i agree.

that guy went overboard tho....bet it felt great.

[waderow]

There is no such thing as roid rage that guy is just always a goof probably. He is probably the guy who holds his horn if you pass him while your driving on the highway. Or the guy who hits his girlfriends/wife....I enjoyed how he wipped the weight at the mirror and it didnt break!!!!

[waderow]

i think he may have over reacted, but ****.... that would really piss a guy off....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkIzfiG-jDc&feature=related <--but they allow this kind of form to go on obviously at planet fitness. By the way isnt that only 220 pounds since the bars weigh nothing on a smith press?

im confused. ok so the "lunk alarm" goes off if anyone is making noise when they are training (grunting or dropping weights etc.)?

who sets it off? does that mean you have to leave the gym? why is everything purple?

HOW did that mirror not break?

someone please clarify all these questions for me immediately.

[waderow]

I would really also like to know about those things ^^^^^

especially the mirror... like WTF???? that shit is space age. they should make banks out of that shit

[#8]

^^ LMAO!! i know. holy **** man. that looked like at least a 25 or 30lb dumbbell he threw. that would have ****ed up just about any glass i can think of at the speed he threw it at.

someone clarify please. about the mirror and my other questions.

thanks

I think the staff set off the alarm but I wouldn't be caught dead in a gym like that. Not even on a day pass. It's set off when people are making noise or possibly upsetting/intimidating the other members with their actions. So it's possible another member has to mention something but once again...wouldn't be caught dead.

It's purple because the gym is owned by Barney the Dinosaur.

A lot of mirrors arn't really glass. I had a bar tip on me today and as it went I thought "oh shit that glass is really expensive". Just bounced off the mirror, no cracks or anything.

hmmm....interesting......

that is by far the gayest gym i have ever seen then. ever.

ive said this before and i will say it again. i want aladdinsane to open a gym in southern ontario because im sick of all the faggy gyms ive worked out/still work out in.

The guy's technique needs a lot of work.

I mentioned the exact same thing in a different thread. Although I'm happy with the gym I joined today and the weird part is it's a Goodlife.

LOL i know. that guy is pretty serious. it would have really ****ed that girl up if it hit her, it came back at least 15 feet with a bounce.

Now that's a good mirror!!

Now that's a good mirror!!

Mirrorlite™ Glassless mirrors are a breakthrough in mirror technology offering unparallel safety and ease of installation due to their lightweight non-glass construction. Since glassless mirror are not made of glass they are shatterproof, significantly reducing the likelihood of personal injury, a benefit that is especially important in today's litigious environment.

A buddy of mine tapped a mirror at the local YMCA with a 45lb rubber coated weight and it shattered almost instantly. They obviously dont have those mirrors.

Heres the reasoning behind the Lunk Alarm... And someone else who got kicked out for breathing heavily

I wondering if saying "up" while you're lifting is frowned upon... I got into this habit a year ago and now I pretty much do it on all my heavy lifts. I swear it helps.

[waderow]

I would smash their ****ing mirror with a dumbell

WTF?? HUmmm... You pretty much hijacked my thread: http://www.canadabodybuilding.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14798. Check it out if you don't know what the Lunk Alarm is. They have it at Planet Fitness, an alarm goes off if you grunt or breathe too loud. Your membership can even be revoked.

They also have this "Jugdement Free Zone": "the most innovative health club brand in the United States, Planet Fitness is known for a lot of things – our absurdly low prices, our lunk alarm, and most of all perhaps, for our Judgement Free Zone® philosophy, which means members can relax, get in shape, and have fun without being subjected to the hard-core, look-at-me attitude that exists in too many gyms."

Sounds like a gym for sissies to me.

[CanadianIron]

I like to make a point of calling guys who press anything under 80lb dumbells, fags... i wonder if they'd kick me out?

Check the dates, and stop bitching

I spent about a half hour yesterday reading up on the lunk alarm when I seen this video lol. PF is a no judgement zone. But if you set off the alarm, they try and make you look like an idiot. Isn't that judging?
THey're very straight forward that they don't want bodybuilders or anyone built there that is 'intimidating'.

Here's the best part. They have free tootsie rolls they give away. I think it was something like 750,000 a month they go through.
One the first monday of every month they give away free pizza.
On the second tuesday of every month they give away free bagels.

Do you guys have this chain in eastern canada?

I havent seen one yet.

OK so I am coming home from the gym a little angry and perhaps inspired. I want a new alarm it will be called the 4" ROM Alarm for all these clowns that have invaded the gym. The ones who perform all pressing movements with 4" rom. From benchpress to shoulder press to squats.

When my alarm goes off I will have a baseball bat hanging on the wall. At this time I will grab the bat and beat these losers until they rescind their gym membership.

If the weight is too heavy, lower it and do it right!!
