gym.

    Ok...so if you are going to wipe it down anyways....Why complain if someone doesnt...

    It's not like you had to do extra work...you were already going to wipe it down

    I LIKE YOU!.. this germ thing is a hoot... we have sanitizer dispensers all over the school now. I took a group of kids to a show last week and one kid used the restroom and would not button his fly until he'd sanitized. I said, "Josh-your pants are open.." it was funny-walking to the sinks, washing.. walking to the paper towels.. with your pants open.. TOO FAR

    I wipe down when my sweat leaves an impression on it, especially the butt piece of the weight machines, but I am not going to sit there and clean the entire machine of any presence of me. I wash my hands when i leave the gym and take a shower :)

    It's not the thought of germs that gets me, not at all--I'm a child of the Eighties and grew up grubbing around in a mud pile--but it's just plain ICKY to be sitting in someone else's sweat. My own is bothersome enough, but someone else's? Blech.

    This what I do...I always wipe down equipment after use and re-rack my weight...
    HOWEVER
    There are times when I am finishing my last set...and before I can start re-racking weight...someone is asking to jump on it...and begin their workout before I can even walk away....


    I also bring an extra shirt that I lay on the equipment I sit on or lay on...so it's not like I am actually sweating on the equipment...

    Really..unless you bring a bucket of HOT azz water with Clorox...nothing you can do to get someone elses dead skin off you or what have you...

    Might as well get a home gym....
