| Refined code of conduct required at gym and pool
For others it could be the older man sitting in the sauna without a towel under his bottom. During winter, many people flock to pools, saunas, gyms and fitness studios and wellness services are gaining popularity. But not everyone knows how to behave in these facilities. Morals and manners are one thing; other rules are critical for hygiene. One rule of thumb that should be followed by people using the sauna is that they should remove studs and other pierced jewellery, if for no other reason than out of self interest because the metal heats up. And a towels should be placed "under the entire body" in the sauna, according to Germany's sauna association in Bielefeld. Also, before entering the dip tank, sweat should be rinsed off, and it's best not to hold a broad discussion about fungus between the toes with other people in the sauna.
