    Gym is fucking bourgeoisie, imagine after work going: alright, time to lift and put down some weights in room full of strangers? (And you fucking pay for that privilege of useless labor) Tf outta here, go dig a hole and plant a tree

      Gyms are fine. They got good equipment that proles can't afford and health is important. Try working out at home in a 2 bedroom apartment with 2 kids a wife and mother in law. That being said yes bourgeois people in general have more time to dedicate to theirselves for any hobby they wish including, gyms. We need social gyms imo.

        It was mainly a bit

        also for bodyweight you basically need 2 square meters of ground, and a bunch of metal tubes

          Gyms are not inherently bourgeois, they're neutral they just remind you of someone or something you hate. If you live in the city you just gonna go do squats and pushups and shit on the corner? Or be the asshole doing pull ups on the train? Shits whack as fuck.

        most exercises can be done in a small area in a short period of time. my bf is a bodybuilder and makes use of a 5x5 foot area where our dining room should be. he lifts for about 30 minutes each day and bikes to the grocery store afterwards

        i have abs and i got them just from doing weightless workouts. generally it just matters the volume of what youre lifting. if you want your workout to not take long you need to work the weight up

        my bf can lift enough that he could beat local lifting tournaments with ease. we too busy with work to do that though

            lunges and sit ups, nothing crazy. just gotta have good form and you gotta be consistent. no slacking. also helps im a skinny small person to start with

            lunges help with abs too, just be sure you keep your core tight and try to balance with your glutes and abs

          Glad that works for you. My point is what's wrong with having ideally community gyms free to all. I find the equipment extremely helpful and many need it for physical therapy or to build enough strength to do more aerobic/free weight lifting. I work around 60hrs a week not counting domestic work in the home and tbh scheduling is difficult.
