Why don't they have free weights? What's the point of a gym without free weights

I know that feel bro
My gym closed and they transferred everyones membership to Planet FatAss. I go there and everyone is fat and dyel, ham beasts just sitting in the massage chairs watching tv, Gym manager is a some nu-male skeleton fag boy. and nothing but pussy weight and smith machines. Had to endure for about four days before I found a new gym that was suited for me.

That doesn't seem like a fair deal...

Yea my old gym was gonna pay for the first month of Planet FatAss for the people who transferred, they sent a letter out and everything. Was a pretty bad feel, I jumped ship pretty quickly the smith machine bullshit made me feel neutered, my step mom and her mom love it though, I'm trying to get them to my new gym now since they have a swimming pool, basket ball court, and other cool things. So far she likes the sound of it and my Dad is on board with me all the way

If that's all you can afford, get a good pair of shoes and do a bodyweight routine while running regularly. Get what you can from bodyweight and cardio until you can afford a better gym

have a planet fitness membership too, would smith machines be at least decent for PPL if I add more weight to compensate for how shit they are?

Or should I just find a new gym

I just can't afford it meng I'm a broke poorfag. My mom even pays for my gym membership because I'm a quasi-NEET that lives in an apartment.

I just want to get swole...

Why must this be so damn complicated??

>>36731736

I don't think adding more weight is going to help im afraid.

Getting fit is a waste of time if your life is a shitfest. Get your life together, and then worry about lifting heavy things. Having big muscles and big numbers is pointless compared to your life

>>36730878

there is literally nothing wrong with machines.
stabilizer muscles are a meme.

>>36731801
so smith machiens are entirely useless?

pls be true

>>36731851

Not entirely, but they just aren't as good as free weights

>>36731822
Machines are useful, but stabilizer muscles are important too

The best routine uses both full body movements and machine/free weight isolation

>>36731822
Read the sticky you fuckin newfag

>>36731788
quit making excuses you fucking idiot. just start lifting shit. a real lifter wouldnt be stopped by a lack of weights. ill fucking lift anything bro

>muh free weights
>muh stablizers
>muh functional strength
Ask yourselves, what is the most physically strenuous thing that you do to function on a day to day basis? Could you do it before getting swole?

Don't try to pick up a fucking washing machine and you won't get hurt by your "muscle imbalances". Use common sense.
