you cant do a set in front of a dumbbell rack to the point where you interfere with others grabbing or putting away dumbbells. So ****ing annoying when i need to put away dumbbells and someone grabs the dumbbells and does a set inches away from the rack.

No deadlifting. Too much liability. It's a dangerous, useless vanity lift.

Honestly, if people used a towel / wiped down and re-racked weights you're already ahead of the curve.

A no screen/media type gym, without phones or TV screens I would really enjoy. Something that forced communication and community.

Just trying to keep costs down.
99% of male lifters these are really the only weights you need. Cheat curls, flat bench when noob, and incle and OHP when gud.

Throw your phones phones on the gym floor.
Shirts and shorts must be worn sometimes
Muscle tees? Just go naked honestly, you'd save money this way
Shoes must be worn, unless you liek to squat barefoot
People doing an exercise with the wrong form must be corrected; honestly nvrmind they ego lifting and deserve the herniated disc
People doing half reps will be kicked in the nuts <-- keeping this this is actually gud rule
Peope doing Pin presses for anything besides sticking point training for OHP or strict curl are give n a gtfo from the biggest guy in gym
Bags allowed on the gym floor
Eat the chalk, liquid chalk users will be shamed game of thrones style
All members must swipe in and out of the gym to track progress. <-- keeping this this is actually gud rule
People taking longer than 3 minutes in-between sets can be removed from the equipment... unless finding a true 1RM, but they need to make an appointment for that
All members must accept a spot request, 'specially if it's a heterosexual male wanting to spot a female 'coz there's defo nothing bad goona happen there.
Nothing but non-natty members in the gym

Thank you for coming to my ted talk

3 strike rule - if you don't rerack your weights 3 times, you will permanently lose your membership. You will receive a warning after the first 2 times, and if you do it a third time you're out

Anytime Fitness has the policy of paying $1 per KG of weight that's not being re-racked.

No cell phones. That pretty much kills off 30% of customers though who can’t do a 60 min workout without being on social media
I get a tax deduction just by hanging out here

More reps, no texts

Rule 1) No lifting


We'd also have a surplus of fresh hot pizza (always), netflix and chill rooms, games like pool and whatnot, board games, lingerie store for sloots to try on and buy stuff (revenue stream), treadmills and stairmasters in front so sloots can sloot and you can walk at 2mph on the treadmill and watch, speed dating for the single brahs and brahettes interested every thursday night (so if u hit it off u can make plans for friday, optimal getting layed time with a new pickup u just met, gotchu boys), beer on tap (XX amount of beers allowance per month with membership fee, no carryover, excess will be billed to your payment method on file)

umm yeah i can keep going but that'd put us off to a good start
