Earlier ITT I came to the conclusion that I’d just have separate gym membership and yoga membership and pay only $120 a month.

Now from the later replies, I realized it’s worth an Equinox membership for the next 3 years of my life as I look for a wife. Sure hot girls are at my LA Fitness but they’re not wife material.

Plus I am always afraid of touching things in 24 Hour Fitness and LAFitness.


When I had 24 Hour Fitness:

- Gay men constantly hitting on me because I have a baby face and had an amazing body back then. They thought I was 18-22 years old but I was actually early 30’s.

- One of the workers said they would find used condoms in the jacuzzi. Srs.

- One guy asked me for help starting a routine because he said I had it together. I didn’t mind helping. Turned out he was a gay guy trying to get closer to me. He offered to buy me things, but I told him I was super straight. I didn’t have to worry about him for long. He was stabbed 20 times and strangled to death by a jealous lover, who also went to the gym. My girlfriend at the time screamed at me because I could have been caught up in all that.

-I became friends with a crew after asking for a spot and they adopted me in their crew. But it soon dissolved. One guy went to jail for violating his parole. Another guy was a 50 year old ex-bodybuilder selling gear at the gym but moved after divorce. Another was a high school kid who moved for college.

- Once I lost my crew, another crew started talking **** and things were escalating every time I saw them. But I was alone now and they always showed up together. What used to be friendly faces at the gym became an i unenjoyable time.

- A couple times my sleep was messed up and I went to workout at 2 am. A 45 year old Asian dude created a pillow with a few gym provided towels and was sleeping on the floor right below the pull up bar. I saw him sleeping there several different days through my time being a member. Turns out the gym is $40/month cheap rent and provides bathrooms, lockers and shower lol.

- Another time I went to the dance studio at late hours to do jump rope. I finished and turned around to leave. There’s a woman sleeping in the open closet area on top of all the stored yoga mats. I had no idea or else I probably would have skipped my jump roping so not to wake her.




I ended up moving to a new apartment and switched to LA Fitness.

- Broken equipment that never gets fixed.

- Squat rack broken so everyone waiting in line to use one rack and cage. Of course the cage is used by the guy who does 8 sets with 10 minute breaks while he smugly sits on the phone. Nobody works in with each other because it’s Covid.

- During winter, a pipe broke and flooded the basement locker rooms. They closed the gym down for 3 months. Then they’d delay the opening for additional one month as the time would approach. Gym was closed for a total of 9 months. Turns out they were negotiating with insurance the whole time. Something like that would never take more than 2 months at Equinox.

- Gay dude quickly takes a seat behind me when I get on platform to do stiff leg deadlifts. It was like he was breaking out the popcorn. I Bert stare through the mirror until he embarrassingly leaves. Dude didn’t even try to lift at that machine. Same thing happened to my girlfriend doing hip thrusts - some dude sat across her and broke the popcorn out. She got up in disgust and switched stations.

- I never dare go into the locker room out of fear of gay men.

- There are hot girls but they’re not classy, not big earners or highly educated.




Thanks for reading my deer diary, but that’s a reason why to pay for Equinox for the next 3 years until I find a wife. Gym and yoga is the only way to meet women since you can’t meet them at work anymore.

My gym has weight room, sauna, steamroom, hot tub, pool & showers, cycling classes, yoga classes, body pump classes, basketball court, heavy bag, etc for $36/month

When I lived in NYC I was a member of them AND Blink
(a $20 a month no frills gym). I did most of my workouts at Blink but would go to Equinox when I wanted something nice/it was convenient.

Literally don't see the point of a gym that fancy. Plus I prefer old school weights and mom and pop gyms. (Ded fkn Srs)

saunas blow my mind

theres really no true significant or noticeable benefit to them

you are willingly putting yourself in an uncomfortable temperature where its extremely humid, people in Florida and the Gulf literally ****ing hate that life and have to deal with it everyday and people pay to do this?

regularly going to a sauna will literally add 5 healthy years to your lifetime
