Hear what YOU want to Hear


If you are a member of the Whitewater university Fitness Center you know you are not allowed to wear headphones in the strength area but I think these rules need to be changed because there are more benefits then risk because listening to music on your headphones can motivate you, get you in the zone, pace your workout, keep you distracted from the pain or tired feeling, keep your energy high and intense, and lastly you will get done faster and relieve 2 times as much stress. I understand when you can not hear whats around you, you place yourself in a dangerous atmosphere but if the gym was to enforce a new rule that you must have a spotter for your compound lifts (ex- Bench, squat, overhead pressing) at all times. Sign this petition today and we could abolish this no headphone rule and make the Fitness centers more enjoyable for next year. Headphones is a privilege not a right but when most Universities in Wisconsin that have bigger facilities don't have this rule in place I naturally ask myself they must also see more benefit then risk.
