Jesus Christ, I finally entered the fitness room and it was all worth the hassle, but what the fuck? Has anyone else experienced something similar? With so many constraints? 2 hour training course, 2 receptionists, Having to leave my ID... HAVING TO BOOK THE FITNESS ROOM...

Do you even know chinks? If there wasn't that many precautions the fitness room would quickly become a murder room.

dont know i dont live in a third world country

I have to be honest I enjoyed my work out a lot because there weren't many people there.

that's better than my Uni's gym
>have to pay for a course to use it at all
>course is 4-6 grand
>it's an entire semester of classes you have to attend or else have a fucked up GPA
>the gym is the size of an average garage
>one squat rack, not even a good one, anything more than two plate and the fucker scoots back each time you rerack if not gentle
>few machines, DBs end at 90, three fucking bars, and only one treadmill
>gym is always packed
>which makes me wonder
>if they have at least 100~ people all paying 4-6 grand a semester to use this shithole, why is it not decked out in nice ass stuff?

college/university is a meme

If the people had access to guns, they would start a revolution. Also I bet they all eat tofu.

are you confusing China with Hong Kong? I mean I Have been here for a couple of weeks and nothing really reminds me of third world

Opposite for me
>Free to use for any student
>Fucking huge
>Has literally everything as far as equipment goes
>8 or so full sized basketball courts
>Full sized track inside
>Ping pong tables
>Big ass dance rooms for zumba and other fitness classes
