One day a friend of mine asked me if I would train with him at his gym.  I agreed to train with him and little did I know what I was getting myself into!  I asked him about his gym and he told me the name, “Planet Fitness.”  I asked him how much he paid a month and he told me that it was only $10.00.  I figured that it couldn’t hurt being that I was already a member of LA FITNESS, and it was another gym where I could train to get a little change of scenery and workout with a friend for cheap.

I arrived at the gym for the first time not knowing what I was in for.  I immediately paid $58.00 to sign up and to receive the $10.00 a month charge without doing investigative work on the gym.  I got my membership card and immediately walked in the gym with my bag and all.  I was stopped by a manager who told me that I couldn’t bring my bag into the gym?!?  I was like why?  He answered, “We’ve had problems in the past where people have stolen dumbbells.”  I was like, what the h*ll?  He then proceeded to tell me that I couldn’t bring my gallon of water into the gym and then instructed me to read a sign that was posted up outside the entrance.  After reading this I thought to myself “how gay!”  So I put my bag back into my car and proceeded to head into the gym and smelled pizza?!?  I looked over at a table and there were 10 boxes of pizza sitting there.  I was like, WOW, is it someone’s birthday and my buddy said it’s part of customer appreciation day.  I was like….”how gay!”  Instead of motivating people to lose weight, they were encouraging people to have bad eating habits…what a gym!  I even looked across the gym and saw an overweight lady chasing a slice of pizza hanging from the front of her treadmill…I thought to myself…”how gay!” 

So then I wanted to warm-up with some dumbbell action and asked where the heavier dumbbells were.  I was told that their dumbbells only go up to 75lbs. All of my lean heads out there understand what I am getting at….”how gay!”  No 125lb dumbbells?!?…straight disrespect right there!  I was doing some light curls and heard a fire siren so I immediately dropped my dumbbells and ran outside.  My friend ran out after me and was like, what are you doing?  I responded, “That bitch is on fire!!!”  He was laughing hysterically at me and said that when it got too loud in the gym or people dropped weights loudly a fire siren goes off to restore all order?!?”….I was like…”for real?…how gay!”  I went back in finished my workout and heard the siren a total of 8 times and that last siren was because of me.  I slammed my weights to the ground because during dead lifts, that siren went off and I was right underneath it and that could have caused me a serious injury!!!  PLANET FITNESS IS FOR SISSY’S OR PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT SERIOUS ABOUT WORKING OUT…THIS IS NOT A REAL GYM.  MY FELLOW FRIENDS…DO YOU AGREE WITH ME OR NOT?  SHARE YOUR COMMENTS AND FEELING ABOUT THIS…
