Is title doable? Not that I am gonna do it soon but it came into my mind in case I was short in money and wanted a barbell set for home gym without paying for plates as they are pretty fricking expensive in my country. Assuming there are no cameras or it doesn’t cover the area in the corner can I just put those small 5-10lbs in a bag or under my winter jacket and go off. Has anybody here done it with small plates and potentially all the way to the 25lb or maybe even 35/45 ones?

I've thought about this. The problem is you're always on camera in the gym. Even if you wear a mask or something, they will know it's you from the electronic sign in.
My gym isn’t a known name gym and has a camera at the reception and a camera that does not cover half the working out room especially the corner areas with lots of machines and plates there.
Just walk into a gym that isn't yours and take the plates. Park in outside the lot and drive off. No one will stop you
Steal from a corporate gym you piece of shit, not a fricking lowkey family owned gym or whatever you're talking about.
My fricking god you're a Black person
only from planet fitness
frick em
this is very doable on PF
>pretend you're fat
>use fake fat belly with water weights
>take weights to bathroom
>empty the water, sub with the actual weights
nobody will notice
>op has to steal plates cuz theyre expensive in his country
Average europoor/third worlder kek
Ithey go for an average of 1.5$ per lb, why pay a couple hundred of dollars for them when you can just take them home every. now and then and possibly return them discreetly in the future without anybody noticing
Because it's not your plates you dirty thief. Make some shit with wood and sandbags if you can't afford it. Stop trying to justify stealing gym equipment of all things.
>$1.5 per lb
frick me it was $1 per lb for premium shit before the pandemic.
over 2$/lb where i am. even on second hand websites they're over 1.5$. very gay.
Why do people on craigslist and similar websites try to sell their unused shit for max price? You see the same thing with bikes. Somebody is asking retail price for their used POS.
the actual price they want is lower, they're just leaving room for negotiation. If you msg someone who's had a post up for 30 days without a sale and offer him half the price if you take it today there's a good chance they'll say yes
Gee idk anon. They shouldn't want money for it
bumper plates for oly lifting are $2/lb used in my area, more than that new.
>and possibly return them discreetly in the future
Yeah, right.
You WILL be caught, eventually. People have eyes and ears.
Doable yes, but you'll probably get caught on camera. Plates aren't that expensive to just buy.
I used to go to a key gym and gradually stole all their old York dumbbells to cut up and make blobs. Sold them all and made a shitload.
Black thread
thieves go to the lake of fire
Always have to judge the risk/reward when doing crime. For almost all people dropping a little money and buying them cheaply off FB marketplace would be the better option.
Dude heres an idea
> pinch grip a couple pairs of plates
> farmers carry it to the locker room
> put in your ruck sack
> Adios
>nigmaxxing instead of whitemaxxing and just making more money.

Are you indian?
I've never seen a fit pajeet
That’s because they can’t steal weights to have a homegym
It’s the shitty vegetarian/vegan diet. Same reason they all have potbellies.
You have to be whote to post on here
just go to a planet fitness at 2 AM with a ski mask in a rental car you got from the town over and paid for with a stolen credit card. Leave car in fire lane. Walk in and farmer carry 45s until you have as many as you need. Have weapon in holster to intimidate front desk people. You have 4-6 minutes depending on the county before police get the call
but if you're going to do all this you may as well rob something of value...
>bring back pack or something
>put weights in and walk around with them like you're exercising
>forget to take one out
If they catch you you can just say oops holy shit I didn't see that one somehow I swear.
Just pull your car up and shoot the employees and anyone else who gets in your way. Then load up.
You could also start your own gym then steal from yourself because you will have the keys. But are you willing to report the incident for the insurance payoff?
They will hunt you

>start own gym
>steal from self
LOL im dead. and honestly that sounds like the best option, get that insurance payout, make your home gym with the stolen weights. keep actual gym running for passive income. thats the real win condition right there
Wear a hard hat and a high visibility vest. You don't even need to put it under your jacket.
Only place this is somewhat feasible is a rock gym. They all have plates that no one uses and the front desks are staffed by teenagers who aren't paid enough to care. It's also super common for people to bring large bags in and out with them. Usually no cameras too
Step 1: obtain empty kitty litter bins
Step 2: fill them with scrap metal or rocks
Step 3: ?
Barbell sets are cheap af on craigslist. And imo older barbells/weights feel better. In general free weights age like fine wine.
Just slip the 2.5lbs weights into your pocket. Nobody uses those anyway. Eventually you can stack 60 of them on a 1” barbell.
Made me laugh dude, thanks!
How fricking poor are you that you can’t afford some weights? This shithole is infested with turd worlders.
Black person behaviour. Have integrity.
It’s easy
>pick a gym that isn’t yours
>figure out how they do check ins
>pick a gym that is unstaffed but open like a 24/7 or similar and you can get inside by having someone else open the door
>pretend to sign in
>grab plates and leave
If you can get a gym without cameras that’s great. and you can get the plates almost all the way to the door without setting off alarms if it just looks like you’re doing farmer walks
would the best way to steal weights be from a gym in apartment buildings?
maybe this is isnt in every country, but some buildings have gyms on one of the first few floors. there was one that i went to for about a year and a half just walking in and climbing up some stairs
no electronic sign in, and unless you bring your buddies and clear them out the cops arent going to care even with a video
Don't do that shit man. Save up a few bucks and find good used gear on israelitebook marketplace or something similar.
