You are right about the people there though. I was doing some dumbbell lateral raises and some guy goes right in front of me and starts doing bicep curls with heavier dumbbells.
I'm guessing this is an attempt to show me up? I hope he realizes were working on different muscles.
Yeah. Not only that. Its just horrible watching some of the people there work out. They have the worst form or lift weights that they obviously cannot lift. Its funny cause they have a PE or HKIN teacher in there and he doesn't notice these things at all or try to help them better their workouts.

YMCA in downtown is just as bad as well.

The equipment is the Signiature Series of Life Fitness which I wasn't feeling either. They're barbells have bearings in them. So when you bench press for example, the weights on the side start to slowly turning in either direction. Its weird and it throws me off when I bench or do other exercises. Plus there are a lot of guys in there who think they're the strongest and like to show you up. Its quite sad.

I could go on all day about YMCA.

I'll stick with Golds. Good equipment with nice and helpful people (Random heat bags and/or Guidos walk in here in there, but still super nice).

Yeap.
