This gym is a joke. This is the only gym near me for lifting on the spot.
Unfortunately and generally the Asian high school (BOYS) and even Asian men, claim the weight room like its theirs. I totally understand that this is in Chinatown, and the Chinese and Asian community will run prevalent here. However that doesnt mean that you should feel entitled to take over the weights and lifting machines for a whole hour, texting and screaming and/or playing around with your other friends while other people are waiting for you to finish your "workout" is disrespectful as hell.
Even the staff allows this behavior. The staff is there to keep this place as organized and efficient as possible. Not play around with the high schoolers as I've seen many times. They close the gym a little later than 10 just to satisfy the boys, but if none of these boys were there, they'd be kicking us out by 9:50
A lot of the members who I've talked to feel this way as well, and tend to feel a little too skeptical and uncomfortable with lifting in the weight room because like I said, the lifting area is claimed completely by these folks after 12 in the afternoon until closing. It's almost impossible to complete my lifting sessions here.
My gym partner had enough too, he was coming with me as well. "The only gains these boys are getting is evil looks cause everyone's tired of their bull****"
Staff. Dont be so biased just because you built a relationship with these man-children. People of all colors and races come to this gym too and want to use the machines as well So, why dont you do your job and monitor the machines and the weight room like you should to avoid people from abusing time? Nobody should feel like they cant go inside a weight room because its aimed to a specific race.
