It's official, I'm a twink. Just joined Planet Fitness

tl;dr dear diary

Used to go to what was basically a glorified hotel gym that was 24 hours
Only went there because I could squat and dead there
Gym changes opening hours to 6:00am on weekdays and 8:00am on weekends
Showed up at 6:00 to lift, employee didn't show up until 6:45 to open the gym
A few days later I get talked to by the manager for "deadlifting too loud" even though it was only me and 1 other dude in the gym at the time and I was lowering them at a reasonable pace
Cancelled my membership on the spot
Signed up for PF
Now I have to figure out how to get in a legit leg workout

Do you have a Crunch Fitness nearby? They also have a $10 ($9.95 or whatever) membership options, and those are way better equipped than Planet Fitness.

Nothing wrong with PF. Show up, do the work, leave.

Place is immaculate. Lots of old people, however, because of the China Plague, it's 20 % full

Some lady asked me today why I don't wear a mask, I politely answered, that I am catching my breath between sets.

Dumbbells up to 75 lb., Have TRX pulley, light kettlebells, battling ropes and pull-up bars.

You won't get to a 4 wheel squat on each side in there but you can achieve looking good naked for the power bears to sodomize you.

meh, its a clean and empty gym. You aren't going to find some equipment you would at other gyms, but it can get the job done if you need it.

Yeah sadly the DB's only go up to 60's at this location. But honestly everything else is better than expected.

Meh, I was using a WAY more expensive city gym for over a decade. 5 times more $$ but had better equipment and WAY hotter females. Finally realized that the PF next to my work does the job without the heavier commute. Not as nice, sure. But they check most of the boxes so just roll with it.

The PF I went to wasn't bad and the chick behind the desk was an HBB and sweet as can be but she left and it's gone to hell.

PF isn't bad honestly.

If you actually concentrate on squeezing the muscle and doing volume, you could build some muscle.
