When they are, they:
>have no clue what to do, despite there being PTs and training programs available
>hop from one machine to another with no rhyme or reason
>have a particular tendency to waste time on the lat pull down, chest fly and leg extension machines for some reason
>are an eyesore
>are especially likely to get naked in the locker room for some reason, compounding the previous point
>never make any progress and vanish after a few months
>but still worsen the experience for everyone else in the meantime
At the very least, a minimum fitness test should be required before becoming a member. If someone can’t reach at least an army boot camp level of pull-ups and cardio, it’s absolutely moronic to allow them into a training space.

Nah you're being a daft c**t.
moron
I know this is a bait thread but I like the idea of a fitness test before being allowed to join a gym
I’m being 100% unironic. The only people I’ve ever seen making progress in a gym were twinks and young girls.
Anyone fat or close to retirement age is just there to waste time.
There's an old lady at my gym that looks to be in her late 60's that's pretty jacked
>I like the idea of a fitness test before being allowed to join a gym
Barely 5 days into 2024 and we already have a candidate for dumbest poster of the year.
It's like joining a guild in an rpg. You need certain stats before you can enter
This might blow your mind, but you can actually do shit like jogging, sprinting, pull-ups, push-ups and the like without going to a gym.
>sprinting
>push-ups
>pull-ups
Yeah those literal 80 year old men doing mobility exercises with their physiotherapists in the gym should just go outside and do a Murph circuit in the snow in the dead of winter at -38 degrees Celsius
Might be fricking crazy to you but a business owner would rather have a client who doesn't use the equipment for the same amount of money. Insane I know.
>~~*business owners*~~ don’t give a shit about quality
No, it doesn’t actually surprise me at all.

You are, in essence, moronic. Maybe gyms should test IQ instead.
You should be forced to max out on machines before moving to free weights.
Public gyms are exclusively for the old and fat. Anybody who us serious about lifting owns their own gym equipment.
Gym owner here, I’ll accept money from anyone
this b***h is pretty hot for someone with a kid
Nearly every woman I know who managed to avoid the wall had kids at a young age. Really makes you think.
Gyms like planet fitness should require nothing, when I want to upgrade to other gyms with free weights I need to demonstrate an acceptable knowledge of programming. I don’t care about DYELs that follow an actual program and are doing non-meme exercises, I do care when some moron is doing meme exercises and being a waste of space.
A poor effort is better than no effort, your arguement is moronic and cherry-picked. Plenty of old and fat people have made progress in the gym, just because you haven't witnessed it with you own eyes means nothing. This homie got gains impermanence
Unironically this. If you're bench or machine pressing and you can't even do 25 pushups in a row, you're a moron.
If you're doing more than 20 push ups in a row, you're a moron who doesn't even know push up progressions.
>If you're doing more than 20 push ups in a row, you're a moron who doesn't even know push up progressions.
Post body
Shut up homosexual
There should be a minimum height requirement (at least 6'2 for all men). They're the only ones with suitable genetic material, so why waste resources on human filth? It's not like the others will amount to anything anyways.
Maybe join a real gym and stay out of those planet fitness, anytime fitness gyms…
Make your own gym then homosexual.
What if it's a elderly bodybuilder?
I know a guy that bench press 200kg in his 60s
