Having spent 4 sessions at this nice gym I can conclude that past a certain bar of price, things get really well. Most gym goers I encounter are well built and athletic. I have not met any champion yet, but let's see.

That is to say in a cheap gym I used to go to, there were a couple of national body building champions.

So perhaps, it is those nice affordable commercial gyms accessible to everyone that are bad gyms.

By bad, I mean people give unsollicited incorrect advise. People just going to take pictures, are the majority are either new comers, could not lose or gain mass over a long period of time due to inefficient training.

That inefficient training is the big issue because you cannot build a training friendly atmosphere and you would keep doing crap uncorrected.

@dragnucs I've been working out at home since 2018. granted, I'm fortunate enough to have space in my parents' basement for some basic equipment (an adjustable bench, dumbbells). I feel like someone who is sufficiently self critical can reference plenty of information online to guide them, and at home I can workout to whatever soundtrack I want and not share equipment with anyone 🤣

@benda Home gym is very good. As you said, you just need to be self-critical to improve. Yet, if you aren't then a good training partner or coach becomes a necessity.

@dragnucs absolutely. and to be honest, maybe I should start looking for a trainer. I lost a lot of muscle I gained when I stopped working out for a shoulder impingement, and for whatever reason I can't get it back.then again, that "maybe" depends on me working less and somehow making more money. probably not happening 🙄

@benda You should not associate workout with anything. Working out is self-sufficient independent activity. A mistake is to associate your workout to some event that will happen in the future or a precondition that you need to fulfill.For example, that you will get a gym membership as soon as you get your pay check, or when you start making X amount per month, or when you move to an other house, etc.You just need to start working out, period. Of course, you start with appropriate level.

@dragnucs oh definitely. again, I am and have been working out for years. it's just the hiring of a trainer part that's I was hypothesizing about.

@benda Coaches can be pretty expensive.

@Humpleupagus I mean for example Back Double Biceps or Side Triceps poses. Just the face does not let us appreciate your nature given body sculture.

@Humpleupagus @benda I did your homework for you.
