Thread: Planet Fitness, what the hell is this no bodybuilders bs

The pussification of my Gym
I am in Hell!

Yeah, Planet Gheyness already ran me out a few years ago. The worst part was that it was a real gym when I signed, but they bought my contract from Powerhouse.

it's not a gym it's a joke. wtf. if they still have the alarm and it jumps someone in the middle of lifting hmmmm, that could fuck up your form, cause injury and a major lawsuit. with the money from the lawsuit you could equip a nice fucking home gym.

about ten bodybuilders should eat whatever produces the worst smelling farts, eat a ton of fiber, take a laxative and have a liquid protest. "well i was trying not to make any noise and i shit... sorry, see you tomorrow"

that sounds like it could have easily been won in court.

Any gym with a healthy dose of geriatric male nudity can't be all bad

I think they want to get some of the customers from Curves. Has there been any man that has sued Curves???

I once counter-sued Lucille Roberts, to get the distance on the restraining order reduced.

what the hell is this no bodybuilders bs? most bodybuilders cycle a day of weight training with a day of cardio. just doing aerobic exercises without any type of strength training is NOT a good fitness plan. i'm a 46 year old woman that incorporates weight bearing exercises into my fitness plan as an essential part of achieving the level of fitness i aspire to. i think it's bullshit that you say you want everyone to feel respected and accepted but you have NO BODYBUILDERS! in your advertising.


Hello Marcia,
Thank you for your feedback. We offer a relaxed, judgment free zone in our gyms. We certainly understand the importance of weight training. We do have a variety of nautilus and free weights in our facilities. We simply ask that you respect others by not grunting or have any obnoxious behavior that would intimidate fellow members. You are welcome to stop by for a quick tour of the facility. There is no need for an appointment. Simply stop off at the front desk and the staff will be happy to assist you. If I can help you with anything else or you have any further questions feel free to contact me!
Regards,

Heather McNab

nope just wrinkly old man penis on display in the locker room i guess and no grunting in disgust when you see it

Luckily my Cardiff gym is owned by an ex-military guy, so im hoping he'll be less inclined to pussy the place out.

That sucks though, seriously. Since when did people get intimidated so fucking easily? Just because bodybuilders would go into a gym and actually push themselves, rather than the hordes of regular people walking slower on the treadmill than they actually walk around the gym...

I dont get that. What do they think thats going to accomplish?

The other day i was walking around where i live, and i came up on some joggers, and overtook them. They were jogging slower than i was walking, and id bet they could walk as fast as me aswell. But their jogging speed was somehow slower!?

Like the exagerated leg movements are what does the job, rather than the propelling yourself along the ground. It was both hilarious and enraging to watch. I just wanted to grab them and ask what the hell they thought they were doing.

Bah.

I swear, gyms are bad enough with these people, let alone if they band bodybuilders aswell. Why do they do this...

Would you PLEASE quit stalking me?!?!?

The bodybuilders and people who are bigger than me are what keep me going, what keeps me motivated, what makes me get that extra rep at the end of the set.

PlanetFitness is just ghey.

viagra at the gym? would give you a severe pain in the abdomen when doing bent over rows. or make people really nervous if you stood behind them when they were.

They are giving it out in standard doses at the nursing homes now...






















They said accidents have decreased since it keeps the old men from rolling out of bed.

No, viagra for the old man working at the gym for his wrinkly old penis! He wouldn't be working out.

Hmmnn... I wouldn't know about this abdominal pain symptoms and viagra. Haven't tried it although I have access to it. I'd probably wouldn't do bent over rows that day either. I think it would be rather funny if I was on Viagra and had a female ask me to spot her when doing squats. I'd spot her from behind not in front! LMAO!!

Heh i heard about this a coupla years back, a friend of mine went into one while traveling and was doing heavy squats. A 'lunkhead' is what they call the alarms, went off and he was quickly ousted and shown the door.

Pretty lame, its hard to find good gyms these days and more often then not they are the secret dungeon esque types hailing back from the glory age of BBing, none of this commericalized mass public appeal bullshit.

He was actually doing squats?
My gym was World's Gym before...you know..the big fuqqin gorrilla...yeah...that place...turned into a Planet Fitness.
let's see if I recall some of the changes:
all DB's over the weight of 60 lbs' were removed as well as most of the free weights/benches.
The power cage and squat racks were removed.
Hmm...some of the rules:
you know about the being quiet thing...WTF???
guys cant' wear tank tops of form fitted shirts (under armour, etc)

There were a few more ridiculous items...but I was too shocked and as I cancelled my membership (along w/ 1200 other members) to remember.
Too bad too...gym was in a great location, not busy...had a great atmosphere of people who actually wanted to DO something in the gym...as opposed to THIS gay place where I was told and I quote:
"We do not cater to body builders or power lifters anymore"

There is a Planet Fitness opening up soon about 10 minutes away from me.

I plan on working there.

I, however, never plan on working out in such a shitty gym!

I'm having a hard time following/understanding this. I guess I get it. So you're gym is located in a Mc'Donald's playground?!?!

BTW/ are you using an iphone bc/ there are a lot of missing letters and mispelled words.
