Don't. Get a doorway pull up bar. Much cheaper and you can now work 90% of your upper and lower body through bodyweight exercises which will get you plenty ripped until you want to take it to next level.
Well, I mean their commercials openly mock the physically fit.
They seem to cater towards “average” people, meaning not super fit beautiful people. It’s their way of making “average” people more comfortable because apparently fit, healthy, attractive people are intimidating. I went from a real gym to 24hr fitness and was laughed at by a worker when I asked where the chalk was. He said “this is a fitness club”. At my old gym most people were very serious about fitness, and never once did I see anyone mock or look down on a non fit person. Actually the opposite, everyone super friendly and willing to help spot or give advice when asked. A few years later I moved out to a wealthier area of town and joined Lifetime fitness. There they had mostly machines and a small free weight area, but the facility is massive. Lot’s of wannabe’s and nobody overly muscular. At certain times, it was like social hour where people just stand around and talk... it was a little annoying. Especially Saturday mornings when all the girls come out with full makeup and earings and lululemon clothes. Actually, some of them loved the stair steppers in the front row, I didn’t mind that...actually made walking on the tradmills behind them enjoyable. At any gym, I just pull my hat down and work out and mind my own business. I never really had a problem with anyone. Anyway, If you want to join PF, then join PF and don’t worry about anything or anyone else. All gyms are different and there’s no shame in working out there.
They actively discourage fit people from joining the gym.
There is absolutely no reason not to join. Uberswank is giving terrible advice.
For $10 a month, it's a steal to have a full-fledged gym that's open 24/7. Yeah, they don't have a lot of things, but if you're just starting out, it won't matter. Join for a while, get in-shape, then decide if you wanna spend 3x more for a few more things. If Uberswank is really so triggered by a commercial he may just be a leftist.
You wont really enjoy working out there. Its mostly designed around people who dont really want to excersize. They have a very limited amount of actual gym equipment and seem to discourage wieghtlifting. However if you dont have a need or desire to do much wieghtlifting and are more interested in a place to go run on a treadmill, it is much cheaper than a 24 hour fitness or similar
Its one of the best investments in my household. I've always been a lightweight, but a few small weights and that bar have given me about 35lbs of muscle, as I have no fat.
never doubt these bars! They're fairly cheap, too!
