Ive been living in South Korea for the last year and something I love about here is that there are cardio and calisthenic machines everywhere. Elderly people here are super fit because they use them all the time. Ive gotten a decent workout with them too.
Why is this type of equipment not available in every park and playground in the US to encourage more causal exercise.

Money and lawsuits.
Oh no, Tyrone got hurt putting his dick in a moving part, the city of povertyville now owes the Jackson's $200M
But couldn't that argument also be used with playground equipment. Like it says use at ur own risk on these also says the same shit on swing sets
Those parks are worthless. Anyone ever tried those? Just look at the sideways swing thing.
Likena sad its mostly elderly using the park and just moving around more is good for older people. Theres others where you you pull up your whole body weight, petal elipicals, ive even seen some with bench press and weights there.
weve got em here too. in eastern uro shithole. as said. most of these exercises are just fricking stupid useless shit, esp the "leg" ones. i guess its still better for ultra boomers than sitting in front of tv
south europe anon here, the exercises are utterly useless but the machines get destroyed by gypsies anyways kek. The company that makes them must be scamming the local authority domain and we pay for it with taxes. Meanwhile in my town there isn't a single place where there is a pullup bar together with parallel bars. You must cross the entire city if you want to do pullups and dips together.
it seems like this type of equipment is available around the world.. who created this shit? it's all the same stuff. seems like it was created by designers that dont actually exercise but have an abstract idea of it
america is a shit hole, duh. they're all over the place in aus and eu.
what's fitness culture like in korea? i know they love plastic surgery
All the men get drafted into military i assume some go into gym after draft
There are gyms here. Lots people stay fit by walking. I go to my apartments gym so I don't know how regular gyms are like. The elder generation stays fit by walking and using the park workout machines. I noticed a lot of girls here stay slim for a bit but get chubby during the winter months. They are on constant binge and restrict cycle.
Have you seen any arnold ronnie tier bodybuilders over there?
theres equipment like this around my area but no basic pullup bar which sucks
The US is full of fat homosexuals and gigachads, normal people don’t exist
How many blacks in Korea? There’s your answer. Jaquayviohn will pull it apart for scrap
I've lived in two countries (chile and france) and never paid for a gym. use public infrastructure to do calisthenics all the time and I'm decently ripped.
I've also traveled a lot through the world and in most countries it seems to be common. I can imagine them not existing in the us, tho. there seems to be more of a drive to the gym culture there.
it is also very cheap. building a calisthenics park is an almost neglible cost compared to the maintenance of green areas.
Why do people always push for this shit. ‘If only the government did x then everything would be perfect’. I’ve lived there. People are not thin in Asia because of fricking calisthenics parks. Saying those are even 1% responsible is giving it too much credit. Diet culture genetics in that order
Nig nogs would break them.
