Is anyone else? I mean come on, the "judgement free" gym is clearly judging people who are into heavy lifting.

Yes, I thought it was funny but insulting at the same time.

Agreed... many of these people have advanced degrees in exercise physiology and/or nutrition.

 

[06RFSTANG]

I just thought it was funny.But I can see if you are into bodybuilding it might piss you off.

 

[The Bone]

better not offend those tho like the gym and tanning, we have equal rights to the out of shape and pale people who criticize from behind a monitor

....or work in Finance.

Hell, I know of em whose not only a LumberJill, but also works for the gov't....shes pretty smert.

 

[Chongoculo]

They just want the average person to feel comfortable enough to sign up, work out twice, put on a smaller shirt, and never show up again, while auto payments continue.

She must be a trip.

I did see this and had mixed feelings. But on the same token I had some guy at my fitness center tell me the older women who work out there are offended by the young bucks who come in and huff and puff and grunt. I said, "Oh yeah, really?" Apparently no one has issue with me coming in there and huffing, puffing and grunting? It's merely stereotypes and intimidation that most people cannot overcome, in my opinion. Blame media, blame celebrities, blame whomever. Weak minds breed weak bodies.

That's why we ignore them, and continue to persevere on our own.

Not to mention what they do is make him look like he's an idiot which is sterotyping everyone who decides to become heavily involved in weight lifting are a bunch of oafs who have nothing but air in their heads

 

[irishpwr46]

[Roush23]

idk abt your gym, but the bodybuilders in mine really DONT take the gym that seriously. They are pretty cool and personable.

The pros have to take it very seriously. Thats why they pros. It could be their job or they could be preparing for a competition

Eating is a different story, these guys set 3am alarms for a protein shake.

I know, Im just missing the judgment free part.

I thought it was pretty funny to be honest, but then again I don't get offended by strangers saying or doing things. I can certainly see how it may be offensive though :nono:

Talk about serious...that's the time I wake up to train and do cardio on my off days....only on weekdays, of course.
