Being a dick at the gym doesn't make you any stronger, more dedicated, or more hardcore. I promise, being a pleasant human being will not sap your gains 🙄. @SELFmagazine https://t.co/80yLHX6PFf

Gyms in some locations are starting to reopen, and others will follow soon. But there's a lot to take into account to do so safely. Thanks @AmeshAA, @chad_petit, and Dr. Waleed Javaid of @IcahnMountSinai for breaking it all down for @SELFmagazine.

Killer single-leg work and pre-exhaust supersets were some of the key takeaways for me and my sad tiny pile of light dumbbells. Plus some other awesome tips from @tonygentilcore1, @danegerousfit, and @SivanFagan for @SELFmagazine. https://t.co/Dh9iw0A7KU

Shouldn't have to say this, but...those cleaning supplies you see at gyms? They're not just for cardio machines. In 52 minutes, I saw just ONE person wipe something down in the free weights area yesterday(much higher with treadmills.) Wipe down your equipment!!!

The answer to the question I couldn't help asking after I watched a guy hack all over the cable machine earlier this week. Thanks @AmeshAA for the insight, and happy to hear gyms across the country are thinking about it, too. https://t.co/nkMLOn6CU4

Yep, you can get a full-body workout in even if you only have 20 minutes—without skimping on the warmup. Try this routine Noam Tamir of @TSFitnessnyc created for us @SELFmagazine. https://t.co/YwqpzwZWYy

You get a ton of butt, hamstring, and core benefits with the single-leg deadlift—if you can do it without keeling over. Thank you @tonygentilcore1 and @danegerousfit for helping fix mine (and keep me upright) for @SELFmagazine. https://t.co/TbOfWpbbud
