This is at the Dunbar Community Centre. I was told by a fitness attendant that the ladies (not necessarily cardio bunny age) felt scared around people "huffing and puffing" while doing deadlifts. There were also complaints about noise. The vast majority of people against deadlifts are the ones who usually do pure cardio (nothing against this) while talking to other people at the same time with loud volumed voices. It's quite disappointing.

My gym membership lasts until the end of the year, so I'll probably sneak in deadlift days in the late evenings or early mornings.

I'm looking for alternatives right now. Did more research on Gold's Gym at UBC and it seems like problems still exist.
