So far I have -

* Padlock for locker
* Water bottle
* Change of clothes
* Headphones

Do hand bands help? Like to keep the sweat out of your eyes

What about unspoken gym rules like asking for help or using a machine?

A notebook and pen would come in handy for writing down a program or tracking your progress.

A spine that works so you don't chicken out in front of other people.
The first few months will be intimidating, but push on.
Learn to value [proper form + adequate nutrition + sleep] and you will like where it takes you.

Don't be another New Year's ditcher....

The funny thing about telling others to take the high road is how often it's hypocritical advice.

Nothing wrong with asking for help. Definitely ask for a spotter if you feel unsure about bench press or squats. Dont worry about what other people think. Just take it one day at a time.

Proper form is more important than how much weight you can lift. Dont give up. Lifting is half the battle. Have a healthy diet and ditch the junk/greasy food.

Cardio kills gains is a meme. Just dont overdo the running such as 5 miles a day. Failing a lift is okay as long as you dont hurt yourself. Most importantly, have fun.

A small towel, both for your own hands when they get sweaty and for the equipment you are using.

You can download nice apps to track what weight you are on for all the different things, but in all honesty I just use a notepad file on my phone.

Didn't think of a smaller towel for that. Good suggestion

If you're going to shower there, get a pair of those pool flip flops. You don't want to walk around a locker room in your bare feet.

If you have iOS get GymGoal. Its a paid app (used to be free) but Ive been using it for 7 years, history goes all the way back to June 2012. So its well worth it.

Small towel.

If your gym doesn't provide it, antiseptic wipes.
