OP, a lot of insurance plans now have agreements with health plans for super cheap rates. At Lifetime these memberships are limited to certain hours so that if you come during this time frame you are surrounded by geezers who spend hours at the gym; with no job to go to they are in no hurry.

Before people judge me, my particular resentment comes from the fact that my workout hours coincide with the insurance hours and a lot of the class schedule has been given over to specialized elderly classes. They even fill up the "regular" classes so that there's an overall dumbing down/easing up of intensity that I don't like. I don't go to the gym for easy.

^This is nonsense.

Because I don’t see younger people or women taking up permanent residency near pieces of work-out equipment. It’s always some old guy.

Nope. It's always men of all ages. I see groups of teenage boys monopolizing equipment while they all work in sets. I see adult men of all ages take over multiple pieces of equipment by leaving their stuff (bag, water bottle, etc.) on the machines while they "use" 2-3 machine at a time. I see men who will use a machine for excessive amount of time by either doing an excessive number of sets or they are on their phones and NOT exercising. I occasionally see a couple do this but most of the time it's adult men of all ages that feel entitled at the gym.

It's so rude and inconsiderate.

You sound like fun.

Did I hit a nerve? Sound like your behavior at the gym? Guess what, you suck.
