you wanna avoid anything that looks like your pic

2-3 Barbell Benches, prefereably with at least one inclined barbell bench.
At least 2 squat racks
Enough space for deadlifts, or if you are lucky, a specific platform for DLs.
Extra points if you can also find one with a power rack
Blake Martin
Free barbells, more than one squat rack, not crowded
Daniel Williams
This is the only one close to me. I don't think it looks too bad.
Owen Ross
it's about as bad as it gets hombre
you need a rack and barbells
and smith machine is not a rack
Daniel Allen
They list a squat rack on their website but I don't see it anywhere
Leo Cook
they're probs tricking you into thinking they have a rack but they mean the smith machine
Joshua Ward
As long as they have 1 squat rack and AT LEAST 1 Barbell bench, then i guess it's okay.
Im currently going to a gym with just 1 barbell bench and 1 squat rack
Josiah Gonzalez
i've seen more usable machines in a home gym. hope they don't charge more than $20 for this shit.

NA fags have it so good.
Britbong here and every gym costs at least £20/month with such shitty equipment.
Grayson Butler
Good quality barbells
Ayden Bailey
cant get anything good for under 10 bucks
Landon White
Atleast 2-3 groups of thots, 2-3 old guys, 1 to 1/2 powerlifter and a gym twink.
Gabriel Smith
my basic fit only has 1 squat rack 1 bench 1 incline 1 cable crossover and 1 spot where you can do deadlifts

Ethan Davis
Ask to see the gym stallion then inspect his coat and teeth to make sure he's in good condition
Also make sure they haven't figged him to make him more peppy, some dishonest gym owners will do that
Brody Morgan
Thx guise for reminding me how much I love my gym. 3 Hammer Strength Racks with DL platforms in front, 2 dedicated dl platforms, 5 racks at a functional tower + 4 decline/incline/flat fixed benches.
Nolan Taylor
desu i just like basic fit because there's so many fucking machines no one ever sees you and you can do meme lifts like zercher split squats in peace
Nicholas Richardson
This, ideally.
Levi Moore
I look for a low population of gym clowns. Last time I made the mistake of going to a gym with sevreal groups, they caught me midset at the bench and replaced my weights with helium balloons. Fucking took 2 hours to get down from the ceiling.
Jaxon Perry
-You should make sure the gym isn't too crowded during the times you wanna workout
-A cross fit section is a plus ( it's often quiet and you can squat there when all the power cage are taken)
Caleb Martinez
Min. 2 bench presses
Min. 2 flat benches
Min. 4 incline benches
Min. 4 squat racks
3-4 cable rigs is nice
Not filled with smelly old people
Hotties everywhere
I also like having a preacher bench but it’s not a dealbreaker
Brayden Parker
That looks fucking terrible. I know you're going for the whole "vintage" look, but it doesn't look vintage at all and only looks legit trash.
Easton Moore
No gym in my area...except planet fitness
Jose Williams
The one with the most sensitive Lunk Alarm. You'll learn discipline that way.
Sebastian Gonzalez
that's not vintage look at all, that's just a powerlifting gym that cares about training and people who care about training don't care about stucco and aesthetic lights
