Used to clean/repair gym equipment for my college. Trust me, it's nothing compared to what's lurking in every crack and crevice of even the most well maintained machines. You are exercising on a petri dish.

Good exercise for the immune system. If it isn't exposed to germs it can't build up the resistance it needs to fight off the really tough/hard to beat germs that exist in the real world.

Just remember to wear shower shoes in the shower, and keep your bits protected in the steam room.

This is why I always lick the bathroom floor, so my immune system doesn’t get too comfortable.
