What do you hate about your gym?

I'm japanese, but also do this.
Learn to superset instead of resting my dude

>only one squat rack, often occupied by PT and his pet braphog
>that loudly breathing guy huffing even at lightest rep
Nothing else to report for now

nothing really as it i a small local gym buuuut
> hooray for overweight out of shape people that want a change.
> they start giving other people advise.....
> the same people buy expensive gymwear
> see them once every two months....

Not enough squat racks.

>what do you hate about your gym?
that my gym is FILLED with gymcels

I hate dumb bitches doing their worthless crossfit shit claiming a row machine and a squat rack. Fucking bitch you're not even using the rack most of the time.

It's filled with stinky pajeets who come in crowds of 20's and don't wear any deodorant or wipe down the nasty curry fluid sweat.

Not putting weights away. My gym is great, it has 8 sawdust tracks, with racks for the weights literally in between each rack. Still people manage to not put weights away. Leaving 4/5 plates on the bar is one (shitty) thing, but most people just stack the weights on the floor. Like, it'd be no more effort for them to actually put the weights in the racks, I just don't get it.

Also, somehow all the clips seem to migrate to the one rack at the other end of the room

I'm so fucking glad I live in white America

>fucking 20 threadmills
>never more than 5 at use at same time

u wot

>only one squat rack
>no designated deadlifting area
>the leg press has been broken for 5 months

>and they clap at the end of every workout.
they clap.
Do Americans clap in the gym? Can any Americans confirm this?

Supersets may save some time, but exhausts you more, which leads to lower lifting volume. Take your time in the gym, Mr Kawasaki.

Only at new PR's. Don't try it in Planet Fitness though they'll sound the lunk alarm then kick you out for a 2nd offense.

>62%

I'm talking about the spots where it's still all white dipshit. Not the nation as a whole.

>lower right
>reps for grandpa Vader

People of color, in other words, nonwhites

80% immigrants

Tbh most of them are good lads and friendly. Just makes me wonder, if it's me and 8 guys from Somali in the weights room getting big while all the other white guys play vidya/watch telly, what's gonna happen?

>alot of immigrants who sit on machines and stall weights and clog the gym
>area with dumbells is very small and there is usually an immigrant gang hanging out
>trend bitches who do memeworkouts, showing off their asses and browse fitness blogs while resting 5 minutes between sets
>staff is arrogant and probably worst customer service I have ever had
Needless to say the gym is cheap as fuck

>always crowded as shit
>a total of 5 20kg barbells in the entire gym
>daily treasure hunt for the pl8ts
>total of 3 cable setups, one is stuck in the lowest setting
And the greatest thing of all..
>ONE fucking squatrack

>women in the gym

those old days where no fucking woman is seen in the gym, i miss those days. maybe the gf of some dude on saturdays, and thats it.

>no squat racks
>no deadlifts
>meme crossfit trainers
>meme lifters that use the machine for 15min doing low weight 30 reps
>woman using the squat rack for 30min with only the bar

i'm still there only cause every other gym around is machines city

eh, meant to say smith machine, there ain't squat racks

Women dont belong to gym. Have you ever seen a female train anything else but legs, abs and ass? Women dont even sweat because they are not actually trying to do their best and gain muscle. They do very light weights and take it easy, if they start to feel a little bad they stop immediately.

We have a powerlifter chick who benches my squat, and I aint squatting baby weight. But she also looks the part and probably has more body hair than all males ITT combined so disregard me pls

tranny

No one puts their shit back properly

nah. but probably pinning god knows what, so boils down to the same yeah

People always talk to me in English in my university gym. (Netherlands) Even though I'm white and look pretty much like any other Dutchman

are these people dutchmen or foreigners? immigrants in my gym dont speak english or the local language

>not enough power benches where you can change rack height by couple cm
>not enough 2.5kg plates

>small
>only 1
>only 2 flat bench and 1 incline
>people taking the bar from DL platform to bench because not enough bars
>freeweights are upstairs(sucks for leg day)
It's a good gym though. Not a normie gym. Most of the people there are regular mostly fit people. Don't see much stupid meme exercising or "curls in the squat rack".

there is this fucking manlet probably just 160cm in height who at least does squats, but with the worst form possible. Not only that, he just fucking walks out of the goddamn rack like he stands 10 meter in front of it and does his stupid notevenclosetoparallel squats, and after that he even puts on MORE weight

Just a few minor gripes.

>No deadlift platform
gotta do it straight off the floor like an animal.

>Only 2 sets of 5 and 10kg plates for some reason but tons of 2.5kg plates

So you often see people using tons of 2.5kg plates if the 5 and 10kg plates are being used, which they probably are.

>old manlet gearhead (50ish) owns a monopoly in our huge commercial gym on supplying gear

Get a new gym mate.

Second should be only 1 squat rack.

You go to the gym with Kylo Ren? Has he force choked some bitch for not racking their weight yet?

Keep watching sports and porn and don't ask questions

I started out in my homegym but right now I don't have the room. I just wanna go back to training peacefully & however I want.
At least the owner is a buff natty who's really knowledgeable about everything and pretty strong for a guy whose primary goal isn't strength. But everyone else, fuck...

>People are deadlifting in the dead lifting area
>Durr can you guys keep it down?? Also put mats under the weights pretty please~

I go to a commercial gym right now but it's pretty decent. Obviously I want to move out to a real gym when I move but the people are nice, there's not a lot of bullshit routines and people clean up. That said, I go at 6 am so it may be different later in the day

>has 25lb and 35lb plates
Throws all organization out the window. Each squat rack has 5 pegs on each side, perfect for 2.5,5,10,25,45. The addition of 35 plates guarantees plates will be on the floor and different plates will be on the same peg. The bench press stations are even worse. They only have 4 pegs on each side.

>tfw french
>tfw my gym has descent equipment
>tfw there are experimented lifters that i can look up too
>tfw there are dyel fuccbois i can feel superior to
>tfw grills are howt
>tfw regulars just shake my hand but but try to have a conversation
The only drawback is that the gym can't open h24 because of our cucked laws on travail de nuit but hopefully pic related will change that

My gym in Scotland is great, only thing is showerea have pathetic pressure.

Someone said earlier about guys walking about naked in locker room, I have yet to visit a gym that doesn't have naked guys, is it a culture thing or what??

roidlets with bigger legs than me squatting my warm up weights for their working sets

I'm pretty happy with my current gym. Pretty expensive (but I ackownledge that I'm spoiled from my Spaniard gym membership in my old little town) but with the student shit I pay reduced fees (I'm not visiting the uni anymore lol), but for the german standards it's not THAT expensive.
>Huge squat rack compound with 10 or 12 Squat racks that can be used for deadlifts, pullupa, bench press... Every rack has it pull up bar above and there's enough bars and pl8.
That is the first time that I see aomethink like that and I think it's the best think ever created. It has even in the middle (all the racks together form a rectangle) a bar circuit to do shit like Ninja Warrior. It's pretty awesome.

I just wanted to comment that, now what I hate:
>There aren't enough benchs in the DB zone.
>Only 2 Ez bars.
That wasn't a problem if there were plenty of other bars, but there's only these premade bars from which you cannot change the weight.
>A good amount of mudslimes who do meme lifts and buying tickets to snap city constantly
Like that guy who is 75kg max and take the 20kg DB to do bicep curls (you can imagine the form lol)
But overall I cannot complain.

>No deadlift platform
>Tons of roiders
>Lots of girls doing meme exercises in the tightest, smalleat clothes distracting me
>Only three squat racks

-only one decline bench
-no shrug machine so i have to do them in a power cage
-some handles/grips for the cable machines have gone missing without explanation
-the clen-huffing, plastic titted "fitness """""model"""""" bimbo that literally never cleans up after herself and leaves equipment lying around everywhere, I want to throttle her to death

My uni gym isn't the greatest...

>Weights are often reracked wrong
>Gym is closed on snow days, which are often
>No deadlifting area
>Single squat rack
>Single powerlifting rack
>Maybe 1/2 as many bars as there should be
>One of them is 35 and skinny anyways
>Less sets of clamps than barbells, and somehow you can never find a pair, only one at a time
>3 CRT TVs, all completely invisible from the free weight area and facing a corner
>Shit music unless it's late night and the employees decide to play uncensored rap/rock
>No 25lb dumbbells
>Usually stinks
>Only natural light is one tiny as fuck window on the ceiling, on the top floor of the building
>Oh yeah it's on the second floor
>And the locker room is on the ground floor, with one 24"x36" mirror
>Half the people in the gym are fats on a treadmill or doing shitty CrossFit, and dyels who bench bar
>Any plate loading machine is always left with weight on
>only iron, no bumper plates in the weight room
>Indoor track has the only bumpers and only women's soccer can use them
>Track only has 35 lb bars anyways

Yeah uni gyms are a pain in the dick

>normies doing 7x31 incline on the smith machine
I somehow kekd super hard at this

>no shrug machine
please be bait

>no DL platforms
>benches taken all the time, had to drag one from the dumbbell area to the squat rack
>cable pull machines in free weights area
>only two power cages but it's not like anyone ever uses them in the early afternoon, annoying when I get off work late and shit's crowded
>have to look at hipster numales doing meme exercises or cardio on the way to free weights area

>DES
>PA
>CITO

où ça?

Some drawfag needs to make a visual rendition of that guy.

>Only one power rack
>Tons of women
>No deadlift platform so you just have to find a spot near the free-weights
>Lots of roiders
>I've only seen two guys do squats with proper depth and one of them is gay
>At 6pm it's possible that you'd have to wait more than an hour to use the power rack if you're autism
I hate it here.

It's less about being naked in the locker room and more specifically about the old dudes who stay naked and hold conversations for half an hour at a time with their wrinkly old balls hanging out.

Fucking lunk alarm pisses me off

>Have you ever seen a female train anything else but legs, abs and ass?
yes

>Gym is all about heavy lifting and supreme meat head culture
2 FUCKING SQUAT RACKS

>non whites shitting the place up while being loud and annoying
>disgusting old men flashing everyone in the locker room

>only one power rack
>only one squat rack that also takes some space from the deadlift platform
>only one small deadlift platform due to the squat rack
>frequented by sand niggers that leave body hair everywhere and piss on the floor next to the toilet
>crossfit plates unless you borrow the 55's from the double-jointing machine
>only straight barbells and two z-bars, no trap bar, ssb, stiff bar, duffalo bar etc.
>gym consists of soccer moms, dyel high school students and a few roiders with the occasional wild card

it's a college gym so there are a lot of weak faggots lifting babyweights. often grunting and yelling just for attention

the women actually are pretty polite and courteous since the gym is seen as more of a masculine thing so they don't want to intrude. which actually makes them the best gymgoers.

Is this real?
Pics?

The gym receptionist is a pig who I banged once when I bumped into her at a bar. She follows me around when I'm trying to work out talking to me it's annoying

>unisex showers
what? how does that work

Nothing really

>never busy in the morning
>no one who's too obnoxious

No, that's retarded and obnoxious.
