If it's a keyfob gym just say you lost your card. Although now some of them are fining whoever let's people in without keyfobs
You can always go to a new gym and say, im interested in membership can I try out the gym. If you're nice some people will let you try out the gym for the day. Then just go to another gym. Eventually you'll run out of gyms though
Next is to workout at Walmart/dicks using the equipment without buying it. I'm sure you can get away with it for about 30minutes before an employee gets called on you
Lastly is to go to home depot and make your own equipment for cheap. Cement weights cost fractions of real weights. You can either buy molds or use those 10 gallon barrels
I recommend the last one. As a broke teen, I used wet sand and small rocks in 2L fanta bottles to use as weights. Resistance bands are cheap these days. Cement molds aren't that hard to make
my gym is inside of a larger leisure centre
there are turnstiles at reception you're meant to scan your card to go through, but right next to them is a wide door for people with wheelchairs/prams to go through, and 90% of the time they just leave that open for some reason. beyond that there's no other barrier, the gym door has no lock. I walk through the open door every day and no one says anything. so apart from the 10% of the time they actually shut it, anybody could just walk through for a free gym session.
Free outdoor gyms in some cities
Work out in the weights section of Walmart
Have friends with home gyms and ask them to use it
Look for free gym gear through acquaintances and craigslist
Supplement with bodyweight at home
In all honesty though you'd be infinitely better off buying a pair of cheap adjustable dumbbells from walmart
I literally walked into my local planet fitness and forgot to scan in. Try that, if they catch you just say you forgot your phone and you are going to get it, and dip.
Buy an Amazon or FedEx uniform. Walk in with a box with your gym clothes in it. Walk into the locker room and change. Free gym. They'll let you in anywhere wearing delivery unis.
Since this is cost cutting thread I thought I'd add this here.
Sams Club right now is selling their 'holiday,' flavored proteins and collagen powders for pennies just to get rid of it before the 'new year resolutionists,' get bored.
1.5lbs for 10$. So less than 70$ for 10lbs of protein. The only 'problem,' is that it's pea protein stuff. Although with how bad the prices are right now I bit the bullet and bought 10lbs already.
They are also selling their collagen holiday flavor for 3$ but it's like 700g.
Might want to check Wal Mart and other places that sell the holiday shit for deep discounts. I tried the 'peppermint mocha,' collagen and the flavor isn't bad. You get an instant hit of peppermint but immediately taste the 'mocha,' which just made me think of coffee. No caffeine in it though.
If you have a friend, just have them scan in and say hi to the gym employee at the front desk. This momentary, mundane interaction will both distract them long enough for you to slip by and fail to stimulate their minds enough that they'll be alert enough to notice you walk past. Be as casual as possible, of course. They won't even register your existence if done right.
I do this with my brother every single time we go to the gym. He has a membership, he just doesn't feel like scanning in.
Find a commercial gym with depressed looking employees. The ones that don't even bother smiling at customers. They are both broken, but have also realized they can get away with not doing their jobs. They will notice you, but they will not stop you or care.
I travel for work (consulting) and can't be bothered to pay 20 dollars for a day pass 5 days a week. What I usually do is call someone and be talking on the phone as I walk in, nobody will bother someone on the phone. The other thing that I do if the doors are locked on a 24 hour gym is wait in the parking lot for someone to go in and then tailgate them in. This is pretty easy to do but you need to not be a creep about it. Park up close and wait for a decently big group.
Have a membership for a couple months and befriend the staff. After a couple months, they don't care if you scan your card or not since they know and like you. They just assume you're a member and are happy to see you when you walk in.
or, Go during busy hours and you can easily just walk by the front desk and they won't notice. Even if they do notice, they won't do anything. This is how I sneak my friends in.
If you can't do that then just learn calisthenics and workout at home.
This. Charismamax.
I speak to the workers often that they have even let my gf work out for free twice. When I mentioned I was gonna move, a worker offered to deviate from the rules and refund me for the remaining months since I had paid for the whole year, normally not refundable since you get a better, binded price.
Also gave me and my gf a bag of goodies when they had a promotion. My gf isn't even a member and she's only been there twice with me.
What color are you?
Spaniard white
If I was brown I would already know the answer.
Find a place with magnetic swipe badges and put a skimmer in there. Then you can print up your own card with someone elses info

a well thought out and thoughtfully ordered reply
>this poster is probably not fit at all go back to /adv/
>Eventually you'll run out of gyms though
at that point you just break out your box of disguises and go to every gym again.

Easton Leisure Centre?
no, it's a different Everyone Active one though
Fair enough. I've been encouraging my dad to use my gym card so he can do exercise.
Just take calisthenics pill and become one of those shredded hobos that work out at playgrounds

Why would the gym be getting an Amazon delivery?
So Stinky Preet can get brand new pants delivered directly to the locker room, of course

If youelr gym has one of those qr codes that you can scan and validate your pass, just walk up to it and fake taking a picture and walk inside
Unironically get a high-vis vest and a clipboard and just walk in like you're supposed to be there
