I’ve talked about the equipment at 24Hr Fitness, and some tips to getting a great workout while traveling and going to an unfamiliar gym.
But let me take a minute to talk about the people I saw there. I’m about to go pretty harsh. I’ll try to keep my ranting to a minimum, and there’s actually a happy ending to this…
The Average Gym-Goer
First off 75% of the people there were barely exercising more than the equivalent of walking from their kitchen to their TV room. Most of them just did machines. And they barely put any effort into it. Just going through the motions.
Same thing with the cardio machines. Most of the people were just walking. Walking. I’m not anti-walking. But I don’t know why anyone would go to a gym to walk. It’s so much more fulfilling to walk outside.
Nobody (except for one guy, which I’ll talk about more) had a workout journal. I must have seen 100 people in my 3 days there on machines and freeweights and only one guy (other than me) was serious enough to have a training log.
