Crystal’s Rants

Ok so I realize the point of a gym is to sweat, but on a day that is 90 plus out and when you work out it is a little extreme to work out in a big barn structure with no circulation at all.  This was me today as I was at the gym.  The owner of our gym determined he wanted to "save money" so he turned the gym part of the split system off and left his ac blowing strong in the office.  He had no issue with this, but it was hotter than it was outside inside.
I am all about going and sweating, but I want to work for that sweat and have an effective workout rather than walking into the gym only to pour down sweat and get a headache before i even touch the weights.
This is not the first time this "money saving" has been a factor with the gym, he turns it on when the women’s fitness class is there in the afternoon because that is when he is in the main gym but not when the normal working out people are there.  So I have an issue with this.  It was so extreme that today I switched gyms to I won’t be hindered from a great workout simply because he doesn’t want to fulfill his portion of the contract.  If I wanted to workout at a place with no AC i could do so for a lot less than the fitness club prices he has!
