Main Entry: mediocracy
Part of Speech: n
Definition: a system where mediocracy is approved; a government by mediocre rulers
Etymology: mediocre + -ocracy 'government'
now for the root word.
mediocre [ˌmiːdɪˈəʊkə ˈmiːdɪˌəʊkə]
adj
Often derogatory average or ordinary in quality.
See planet Fitness is catering to the normal average person who knows jack shit about how to use a gym. Even the trainers who are certified do very bad at actually helping people reach the goals they desire. So In all the governing bodies are to blame including the conservative pricks who enjoy being humiliated by there doctors and don't know how to put down the tootsie rolls.

We should take a donation and use it to rent a camera that is concealable.

Won't shield them? Who is the them? Bodybuilders don't need shielding in this case, but rather the establishment that is discriminating openly because of what someone looks like. A bodybuilder in its most rudimentary definition is someone that works out. While the facility is private property and have a right to allow membership only to those they choose they need to be consistent in their policy, which would be impossible to claim a defense of in practice. The 300# guy that used to workout could be excluded while simultaneously the bantam weight active bodybuilding competitor allowed membership. To win such a lawsuit I'd think it best to demonstrate this with a big black guy that has has great genetic makeup and is "big boned" and a WASP 130 lb competitor. Michael Clarke Duncan, the actor from the Green mile along with one of our over 60 year old Class competitors from a local or regional show would do nicely. There are so many ways to blow legal holes in their policy its crazy no one has bothered to try. Oh, the mental anguish pain and suffering! )
Nobody is suing which is results in them doing it as they know there is no the bodybuilding, fitness, and figure community won't do anything.

LOL I think PF is pathetic...their whole no judgment but discrimination against bodybuilders is hypocritical. I'm not offended...I just think it's retarded. Let the pussy ass bitches go to their planet fitness and leave the real gyms alone. More space for the serious people.

While I think the PF policy is stupid, different gyms do have different clienteles. A weekend warrior wouldn't go to West Side Gym in Ohio & feel comfortable. Even if the gym allowed membership, the members would probably run the person out.
Rather than guerrilla tactics that might get someone arrested, an online campaign to boycott PF might be a better idea. Massive complaints, bad publicity, members who resign in protest, etc.

Hifrommike has a really good point. While it is tempting to raise holy hell, hitting them in the wallet and the reputation is a more peaceable and damaging way.
