tips for canceling gym membership

>>39461770
Have you told them about your circumstances?

Damn, that really sucks.

Is it a big corporate tier franchise gym? if so, the refund probably wont happen.

just tell them you're moving and pick a place where the gym chain doesn't have any gyms so they don't transfer your membership to it

not yet. thought i'd get some opinions or ideas on here first...

>>39461786
yeah, there's a bunch here in my state.

does anyone have any easy, not super embarrassing ways to get banned from the gym? maybe that's an easy way out haha

>>39461786
Yeah, this is what I'm getting at.

Most private gym owners aren't robots, they'll probably let you slide.

To be fair, if I ran a gym, i'd probably ban any and all kinds of powerlifting/olympic lifting.


Honestly, the only time I'd allow PL and OLy lifting is if I was some really well off guy that didn't give a fuck about having to replace shit and repair things all the time and just ran the gym for the love of it.

Profit wise......prob not in your best interest to increase the likelihood of your shit needing replacing.

kys my man, kys

i don't see why they'd care. it says in the contract that you use all equipment with the knowledge that you could injure yourself.

fake your death

A lot of gyms don't have rubber plates or diddly areas so once you get past 1pl8 they start getting nervous about their floor and shitting on you.

Even more have them banned after some lunkhead who's retarded enough to only do half the lift starts dropping them

>A lot of gyms don't have rubber plates or diddly areas

So, not gyms?

I fucking hate this thing where places will have like 30 treadmills and yoga classes and shit, but maybe one rack of dumbbells that go up to 5kg and no other weights and other strength stuff.

Feels mad, man.

My gym doesn't have didgeridoo areas or oly platforms but the weight lifting area is all some kind of a rubbery type flooring. I've seen guys regularly pulling 5+ plates. My biggest gripe is only 1 squat rack.

That's a pretty heavy-handed contract, most of them let you out if YOU move, and i've even doctored up leases in other states to get out of memberships this way.

If that's really what the contract says, you aren't going to get some top secret advice here, so just talk to your gym and see if they can help you out.

If your in the United States they legally have to have a relocation out. I ran gyms for 5 years.
