No. My little brother used to be a machine wiper-downer (the sophisticated term for it) in high school. It's competing as sort of a high end gym so that probably affects it. I've worked out at other gyms and didn't wipe machines down but I was probably supposed to. Oops.
When I used to be a member of snap, years ago. I would wipe it down before and after use, but I get kind of weird about germs in places like that haha. So I probably over did it.

I ask because I wipe mine down.
My gym has those wipes you're supposed to use when you're done. But I've noticed that about 90% of the time people don't wipe their machine down. And it bothers me.

I do, there are towel dispensers and cleaner so I just do it after I'm done. Although, if I use a matt, I don't wipe that down, is that wrong? I only use it to do planking.

My personal trainer used to hand me a wipe after using a mat so I would. But if I was just using it on my own I didn't. Same with things like free weights, I never wiped those down either. Exactly why I wash my hands really well afterwards! I never see anyone wiping those down!
Usually I do. I always do it after spin class because it would be nasty not to, but if I just walk on the treadmill and don't really sweat, I don't always do it. Most other people seem to wipe stuff down too.
