Question(s) about gyms

[propsmc90]

I've never been to a gym before, do they have pull up bars and tricep-dip bars? I've never been a big fan of using weights... They should right? o.o

You can usually ask for a tour of a gym before joining.

[Lyriok]

Gyms have a variety of machines/stations for training each muscle it all depends on which gym your going to.

As Fuz has said they will usually allow you to take a small tour to show you what equipment they have and if it's suits your training.

[Lecktor]

Any gym that doesn't have a pull up bar and dip station is a garbage gym.

Gyms here actually prefer to give a tour before making/letting you sign up just so you know what they have to offer.

Find a couple in your area, go in and check them out, and find the one that's right for you.

24 hour gyms have been popping up around here a lot lately, so look into one of those too if you have odd hours.

I joined one which is growing fast over here in Australia. Major selling point of it for me was by signing up to my local one I can go to any "Anytime fitness" gym in Australia.

That works nicely if you travel frequently.

I picked my gym for a couple reasons. First, it was new and just opened so I got a decent deal. Second, it was 1 minute from my work, so I can easily go there for half an hour a day on my lunch our, or immediately after work too if I wanted. The equipment is all new and every cardio machine has it's own flat screen TV attached and iPod connectors, which is nice. Lastly it's open 24 hours so if I wanted to, say, go after going out with friends on the weekends or whatever or ass early in the morning, that option is always there. Lastly, it's not a meathead gym and no one gives a shit what anyone else is doing and you can just get your workout done and be on your way.

Unless it's an incredibly crappy gym you should avoid anyway, yes.

[jbhasban]

The answer to your question is yes. I have been a member of around 20 gyms over the year and all of them had these.
