There is a first for everything at some point in our lives, even a first time going to the gym. So whether or not you are an avid outdoor exerciser or new to exercising altogether, here are a few tips to making your first trip to the gym a pleasant one.

Check out your gym's cell phone policy before having your daily phone convo with your sister on the elliptical.
*Bonus Tip: Wipe your sweat off anything that acquires it, it's just common courtesy.
