Old people should be banned from the gym unless they can actually lift weight.
There's no point in starting to go to the gym at 60, it's over for you.
They can do all their meme shit at home, no need to hog the equipment when I could actually be using it.
It’s good for their bones and joints
Neck it chud
Like I said, they can do that shit at home with some dumbbells.
Why do you need to use the 10 pound dumbbells
>Like I said, they can do that shit at home with some dumbbells.
My brother in Christ, this applies to everyone.
I myself do my workouts at home with dumbbells, and I'm not old.
I understand that you don't like old people hogging equipment but I don't think there's anything more Based than an Older person going to the gym to stay fit and healthy.
For them it's actually about health, longevity and quality of life in their twilight years.
I'd argue, that an old person who's just started working out for the first time should absolutely go to the gym and not do their stuff at home, specifically because they are old, and risk hurting themselves with poor form and just in general would bethe people that need and benefit from advice the most.
Most gyms have a trainer on hand during daytime. These old people, especially if Newbie, greatly benefit from advice and having people around in case something goes wrong.
I have a proposition though, a compromise idea to settle things :
Old people should avoid going to the gym during the peak hours / rush hour and instead go during the times when it's less packed.
That way both sides are happy.
They don't hog machines when others need them and they still get to do supervised fitness when there's less people around.
Does that sound like agood idea to you?
Does it not solve your problem/question?
quality post
Please just stop sharing your opinions already.
Everyone that tries to improve should be in the gym
It's good for old people to lift, it lets them live independent lives and not have to live in some care home.
have a nice day
OP is most likely a socially inept 19 year old who got mad at some boomer lifting his preferred (12 lbs) dumbbells and just stared at the guy with seething rage but was too much of a bitch to ask him when he was done.
>Old people should be banned from the gym unless they can actually lift weight.
Such a statement is discriminatory and baseless. Everyone, regardless of age, should be able to pursue their physical health and fitness goals in an inclusive environment. Age does not determine one's ability to lift weights or engage in physical activity. Banning people based on their age would be a violation of their rights and goes against the principles of equality and non-discrimination.
I hope a feral boomer shanks you for making this retarded thread.
Op is competing for the same weights as pensioners?
Reminder that you can take an oldie who can't get out of a chair unassisted and make them completely self-mobile within six weeks of basic low volume resistance training
Take people who can't walk without a zimmer and have them jogging again
It's practically miraculous and also probably a more effective treatment than most other things a doctor prescribes
Unironically if you want to save lives, don't become a doctor, instead open up a training studio and take on elder clients. You can extend their lives by years and at a much higher standard of living too
>get gym membership for free from insurance
>go at specific time of day to fuck with nerds who go to gym in the morning
Ya I'm thinkin based
My gym has two rooms, one mostly freeweights one mostly machines. The only time I go in the other room is calf raises, and I hate it. All of the old people naturally segregate themselves there to do dumb useless shit at the lowest intensity possible. Without fail some old fuck asks how many sets I have left as soon as I start. I swear it's the same guy every time, but I can't tell since everyone past 70 all looks the same.
There was one reasonably fit old guy at my last gym who did deadlifts and bench. Not high weight of course, but very respectable.
Old people tend to be lonely with a lot of free time and the gym may be one of a few opportunities for them to be in a more social environment. Try to have some compassion and understanding
What do you have against old people?
How miserable do you have to be to make a thread like this?
Even if 90% of old people in your country aren't based, u should still show old people respect in case they are part of the 10% that is based.
>women hogging equipment doing meme exercises
>zoomers hogging equipment doing meme exercises
>old farts hogging equipment doing meme exercises
there’s no escape
OP is a gay that will be beaten to death by his Somali caretakers after his family abandons him in the nursing home.
bump
It was already tough getting society to care for old people
They really fucked up making it where we don't have siblings or cousins or church or anything. Nobody is going to bend over backwards for alien old pieces of crap. Again it was hard enough programming man to care for his own eldery and now that's gone hahahahahaha
What are you talking about cunt? In the US, capatalist central, we spend 80% of our budget between medicare and social security for old people and have MILLIONS of young new men come to the country every year to pay for it. While young americans cant afford starter homes or children unless they have multiple incomes.
Shhh anon don't tell them basic facts, let them continue living in their lolbertarian fantasy land created by a woman's romance novel.
You are one sad gay op, you will one day be their age, that is if aids doesnt kill you first 🙂
>OP dying of aids
One can hope it's soon
There's really no excuse for the eternal gym boomer that goes to the gym for 4 hours to sit naked in the locker room shaking his dick and asshole at kids. The worst part is that they start acting elderly and useless in their fucking 30s now.
>bodybuilder gets old
>banned from the gym
