Bad Gym Experience

New member
I JUST STARTED WORKING OUT AT A NEW GYM A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, AND THESE TRAINERS THAT WORK AT THE GYM ARE CONSTANTLY BLOWING WHISTLES AND BEING WAY TO FUCKING LOUD. MOST OF THE TIME THERE ISN'T ANYONE IN THIS GYM ANYHOW...THERE IS ENTIRELY TOO MUCH HORSEPLAY. SO YESTERDAY I CALLED AND COMPLAINED. TODAY I GO INTO THE GYM AND INSTEAD OF AN APOLOGY, ONE OF THE NOISY BASTARDS WALKS BY AND MURMERS "C'MON, THERE'S NO HORSEPLAY ALLOWED IN THIS GYM" TO THE GIRL HE'S TRAINING. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT SHIT? HE MADE A MOCKERY OUT OF MY COMPLAINT! FUCK THAT PLACE.
 
in my persona;l expeirence the gym isnt fun wihtout a little horseplay, but i like to enjoy my lifting. if your to serious your just to serious. i mean i lift to get the best results but who says it cant be a little fun . PEACE
 
DO YOU LIKE HAVING SWISS BALLS BOUNCING NEAR YOUR HEAD AND WHISTLES BLOWING IN YOUR EAR WHILE YOU ARE TRYING TO BENCH 300LBS??? I KNOW I DON'T.
 
i've never had that problem, but in my opinion you did the right thing. no offense to anyone here but most trainers are annoying and distracting even when they aren't blowing a god damn whistle!
 
I've been away from the gym for 21days, this is my first week back and my strength has all gone to hell so I am not feeling overly confident to begin with.

Today was shoulders, and I'm also giving a needsize style 5x5 routine a shot as well now that I am back in the gym. I start with military press (weight intentionally omitted here) and I notice this girl watching me. I think, ‘cool...’ But then I see this guy, sitting next to me on the other bench and he's also watching me. Well watching me between his sets of 65lb military presses, no need to omit that. I think, ‘okay, this is odd...’

A few sets later I realize they must be dating or brother and sister or both. Who knows, at this point I don't really give a shit I just want the staring to stop.

I get up; re-rack my weights like a good citizen and then the dude is standing right in front of me. So, I pull the right headphone off my ear and he says, "Why don't you just pick a weight that you can do a full set of?" I kind'a just stared at him, that stunned look I get when confronted with abject idiocy, put my headphone back on and walk around him.

Looking back, I probably took it the wrong way. It was probably a genuine question, he didn’t sound like a smartass at all, no snotty little tone. But that’s how I chose to take it…
 
I can't believe he called the gym and complained. What a puss. The more noise the better I hate those quiet, cold, easy listening gyms. Go lift at a museum if you want peace and traquility.
 
no but i do enjoy a certain Amount of kaos in the gym. ima a rocker punk young thug looking guy. LOVE kaos. motivates me. totaly anarchy in the gym as long as it doesnt get in the way of my work out physicaly i wouldnt care if bin laden blew up the aerobics room and eddie murphy told white jokes in his old school mother fuckj manner over the load speaker. PEACE
 
Blowing whistles in the gym? What the hell? Horseplay? I've never been in a gym where people weren't just training. Of course there are a few douchebags who stand around talking, but no horseplay.
 
how bout asshole, that works for me moron. who are you to call em a poser or a idiot? we all take our work out experiences differently. I like loud music and commotion. it motivates me to hear bars dropping , weight slamming and people moaning to get their last set. it motivates me to have some hard core Korn or staind over the loud speaker. yes chaos kaos Kay ose however my ebonics slang typing ass wants to spell it. the point is thje more commotion the better in my personal opinion. dont fuckin flame on me becasue you liek to lift weights in a monestary ASSHOLE.

and i have the drive and self control to not let a fucking whistle ruine my work out to the point i have to go home and CAPS A ENTIRE THREAD ON WHAT A UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE IT WAS>< lmao

fuckin push your iron and shut the fuck up or go to the old folks gym.

No its not a high school gym I actually have to pay for this shit. I asked why they use the whistles they said its a part of the trainers training. I'm just upset because I just started and I'm under contract.
 
i dont think the complaint was unwarented, if you dont like that, it is definately your right to want to complain, my little vent of emotion was not directed toward you Boscoe. Peace
 
i wonder if this ever happens at the gym i work out at....but then again i'd never notice because i'm too focused on my own training to care about what anyone else is doing
 
unless that chick that wears the really short shorts with the great ass is doing stiff legged deadlifts....but hey, i'm only human :p

In my life I have never seen anyone blowing whistles in a gym...(And I have trained in dozens of different arenas)
That sucks for you...:(
Are they employed by the gym or independents?
 
i hate these pussy corporate gyms. I need to find a powerlifting gym around me with chains, bands, and a cloud of chalk everywhere!

report them to the Better Business Bureau or find out the insurance company that represents them. I am sure an insurance company would love to know what the gym staff is doing to help their clients keep safe. if it was me I would have not the fucker out.
 
Terminator they are employed by the gym. I made my complaint and now its just an akward situation going in there. I'm suppose to talk to another manager Monday. I want out of the contract. Grunting, slamming weights, or loud music I expect but that whistle is just to startling when your lifting.
 
Your gym sounds to me like a goddamn boot camp. If you ask nicely they may let you out of the contract... if that doesn't work, scream at them until they concede
 
If you argue enough, they'll let you out of the contract. I had to force my way out of a contract with this gym that was ripping me off. They'll try to convince you that it's not necessary, but you need to demand it. And don't let them try to penalize you with extra costs.
 
I'd be pissed if that shit was going on while I was training too. I've done the hardcore thing myself, trained with a guy that had a 900lb competition squat that would throw 45lb plates like frisbies when he missed a lift, but that still had something to do with training.
 
If they don't wanna let you out, I really would try to find out the
insurance company.

When the music plays hell loud, this is something different.

When I have to concentrate on my wheights and a ball flying
around this could make me losing my concentration for that
moment and that would be fucking dangerous.

Let us know, how you proceed.
 
It's very easy to choke on a whistle............
yeah that would be annoying as hell. so why are they blowing them? I mean is it like "Rep! (whistle), rep! (whistle)" or what?

Talk to a manager or ask to cancel your membership you will see there attitude change.
 
whistles, why the hell do they have whistles.. The gym's in this country are a little more relaxed, ok i think your gunna get horseplay wherever you go... but whistles????
 
i realy dont get it. sorry but i got flamed with negative karma for my posts. lol. and I never said i act lieka fool. i just said it wouldnt bother me as well as some sort of noise in the background motivates me. i think in my own workout program i would be to into my work out to be botherd by whistles but i have never had the pleasure of training with a volleyballl coach or any type of whistle blowing counter part. PEACE
