Guys post your pros and cons of having a gym membership also being at the gym, not so much the "home gym" but being in a environment with other people.

What makes you angry
What gives you a hype
What music should they play etc...

Just bitchy stuff hahahaha.
 
other people can check form at the gym, as long as there are people that actually know form, and not idiots telling you that you should do 1/4 squats.
At home form is much harder for me to judge, i videotape and watch the video but its not like having a coach saying keep your back neutral or whatever.

I'd have to say the music, the smell of dirty sweat, people sitting at a machine and talking, and ****s asking me how much the bar weighs... Lol
 
PROS:
The perve
Having plenty of equipment

CONS:
Driving there
Finding Parking
Smelly People
Sweaty equipment
Plates not returned
Misplaced dumbbells
Posers
Wankers
Equipment Hoggers
Not being able to train in your undies
Music
Wankers (I know I said it twice)
Cost
People telling you how to train
The showers
The change rooms
Driving home sweaty
Driving home

No wonder I love training at home:p
 
PROS
Choice of equipment - I don't stray far from the power rack but it means no one else wants to use it.
Gets me out of the house - I work from home so gives me a break from work.
Ego boost
The perve

CONS
Bars not unloaded
Weights not put back/left on floor
Weights not in correct place/order - Mildly OCD about this and no reason why.
Sweat on equipment/floor
Judgemental looks
Repetitive music - playlist needs an update.
 
Couldn't believe it when they brought in the free wi-fi at my gym.

During my sets I browse youporn, clip hunter and xvideo, find a good video, bookmark it, then once done go jerk off in toilet/shower (little fully enclosed rooms).

I feel bad blowing in the sink but I figure I left blood on the barbells (from calais's) so big deal.

:eek:
