    Mod Post: The Ideal Gym

    Among much else in my ideal gym, there would be some fucking stringent rules around social media. For example: If you use social media to harass people who go to the gym, it's an instant ban. If you want to ask someone out, do it face to face. Any harassment over social media, whether that...

    Getting a gym membership today and I’m already anxious and embarrassed

    @joanie59 I'm saying this very gently, but if the idea of asking an employee at a gym a question about that gym is this terrifying for you, perhaps speaking with a therapist should be your actual first step.

    @twinmama What if you're someone who doesn't want to be in any groups at all? You want to work out and be friendly, but never actually have to speak to anyone unless it's in passing?

    Is 2-3 minutes between sets too long? I keep getting rude looks from guys at the gym..

    Has anyone had a silly “lightbulb” moment while exercising?

    @m32s Bench press being a whole body movement. I would honestly say that the majority of the time I see people bench pressing they really aren't engaging their legs at all. Loads of videos that I have seen on IG and, ahem, also on this forum, show me women who are benching with their upper...

    @dawn16 Ooh, ooh, can there be options as to who gives you the advice on the screens? Can we recruit say, The Rock and Sara Sigmundsdottir to provide form cues and then tell you that you did well? Oh, I LOVE this idea!

    Does anyone else feel like they look incredibly stupid at the gym?

    @colton1919 There is a good fucking chance that if a dude said that to me that I'd reach out and push him off his treadmill. I daresay I'd do it in one swipe, like a cat pushing a water glass off a table.
