    Default Planet Fitness

    I'm sure many of you have read the rumors about Planet Fitness as I have, but I just saw this commercial the other day which confirms their hypocrisy. This is supposedly a gym that prides themselves on having a "non-judgmental" exercise environment.

    Feel free to let me know what you think, but this doesn't look non-judgmental to me. In fact, it looks downright discriminatory against anyone who wants to push hard and achieve a true sense of self-accomplishment.

    well, I mean it is a purple and yellow painted facility with a tanning bed included ..am I wrong? lol No one who lifts serious weight could ever feel comfortable and at peace lifting here anyway! it's more or less a co-ed lucielle roberts . I think they do a fair job at attempting to sell to the right audience of perhaps ' not so intense' lifters at a fair,inexpensive price . They give the disclaimer and rules that no chalk, screams....uhh.weight slamming?..can be conducted lmao so... its all goooood. YEAH PLANET FITNESS. =p

    Believe TBS has already covered the "discriminatory" angle -- bodybuilders are not a protected class.

    I'm obviously not a lawyer (lol yeah, yeah! or a bodybuilder for that matter ), but the following bit of text seems applicable:

    "Under federal law, discrimination is illegal when it is based on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. 42 U.S.C. § 3604. In California, it is also illegal to discriminate on the basis of ancestry, marital status, age, sexual orientation, source of income or medical condition. California Government Code §12955(a) and 12926. California Civil Code §§51-51.3."

    More @ http://www.msslc.com/protected-classes2.html

    Maybe some bodybuilders could get a lawyer to file a case against PF stating that being myostatin-negative is a medical condition.

    Yea I've been here since 09 and seen at least 25 threads on PF. I actually train my girl there for legs. I couldnt even warm up there personally though. Now I'm gonna pin some tren and not give a fuck about PF for the night.

    No fail, imo. Just because someone talked about football yesterday doesn't mean all additional conversations about football are forbidden. It might be a mod or forum leader's job to merge duplicate threads, but is it really a member's job to review ALL threads before creating a new thread or replying to a thread?

    I gotta ask, though, how is your k lower case but your O and D are upper case? That's failish.

    (ducks, runs, hides! )
