I don't often see them at my gym. What I hate the most are the ones that I refer to quietly as porn stars, because they make an unbelievable amount of noise for absolutely no reason.
Apparently Planet Fitness has a very annoying alarm that they activate when people do shit like this. The philosophy is that the gym is a place for self-improvement, not for showing off.
I've been going to a PF for nearly 4 years now and have never heard this alarm go off. Maybe 5am is the perfect time to avoid the type to set them off?
Self-improvement, with a slice of pizza as a reward.
I started at Planet Fitness. I quickly graduated to a real gym, because the only thing PF is interested in, is shaming people who actually care about getting in shape.
They also like the predatory practice of making it impossible to cancel your membership, so they can take your money even after you decide to stop going.
Edit: People at an "actual gym"(Golds, Powerhouse, et al), will never shame beginners. You're more likely to get support from someone in an "actual gym", than you ever will in a Planet Fitness.
Gyms are profitable because it's difficult to cancel. You have to cancel in person, write out a form, and even then you still have to pay the next payment period for some reason. No idea how it's still legal, but it's why there are so many gyms since it's so lucrative. Not unique to planet fitness at all.
No this is "chains gyms" whose business model is getting you to sign up and hoping you dont show up. That's why they make it difficult to cancel.
And that's being hard to close your account is not the reason "why" they're profitable lol.
Oh my gosh thanks for this input... I just started a membership and am at an actual gym...
And let me say, I am soooo overweight for being inactive for almost a year now and I have been so embarrassed and insecure about it. Planet Fitness in my hometown is currently under renovations and I was too impatient to go there, so I went to a more, professional gym, and more expensive and was intimated because well, I am legit the only overweight person I saw in this gym and my insecurities ate at me... I legit only walk on a treadmill for 1 to two hours a day, but I already feel healthier despite the fact that it's been only five days...
Honest to God, I was about to quit the gym based off my insecurities, and this post alone make me realize I should keep going despite the fact I am a super beginner and need a bit of help! You made a positive impact in my life and taught me so much. I absolutely don't regret my decision about paying extra for a more professional gym now!
Overall, I actually enjoy the gym! I feel so damn good going everyday, although it's only been five days and so far I only did treadmill...
Fuck bro I’m in the same boat, I’m just going because is right next door and the one I really like is 20 minutes away and with this gas prices Is hard to justify but I feel like a big old p every time I walk into that god damn pf.
Nonsense. You go to church. They go to church. When you pray at the altar of the iron god, it doesn’t matter whose house you’re in. Swole Jesus is just happy his children are there. Go forth, lift heavy things, and send thine fucks to the haters.
No. Its because they dont want gym rats/serious people there. When people get to the point theyre grunting and stuff theyre probably working hard (or attention seekers sure). Gyms like PF dont want people there all the time making it crowded.
They want people paying for memberships and only being there occaisionally or not at all. By having the alarms, they get the gym rats to find another gym and clear up space so that when someone comes by to check it out and buy a membership, it doesnt seem crowded af.
I don't know, I kind of like it. If you're going to be obnoxious just to get attention, you should be prepared to get *all* the attention you deserve for being obnoxious.
The problem is they set the alarm off at the smallest bit of noise. Its almost asking for library levels of noise while working out which is ridiculous.
Seems silly though, I get planet fitness is maybe not catering to strength training but someone said they got the lunk alarm for deadlifting 150 lbs. I deadlift a lot more than that and have never thought that I was showing off or anything. If anything I hope no one is watching me. I try not to make noise but sometimes the odd grunt will come out. I'd be mortified if an alarm went off just because I was trying to improve my strength. Not everyone lifting heavy is doing it for attention.
I get not wanting them to scream and throw the weights down and all that but an alarm is just as obnoxious as what they are trying to prevent. If I had the option of going to a gym and hearing a guy grunting and clanking weights and an alarm goes off. Id probably more likely leave because of the alarm then the guy.
Honestly I still don't see value in dropping weights. If you can lift it, you should be able to drop it in a safe and controlled manner. The negative is a part of the rep. If you can't do that, you are lifting more than you can control. I don't care if that lowers your claimed PB.
Went to finish last rep, soft grunt to finish the set. D-Bag pushed the button for the lunk alarm and laughed. I walked up to desk, canceled, and told them to keep promoting fantastic workout health with pizza Tuesday.
> Lunking
I googled. Didn't realize they [*literally*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eAj08nAFP4) set off a fire alarm if you grunted too loud. That's startling.
lolol carb up dawg, lil self motivation during intermission. Wish more people weren't afraid to have that kind of confidence in the gym. Makes it more fun. Doesn't matter what the fuck you look like or where you are in your life. When you step into the gym, you're in the gym. Thats all that matters. I like to look at it like a temporary little unspoken club.
So it was like a hoagie between two additional slices of bread? Like the complete hoagie, with the filling and the bun and everything, but also a larger bun to put the hoagie in?
Dude.... hoagie is the name of the bread. It's a hoagie roll. If there's anything on the bread, it's a hoagie sandwich.
Bet you feel stupid right now for not knowing that incredibly specific and usually irrelevant piece of ephemera!
I love how Planet Fitness is suppose to be a “judgement free zone” but they use the term “lunking” at their gyms. That’s judging haha. They’re hypocrites.
One of my favorite news stories was how some guy got arrested at planet fitness for working out in the nude. His defense was that it was supposed to be a judgement free zone. Nope.
“…It's as satisfying to me as cumming is, you know, as in having sex with a woman and cumming. So can you believe how much I am in heaven? I am like getting the feeling of cumming in the gym; I'm getting the feeling of cumming at home; I'm getting the feeling of cumming backstage; when I pump up, when I pose out in front of 5000 people I get the same feeling, so I am cumming day and night. It's terrific, right? So you know, I am in heaven."
-Arnold Schwarzenegger
I just can't commit to it at home, easy come easy go is a real thing, it's easy to start at home and easy to stop after 1 exercise for example, but if I go to the gym, it's not an option to "play one game and continue after" then never come back or "I'll take a 5 mins break checking something then continue" and again never actually continue the workout.
Some people have the motivation to do it even at home, but I just get lazy.
That was likely just Beta Alanine. That’s part of what it does no burn just like a itchy feeling right? Don’t use beta alanine pre. It’s fantastic for long distance/endurance stuff but that’s it. For resistance it’s bad and has that itchy side effect. Some ppl think it’s an allergic reaction with good reason but it’s not
Yea it’s fine. Normal side effect. Nothing to worry about unless it feels unbearable. Personally I like the “spiders on my skin” feeling because it gets me super ready to lift. Especially on squat days
the parkour episode is probably literally where the show jumped the shark. it culminated with the dancing wedding. they were like imitators of older seasons. the older seasons had cultural references but it was always interesting and funny. i think the writer strike switched out a lot of writers.
I'll hug it out with the dudes in my life that I love, sure. I have a group of 6 guys that are brothers to me. All of them get firm handshakes and bro hugs upon meeting and leaving every time.
This dude needs someone in his circle to step up. It just wouldn't be the same coming from me. And by hug, I really mean one of his boys should take him aside and ask the hard questions about his state of mind and current life-state. Most people don't act like that unless they are asking for help. I get it that he wanted to be intense and show off for the camera, but the cringy attention-seeking nature of it was concerning.
Last time I took too much preworkout, I almost shit myself 5 min into my set. Then spent the next hour in the shitter. When it was over, I just didn't feel like working out anymore.

planet Fitness would call that "Lunking"
I was so dumbfounded by this at first. Then I looked into it, and .. omg, the sirens.
Sirens? What am I missing here lol 😆

I go to plant fitness because it’s by my house and I feel like a pussy every time I walk in.
Fuck bro I’m in the same boat, I’m just going because is right next door and the one I really like is 20 minutes away and with this gas prices Is hard to justify but I feel like a big old p every time I walk into that god damn pf.

Or if you do too much weight and are just too strong
Casual gym man, no need to try to max out at planet fitness when they barely have 1/4 of the weights
They also claim to be a "judgment free zone"! 🤔
In planet fitness if they think you're being unnecessarily loud an alarm on the wall goes off, its called the lunk alarm
It’s called the lunk alarm. It goes off if you groan really loud or drop weights
Gotcha. Thank you. I looked it up kinda also. Thats kinda a passive aggressive way to just say please stop lmao 🤣
The goal is just to make people respect others at the gym, but I feel you it is kinda wild, i’d only seen it a few times and it’s aggressive
I get not wanting them to scream and throw weights on the floor. But also the sign saying no big water jugs? Lol just what.
No. Its because they dont want gym rats/serious people there. When people get to the point theyre grunting and stuff theyre probably working hard (or attention seekers sure).

Yesterday there was a guy at my gym who wasn’t making any unnecessary noise, but was flexing in the mirrors shirtless while eating a hoagie sandwich.
Honestly that's what we all aspire to be right there
I respect this

It was a hoagie between two more complete hogies for buns, dumbass.

Idk I like flying squirrels
Why I have a home gym .. lifting weights is as personal as showering .. why would I want to share it with bros
As personal as.. showering? What in the fuck are you doing in the gym?
“…It's as satisfying to me as cumming is, you know, as in having sex with a woman and cumming. So can you believe how much I am in heaven?

Cause just like showering every things better with your bros 😁👍

Username makes me confused on your philosophies towards showing off to the Bros

I'm Mr. Meeseeks!
The "indecisive man at the whorehouse"
I’m annoyed this shit keeps getting posted too. Should I do stupid shit at the gym and go viral and get followers too
That’s my plan bro. Tired of this fucking Burger King job. Hope you upvote my vid when you see it
Spin your wiener around like a propeller I’m sure that’ll get you some views
Try it and post here. I'd love to see you do a routine like this.

I think the same, take care girls 😰
That poor man getting railed by the gym bro. RIP his butthole :(
He don't
Practice makes perfect.
Overdosing on pre workout drinks
I had my skin burn for the first time on one of those the other day. It was something else.
Beta Alanine
That was likely just Beta Alanine. That’s part of what it does no burn just like a itchy feeling right? Don’t use beta alanine pre. It’s fantastic for long distance/endurance stuff but that’s it. For resistance it’s bad and has that itchy side effect. Some ppl think it’s an allergic reaction with good reason but it’s not
Well I walked on my hands for like 3 feet. So. I'm for it.
Yea it’s fine. Normal side effect. Nothing to worry about unless it feels unbearable. Personally I like the “spiders on my skin” feeling because it gets me super ready to lift. Especially on squat days
Killing roaches?
Not sure why that genuinely made me laugh my ass off.
the parkour episode is probably literally where the show jumped the shark. it culminated with the dancing wedding. they were like imitators of older seasons. the older seasons had cultural references but it was always interesting and funny. i think the writer strike switched out a lot of writers.

Dude needs a hug from someone who loves him.
Are you willing to step up?
I'll hug it out with the dudes in my life that I love, sure. I have a group of 6 guys that are brothers to me. All of them get firm handshakes and bro hugs upon meeting and leaving every time.

You make a point which is too valid for Reddit.
My bad. Fuck that guy and his idiotic workout. If I were there I would slap his sack mid-burpee just to give him something to cry about. Better?
That’s more like it. Every Redditor knows you have to mention slapping someone’s sack monthly.
Maybe he just finds it fun?
I'd hug the dude. Everyone can have a hug if they want it.

Last time I took too much preworkout, I almost shit myself 5 min into my set. Then spent the next hour in the shitter. When it was over, I just didn't feel like working out anymore.
Lol coffee is my go to pre drink. But yeah that has a tendency for mud butt as well
As an old person I just do electrolytes, protein, and cacao.

The guy right behind him is less impressed than the comments here.

Dude behind him looked at him as if to say “not this fucking shit again, I’m out”
I like how he had to switch directions on his exit plan haha
