    I go to 4 or 5 different gyms depending where I'm at. They are all under the 24 HR Fitness franchise which I'm sure several members are familiar with. Nothing spectacular. Typical franchise cookie-cutter model where most of the gyms look almost identical. Not like some of the older gyms with character and history that you guys have mentioned! Those sound great!

    Over crowding in the franchise gyms is the biggest problem. Too many people treating it like a social club. More than half the trainers look like they've never picked up a weight or set foot on a cardio device.

    One of my favorite gyms was in Vietnam. It had a lot of Asian girls within the 6 floors of training space! Cardio, weights, yoga, exercise classes in a building that overlooked down town Saigon.

    Did I mention, it had lots of Asian girls!!!!

    That makes one person then. It's a start:

    brevity (usually uncountable; plural brevities)
    (uncountable) The quality of being brief in duration.  
    (uncountable) Succinctness; conciseness.  
    (rare, countable) A short piece of writing.

    Derived terms

    brevity is the soul of wit

    Ahead of me then. I often feel I'm three pages behind and I'm always "being told".

    i never have to wait in line and most of the time i am the only guy in there! i hope yall enjoy the pics and i also hope to see some pics of where yall lift as well!

    i know kel uses his basement and im sure some of yall have some interesting set-ups too!
    Are there any plants in there?

    It's a bit upscale but you get what you pay for. Indoor/ outdoor pools, lap pool, steam room in each locker room, cherrywood lockers, granite benches, huge sauna.

    I was on a free ride for years from the parents but I have been paying for a few years on my own now. 55$/month. And that's the rate I'm locked in from 10yrs ago. I'm probably dropping my membership because its too pricey. Go to LA Fitness or something

    lol... that's not me... wish it was. This dude doesn't look like much in this pic but he's actually got a great physique, and he's young.

    Btw, it's actually white, not pink - just bad lighting!

    Lmao!!! I can't STAND those shirts... totally gay looking... but unfortunately they're pretty popular around here... I can't imagine why. You'll never see me in one, a) because I'd look like a fat douche, and b) even if I didn't, that's just not me!

    Haha. I had a feeling it was white. So let me get this straight. You just randomly went up to a dude and took a picture of his lifting?

    I can proudly say that I have never seen a shirt like that. The ones I wear are pretty tight too though (Nike Store. Nike Pro Combat Core Compression 2.0 Men's Sleeveless Shirt).

    That shirt doesn't do the guy or his body any justice. I need to have a long talk with him.. Man I would never ever be caught wearing that out to the gym or anywhere else for that matter. But to each their own...lol
