Hey guys, I am opening a new gym in the next few months. It will be 4k SF with the basics, dbs up to 150s, 3 racks, comp bench, hammer strength, jungle, bumpers and a few other items serious athletes would recognize. Basically, a place for people who don't like the commercial gym scene. My goal is not have an elitist mentality, but provide a safe space free from dbags, peering eyes and tramps. Simply put a place to train, and train hard with other like minded people.
That being said, I want it to reflect us and have a personality of it's own, so we will have black and white pics with athletes and slogans on the walls and variiou other pieces of nostalgia. The gym being a reflection of myself and vision will be a bit over the top in ways and when it comes to the rules I want them to be humurous and sarcastic. Most people will get a chuckle, but if the $65 month fee doesn't keep out the trash I want the rules to minimize the possibility.
So, I am asking for help. Keep in mind if any of these relect you that's cool, but this is my place so these represent my thoughts of how a member should behave.
1. If you pick it up then put it back.
2. Remember, you kiss your mother with that mouth.
3. Save the ILS for the stage.
4. If you take a selfie make sure I'm impressed (we have a problem with young people setting up tripods and cameras to do leg extensions. One day I watched a kid dump a 405 squat attempt because he had his partner holding his phone).
5. If you're gonna grunt it better be heavy (there is this cute Asian girl who grunts orgasmicly on the last 5 reps of every set )
6. No exposed nips or transparent clothing.
7. Sneakers, not sandles.
These are a rough draft, but are all issues that I have rolled my eyes at particularly at my current gym. I swear every dude is showing their nips and several ladies where that sheer spandex that shows their when they bend over. I want wife's and husband's to feel their spouses are safe when they are at my place.
Now, I am willing to make exceptions and change some things, but I don't feel these rules are unreasonable. And well you don't have to join.
Any input appreciated.
